Because after 6 months or so of one-a-week rehearsal/practice, and one actual gig, the Guitarist has decided to quit.
So, We're left with a Drummer, a Vocalist and a Bass Guitarist, looking for someone to carry on up the not charts...
Back in the day, you'd put an ad on the "Band Board" of a music shop, but they would usually just be old/faded bits of cardboard.
Nowadays, there are internet sites where people advertise, but it seems it's either "Tribute" acts or again ads that have been there forever.
Anyone know anyone that thinks they're Johnny Marr, and is 55 or thereabouts, and wants a go? Failing that, where's a good place to advertise?

I'd draw the line at clowns. Timewasters, well...
I'll have a look at Gumtree, yes.
― Mark G, Monday, 12 June 2017 20:16 (one year ago) Permalink
I did put an ad on Gumtree, and got what sounded like a spot-on one, who said "Send me some tracks, and we'll do a rehearsal room session" So I did, and he promptly never replied again, not even "No Thanks".
Sounds like one of those Timewasters..
Then again, he didn't have the session then go yeah yeah and then fail to turn up and that.
In any case, any more suggestions/ideas, I'm all ears.

Craigslist then..

Where do you rehearse Mark? Are your aims recording or gigging or what?
I am 55 and can pass for J.Marr on a good day. Might be a stretch to commit to anything out of London but I'd be interested to hear your stuff.
― Dr.C, Monday, 3 July 2017 11:45 (one year ago) Permalink
Ah, you'd be a shoe-in absolutely.
I'd also be interested in hearing our stuff - unfortunately our Guitarist quit without us knowing our first gig (with *this* lineup) would be our last.
We have one song recorded, it's not me singing but I don't sound that different to their orig dude: https://www.bandmix.co.uk/thesubtitles/0

Hmm, that didn't work.
OK, here: https://www.bandmix.co.uk/thesubtitles/
"Walk Away"
Ignore the other one, I refused to sing it and the band said it's OK, they hate it as well.

Still nowt.

Hereabouts most such things are handled by Craigslist, but I have had mixed results.
I want to put up a sign on our rehearsal space that says "leave your emu at the door."

We might have one!
Will report back in two weeks.

two weeks! ahem...
The new guitarist was a "techie" type - into Muse, MBV and so on.
We tried him for a couple of rehearsals, we all liked him as a person but ...
Anyway, the Bass guy and the drummer quit, so that was the end of that.
― Mark G, Friday, 1 February 2019 12:10 (three months ago) Permalink
Sorry to hear that, Mark =(
Maybe time to invest an RC-300 and a drum machine?
I'm down to jam, but I'm pretty sure we're not even close.

Remembrance and Identity through Movement: a Study of Memoir
van der Grinten, Heather
MetadataShow full item record
The exploration of my identity as a senior dance major at F&M began with an idea to hold a dance concert in a quiet place, away from the expanse of the proscenium stage, where people would gather and remember what it felt like to experience the life of another. Months of choreography and conversations manifested itself in the unframed self: moving exhibitions, a site-specific dance performance, held in the Curriculum Gallery of The Phillips Museum of Art of Thursday March 26 and Friday March 27, 2009. An evening-length performance of about 50 minutes in length comprised five pieces that investigated the theme of identity and remembrance. The details explained in this paper give insight into some of my decisions that resulted in the performances in the gallery.

Bank deposit alternatives
The current low interest rate environment is obviously great news for borrowers and mortgage holders, but obviously less so for savers and investors.
Recent reports confirm that deposits held by Irish households are at their highest ever, a massive €94 billion, despite deposit rates being at historically low levels and every indication that the low interest rate/low inflation cycle is due to continue for the foreseeable future.
A recent article in the Irish Times confirms deposit rates offered to Irish savers are the lowest in Europe at 0.18%, compared to 1.65% in the Netherlands.
However, there are low risk and/or capital guaranteed alternatives, so why not talk to us today and allow us provide, simple, cost effective solutions for you and your family.

It's working! Going to the gym is working! Last night I wore a tank top to the gym and as I was going through my arms workout I was seeing MUSCLES in the mirror. Muscles! And the jiggly arm is on its way out! Well, hopefully. Although I am sure a little jiggle is going to remain. A little jiggle is alright. Earth quakes as I wave to someone are not. Jiggly Arm Syndrome (Or, JNS.) Stop The Pandemic.
We have been eating pretty good also, if I do say so myself. I have been (for the most part) making nutritional, homemade dinners every night. Besides that one time last week we had pizza. Oh……fuck. And we had McDonald's on Sunday night. BUT I did find this new machine at the gym…and I can burn 350 calories in FIFTEEN MINUTES. Take that, bubble butt and supersize fries.
And good lord, the ladies at the gym. Some of them look like they haven't eaten a double cheeseburger – ever. Some of them look like they would kick my ass in about 3 seconds. Some of them wear clothes to the gym that are SCARIER than this ensemble, if you can imagine.
Some of them can run for an hour on the treadmill and not sweat an ounce, stepping off the machine with a full face of make up and their iPod's blaring "MY HUMPS! MY HUMPS MY HUMPS MY HUMPS!"
Meanwhile I'm usually looking like I just came out of a dunk tank after ten minutes on the elliptical and panting like I've just run the NYC marathon. And groaning like I just finished three Big Mac's.

As I set out in my Storme
A set of wheels I was sure to trust
I ventured off to unknown lands
On a mission handed off to me
By none other than our mother earth
It was a journey where my Tata Safari was put to test!
The night was dark and the roads were stony
But the beast with me had no reason to worry
It urged me to move on, for no task was difficult
For the Varicor engine the Storme boasted off!
|image source: http://blog.sanguinebio.com/
Soon clouds appeared and the stillness was gone
Thunderous clapping was heard, a challenge by the mighty Lord!
My Storme was being welcomed to a game of wet rocks
|image source: tatasafari.com
No treacherous path was too risky to cross
Wet roads, muddy lands, come hail or snow storm.
Through the jungles galore we carried on
Soon to be blocked by none other than
The jungle king, who ruled these lands
He roared ahead as we stopped in our track
The engine growled back, the competition was strong
But finally he bowed down as if to say
"Oh master! I am sorry to have blocked your way."
|image source: nationalgeographic.om
We neared a river, the jungles were left behind
Swish swashed through the water
This was my land that I had conquered
A small valley ahead almost flying we crossed
I knew the suspension was great no doubt!
|image source: tatasafari.com
Soon it was time for us to rest
The lands of the forgotten just lay ahead
The sun had just awoken from its sleep
Rays of hope shone bright as the sky donned an orange glow
Green lands of fortune welcomed us
There were butterflies and flowers all around
My Storme had made me win this challenge
A journey of the unknown was complete
We were standing at the brink of fortune
And not a bone in me had tired
Thanks to the comfortable plush seats!
|image source: tatasafari.com
It was now time to thank my Storme Explorer
A powerful beast, a true explorer that set me free
Faced all terrain with no mercy.
To all good times ahead I cheer!
With you my Storme I will always excel
I am Explorer - I Storme Ahead!
I am Explorer - I Storme Ahead!

An early look at the 2020 presidential contenders
Matthew Cavanaugh/Getty Images
With the midterm elections over, speculation has already turned to who is likely to make a presidential bid in 2020.
The field of potential Democratic candidates is crowded, while no Republican has emerged so far as likely to challenge President Donald Trump.
The race has recently seen some big developments, with Sen. Elizabeth Warren launching an exploratory committee, and rumors that other Democrat figures are about to enter the race as well.
Some predicted candidates like attorney Michael Avenatti and former Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick of Massachusetts, have dropped out.
Here are the most likely 2020 presidential contenders.
Elizabeth WarrenAP/Charles Krupa
The Massachusetts Senator has announced that she is formally considering a presidential campaign, and has made her first moves on the campaign trail by announcing a four-city trip to Iowa in January.
Donald TrumpChip Somodevilla/Getty Images
Trump filed the paperwork to run in 2020 just hours after he was inaugurated in 2016.
No Republicans have announced their intention to run against him, and Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in October that he believes it would be a "waste of time" for any to try.
Joe BidenAP Photo/Andrew Harnik
Biden said that he is talking with his family about whether he will run.
Biden fueled speculation when he said at the start of December that he believes he is "the most qualified person in the country to be president."
"The issues that we face as a country today are the issues that have been in my wheelhouse, that I've worked on my whole life," he said.

It has been predicted New York will experience a mild winter this year and the early part of 2015. That means less shoveling and less wear and tear on your heating system. But, even a mild winter day/night can be brutal if you live in a drafty home. The following are a few tips on how to winterize your home before winter.
Boiler and Furnace Maintenance Tip
Avoid waiting until the cold winter months to winterize your condo or apartment building. Winterizing your property in advance can save you from costly repairs and annoyed tenants. Make sure your heating appliances can operate during the winter. There is nothing worse than experiencing a cold shower in the dead of winter or worse, a cold apartment.
Lower Your Thermostat Setting
If your maintenance department controls your heating system, a programmable thermostat system can save you a lot of money in the long-run. Since we're expecting a mild winter, you can save money on your heating bills by lowering your thermostat system to coincide with the weather temperature.
Building Exterior
Make sure you keep up with your building's exterior. A well-kept exterior will help guard against the cold winter elements. Thoroughly inspect your building and check for leakage or any kind of damage. Use caulking to the windows and doors that need to be sealed.
Clear Drainage and Gutters
Remove leaves and other debris that could clog up your drainage systems. Doing this important step will help prevent leaks and problems with snow accumulation during the winter.
These are just a handful of important steps to take to winterize your building. A property management company can save you time and money when it comes to winterization. For more information on how Metropolitan Pacific Properties can help get your property up to speed for the upcoming winter, give us a call today at: (718) 626-4400.

Help me complete an on-line learning course with a fun Excel project - Macros, Dashboard, a little VBA.
Budget $30-250 USD
I am looking for assistance with an excel project that is part of an on-line course I am taking just for fun and my own personal learning. I already have a rough structure of what my vision looks like for this project but need help 1) Suggesting ideas to accomplish the objectives and 2) Putting in some of the legwork to construct the spreadsheet as I suddenly have very limited time for this. We will work collaboratively.
Please see the requirements for the course project below:
Project Overview
Wallstreet Investments Ltd. is a stockbroker specializing in investments for wealthy private clients. Clients expect regular reports on how their portfolio of investments is performing. You are required to develop a flexible spreadsheet to assist in the real-time tracking of the value of a portfolio of shares held by clients of Wallstreet Investments.
Project Requirements
Upon opening an account with your firm clients provide an initial payment of at least $100,000 which will be split between cash and the recommended portfolio of shares.
Your spreadsheet should contain a list of shares held by the client, the number purchased and the original purchase price.
As an environmentally focused investment firm – Wallstreet Investments splits investments in the portfolio into Green and non-Green stocks (e.g. petro chemical vs. windfarm) and ensures clients that at least 40% of their portfolio will be invested in Green stock at any one time. Stocks when chosen for addition to the portfolio are deemed "Green" or "non-Green" by the user.
Multiple shares may be purchased in a given stock at different times and for different prices. The current valuation of all the shares owned in that particular company should be represented by the spreadsheet. Current valuations should be sourced from a suitable website (MSN, Bloomberg, NASDAQ etc.)
It should be easy for users of the spreadsheet to indicate that a stock has been purchased and the purchase price. Similarly, it should be easy to sell all or part of a portfolio at the current market price. The spreadsheet should track transactions and the current portfolio and its valuation.
The spreadsheet should present a dashboard summarizing the portfolio of shares that the client has invested in. It should show the performance of the portfolio against standard market indices (FTSE 100 and the NASDAQ for example) for the period in which the fund was invested. The dashboard should show the proportion of Green and non-Green assets in the portfolio.
It should be possible to view this summary in a browser window and e-mail the summary to the client.
Upon completion this project will demonstrate most of the skills I learned in the course, including: 1. Constructing macros the operate from on screen "buttons", 2. Simple dashboards that can be created with the "Charts" function. 3. Query the web for daily updated prices on stocks and market indices and use those prices when buying, selling, and reporting on the stocks. 4. Emailing a hyperlink to a client and making it viewable in a web browser.
I know this project seems a little complicated, but results can be very flexible, and it really just needs to work and incorporate various functionality. It should be fun.
I will decide on a freelancer to work with me based on 1. Price (flat fee or hourly with a cap on hours committed), and 2. Skill level of the freelancer - demonstrated to me via an explanation of how you would approach this project and execute on the functionality. Examples of past projects that might relate to this would also be helpful if available.
Questions? Feel free to contact me!

…but now, you don't know what to do next.
You feel as if you don't know who you are anymore after giving yourself away for so long.
You know things could be different if you could just get over the gut-wrenching feeling of disconnection from yourself and from life, but you don't know where to start or how to take the first step.
If this is you, then you've come to the right place.
Rebuilding your life and your inner identity after narcissistic abuse can feel overwhelming and scary.
But it doesn't have to be!
What if higher levels of healing and rebuilding your life could happen quicker than you imagined,allowing you the peace and independence to begin realizing the happiness you thought was impossible?
Here's a secret: It can.
Don't shake your head (I can sense your head-shake).
Does any of this sound familiar?...
Feeling like you're going crazy because it seems you're doomed to live a life of confusion because you don't even know who you are anymore. You're throwing all your time into staying busy and avoiding the work of creating your new life because you think the concept of happiness is a bunch of poppy-cock. Heck, you may even feel you can keep the narcissist in your life and manage their disorder in ways that won't be "too painful".
Unsure how to begin living your life differently like the people you keep reading about on the internet. You believe a different life might be possible, but how do you let go of all you've been through? You feel like you've tried every strategy on Google, but haven't experienced the expansion or growth that other abuse survivors seem to find so easily.
Losing your motivation. You worry that there is just too much effort involved in rebuilding and you don't think you have it in you to do the work. You find yourself asking, "how am I supposed to take the next steps and start a new life when I can't get over the confusion and pain…?" You're worried you won't be able to stick it out long enough to make a real difference.
Frustrated by all the conflicting information. You're sick of wasting time trying to research how to make your new life happen. You keep hearing the same lame-sauce advice. You want something that will work without having to second-guess if you've made the right choice.
Did you raise your hand to any (or all) of the above? Good. You are in the right spot!
But, here's the challenge...
Nothing changes if nothing changes. Meaning, if you want to hit your recovery and new life goals and create the life you've dreamed of...then you need to do something DIFFERENT than what you've already been doing.
In my course, Beyond No Contact, you'll learn how to:
...and much more.
Yep. For Real...
I'm proud to share with you a method that not only healed my life but has healed thousands of other people's lives around the globe.
I created The Essential Break Free Bootcamp after seeing seven different therapists, which not only failed to offer relief from my symptoms of narcissistic abuse, I felt further invalidated and more confused than ever. Most of the modalities and self-help out there simply don't provide the solution for lasting relief.
If you've recently discovered the need to break free from a painful relationship and are wondering what to do to rebuild your life, you're going to need help.
Many people are led to believe by their practitioners that only meds and endless therapy is the answer...but those who follow this regimen are often still stuck years down the road.
My students have gone from struggling with lasting trauma to learning how to self-soothe, feel confident & hopeful, and implement healthy boundaries in their relationships (without wasting money on the wrong therapy).
They are seeing amazing results they didn't think were possible.
This can be your reality, too. And you can feel confident that you're getting access to a healing method that's backed by science and case studies. In fact, therapists are referring their own clients to this program!

There are a lot of sayings about the benefits of persistence, so I won't repeat them here :) But my client, Martha N., has been a good example of using that persistence to not only get in shape, but stay in shape. Every time I spoke with Martha, she was full of determination. Every now and then, she would ask me a question that i could answer for her which was great, because otherwise I was sitting here thinking, "does she even need a coach!??!"
Martha has had to deal with one common problem among many people who make the decision to get in shape: unsupportive family and friends. You hear about this a lot: people will make fun of us for our healthy eating. They'll make fun of us for keeping to our strenuous workouts. They'll make fun of us, even in very mean ways, because we make them feel bad about themselves. We don't mean to do that, in fact, people like Martha and myself are here to help and encourage (Martha would make a GREAT coach, but don't tell her I told you that, ok?)
Martha has acheived these results with the help of BeachBody programs Hip Hop Abs, TurboFire, and TurboJam
When she sent me the picture recently, she added:
"Here is an updated pic of my progress please do share if anyone needs inspiration this is a 6 yr journey. Goes to show if you are committed anything is possible even for a long period of time." - Martha N.
I do hope that if you feel like you have a long road ahead that you take Martha's advice and just stick to it.
Here's Martha giving 3 tips on how she keeps snacking at bay... told ya she'd make a good coach!

By Sister Mercedes Torres, O.P.
Before I begin telling you my unexpected path to religious life, I would like to lay out my Brooklynite facts: My parents are from the Dominican Republic. This results in strong bonds with my extended family in Brooklyn and in the Dominican Republic.
I spent my childhood living between Bushwick and Cypress Hills. I grew up as a parishioner of St. Martin of Tours parish, Bushwick, and I attended schools bearing names that began in "P.S." and "I.S." in Ridgewood, Queens.
Religious life never crossed my mind as a possibility until months prior to entering the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist in Ann Arbor, Mich. I was raised in a culturally rich Dominican household where Catholicism was intertwined with extremely close and highly valued family ties. My family has been intricately linked with our parish for decades. Several parishioners are either extended family or families closely associated with my own. This results in making each Sunday Mass like a mini-family reunion usually ending at an aunt's house eating Dominican breakfast fare through the remainder of the morning (and sometimes into the afternoon).
The faith became a truly beautiful cultural experience, connected with my love for my family and my heritage. The faith-life at my parish was both familiar and vibrant. And my most beautiful examples of faith were my grandparents in the Dominican Republic. Despite all of this, I distanced myself from that faith over the course of growing up in Brooklyn. Additionally, my parents' emphasis on education led to my growing up with little personal investment in my Catholic faith, while my whole focus was elsewhere.
I received a scholarship to attend boarding prep school in New Jersey and later went to college in Los Angeles, Calif. I delved into my academic surroundings. The more classics I read and secular interpretations I learned, the further I drifted from any practice of the faith.
After college, I began working at a non-profit organization with offices in Union Square, which involved regular travel to Latin America. It really could not get any better, or so I tried to convince myself. The truth is that in leaving my faith behind, I surrounded myself with living a "successful" worldly life and began to feel trapped within it.
Being back in New York after college also brought me back to living directly with and near family. Through the beautiful witness of several young adult youth ministers throughout New York, and in a most special way through one of my cousins, I had a powerful encounter with Christ on a retreat in Brooklyn on Divine Mercy Sunday.
This led me to immediately join my cousin in ministry, which included working with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal and the Sisters of Life. Their witness of young, joyful, consecrated love of Christ as religious suddenly began to correspond with an unexpected call that God put on my own heart.
What began as a gentle lifting in my heart at the thought of religious life soon became a pressing desire and I had no idea where to start. Though they were each beautiful communities living religious life fully and joyfully, I did not feel called to either the Franciscan Sisters or to the Sisters of Life. My uncertainty cleared when I met the Dominican Sisters of Mary at the March for Life in Washington, D.C.
Directly after meeting the Sisters, I contacted the community and attended a discernment retreat in Ann Arbor three weeks later. On this retreat, God made it abundantly clear to me that He had made my heart to love Him, and to love others in Him, though consecrating myself to Him in this religious community. And I could not fathom any response but "yes."
After speaking with the vocations director, I received the application paperwork to apply to enter that August.
There is no greater joy than accepting the invitation, the challenge even, to love God more each day. He calls me to draw nearer to Him every day in my community as His spouse. This is religious life: an invitation to love.

text: A few months ago, I realized I didn't really enjoy my vacation time that much. Instead of getting outside and doing something fun, I found myself chilling in front of the television and trying to figure out what to do with my free time. Fortunately, a friend of mine mentioned joining a local sports league and trying out a few new hobbies. I was nervous at first, but I knew that she was right. I started playing in a sports league, and it was a great time. I was able to lose a little weight and enjoy the great outdoors. Check out this blog for more information about recreation and sports.

This last couple of months have been a hard time for me. When you choose to travel a particular path, often there will be moments when your devotion will be tested. You watch other people question your motives or actions, and wonder if what you are doing is indeed the correct way forward. Then you look at everything from a distance and begin to understand the more significant path you've trodden, and suddenly things become very clear indeed. I've watched a quantum shift of interest in my work in the last few months, and actually that's no bad thing, because now I begin to understand that, at least for some people, Warcraft will never be anything more than the lover who seduced them and then left when it became obvious they were unable to change. To truly understand the allure of this IP, you have to grasp how culpable you are in the process.
If you're never going to commit to anything, gaming is never going to make you happy.
However, that's not just the problem currently, because if it were as simple as just losing yourself in something for hours on end, all gaming would be addiction. If I ask you how many hours a day you've wasted to mobile gaming or console titles, for instance, would you even consider them against a title that demands interaction with other people to begin with? For some, playing with others is the only reason why Warcraft still exists as a diversion: Guilds hold this entire structure together, organised raiding and play are what Blizzard has used to create from scratch and build three new IPs. Let us not forget that without Warcraft's financial clout and rich back story, neither Heroes or Hearthstone would exist. The irony that Overwatch came from the ashes of the game that was supposed to succeed Warcraft should not be lost on a lot of you either. Azeroth may no longer be the major wage earner in the family, but it is abundantly apparent who wears the trousers in the relationship here.
Today, therefore I ask myself why there's still so much anger and bile towards this title, almost on a minute by minute basis. Let me demonstrate: I get into a conversation with someone yesterday who is nothing to do with my immediate circle, and indeed (I thought) nothing to do with gaming. When it comes up in conversation I write about Warcraft, the person laughs at me. Normally I have to explain what the game involves, unless I'm talking to an ex-player, and then it goes one of two ways. Laughter means they've decided I'm an idiot, and as it transpires that's exactly where we ended up. Then, there are the people who launch into the angry, hate-filled rants about how the game destroyed their life or that of a friend and it's roughly akin to some kind of infectious disease. Mostly, if you've played this game and left, you're either completely capable of disconnecting from it like a grown up or it totally destroys your existence. There does not seem to be any halfway. I really cannot, in good conscience, blame the makers of Warcraft for such extreme reactions. This is down to people, in most cases, patently failing to live their lives with an appropriate sense of proportion.
Here's where we are now: social media has allowed players to use individual indignation to a point where it has somehow become more potent that at any other time I can remember, and this hatred is now a weapon. Most don't care who it gets used on, and seem to just continually throw it at anyone and everybody who won't play their version of the game. The game itself has now fractured into so many sub-cliques and varieties of 'correct' that it is frankly impossible to separate what's right beyond a basic set of tenets: having one reason why you don't like something is no longer enough, for starters. In fact, if you're not prepared to stand up and fight your corner until your last breath, you're clearly not a true fan to begin with. It doesn't help that people are playing the game in many various states. It is hard to complain at people wanting to live their lives in Vanilla when there's a portion of the population existing in Alpha right now. The game itself has fractured into distinct and separate portions that are being played by others, all who have perfectly legitimate reasons for wanting to remain there.
The 'real' game however remains, and is still vastly popular beyond measure.
The difference for many people with Live is that it isn't being played now, but will be when Alpha vanishes, or when Vanilla is integrated back into the game plan. The backbone of this game remains as strong and unshakeable as it has always been, or I wouldn't be paid to write about it, and people wouldn't spend their lives complaining about how Warcraft destroyed the MMO genre forever. It's still there and although you're not there every day, I still am. It remains intractable and and continues to generate ridiculous amounts of cash and frankly, you could take a lunch break that lasted all damn day and nothing would alter. The only sure fire way this IP ever dies, once and for all, is when Blizzard decide to pull the plug on it and that ain't happening any time soon, trust me. Therefore, you have a choice, whiny, entitled meat bags of the Internets. You can stay, or you can leave, but if you choose the latter I'd really very strongly suggest you do that and stop using the game as a crutch or a demon, because it is neither. If you truly wish to free yourself from the thrall of this IP, stop using it as the benchmark. Take that cutting comment about how the game defames everybody else out of your profile spiel.
The ex-players of this game are the biggest blight on the community by a very long way. It is they who are responsible for nearly all of the hatred and bad feeling, and many of the more questionable business decisions I've seen suggested in the last six months. What you guys really need to do, as a matter of some priority, is let it go. Stop grieving and griefing in short order. Yes, we know how butthurt you really are, and now it's getting that nobody actually cares. If you want to be taken seriously? Stop blaming pixels for ruining your lives.
That's nobody's fault but your own.

The craziest moment of Geoff Gray's whirlwind year in the NFL came on the day the Cleveland Browns signed him off the practice roster of the New York Jets.
It was in Week 15 and Gray was just finishing up a voluntary workout at the Jets practice facility. The offensive lineman from Winnipeg had been in New York for 14 weeks, after signing with the Jets a day after getting cut by the Green Bay Packers at the end of training camp.
It all changed quickly on that Tuesday.
"It was hectic, in the actuality of it," Gray said Wednesday. "When I got out of the shower and looked at my phone there was a voicemail. It basically said 'Cleveland wants to sign you to the active roster today, so pack your things.'
"That was probably around 11:30 and by 2 o'clock I was driving to Cleveland and I was there that night. There wasn't really a chance to think about how 'Cleveland has signed me to the active roster, that's amazing.' It was like, 'Oh crap, I need to figure out what I can put in my car in the next two hours.'"
It was quite a year for the former Manitoba Bisons star. Though he was passed over in the NFL draft, he signed a priority free agent deal with the Packers the very same day.
A couple weeks later he was taken in the first round, eighth overall, by his home town Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the CFL draft.
He made it to the final day of training camp in Green Bay and was invited to sign a pracrice-roster agreement with the Packers but chose a similar offer from the Jets, believing there would be a better opportunity for him there.
Then he found out what life on a practice roster can be like.
"You can't really get too settled in anywhere," said Gray, who is back home in Winnipeg and finishing up his mechanical engineering degree at the University of Manitoba. "With being on the practice roster, any team can sign you at any time and that happened to me late in the season. By the time you get to the 10th, 13th, 14th week, it kind of comes as a bit of surprise."
The move to Cleveland turned out to be a good one. By rule Gray had to be placed on the 53-man roster and he stayed there for the final three weeks of the season. He didn't actually get into a game, but he did collect a full NFL paycheque.
He also signed a two-year contract, which means he'll go back to the Brown training camp this season with a chance to make the team.
"It was a bit of a whirlwind experience with moving around between three teams," the 23-year-old said. "But I'm really happy with where I ended up, in Cleveland, and I think I'm in a real good position going forward for next year."
While the Browns went 0-16 last season, Gray saw some positives in signing with a re-building squad. Interestingly, there is even a Winnipeg connection to the Browns as the offensive line coach is Bob Wylie, who previously held that position with the Blue Bombers.
Gray did not know Wylie while he was in Winnipeg (as recently as 2016), but said the coach saw him play when he was with the Bisons.
"It's early yet but the owner made a change with the general manager (John Dorsey replaced Sashi Brown), obviously with the best of intentions," Gray said. "You can't necessarily expect an instant turnaround right from Day 1.
"I'm by no means a football analyst — that's above my pay grade — but you can't fix your team through one year of free agency. It will take a few years. You need a build through the draft and through developing young players. You can't turn things around just by throwing money at everything."
Gray said he has "improved a ton" in his one season in the NFL and believes he has a future as a regular. But he remains open to the idea of returning to the CFL and playing for the Bombers if things don't work out.
"The Bombers are definitely a team I would be happy playing for if the opportunity arises," Gray said. "I talked with Mike O'Shea before the draft and it's a team environment that I would enjoy a lot. It would be nice playing at home.
"But you can't make any predictions. It's year by year and week by week with football because so much can change."
He ought to know.
Tough to bet against Patriots: Gray
Geoff Gray's choice of teams to cheer for in the Super Bowl doesn't come from any special knowledge he gained from spending a year on practice rosters in the NFL.
This one is more of a personal nature.
"I've got a couple of friends who are pretty strong Patriots fans so it would be nice to see them unhappy," Gray laughed.
So now we know who he is cheering for but that doesn't mean he thinks the Philadelphia Eagles will beat the New England Patriots on Sunday.
"If I had to bet on it I'd put my money on the Patriots but I wouldn't put a lot of stock in my opinion. Past events are the best indicator of future events. They're tough to bet against for sure."
Regardless, Gray is just looking forward to kicking back and watching some football.
"I'm going to sit back and enjoy eating some food and be a little removed from the situation," he said.

It is with disbelief and outrage that we read the Sunday Leader article of 13th April titled 'New Anti Rape Laws Proposed', where the Minister of Child Development and Women's Affairs Tissa Karaliyadde has said that proposals on new laws to respond to the large and growing number of rape cases will ensure that rapists are bound by law to marry the victim if she gives her consent to court. This news report indicated that this proposal will be forwarded to the Ministry of Justice for necessary action. Neither Minister Karaliyadde nor the Ministry of Justice or their officials have refuted this report.
It is truly appalling that the government which has publicly stated its commitment to end acts of violence against women and its Minister in charge of women and children's concerns thinks a solution to rape is that a woman or child victim/survivor marries the perpetrator of what our law describes as a grave criminal offence. This is tantamount to legitimizing acts of rape and giving society the message that women must pay the price for rape, even by marrying the perpetrator of this serious crime. This proposed law will grant impunity to perpetrators, who instead of being punished now have the option of 'marrying' the women or girl they abuse. This in effect encourages rapists to continue with their sexual violence against women and girls. There is plenty of documented evidence that when women do marry rapists it is because the marriage is a forced marriage contracted due to family pressure. The woman or girl has to endure an abusive relationship which often ends in domestic violence and suicide. This is why the Committee on the Women's Convention (Committee on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women) has consistently asked countries to repeal laws that permit such marriages. Morocco abolished a similar law in January 2014 after a public outcry over the suicide of a girl who was forced to marry her rapist
Minister Karaliyadde is on record to have stated in Parliament that there were 2,150 rape cases reported in 2012 and 4,317 rapes reported in the period 2009-2011. The Minister admitted he had no information about the age of the victims or how many cases had actually resulted in convictions. If the Minister did look for this information he would have realized that the vast majority of rape cases before the courts rarely result in convictions due to weaknesses in law enforcement. He should as a responsible Minister review the implementation of current laws and ensue enabling conditions for their strict enforcement – eliminating delays in the law, the current practice of suspended sentencing and adversarial, gender insensitive legal and law enforcement processes that prevent women from obtaining justice.
The Minister's lack of knowledge about the causes and consequences of the violent crime of rape and Sri Lankan commitment under national and international law to prevent and prosecute it is equally astounding. Does he not know that women of all ages, including girls: infants and toddlers and elderly women are victims of rape in Sri Lanka? Recent media reports have highlighted rape of tourists, a subject included in travel advisories to tourists. How does he propose to implement his law on mandatory marriage to a rapist? Is a government constantly referring to family values, admitting that 'marriage' is a convenient institution that can legally hide crimes of rape, and legalize sexual violence within marriage? What does he propose to do with rapists who are themselves married or who rape multiple times? Is he proposing a new law that will permit polygamy?
We wish to remind the Minister that his personal views on women's and girls' right to equality and protection from violence are irrelevant for public policy. Article 12 of our Constitution incorporates a standard of gender equality and non-discrimination on the ground of a person's sex. Sri Lanka, recognizing its contribution in improving the lives of women by giving equal access to health and education, and desiring further progress, became a State Party to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 1981. In 1993 it adopted a policy statement known as the Women's Charter and which reinforces the Convention standards on gender equality between men and women. In 1995 the Sri Lankan Parliament amended the Penal Code to ensure enhanced sentencing for the crime of rape. The Sri Lankan government has binding obligations to implement our Constitution, National Human Rights Action Plan (NHRAP) and the Women's Rights Convention, CEDAW. The President is now chair of CHOGM and is committed to the core Commonwealth values that have been incorporated in the Declaration of CHOGM. The President has a responsibility to ensure that these values on gender equality are upheld by his administration.
We have in the past had several women cabinet ministers such as Renuka Herath, the late Srimani Athulathmudali, Amara Piyaseeli Rathnayake, and Sumeda Jayasena who took their role and responsibility as holders of cabinet office seriously. They tried to work towards achieving the standards of gender equality and improve the lives of women and men. Many Sri Lankan men, including professionals and politicians have supported initiatives to achieve gender equality in our society. It is a shocking indication of the breakdown in values of holders of public office, that the first male minister of Women's Affairs can make public statements which undervalue Sri Lankan women.
Minister Karaliyadde has in the recent past made statements that abuse and seek to humiliate identified groups of women, including women in responsible positions of leadership within his own Party. Some of these statements have been repeated by other holders of high public office. These statements make it abundantly clear that the Minister and other holders of public office are ignorant of their responsibilities, to respect these values on gender equality in their public life. On the 28th November 2013, 168 individuals and representatives of a range of civil society organizations made a call for the immediate resignation of Minister Karaliyadde from the office he holds in the Ministry of Women's Affairs and Child Development for sexist and abusive statements he made in public including in Parliament.
We reiterate this demand and call for Minister Karaliyadde's immediate resignation or removal from the Cabinet office he holds. We demand that a gender sensitive Minister is appointed immediately to the post of Women's Affairs. Mr. Karaliyadde's gender insensitive statements and irresponsible behavior indicate that he can no longer be permitted to function as head of a Ministry whose core purpose he undervalues and publicly denounces.
We also call upon all local, foreign and UN agencies that support projects of the Ministry of Child Development and Women's Affairs to review their partnership with this Ministry, and demand accountability in regard to promoting gender equality standards that bind our government. We call upon all citizens to recognize the growing denial of women's safety and security in the family and the community and the lack of effective leadership from government in addressing violence against women and girls. We must make this an issue on which we hold accountable all those who we vote into public office.

About 18 miles west of Newcastle upon Tyne, lies the historic village of Corbridge – a true Northumberland gem. Having lived in Newcastle all my life, and having driven through Corbridge several times, I couldn't believe I'd never taken the time to actually stop and explore this quaint village and its rich history. You could quite easily spend a whole day just wandering through the streets of Corbridge, popping into all the wonderful independent and artisanal shops. It does help that there are numerous historic pubs dotted around the village, each encapsulating the pastel-coloured, homely charm of Corbridge. During our stay at Hesleyside Huts, we took the opportunity of driving to Corbridge to discover its charm for the very first time!
Here's what we got up to:
River Walk
We were pleasantly surprised to find a sizeable Village Car Park on the south side of the River Tyne, where you can park up for the day for free! This car park is conveniently located by Corbridge Bridge – a historic village monument reputed to have been laid by the Romans, which has thankfully survived many floods over the years. This proud monument stands over the glorious River Tyne – the river walk from Corbridge is absolutely beautiful, and on the sunny day I visited over Easter, we saw countless dog-walkers and families enjoying the spectacular views of Corbridge from the banks of the Tyne.
Corbridge Roman Town
Corbridge is absolutely steeped in history, which is always a winner for a History graduate like me! During the period of Roman occupation in this area of Britain, Corbridge was known to be a bustling supply base, where food and provisions were guaranteed to be found. The Corbridge Roman Town museum makes this period of history accessible for all ages – you can walk through the ancient streets of Corbridge to get a feel for its Roman past and see the famous Corbridge Hoard and Corbridge Collection for yourself in the museum! Discover recovered artefacts from Roman Britain, and immerse yourself in the history of this village by walking down an ancient High Street. You'll find Corbridge Roman Town about 1/4 mile away from the Village Car Park by the river, or alternatively use the parking nearer the museum.
The Angel Inn
Although there are a vast number of pubs and inns to choose from in Corbridge, it would seem the most popular is The Angel Inn – I can certainly see why! If you walk straight up from Corbridge Bridge, you will come to The Angel of Corbridge at the top of the hill leading into the village. Once again, I was so impressed with how the buildings in this village maintain the pastel-coloured Corbridge theme – it gives the whole village a very distinct identity that you don't find in many other places. This lovely Coach House was built in 1529 and now serves as the go-to bed and breakfast, Sunday lunch restaurant and watering hole in Corbridge. The weather was absolutely fantastic when we visited Corbridge and so we were lucky enough to enjoy some drinks in the Beer Garden at the front of the inn – what a fantastic afternoon we had!
Wandering the Streets
As you walk around Corbridge, you can't help but be mesmerised by the quaint, cobbled streets and the stone-buildings with decorated fronts. Although I love my hometown of Newcastle, wandering the streets of Corbridge made me feel like I'd been transported to a completely different world – a world in which I'd love to settle down in in the future! As far back as the beginning of the 19th century, Corbridge has been well-known for being a shopper's paradise. You won't find the likes of Topshop and Zara in the centre of Corbridge though – you'll find something much better. Independent retailers, book stores and artisanal food producers line the streets of this village! Pop into Grants Bakery to sample some of the most splendid-looking sweet treats you'll ever come across, browse the shelves and literary wonders of the famous, award-winning Forum Books, not to forget Corbridge Antiques Centre: the Aladdin's Cave of this area of Northumberland.
Visiting places like Corbridge really make you appreciate the wonders of the villages and towns in Northumberland. If you're looking to enjoy a peaceful day of exploration, country-pub crawling and history, I couldn't recommend the village of Corbridge more. You won't be disappointed!

Figures in G.A.S.L.I.G.H.T. are organized into 10-figure units. Usually this consists of 8 extras and 2 main characters, but you can mix it up as you wish. Heroes, a special archetype of main character, are typically not in a unit and instead are independent figures.
Main characters, heroes and otherwise, are just that - the important personalities your game is going to revolve around. Think of them as the stars of your narrative. It is these main characters that drive some of the more amusing G.A.S.L.I.G.H.T. AARs around the Internet. They are an obvious hook for a campaign diary as well.
As for the extras, well, "extras" is a euphemism for "cannon fodder."
While the heroes and other main characters are clearly 1:1, it's not so cut and dried for the extras.
Read ten G.A.S.L.I.G.H.T.battle reports and you'll probably find ten different treatments of the same 10-figure units. When I first began using the rules, I called them squads or sometimes platoons, but treated them as 1:1 regardless.
The benefit of 1:1 is that all the figures can become characters in the narrative. Albeit, characters that die quickly.
Most recently, I've been treating 10 figures = 1 company, or around 1:20-1:30. At this scale, the extras function as the nameless, hapless, rabble they were meant to be.
Indeed, there is nothing in the rules that gives any hint as to what the intended scale is, if anything. So, feel free to call them whatever you prefer: squad, battalion, brigade, etc You could even mount extras with multi-figs per base to get the right look at the larger game scales (but just treat each base as a figure for combat and morale).
The often recommended starting force in G.A.S.L.I.G.H.T.is one 10-figure unit, one hero (a unit of one special figure) and one vehicle per side. Anyone can paint 11 figures and build a vehicle (or just use another 10-figure unit or single hero or a cavalry unit if you're not into the vehicles). If you're a solo gamer, that's just 24 figures and two vehicles.
Heck, the vehicles are optional. As are the heroes. Until my Helvetica campaign this year, I never fielded vehicles, artillery or heroes.
For the longest time I had only 23 Foreign Legion and 30 lizard men and some toy plastic dinosaurs and this was sufficient for me to fight many enjoyable encounters in the Venusian rain forests and lost world islands. I now have another 20 lizard men painted up and 24 Prussians in the mix, plus some sad, but functional vehicles, but they were all added over 4 or so years. Their absence never hindered my fun.
As someone who didn't enjoy painting much until recently, the modest figure requirement for good fun was a huge plus.
Some of my favorite outings involved only one T. Rex vs. one unit of French Foreign Legion.
Doesn't sound like fun?
Then you've never seen a single extra charging a T. Rex to engage it in hand-to-hand combat. Vive La Legion!

text: There were a few times when I didn't like this book at all, such as when it got a bit predictable, or a bit cheesy. The book does capture your attention however, and when it gets predictable its usually when something exciting is about to happen. This book has a smooth read and the plot is well laid out, so if Victoria Lamb finds a good topic for a second book I will most likely read it. Overall this book is pretty good and I would recommend it to anyone interested in this kind of book.

Skateboarders share faith through film
Faith and skateboarding movie hits Lexington
Sometimes, in the midst of a daring skateboard trick, Josh Roberts says, he might become "really scared." After all, scars and broken bones seem to come with time on a board.
But Roberts has a remedy for the fear.
"Jesus said to fear not, for he has overcome the world. Through him, I can be free," he said.
Roberts and a group of fellow Lexington skaters are sharing that message through a 35-minute film, Seek First, that will debut with a free showing at 9 p.m. Tuesday at the Kentucky Theatre.
The debut is timed to coincide with Go Skateboarding Day, a holiday created by the International Association of Skateboard Companies to promote the sport.
Cosmic skate shop, which sponsors Roberts and some of the other men involved with the film, will host an event, Cosmic Invasion, on June 21 at Woodland Park, with bands, a skate competition and more. The filmmakers hope attendees and others will make their way down to the film premiere after that.
Videos that show off cool skateboarding moves are popular among skateboarders.
"When I go home, what I do is watch skate videos," Roberts said.
But many of them are not exactly wholesome viewing, he said.
"The culture ... it's about drinking and it's about partying and it's about smoking weed," Roberts said.
He has set out to show that "this isn't the only way. I can be a skateboarder and I can follow Jesus."
The filmmakers also hope that the film will debunk some of the negative stereotypes about skaters.
"You don't have to be like the stereotypical punk (to enjoy skateboarding)," said Gideon Maki, who helped with the film. "You can love the Lord and look different."
The filmmakers also are having 1,000 copies of the DVD made to give away, and they hope that churches and other skateboarding ministries around the country will host viewing parties.
The project has been three years in the making.
Roberts, 25, said he first heard God calling him to make the film during a Christian conference in Atlanta 3 1/2 years ago.
When he got back, he bought a camera and was joined by fellow skaters Maki, Jonathan Wilson, Sam Mullins and Chris Smith, who works in the video production field.
The men are all affiliated with Lexington Skate Church, which meets at Woodland Park at 11 a.m. on Sundays. In addition to skating together, attendees share spiritual insights and have a potluck meal together.
There are usually about 10 people at the gatherings, which are held in members' houses during the winter months. Ages range from babies to 40-something.
Roberts said that by meeting at the park, they are able to speak to those who come there to skate.
"The goal is to be there in case they want to be there," he said.
Mullins is one of the newer members.
"I just recently got baptized," he said. "Christ has always been in my life, but I just strayed away from him."
Mullins said he wanted to be involved in the film to show "that you can go through a lot, you can come from a bad time in your life to a good thing."
The men, who have all skated since they were youngsters, have plenty of scars. Mullins broke his leg on a board about five years ago. Maki shows off the collarbone that protrudes where he broke it two years ago.
But they all said they keep doing it for the fun and the challenge, and as a form of self-expression.
Skateboarding might be the medium through which they spread their message of faith, but the men said they want to reach skaters and non-skaters alike with the film.
"It's the whole world that needs to know Jesus," Roberts said. "It's not just for skateboarders. It's for the world."

Olympian Links 4
The World Badminton Federation charged (and eventually disqualified) eight female players with "not using one's best efforts to win a match" and "conducting oneself in a manner that is clearly abusive or detrimental to the sport", after four Olympic doubles teams had attempted to "throw" matches to secure a more favourable draw later in the tournament.
The players involved in Tuesday's matches were China's world champions Wang Xiaoli and Yu ang, Indonesia's Greysia Polii and Meiliana Jauhari and two South Korean pairs – Jung Kyung-eun and Kim Ha-na, and Ha Jung-eun and Kim Min Jung.
Spectators at the Wembley Arena shouted abuse and jeered at the players amid farcical scenes as the teams deliberately sprayed shots and duffed serves into the net to concede points.
The state oil company is a key sponsor of Team indonesia. They announced their pride by saying: "Pertamina is very proud to be part of Indonesian Team in London 2012 Olympics through sponsorship support. Pertamina and entire Indonesian public certainly hope that Indonesia sport representatives will give their best in every matches (sic) without ever backing down."
Taufik Hidayat, who won the gold medal in the men's badmintion eight years ago, may have lost in the round of 16 to his arch-nemesis Lin Dan, the current world number one, but at least he tried.
Minutes after losing his encounter with Lin Dan, but before the disqualification was made official,, Taufik Hidayat told reporters that 'Shuttlegate' creates "a bad image for badminton. If they are going to be disqualified than I'm happy. It's for the sport. Sport is sport. That's not sport. I hope they are disqualified. It's not for China. It's not for Indonesia. It's for sport."
The official Medal Results Page currently show that Indonesia's Triyatno has won a silver and Eko Yuli Irawan won a bronze in weightlifting, presumably without the aid of steroids. It also reports that two bronzes have been won*, but in which sports or who by is hard to find out as neither the dedicated Indonesia page nor the Medals Results page give such mundane details.
A little moan.
I was engrossed in the Hewitt – Djokovic* tennis match which appeared poised to provide an upset – bye-bye Djoko? – when ESPN switched to the scheduled women's table-tennis.
I realise that it would probably be logistically difficult to have separate channels for every sport, and showing the synchronised diving because it featured Malaysians does show an awareness of the jingoism of local spectator-viewers, but leaving a match poised for a climax is incredibly frustrating.
*Djokovic eventually won in three sets.
*Of course, nothing else has been won – yet.

Is the UAE Reaping the Benefits of Economic Diversification Efforts?
CEIC Macro Watch: After the economic slowdown in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) following the 2008 global financial crisis, the government took steps to diversify the economy to avoid overdependence on oil, by targeting expansion of the construction, real estate, tourism and manufacturing sectors. Despite these efforts, the oil sector's share in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has continuously increased to reach 32.6% in 2012, compared to 30.6% in 2009 and 31.3% in 2010. On the other hand, the non-oil sectors' share in GDP has fallen from 69.4% in 2009 to 67.3% in 2012. Moreover, the oil sector continues to lead the country's growth, rising by 6.3% in real terms in 2012 compared to 3.5% growth in the non-oil sectors. Thus, the UAE's efforts to lessen its dependence on global oil prices and volatility to external shocks need to be more focused and diversified.

Wanted is a loud, obnoxious action movie that will entertain people who like loud, obnoxious action movies. I don't want to sound like the usual stick-in-the-mud who can't enjoy these sort of things, but I was turned off from the beginning by the casually misanthropic tone. While it's cool that the letters of a keyboard that has met the face of jerk can fly, in bullet-time like The Matrix, at the camera and spell out a quote from Catcher in the Rye, it's overkill in so many meanings of the word overkill.
The extensive and predictable plot involves an ancient clan of assassins who read, in Greco-Roman fashion, the warp and weft of fate in a giant loom. Morgan Freeman, as the head of this clan, once again plays into his God trope.
Continue reading about Wanted (minor spoilers)…Cubicle-dwelling loser Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy, channeling Shia LaBeouf) is the son of one the best of these assassins, though he's never known his father and so doesn't realize that the panic attacks he has are actually manifestations of his super-assassin powers. Thankfully, Fox (Angelina Jolie) comes to rescue him from a stultifying desk job (like Keanu Reeves had in The Matrix) and unleash his inner killer. After some perfunctory objections to killing people based on how threads spell out names (in a binary code, similar to The Matrix), Gibson becomes the greatest assassin ever and puts his assassin powers to use in a Matrix-like frontal assault of bad guy headquarters.
Director Timur Bekmambatov occasionally has original stylistic flourishes, so it seems like a waste that he continuously returns to the Matrix knockoff sensibility. I hear his movie Night Watch is a masterwork. I wish I had seen that one instead.

UPDATE: I have now seen Night Watch and can definitively recommend watching it instead of/before Wanted. Much better movie.

With the new, smooth and slim LXORY Dual Wireless Charging Pad you acquire much more than you usually expect from a wireless phone charger. It has two Qi charging pads, which enable you to simultaneously charge two wireless charging ready phones, and it also allows you to wire charge an additional device using the USB outlet. For the USB output to be functional, the Dual Qi Charger must be provided with the minimum of 18 Watts using the USB-C input (the USB-C cable is included in the package).
But not only is the LXORY Charging Pad a three-in-one charging device with a USB-C outlet and an included cable. It is also the first Dual Qi Charger that takes a step further and provides you with the lightning and the micro USB inputs.
This means it does not matter what charging cable you have set up, you can just plug the charging pad in and be on your way. So if you already have two wireless ready charging phones or in case you are thinking of buying the second one, get yourself the two phone charging station right away. This way you can save your money, the space on your desktop and the simplicity of setting the device up can even save you a little bit of time.
Setting up the LXORY Dual Qi Charger is quick and easy. All you need to do, is connect the transmitter to the USB outlet and place your phone on one of the devices pads. For your phone to charge without plugging in the cable, it must be one of the Qi wireless charging ready phones and it will start charging the second the connection is made.
If your phone is not Qi-ready, it can be upgraded with a receiver case or an interior receiver. In case your phone does not come with the receiver already built in, there is absolutely nothing to worry about; an aftermarket receiver can be equipped to the majority of smartphones.
The LXORY Dual Wireless Charging Pad is extremely convenient, because there is no need to plug or unplug the charging cable, which is especially practical when you have a call to answer or a quick text to return. There are also no mechanical moving parts involved that can break, like charging cables quite often do.
But on top of all this, and the fact that this charging pad is fairly inexpensive, the Dual Qi Charger gives your desktop a tidier look and it avoids any milder or more severe electric shocks, that are very much possible when there is an exposed charging cable end lying on your desk or awkwardly dangling off of it.
Of course the pad itself has to be plugged in with a USB cable to be functional, but even if you leave it plugged in at all times, thanks to the slim and sleek design it only takes up as little desk space as it possibly can and it is equipped with rubber feet, so it cannot slip off any surface.
Using the LXORY Dual Wireless Charging Pad has another big advantage, that you should take into consideration, when you are deciding whether or not to buy it. You probably know, that wireless charging generates heat, that is why your phone may get warm while charging up.
Many other chargers simply keep charging, exposing your phone to potential heat damage. Overheating the phone battery can lead to compromising the performance of the device, and the life expectancy of the battery itself can be reduced.
With LXORY Dual Qi Charger your mind can be at peace, because this charger has a built-in temperature sensor. This will restrain the maximum temperature of the transmitter to a secure extent and protect your device from heat damage.
The downside of this product may be, that it can only charge at 5 Watts, which prevents you to take advantage of either Apple's or Samsung's wireless fast charging features. The charging also lasts a little longer than it would if you used the cable plugged directly into your phone. When your phone battery is completely empty, it takes approximately four hours to charge, and about two and a half hours, if the battery is at its 50% of its capacity.
These numbers tell us that the power efficiency is about 30% smaller than using the conventional cable. But considering you can simply put your phone down and it instantly begins to charge, this is only a minor disadvantage; place your Dual Qi Charger someplace where you spend most of your time (work desk, bed-side table, kitchen counter…) and your phone will be sitting on the charging pad practically all the time, so the charging speed becomes relatively irrelevant.
If you are not sure about your phone being Qi-ready or you do not know how to equip your device with a receiver, all you need to do is take a minute of your time and check through the internet browser.
There are even a couple of tablets on the market with the Qi charging ability already built in, and with the LXORY Dual Wireless Charging Pad you can charge both devices, your phone and your tablet, at the same time. Or maybe there is more than one phone in your household and the standard charging cable broke.
Instead of wasting money on an additional charger, you can now kill two birds with one stone with the LXORY Dual Qi Charger. This way you can always count on your phone to always be at the same place, and you can forget about the cluttered, tangled cables lying around.

You're probably wondering how you can afford a high-end venue when you may be working with a not-so-high-end budget. We have come across an increasing number of newly engaged couples that have a hard time finding the venue that's falls within their budget (and their vision). And since the venue will be the largest expense on the wedding planning list, many Brides-to-be are looking to reduce the cost of their reception venue, while making sure it's everything they've always dreamed of.
We have gathered some ideas that might help ease the process of finding the right venue that will cater to you and your needs.
- When you call the venue to set up an appointment, do not mention that you are interested in hosting your wedding there. In the beginning, just say you are interested in setting up an appointment to visit the location for an upcoming event. The word "wedding" automatically marks up the price! Once you get a feel for the pricing for regular events, then you can start talking about the pricing for a wedding and see how you can leverage the initial conversation.
- Look for a venue that allows you to use your own vendors. Usually, when the venue has preferred vendors, they have set rates so they can make more money, leaving you at a standstill financially in other areas of your wedding planning. Oh and feel free to contact @Favors_and_More to discuss pricing for floral arrangements, favors and much more! ;o)
- Although there are specific wedding seasons throughout the year, try to host your wedding on an off-season. This is true in other areas of your life as well…such as Halloween Costumes being super expensive just before Halloween, but 50%+ off the day AFTER Halloween. If you have an off-wedding-season wedding, you may be able to save a little.
- Try to pick a date other than Saturday Night; Saturday is such a huge party night, so the rates are more expensive at almost every venue.
- Think outside the box! Look for a location where people wouldn't normally think to host a wedding, such as a Golf Course, a Winery or even a Museum/Aquarium. Those places would be an interesting site for your guests and the cost may be less than a venue that typically hosts weddings. Some non-traditional places such as a museum may have historical significance and a great amount of design elements that can be worked into your wedding theme/decor. When you find a venue that suits your personal style, look around to see if you can use anything in the space that you'll be able to tie into your floral arrangements, table decor, etc.
- See if hosting your event during the day is less expensive. Brunch style weddings are a lot more common lately and can save you some money in the long run.
- Consolidate! Consider choosing a single venue for both your ceremony and reception. That way, you can cut down on travel costs, and you won't have to pay fees for two separate locations.
- Last but not Least don't be afraid to ask for a discount if you are paying in full/cash when you book the location.
We hope these tips help you on your journey to finding the right venue for your wedding day!
Thank you for reading!
