Irbitis I-12
Latvia is less known as the country of the aircraft constructions but they did have its own constructions with roots going back in the years after the First World War. Karlis Irbitis is one of the pioneers of the aircrafts design in Latvia. In his early years Latvia was part of the Russia and he had chance to see some of the Russians war machines of the French origins. His early attempt to build aircraft fall when his Nieuport replica crashed so he turn his interest in the modeling.
Karlis Irbitis has enrolled into the Mechanical Engineering Facility and he has spent time in the work on the airframe maintenance for the new formed Latvian Air Force. Important moment was when he has met in 1925 Nicholas Pulins. Mr. Pulins have interest in light aviation and Irbitis has give influence to start build high wing monoplane with Anzani engine. Previously Pulins have interest in biplanes. With the financial support Irbitris make his first aircraft I-1 and it have maiden flight at 13th June 1925. I-1 was single seat airplane and follow to this is I-2, two seat aircraft and name Ikarus. Interesting that on I-2 both Irbitis and Pulins learn to fly.
After military service, Irbitis start work as designer in the A.S. Backman company and main work was focused on repairing of aircraft for Latvia. His first work was on Hansa Brandenburg W.29 and this was hard work due to the lack of the technical documentation. After several projects A.. Backman has bankrupted and closed in 1930 and Karlis Irbitis joined electric company Valsts Elektrotechniska Fabrika. In the 1935 he submit proposal to company to built aircraft and aircraft construction division was established in the same year with Irbitis as the head of the division. The very first project was I-11, powered with Minor 90 HP engine and its maiden flight was in July 1936. By the end of this year started work on the improved version I-12, in most aspect similar to the I-11. Main improvement goes to the wing construction and new wing have smaller chord/thickness ratio and other major improvement was positioning of the fuel tanks in the wing center section.
First flight was made at after its completion in June 1937. New aircraft proven good and it has used in several air competition in Europe. One machine was lost at 17. May 1938 during the International Aircraft Exhibition in Helsinki and that was machine register as YL-ABO. After the demonstrating of spin on height of 200 meters, pilot did not manage to recover airplane and aircraft crashed killing its pilot. Interesting to note is the non stop flight from London to Riga and at the controls was British pilot P. de W. Avery. Several machines was accepted for service and in 1939 I-12 was accepted by Air registration Board for sale in UK. Version of this aircraft include single seat fighter plane trainer where front cockpit is simply covered and canopy was single seat. In the 1939 V.E.F. I-12 was presented to the Latvian Air Force. They have later operated four I-12 of those two was converted as single seat trainers. Interesting that they also used gun camera for combat practices. Aircraft was painted Dark Green topside, with Light Grey lower wing surfaces. National insignia was Auskelis cross in Dark Red on a White disc are used in six positions. Serial number on fuselage was Black with a White outline.

WATR, at it's heart, is a volunteer organization. We depend on each other to keep informed about problems and to work towards solutions.
WATR is looking for volunteers
to assist with Field events and Association Activities. In some cases, the committees dedicated to the task have dwindled and need a fresh start.
Citizen Scientists
Learn cool things about mountain streams and collect critical data for assessing stream health and monitoring change among our streams and change over time.
Join a team and collect samples of macro-invertebrates (aquatic bugs) that indicate the health of stream and the abundance of food for fish. See the WATR Event listing for the SMIE training. Commit to one day of training, then collect samples on one day in the spring and one in the fall going forward.
Fish monitoring is a real possibility in 2014. We are laying out plans for collecting fish samples as part of our "Families in the Creek" programs this summer. Very exciting to put on waders and join the fish shocking (no, the fish are not harmed). Species are identified and counted. Great fun for young and old. Call the office.
Other opportunities:
Visual Stream Assessment Protocol — with a some training, walk the streams, in waders or shorts, and assess the condition of stream banks and stream bed.
Water Quality sampling — collect samples for chemical and physical analysis.
Watch our Water (WoW):
Not for the feint hearted. Inspect streams during storms and locate sources of MUD (erosion). Gather samples and take pictures. Work with us to follow up. Encourage landowners to use best management practices for erosion prevention.

Alfa Romeo and Carrozzeria Touring's 1952 C52 Disco Volante concept car was perhaps the ultimate example of style over substance. While no one could deny that it looked spectacular — not for nothing did its name translate as 'flying saucer' — it was also hugely impractical.
Its tiny size made clambering into the driver's seat a dignity-denting experience. What's more, its engine would regularly overheat, rendering the cockpit temperature unbearable. It's hardly surprising, then, that only four were produced.
However, 60 years after the original 'flying saucer' was unveiled, Italian car-maker Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera and Alfa Romeo have decided it's time the model received a modern makeover.
The Disco Volante 2012, built on an Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione chassis, debuted at the recent Geneva Motor Show, leaving little but glowing reports in its wake. The designers have largely stuck to the original blueprints the sweeping curves, flat-top fenders and split grille are all obvious nods to the 1952 model.
However, while the original could reach a then-impressive top speed of 140mph, the revamped 2012 version is capable of notching 181mph and 0-60mph in 4.2 seconds.
This is all thanks to a 4.7-litre, six-speed V8 engine which, presumably, will not emit the same uncomfortably scorching temperatures as its early-Fifties predecessor. Its larger stature should make getting into the vehicle less embarrassing, too.
Having retained the original's stunning aesthetics — while eradicating its design flaws — Carrozzeria Touring has decided that, this time, the Disco Volante deserves to graduate into full production.
Limited 2012 models will be available later this year, but be warned: its price tag is likely to leave you sweating as much as the original cockpit's heat.

I started this blog earlier this year when I regained my love for books. It was fun, but the amount of time it took overwhelmed me; to think that back then, I wasn't taking college as seriously as I do now.
But I'm happy to say that I'm back! This time, I'll try to be better at sticking with schedules and whatnot. Self-discipline, yes.
Unfortunately, I didn't write reviews for anything I read after L.J. Smith's The Forbidden Game. I'll work on most of those books' reviews except for the ones I'll be re-reading (i.e. part of an unfinished series, or those I really loved). I will also be using a new format for my reviews because I seem to have lost my ability to string cohesive paragraphs together, lol.

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @Caffeinated Book Reviewer. Basically it's a chance to talk about the books you bought, borrowed, blogged about, and read for the week and what's coming in the week ahead – and then share them with a much wider blogging community. Check out the details here.
News at Home: Teacher of the Month!
That's right y'all! I found out on Friday that I'm teacher of the month for my school. I knew things were going well, but I didn't see this coming. To make clear just how shocked I was, I have to tell you the story of how it was announced. This will involve bragging on myself a bit, but I feel like y'all have supported me so much this past year (the year of hell!) that you deserve the praise and excitement too!
We had a faculty meeting and at the end, the principal said it was time to award our first teacher of the month. She explained that the way they pick the teacher is by paying attention to which teachers they keep hearing good things about. "Well," she said (obviously not an exact quote but close), "we've had numerous comments from other teachers and parents about this teacher. Teachers who teach on the opposite side of the school, but are so impressed by the behavior she holds her students to in the hallway, that they've come to us to comment on it. Parents of her students are thrilled by her communication and dedication, but what's remarkable is that parents who have no dealings with her have observed her with her students and have told us how impressed they are. One parent told us that she watched her greet every student in the morning, shaking their hand and saying good morning and she was so impressed that such an important lesson was being taught. Another reported that she just radiates love for her students, that even when they saw her dealing with a student that was misbehaving, they didn't see frustration or anger, but a determination that they would and could learn to behave."
Ok y'all, at this point I was thinking geez, I wonder if I know this teacher, I want to go learn from her! It hadn't entered my mind they were talking about me. Especially with that last bit, because when a student is misbehaving, especially in the hallway for all to see, I get extremely frustrated. Yes, I try to stay calm because I know getting worked up makes it worse, but geez I'm frustrated!
Anyway the principal continued by explaining that once they have some teachers on their radar, they make classroom visits to observe them in action. Because the teacher of the month is more than a popularity contest, it's good teaching.
"Y'all" she continued, "I was so impressed by what I saw. This teacher had 100% of her class engaged – and she has some difficult behaviors!! They were all sitting at the carpet eyes glued to her. When I walked in, a couple turned their heads, and she said 'eyes on me' and they all immediately turned back to her and I was forgotten. That's a feat in itself, with her grade level. I watched a lesson where the kids practiced every phonological skill they need, practiced their sight words, and danced their alphabet sounds. Every learning style was met in the 15 minutes I was there. It was high energy and not a minute of wasted instructional time. Routines and procedures were so clearly in place, that she didn't lose a moment to confusion or disorder."
Yeah, I was so looking around the room to see if I could tell who it was. I thought their face might show recognition of the lesson they'd taught. And I wanted to go observe this teacher! Pfft!
And then she said, "what makes this all more impressive is that this isn't the classroom of a veteran teacher, but a newbie." My eyes swiveled to the one first year teacher at our school. Wow, I thought, my first year – especially at this point – was a disaster.
"so congratulations to second year teacher, (my name). "
Y'all, I shit you not, I said "what the fuck! Thank goodness I said it so softly that only the teachers at my table heard – and they're my team so I feel OK that they heard… They're cussers too. And they all chuckled. But I did not suspect it was me. Certainly didn't sound a thing like me, to me.
So yeah, I had an amazing end to the week. The only negative is that now, the pressure is on. Her boss, our director, was at the school and she introduced me to him and gave him the same speech. Despite my darkish complexion, I'm sure I was beet red.
The thing is, she caught me at literally the best part of my day. If she'd been there 15 minutes earlier or later, it wouldn't have been as smooth. And I tried to express that, saying, "you caught us at one of our best moments. I still have a lot to learn." she responded by telling him, "and see, she's so humble and teachable!" *sigh* #backfired
He now plans to visit my classroom and potentially bring other teachers to observe. So yes, awesome praise, but holy shit I'm freaking out and nervous.
Honestly I'm sure other shit happened this week but I totally forgot after that.
Blog News
Grr! WordPress hates me right now. Jetpack disappeared – I have no idea when, but it's gone. And I can't reload it because somehow it still looks like the folders are there even though when I do a search I cant find them. And I used jetpack to manage my email subscriptions, so all those people aren't getting my posts. Grrr!
And Akismet thinks bloggers are spammers but seems absolutely fucking fine with spammers posting to my blog. Seriously, wtf?!
On the positive, Blog Ahead is officially started and I just have to start writing posts. I'm started with 0 and I'm hoping to get to 30. Yesterday I got my calendar for October and November set, so I have a chance in hell of pulling this off. Now to get to writing.
#FitReaders Update
I didn't get any blogging done yesterday because I was gone all day. I had a 5k walk – it wasn't timed or anything, but it was good fun and the first one Buffy could come along!
In fact, y'all – I was supposed to fundraise for this and I sucked so bad that I haven't earned a penny. If you have any ability to donate even $5 I would so appreciate it. I feel like I failed the cause by coming up with nothing. I donated at the event with purchases, but that's not the same.
Here's the link if you can contribute! Thanks in advance!
I also made it to the gym 2x this week! I did a body conditioning class and a zumba class. I have some meetins next week, but I hope I can make it again and more times!

The Frenchmen became a legend while playing with Arsenal. Pires then moved on to La Liga to play for Villarreal. Here he shows you how to beat a player on the dribble and with a one two or give and go.

How to gift assets without incurring penalty
Gifting assets is a powerful planning tool. It not only reduces the value of your estate for taxes, but as land and other assets appreciate, the appreciation occurs outside the estate.
For 2011 and 2012, Congress generously expanded the limits on the amount of assets that can be excluded from federal estate tax and the limits on tax-free gifting.
A taxpayer each year can gift $13,000 to another individual — to many individuals — tax free. If a father has four children, he could gift each child $13,000 without any gift tax consequences. This is the annual gift exclusion. If you gift too much, the beneficiary will have to pay taxes on the amount over $13,000. They are along the lines of estate tax rates.
However, the donor could apply the amount over $13,000 toward the donor's Estate Tax Credit, or gifting "piggy bank," which Congress expanded to $5 million for '11-12. If a father gifts $50,000 to a son; it's $37,000 above the annual gift exclusion.
The $37,000 would be subtracted from the father's Estate Tax Credit. It would be reduced by $37,000, leaving him $4,963,000 either for future gifting or for exclusion of assets at his death.

Saving and Investing at Every Age
By Nanci Hellmich
Accumulating a substantial nest egg for your retirement years may seem overwhelming, but there are smart ways to plan for retirement at every age, says Eric Freedman, chief investment officer for CAPTRUST.
The company works with thousands of investors and retirement plan sponsors, he says. "Our research and experience shows the importance of staying invested over time. Saving is your most powerful ally on your path to successful retirement planning."
"The most compelling statistics we see for prospective retirees highlight the power of making regular contributions over time, taking advantage of matching contributions, and investing intelligently," Freedman says.
How much you need to save for retirement depends on a lot of things: the lifestyle you want to live during retirement; the Social Security benefits you expect to receive; your medical expenses; your living arrangements, and a host of other variables.
To come up with an estimate, you can use a retirement planning calculator or seek the help of a financial advisor.
CAPTRUST offers several online calculators to assess your retirement savings plan and estimated Social Security benefits at www.captrustadvice.com. The online site is a good place to start, and it may be really helpful to review your plan with a financial professional, he says.
No matter what you discover, it's important to pay attention to your retirement savings at every age. Here are some of Freedman's ideas for saving and investing at different stages of your life:
In your 20s and 30s. First, make sure you're saving for retirement by having contributions automatically taken out of your paycheck, Freedman says. Second, remember you can afford to take on more investment risk, such as owning more stocks, in your early working years. Keep saving and investing to smooth out your returns over time.
Take advantage of investment advice programs your employer offers through your retirement plan, or get some outside professional experts' perspectives on investing. Understand how markets work by reading credible books and articles from reputable sources. "The Internet has lots of wannabe expert, so be careful," he says.
In your 40s and 50s. Become more aware of your potential retirement goals, Freedman says. Try to figure out when, where, and how you're going to retire.
Track your saving and spending habits, and try to set money aside for college educations, weddings, and other expenses while still saving for retirement. This is a time when you may need to get more advanced, professional advice about your asset allocation to make sure your investment strategy properly reflects your personal situation.
As you're nearing retirement. Take a hard look at your spending and saving habits, and come up with a rough estimate of your spending needs in retirement, including potential healthcare expenses. Start thinking about when you are going to file for Social Security benefits, and figure out how much you're going to receive, he says.
Get professional financial help to make sure your asset allocation is in sync with any life changes. You will probably want to take a close look at the level of risk you are taking with your investments.
In retirement. There is no universal prescription for the proportion of stocks or bonds you should have in your portfolio as you age, Freedman says.
People need to be aware that their accounts can fluctuate depending on their underlying investments, and they need to make sure their time horizon, risk tolerance, and asset allocation are in sync.
That's why you may need to get individual advice from an expert. Financial advisors are like personal trainers who are supposed to keep you on an agreed upon plan for your financial fitness, he says.

5 tips for a healthy summer with your dog
The days are getting longer, the cricket's on the box and the sweet smell of bbq is wafting through the parks. That's right, summer is here! Balanced Life is a very easy way to feed your dog meaning you can spend more time having fun with your pooch this summer. With a little help from our fans, we've put together our top tips for a happy, healthy summer.
#1 hit the beach
By far the most popular tip from our Balanced Life fans was to hit the beach! Dogs can cool off in the surf while having fun and getting some great exercise.
#2 frozen treats
The second most popular tip was to provide your pooch with some frozen treats. You can make your own recipes for ice cubes like Karl's chicken stock and broccolini suggestion or even freeze Balanced Life for a cool summer treat.
#3 don't leave them in the car
Cars heat up very, very quickly as this sweaty vet can testifyand dogs left in cars can die from severe heat exhaustion in a mere 6 minutes. You can take the pledge with RSPCA to never leave your dog unattended in a vehicle here.
#2 watch their weight
Sometimes its just too hot to rustle up much of an appetite. While the occasional skipped meal is fine (particularly if they've built up a bit of extra baggage over winter), its important dogs don't become underweight. You can perform a simple check on your dog's weight by looking at your dog's body shape from above and the side using the Body Condition Score. If they're underweight increase their portions or try feeding at a cooler time of day.
#5 look out for parasites
Ticks and fleas are common parasites in spring and summer months so its important to check for them and treat if found.Since parasites always tend to attack and populate the weakest and sickest animals, the first line of defence is to keep your pet in the very best health with a healthy, balanced diet like Balanced Life.

Parson's Tables
Does anyone remember the original Parson's table? This was a square table with square legs and it came in different sizes and heights. Designed in the fifties by a teacher at the Parson's School of Design, it was sturdy and versatile and at the time, quite modern. It has never gone out of style, although it's difficult to find the original version anymore. Now one finds copies in every color and material. Home centers and five-and-tens even sell a plastic version for $3.95. Good design does last.
Desk Lamps
The other day a friend and I were singing the praises of the old gooseneck studio lamp. It comes in clamp-on and desk-top models, and the originals were sold through better art stores. Interior designers have always borrowed from other venues and this lamp ultimately found its way from the artists' studios into homes as a versatile reading lamp. It had an industrial look that was quite handsome, and it still prevails in many homes that don't have an artist in residence. Eventually knockoffs appeared, and as is the norm, they were not as sturdy, and the quality of the metal base wasn't as good. Now you can get really cheap versions that function well enough for use on a child's homework desk. But the originals still look great in a modern living room.
The Tizio Lamp
Today's version of a good work lamp is the Tizio, a high-intensity desk lamp with a swivel base that can be adjusted to nearly any angle. The original sells for around $350, but you can find all sorts of copies for under $60 and really cheap versions for under $25. There are several versions of Halogen lamps with a spring-balanced arm that are well-designed task lights. There are also copies of the copies trading several levels downward in price and function. But they are classic designs and, like tie-dyed shirts, will probably be rediscovered by the next generation as modem design.

Prince Harry was there to greet a team of wounded warriors who had walked 1,000 miles across Britain. Walking With The Wounded kicked off a few months ago, and the British royal joined the hike at various points across the country with six wounded veterans, both British and American. The team consisted of veterans with both physical and mental injuries, including amputees. Two United States Marines took place in the trek, and one of them is Kirstie Ennis. And at the end of the walk, which concluded at Buckingham Palace on November 1, she gave something to Prince Harry that almost brought him to tears.
Ennis was severely injured when, during a deployment to Afghanistan, the helicopter she was riding in crashed. Her jaw and half of her face were shattered; she's had to undergo 38 separate operations. And her recovery still isn't over — she was supposed to have her left leg amputated above the knee this summer, but Ennis chose instead to wait until after the 1,000 mile walk was over. She was in constant pain, and said that it was the hardest thing she's ever done aside from her rehabilitation. But she had an important mission to carry out.
With her on the walk were 24 dog tags that Ennis had made in memory of Marines who have died. She laid them throughout the journey, and Prince Harry joined her once. "Harry asked if he could lay one with me in Shropshire. We stopped at a castle for lunch and left one of the tags at a war memorial we found in the grounds along with a poem, which Harry read," she said. When Ennis reached Buckingham Palace, where Harry was there to greet the team, she suddenly decided that she wasn't going to leave the final dog tag there, as planned. Instead, she decided to present it to the royal himself. She handed him the dog tag for Corporal TJ Baune, a friend of Ennis' who was killed in an IED blast just ten days before her own helicopter went down. He was only 21 years old when he died, and left behind a wife and a family. Harry, overcome with emotion, originally refused to take it, saying, "No, I can't, I can't accept this." But Ennis insisted. "
'I look at situations like that, he never came home, he had a wife and a family but he never came home. The six of us here today did come home, we are actually the lucky ones. The least we can do is share their legacy and honour their memory," she explained. "Harry was reluctant to accept it at first because he knows how much it means [to me]. He has helped me lay a couple of them and was hesitant to take them as he knows how much it means to me. I told him he had to." She cried as she gave him the dog tag, and he comforted her with a hug, clearly fighting back tears himself.

|Sean Cassidy
|Portrayed By
|Colin Farrell
A loner who keeps to himself while working through Manhattan, attempting to keep what once resembled law & order.
- Birthday: December 16, 1980
- Position: Ex-Lawman
- Fame: He's known for keeping the peace (somewhat) in Manhattan. He'll escort mutants to Rykers, and do what he can to stop the gang fighting.
- Family: None
For the early years of their lives, Sean and Tom Cassidy were like brothers, and they found at an early age that not only were they both mutants, but they were immune to each others' powers. The two remained close as they grew up, even when Sean went into law enforcement, eventually secretly becoming an undercover Interpol agent. Only one thing came between them; a stunning blonde with a penchant for motorcycles by the name of Maeve Rourke.
Sean met Maeve when she rescued him from two corrupt police officers who were intent on framing the young man as an IRA scout (he was simply hitchhiking home from a concert). Despite having just met the girl, Sean used his powers openly in front of her. To his surprise, she wasn't the least bit frightened by them.
He brought her home to Cassidy Keep, and though he wasn't as charming as he wished he'd be, he won Maeve's heart and after a time the two were married.
Shortly after their wedding, Sean had to go deep undercover for Interpol, unable to have any contact outside of the mission. Unbeknownst to him, Maeve was pregnant with their daughter, Theresa. She gave birth to the little girl while Sean was still incommunicado, and the news that he was a father was unable to reach him. Sean was, in fact, so deep undercover that not even the news of Maeve's death could reach him until he came home. She had been visiting family in Belfast when an IRA bombing had taken place, killing her. It was assumed by most that little Theresa had perished as well.
When Sean had returned home, he was crushed with grief and guilt for not being there to prevent the deaths from happening. Sean threw himself into his work with Interpol, opting not to return to Cassidy Keep due to the memories it held. He worked for Interpol (and for a good while, the NYPD as a liaison) for 10 years until he was forced to quit after a botched mission in which a mercenary killed the mobster they were trying to find information on (though in doing this, he saved Sean's life, as the criminal was about to shoot.).
With all of this turmoil in his life, Sean fell into a deep depression. What was his point for living? No job to bury himself in. No family to distract him and love him for who he really was and not pretending to be…Nothing… After a night of drinking at a local pub(Irish of course), Sean began his lonely trek home. After some time, he'd decided that his expertise could be used in the States, especially with mutant unrest growing in NYC. So he immigrated to the US, legally, and got himself a job with the NYPD. He quickly rose up through the ranks with his experience and his skills, making detective. Sean was one of the first to come out as a mutant, and gladly registered, even though he had some inner reservations about being kept under the government's thumb. With the anti-mutant sentiment growing, and his brothers on the police force growing cold and angered towards him, Sean thought it was wise to quit, before an incident occurred and someone got hurt.
After the destruction of Manhattan and the rise of anger and violence against mutants, Sean stayed in Manhattan, doing his best to bring his own form of law & order to a chaotic area. He would escort peaceful mutants to Rykers, and he did his best to keep crime down, though he's mostly been unsuccessful.
Flight: Due to Sean's extraordinarily powerful mutant lungs, he has the ability to fly. He can fly unaided at a speed up to around 75 mph. His reach isn't limitless, only being able to go the distance of about 50 miles some form of rest. He can carry someone with him, but that brings both speed and distance down to half, since they'd hardly be aerodynamic, plus he'd half to tone his scream down so as not to damage the other person's ears. As with all of Sean's powers, he can't do a thing if his vocal chords are damaged in some way.
Sonic Scream: Sean's scream is his primary weapon and has the same force as a concussive blast. He can produce up to 150 decibels. Against a person, it would the equivalent of blunt bashing damage, but on top of that he can damage eardrums, like listening to a loud rock concert for too long. He can only do this for short periods of time, as an assault on foes or obstacles, for instance. Also, he needs to see his target and his range is only about 20 yards away. Too much use can cause him to lose his voice temporarily. Longer prolonged use could possibly damage his vocal cords permanently. Sean is also impervious to his own voice, so he cannot damage his ears.
Sonic Shield: Sean can emanate sound waves within the direct vicinity of him, and use them as a reverse-concussive force against most projectiles, in essence using his power as a form of forcefield. When he's not using his sonic powers, he's as vulnerable as any normal person. He's not shielded from psionic powers or blasts of concussive force. If he becomes distracted or disoriented, he can drop his shield. The shield can only be directed to one area, which most of the time would be right in front of him. While he's got the 'shield' up, he cannot use any other power. Continuous hits against the shield weaken it, and Sean. As with all of Sean's powers, he's limited by his vocal chords.
Vocal Chords: If Sean can't make a noise, he's powerless. Put him in a vacuum, cut his throat, or even just knock the wind out of him and he's as helpless as any normal guy (well, any normal well trained ex-espionage agent). If Sean strains his voice by maxing out his powers he can lose his voice for extended periods of time leaving him powerless. Regaining his powers after straining his vocal chords can take up to a week or two much longer than just regaining his voice.
Bartending: Sean's pretty good with the alcohol, both in drinking it and in serving it. He owns his own bar and regularly works, serving the patrons. He'd picked up the art as a hobby at first, in his younger years at the Cassidy Keep. He continued to work at it all through his life, and finally took a course in NYC to get his license.
Charisma: Sean can be quite charming, even though it can come off as being goofy sometimes. He uses his charisma to scare foes, to cheer friends, and to charm ladies. His charisma is natural, and he doesn't feel as sophisticated when around others who work harder at it.
Detective: Sean has made a life for himself as a successful detective, working with both Interpol and the NYPD. He's worked to uncover many criminal organizations around the world. He's been trained to look for clues and is well adept at finding things out.
First Aid: Between work with Interpol and the NYPD, Sean's had to learn quickly how to dress a wound and set bones. He doesn't have extensive experience but he is good enough to patch someone up so they can be transported to better facilities.
Martial Arts: Sean had been trained in unarmed combat from the day he'd entered training with Interpol. He took to it easily enough and trained hard to become the experienced fighter that he is. His skill is at a professional level, enough to keep him alive. There are many out there, however, who could wipe the floor with him. He can be overcome when a group of three or more attack.
Subterfuge: Using his charisma and an exceptional skill of acting and lying, alongside the superior training he received from Interpol, Sean has been succesful in covert ops and in infiltrating criminal organizations. He may be a tad rusty, though, since he hadn't needed to use the skill much since he botched a job with Interpol and was released from service.
Weaponry: Sean began firearms training with Interpol and had grown increasingly accurate and accustomed to their use. He refrains from using deadly force as much as possible, but guns can be used, if skilled enough, in non-deadly ways. He carries weapons on him at all times when he's in civilian attire, but sheds them off once he becomes Banshee. Through his work with the NYPD, he's licensed to carry and keeps up his training and marksmanship rating.
Breath Control: Sean has possibly the largest lung capacity that a man can have. He is capable of holding his breath for minutes but the real application comes in his prolonged screaming. He has also trained himself to be able to time his breathes to keep a near continuous stream of sonic energy going in order to stay in flight or keep up a shield. A single breath, if closely watched, can last for about 2 minutes.
Hearing: Despite the massive amount of loud noise that he is constantly subjected to Sean ears are actually more sensitive than normal. He can hear beyond the normal audible range in both directions. He can perceive changes in tone or the direction of noises much more clearly than others. His hearing is much closer in its range, accuracy and sensitivity to animals than to most men. His ears also are immune to loud noises, he will not suffer hearing loss or pain regardless of how loud a noise is.
Guns: Before Sean became proficient in the use of his powers he relied on more mundane sorts of weapons. Sean still often carries a gun or two, especially if he's working on a case or expecting trouble. Sean prefers handguns though he does own a massive shotgun as well. He has three main pistols that he uses, a Desert Eagle .50, and two twin Glock 35s. When carrying the Glocks he keeps them in dual shoulder holsters but the Desert Eagle is usually found at his hip.
Contacts: Sean who is a former agent of Interpol, as well as a former detective in the NYPD. He has contacts around the world, both legit and otherwise. However, in his current state, seeking them out would prove difficult.
Lord Cassidy: When Sean's parents passed away he became Lord Cassidy, owner of Cassidy Keep and the recipient of the majority of his family's money, assets, etc. Sean's investments and assets bring him in quite a bit of money per year. On top of that Sean owned and ran a bar in midtown Manhattan that did quite well. Sean leaves all the care of his familial home and assets back in Ireland to a trusted family employee.
Drinking: Sean has a love hate relationship with drinking. He loves to drink and hates to stop. Normally Sean keeps a hold on this sort of thing because he knows he has responsibilities. However when faced with a difficult situation he often finds himself slipping into periods of excess. More than once Sean has needed the intervention of friends or another intense stimulus to knock him out of a drinking rut. In the end Sean is aware that it's an issue but it's not one he is willing to face or discuss.
Maeve: Is it really better to have loved and lost? Sean's one true love meant the world to him but he never really sat down and considered what he had. He took Maeve for granted, that she would always be there for him. He knows he failed her, as a husband and in other ways as a protector. He has many regrets over his short marriage to her. Sean is still in no place to start a relationship right now even though it's been years since Maeve's death.
Criminals: Throughout his time with Interpol Sean infiltrated various terrorist and criminal organizations to bring them down. There are those who hold a grudge against Sean for sending either themselves or their associates away to jail. Anyone with enough contacts could conceivably track Sean down to extract revenge against him.
Smoking: On top of drinking Sean also has another vice, nicotine. Originally Sean smoked a pipe, imitating the one his father smoked. Eventually for convenience's sake Sean switched to cigarettes. It's ironic that someone who relies on his lungs and throat so much would risk damaging them like he does.

Main draw action at the 2012 Victor Korea Open, an OSIM BWF Superseries Premier event, started off in the best of fashions, with an upset in a repeat of a 2011 Yonex World Championship final.
It is a testament to the strength of the fields at the OSIM BWF Superseries Premier events that a first round match could replay a final from the Yonex BWF World Championships but the strength in the match in question was with the English-Scottish combination of Chris Adcock / Imogen Bankier (pictured right), who ousted world #1's Zhang/Zhao of China in straight games.
