Dhaka, 19 May, Abnews : With the Beatles ringing in his ears and tears in his eyes, David Beckham admitted that his starring role in Paris Saint- Germain's French title party was the last chapter of his colourful career. The 38-year-old former England captain, one of the most high-profile players to shuffle between football and celebrity, made his final home appearance for the Ligue 1 champions on Saturday before heading into retirement.
Although PSG have one more game left to play, next weekend's meaningless fixture on an unforgiving plastic pitch at humble Lorient will almost certainly see Beckham watching from the sidelines. We have one more game officially, but it's a plastic surface and it was only a few years ago that I ruptured my Achilles (tendon). So whether or not I play, who knows?, said Beckham after PSG marked their Ligue 1 triumph with a 3-1 win over relegated Brest.
PSG president Nasser al-Khelaifi, the helmsman of Qatar's huge financial stake in the Paris club, is convinced that the Beckham story is over. Up to the coach but basically, I think that will be the last match for him, al-Khelaifi told the Media. Beckham, who rose from modest beginnings in east London to amass a fortune of 165 million ($252 million, 195 million euros), has been linked with a raft of future career possibilities.
They range from promotional roles with PSG and China and British Sky Sports television, to buying a stake in an American club in Major League Soccer where he has already played for Los Angeles Galaxy. But, as befits a sports diplomat in the making, Beckham preferred to concentrate on the end of his brief, five-month stay with PSG rather than the unfamiliar challenges of retirement.
The stadium gave him a standing ovation as he left the pitch 10 minutes from time in floods of tears at the end of an evening which had seen him handed the captain's armband by coach Carlo Ancelotti. He was saluted by a guard of honour from his teammates before he climbed the podium to receive his Ligue 1 title medal.
Draped in an English flag and serenaded by the Beatles'Hello, Goodbye, a laser show accompanied a brief video highlights reel of his time with the club. It concluded with the words: Thank you David.
The emotions started kicking in about 20 minutes before I went off. It was hard to even run and kick the ball. And to see the reaction of the players was really special, he said. With 25 members of his family looking on — including his parents and wife Victoria — Beckham admitted that his own sons had already made off with the match-day souvenirs. The boys nicked my boots and shorts and medal, Beckham told Sky Sports.
The experience has been the best. I feel so lucky to have had this profession for 20 years. It's very special and to go out like this, it could not be any more perfect. Beckham said he felt humbled by being named captain. When the manager told me, it was really special. To be an Englishman as captain on a night which meant so much to the fans. It was an amazing gesture and I will always be thankful for it.
Last week, Beckham had helped PSG to their first league title since 1994 with a win over Lyon, and then announced he would retire at the end of the season having captured a championship in a fourth different league — he had already succeeding with Manchester United, Real Madrid and Galaxy. Thanks to everyone in Paris, to all of my teammates, the staff and fans, said Beckham at the trophy presentation.
It's been very special to finish my career here. I now want to enjoy time with my family. I have all the memories I need. Paris has always been one of the world's most beautiful places for me and I am very sad to be leaving. On the pitch, Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored twice while Beckham had a hand in the other PSG goal, a trademark,inch-perfect corner finding Blaise Matuidi to hit the target.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is hoping to expand hunting and fishing at 10 national wildlife refuges (NWR) in eight different states.
The proposal includes:
- Opening moose hunting at the Des Lacs NWR in North Dakota
- Opening moose and turkey hunting at the Souris River Basin NWR in North Dakota, as well as expanding upland game and big game hunting
- Expanding migratory game bird hunting, upland game and big game hunting at the Savannah River NWR between Georgia and South Carolina, the Minnesota Valley NWR in Minnesota, the Patoka River NWR in Indiana, and the Horicon NWR in Wisconsin
- Expanding big game hunting at the Fox River NWR in Wisconsin
- Expanding upland game and big game hunting at the Sequoyah NWR in Oklahoma
- Expanding migratory game bird hunting at the Baskett Slough NWR in Oregon
- Opening sport fishing at the Siletz Bay NWR in Oregon
Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke made the announcement last week.
"I grew up in the mountains of northwest Montana, where I spent my time hunting and fishing on our shared public lands. I was lucky to take my boys out on the same land that my dad and granddad took me," Zinke said in a statement. "As the steward of our public lands, one of my top priorities is to open up access wherever possible for hunting and fishing so that more families have the opportunity to pass down the heritage."
"The last thing I want to see is hunting and fishing become elite sports," he added. "These ten refuges will provide incredible opportunities for sportsmen and anglers across the country to access the land and connect with the wildlife."
There are currently 566 national wildlife refuges in the United States. If the proposal is approved, the public will be able to hunt on 373 of them and fish at 312.

Alcoholic beverages, used by many to "unwind" or relax, act as a social "ice-breaker," is a way to alter one´s mood by decreasing inhibitions. Alcohol consumption is widely accepted, often providing the cornerstone of social gatherings and celebrations. Along with cigarettes, many adolescents associate the use of alcohol as a rite of passage into adulthood.
While its use is prevalent and acceptable in our society, it should not come as a surprise that problems arise in the use of alcohol and the performance of safety-related activities, such as driving an automobile or flying an aircraft. These problems are made worse by the common belief that accidents happen "to other people, but not to me." There is a tendency to forget that flying an aircraft is a highly demanding cognitive and psychomotor task that takes place in an inhospitable environment where pilots are exposed to various sources of stress.

Table 3. Fatal general aviation accidents with alcohol as possible contributing factor.
Table 3 shows the annual alcohol-related pilot fatalities in general aviation accidents between 1987 and 1993, as reported by the Forensic Toxicology Research Section of the FAA Civil Aerospace Medical Institute. This information is based on the analysis of blood and tissue samples from pilots involved in fatal aviation accidents.
A hangover effect, produced by alcoholic beverages after the acute intoxication has worn off, may be just as dangerous as the intoxication itself. Symptoms commonly associated with a hangover are headache, dizziness, dry mouth, stuffy nose, fatigue, upset stomach, irritability, impaired judgment, and increased sensitivity to bright light. A pilot with these symptoms would certainly not be fit to safely operate an aircraft. In addition, such a pilot could readily be perceived as being "under the influence of alcohol."
Flying, while fun and exciting, is a precise, demanding, and unforgiving endeavor. Any factor that impairs the pilot´s ability to perform the required tasks during the operation of an aircraft is an invitation for disaster.
The use of alcohol is a significant self-imposed stress factor that should be eliminated from the cockpit. The ability to do so is strictly within the pilot´s control.
The use of alcohol and drugs by pilots is regulated by FAR 91.17. Among other provisions, this regulation states that no person may operate or attempt to operate an aircraft:
Keep in mind that regulations alone are no guarantee that problems won´t occur. It is far more important for pilots to understand the negative effects of alcohol and its deadly impact on flight safety.
Ideally, total avoidance of alcohol should be a key element observed by every pilot in planning or accomplishing a flight.
Alcohol avoidance is as critical as developing a flight plan, a good preflight inspection, obeying ATC procedures, and avoiding severe weather.

How to lock a bike – video
Tips to keep your pride and joy securely locked
It's every cyclist's worst nightmare – returning to your bike only to find a broken lock and no trace of their pride and joy. The sad fact is that bike theft is an incredibly common crime and, as a result, bicycle security has never been as important as it is today.
Many of us have to lock our bikes in less than ideal conditions on a daily basis, and we're always amazed at the amount of lockup fails we've seen out and about. No lock is totally theft-proof, of course, but follow the advice in the video below and you can make it as difficult as possible for bike thieves to get what they want.
Video: How to lock a bike
If you're lucky enough to own a shed for your bike or bikes and are concerned about security, BikeRadar have put together a two-part guide to help you improve defences. We've also got a buyer's guide to bike locks for those after a more detailed rundown of security hardware.

Understanding and Preventing Economic Espionage
March 31st, 2015 | Business Security, Cyber, Government, Security | 0 Comments
April 1, 2015
By Stephanie Kent
Investigative Research Assistant
Now more than ever, American industry is a focal point for foreign intelligence services, economic spies and criminals at large. Today, nearly all critical business and technology information is accessible through the cyber environment, giving all adversaries a faster, safer and more efficient way to penetrate the foundations of our economy. Their criminal endeavors compromise trade secrets, intellectual property and technological developments that are not only essential to our businesses, but also to national security. It's imperative that large and small companies understand the gravity of economic espionage, as it is highly prevalent and threatening in today's high-stakes competitive business world.
What constitutes economic espionage?
In general terms, economic espionage is the unlawful or clandestine targeting or acquisition of sensitive financial, trade or economic policy information; proprietary economic information; or technological information.1
The Economic Espionage Act of 1996 (EEA), Title 18 U.S.C.§§ 1831-1839, defines the term "economic espionage" as the theft or misappropriation of a trade secret with the intent or knowledge that the offense will benefit any foreign government, foreign instrumentality, or foreign agent. The act of receiving, purchasing, or possessing a trade secret known to have been stolen or misappropriated, as well as any attempt or conspiracy to commit economic espionage are punishable as a federal crime under the EEA.2
Why should I be concerned about economic espionage?
The FBI estimates billions of U.S. dollars are lost to foreign adversaries each year. These foreign competitors deliberately target economic intelligence in advanced technologies and flourishing U.S. industries. Costly data theft litigation, loss of business, drastic depreciation of corporate value and negative publicity are merely a few reasons to be well-educated on economic espionage. All organizations possess confidential data — "trade secrets" — such as personal employee information, consumer lists, financial details, research reports, etc. In the face of industrial espionage, such sensitive proprietary information could potentially threaten business profits, numerous jobs, and our economy as a whole. Much of this classified information is critical to our national security and research projects, thereby posing potential damage on a national scale.
For example, in the research and development phase of government project bidding, millions of dollars are spent in order to determine optimal production methods, material costs, and amount of labor necessary for the bid. If this intelligence is leaked, overseas business competitors (including those in ally countries) will gain an enormous and unjust advantage. According to Compliance Training Group, frequently targeted industries are private and educational institutions that aid U.S. Government projects, in addition to those that "conduct research on high-tech industrial applications, information technology and aerospace projects."3 Corporations that carry out their own research and development and allocate money to manufacturing process experiments are always at risk for espionage.
What methods are used to conduct economic espionage?
According to the FBI, foreign competitors function under three categories to devise an elaborate network of spies:
1. Aggressively target present and former foreign nationals working for US companies and research institutions;
2. Recruit and perform technical operations to include bribery, discreet theft, dumpster diving (in search of discarded trade secrets) and wiretapping; and,
3. Establish seemingly innocent business relationships between foreign companies and US industries to gather economic intelligence including proprietary information.4
What are the legal ramifications for committing economic espionage and theft of trade secrets?5
Whether you call it economic espionage, industrial espionage, theft of trade secrets or corporate espionage, it is a federal criminal offense as defined by the Economic Espionage Act of 1996. There are two main sections of the Act: 18 U.S.C. § 1831 (a) criminalizes the theft of trade secrets to benefit a foreign power, company or individual; 18 U.S.C. § 1832 (b) criminalizes domestic theft for commercial or economic purposes. Theft, unauthorized use, purchase and/or possession, attempting to commit the aforementioned, and conspiring are all considered violations of both sections. Although the definitions are nearly interchangeable, the statutory penalties differ slightly.
Under Economic Espionage (18 U.S.C. § 1831 (a)):
- Individual: Up to 15-year imprisonment and/or a maximum fine of $500,000.00
- Organization: Up to $10 million fine
Under Theft of Trade Secrets (18 U.S.C. § 1832 (b)):
- Individual: Up to 10-year imprisonment and/or a fine (unknown amount)
- Organization: Up to $5 million fine
How to Recognize Signs of Economic Espionage:
First and foremost, you must heed potential warning signs of espionage, particularly within your business. The following may be indications of an individual engaging in espionage acts:
1. Employee may suddenly have a change in ideology, developing a cynical and negative view of the company, its key people or even the U.S. Government.
2. Individuals trying to obtain unauthorized information may arrive for work early, work through lunch or stay late to gain access to information without raising suspicion.
3. Individuals involved in long-term espionage will avoid taking vacations in fear of their activities being discovered during their absence.
4. Uncharacteristic or extravagant employee spending on travel, houses, cars, etc.
5. Be wary of disgruntled employees, who are often motivated by revenge.
6. Blackmail is a possible factor when an executive is trapped in a shameful or compromising position.
7. Romance and sexual relationships seem cliché, but nonetheless are real methods employed to access confidential information.
8. Addictions such as gambling, drugs, and sex can lead to compromising situations and, ultimately, the theft of sensitive information.
9. Information loss takes place not only within the organization, but also through suppliers and customers who have access to your company data.
What are some economic espionage countermeasures?
1. Recognize the threat (see above).
2. Identify which information is to be protected, and across what time span.
3. Identify and determine the monetary/competitive value of all trade secrets in case information is stolen and you need to effectively prosecute and recover the damages.
4. Devise and enforce a definable plan for protecting trade secrets and reviewing the status of specific safeguards (perhaps some data no longer require protection).
5. Ensure that confidential information is marked appropriately and that your staff understands this requirement.
6. Properly store physical trade secrets in secure, authorized areas.
7. Utilize necessary disposal procedures and effective disposal equipment to shred, delete and destroy confidential data when no longer needed.
8. Conduct pre-employment and sporadic background investigations of all who have access to company's sensitive information.
9. Implement regular security training for employees, along with mental health and job activity screenings of employees.
10. Utilize an internal threat program.
11. Proactively report suspicious incidents before your proprietary information is irreversibly compromised.
12. Your Information Technology system should be designed to prohibit access to sensitive materials and to trace and immediately report potential breaches of security.

Drug-Resistant Depression Improves With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Patients unresponsive to antidepressants can benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy, and their depression may even enter remission, says a new study.
FRIDAY, Dec. 7, 2012 — In the United States, depression is the leading cause of disability, affecting 15 million people each year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. And while many people with depression who are prescribed antidepressants improve — and even go into remission — some remain unresponsive to drug treatment.
Researchers from the University of Bristol in Great Britain are reporting that a certain type of talk therapy had a dramatic impact on individuals in their study whose depression didn't respond to drugs. Based on their findings, they recommend that clinicians treating depression suggest cognitive behavioral therapy to patients as the next course of action, when antidepressants are ineffective.
Cognitive behavior therapy is a type of psychological counseling that teaches a person how to think in healthy ways. Rather than helping a patient rehash his or her childhood experiences, as is sometimes the case in traditional psychotherapy or psychoanalysis, a cognitive behavioral therapist helps a patient become mindful of how patterns of thought and perception influence behaviors and actions.
In cognitive behavior treatment, the therapist and patient work together to develop pragmatic solutions and coping skills, tackling problems that range from panic attacks to substance abuse, and even medical problems that can affect a person psychologically, such as chronic pain, sleep disorders, and obesity.
Patients focus on altering thought patterns and behaviors to tackle underlying emotional challenges. In cognitive behavior therapy, therapists take on a role similar to that of a personal trainer, and offer guidance and practical help, while the patient is expected to do "the work," some of which occurs outside of therapy sessions. Unlike ongoing psychotherapy or the long-term treatment known as psychoanalysis, cognitive behavior therapy is short-term, with patients typically ending treatment after 12 to 18 sessions.
In the Bristol study, which appears in the British medical journal The Lancet, the focus was on patients age 18 and older who didn't respond to psychotropic medications. The 469 study participants were randomly assigned to groups to either continue drug therapy or supplement medication with cognitive behavior therapy.
Within half a year, 46 percent of the 234 patients in therapy experienced a reduction in depressive symptoms, compared with 22 percent who continued to only take medications. Patients receiving cognitive behavior therapy reported continued improvements in depressive symptoms after a year.

A Norfolk Rivers Trust project sponsored by WWF UK and Coca Cola, supported by the Norfolk Rivers IDB
Finding a natural chalk-stream channel
The potential of this project was first identified by Dr Nigel Holmes, who sadly did not live to see its completion.
The aerial photo (1946) above (click on photo for higher res) shows a part of the River Nar which was changed from its natural course hundreds of years ago when the mill-leat for the downstream mill was cut: the straight channel flowing arrow-straight down the west (left) side of the image. Look east a few yards and you'll see a section of abandoned, natural river highlighted with a blue line.
This relic channel is a true rarity on English chalk-streams. More or less every yard of every river has been modified for one reason or another. To find 500 yards left more or less as the Ice-Age made them is the chalk-stream equivalent of finding the tomb of Tutankhamun.
This project offered the opportunity to restore 500 yards of almost completely unmodified chalk-stream – something that would become a vital reference site for other restoration projects on the River Nar – but also to try to re-create that natural channel with a replica channel which would re-connect the relic channel to the main river downstream.
Channelisation of the river: straightening and the incision of the river bed deep into the land – is dominant physical habitat limitation on the River Nar. The river has been so extensively modified that it is almost impossible to find reference reaches of undisturbed planform and cross-section. At Emmanuel's Common, not only was the old meander sequence traceable, but the immediate landscape is undisturbed wet waterside meadow and wild-wood. Emmanuel's Common was a unique opportunity on the River Nar to re-create a natural, fully meandering chalk-stream channel flowing through and intimately connected with a wet woodland and meadow riparian landscape. The ecological value of the restored reach would be immense.
The first job was to survey the relic channel, not only to investigate the characteristics of an unmodified chalk-stream, but also to find reference dimensions of cross-sectional shape and meander pattern for the replica channel.
Planning the Replica Channel
The lower channel accounted for 80% of the project time. The available route passed through a slightly raised part of the flood-plain and in the middle reaches it was a challenge to peel away enough ground to make the correct, naturally shallow cross-section. There was very little gradient to play with too.
We took extensive levels of the site. Estimates of gravel depth were sounded using a road-pin driven through the peat. The attached PDF shows how the proposed pool and riffle heights were calculated relative to the existing floodplain and gravel-depth. In fact the gradient proved very tricky. The main river to which the new channel eventually returned had been dredged, and its water level dropped considerably between planning the project and winter delivery. In order to set the tail riffle at the correct height to dovetail with future restorations downstream we had to create a steep chute where the new channel entered the old (this chute is drowned out in summer).
The density and depth of gravel varied greatly. In some places we had an excess and some we had none. Inevitably there was a step as the new channel fell into the over-deep old channel: and here there was very little gravel at the correct depth. Because this step would be very liable to erosion in winter this had to be armoured with gravel moved from elsewhere on the site. Ground conditions were very challenging. It was worth the effort though. When the flows finally broke through the new channel worked perfectly, with good velocity and no unintentional impoundments.
Restoring the relic channel
This was as close to actual river restoration as is possible: like peeling varnish off an old painting. A delicate job if the painting is not to be damaged. In practice we went so lightly that it was quite easy. Helen Mandley supervised and Wayne on the digger performed with great sensitivity. See the photos below for the fuller picture. Amazingly there was very little sediment in the relic channel. Within an hour the flows had scoured their way to the gravel.
This project has been a team effort over the years and Nigel's early involvement is a reminder of that. I'm sure he would have been chuffed to see it come to fruition. The delivery team included WWF and Coca Cola as sponsors, the Norfolk Rivers Trust, the Norfolk Rivers Drainage Board, Richard Hey, Holkham Estate, The Castle Acre Fishing Club, Natural England and others.

Can't see him ever leaving Cliftonville at this stage
Jeepers. That's some serious money to be splashing on a player.
Can't see him ever leaving Cliftonville at this stage
This could all be absolute nonsense btw. Ive notice a poster with a Cliftonville badge on here before so perhaps they would know better.
Fair enough, not particularly bothered either way just so happened that someone in work had told me all that about Gormley today.
Anyway Derry have signed Norwegian striker Tim Nilsen. Scored two against Harps the other night wasnt at the game so dont know how good or otherwise he looked.
Hmm, I think that reads in a different tone to how it sounded in my head! Have known Mr Parker a while and would be fairly confident he has an inside track on things.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/collisions - New music. It's not that bad.
We have signed striker Martin Rennie from Montrose. He looks to be a player with a lot of heart, but coming to the LOI will be an acid test.
Midfielder, Ali Cootes signed for Waterford from Brentford this evening
Rovers did try to sign him and he signed a longer contract with his home town club. U could say it was a la k of ambition not to want to go full time but when u look at all the players that leave their home town to go away and end up miserable maybe he is just a guy who is happy to play in front of his friends and family every weekend.
Ridiculous comparison I know but was watching a sky sports show recently about Stephen Gerard and he said when he didn't move to Chelsea and sacrificed winning the leagues etc the deciding factor was his dad telling him he even if he won leagues with Chelsea it wouldn't mean as much. People accused him of a lack of ambition to go and win things. Not equating the two players but the hometown is a draw for some
Pats have a centre back who plays for the Tampa Bay Rowdies on trial at the moment, played yesterday against Wexford
We've signed Kyron Stabana from Wimbledon on loan. Sounds like one or two more loans to come in from the UK over the next couple of weeks. Hard to know what the quality will be. Waterford had great success with loan moves in 2018, we had far less with our loans in 2019.
Unusual situation at top of IL this season with 4 in with a real chance of winning it (5 if Clifftonville make up ground) but more importantly is the CL league spot.
Also note this season IL are reduced to 3 teams in Europe, so the chase is on not to miss out, 60k outlay small beer if a CL spot can be secured, even the lesser prize of 250k for EL qualifcation.

There are seven primary steps that must be followed in order to ensure a smooth flow of your kitchen remodeling process. These steps include:
1. Obtaining legal authorization for the kitchen remodel.
There are different kitchen renovation permit regulations for every city or town. This step involves the conversion of your remodeling design into documents giving the details of construction. The documents are then submitted to the appropriate authorities who will issue a construction permit and finalize the approval.
2. Demolition process.
This second step is applicable in the early phase of kitchen remodeling and involves the disconnection of all gas, electrical and water lines joining the existing ranges, lights, receptacles and sinks. All of the old appliances, cabinets, floor coverings, countertops and lights are removed.
3. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing.
This step entails bringing cables, pipes and wires to their appropriate locations. At this stage, the project manager will perform inspections to make sure that the work is carried out properly.
4. The closing of the kitchen remodel.
This step involves dry-walling any walls that are open, painting and laying down the flooring and patching any holes. Once this process is done, we will adjust the base cabinets at the topmost part of the new floor. We will take measurements of cabinet tops for fabrication. While waiting for the completed countertops, the wall cabinets will be adjusted and the appliances installed.
5. Completion stage.
After the countertop installation, we will set tiles at the kitchen backsplash and install the faucet. We will also connect the appliances and install the device plates and light fixtures. A final touch up marks the completion of the kitchen remodeling process.
Start enjoying your refurbished kitchen.
A final inspection will be completed and then you will get to see your new beautiful kitchen.

For me October is the pumpkin month. Maybe this is due to the approaching Halloween holiday.
So I thought to share some pumpkin based recipe…maybe you will find inspiration for the Halloween dinner party.
Not only that the pumpkin has a unique taste that work wonderful in soups, main courses of desserts, but also it is wonderful vegetable: full in beta-carotene, potassium, vitamin B6, vitamin C and E, magnesium, phosphorus, iron and fiber.
Due to the fact that is a seasonal vegetable (found in fall and winter) I say we cook it in as many way as we can in this period.
I will start with a soup recipe, easy and delicious: Pumpkin and sage soup
You will need:
- 1,5 kg of pumpkin, pealed and with no seeds
- 1,5 l of vegetable soup
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of chopped sage
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 chopped onions
- 1 tablespoon honey
- a few chopped strands of chives
- black pepper
The recipe is easy and it will be done in almost an hour:
- Start by melting the oil and the butter in a heat resistant pan. Then add the sage and the onion and saute them for almost 15 minutes, until they soften.
- Now is time to add the pumpkin and stir continuously for 5 minutes. After these 5 minutes will pass, add the honey and the vegetable soup and and boil everything until the pumpkin is soften.
- Leave the soup to cool for a while then pass it in a blender. Add salt and some vegetable soup or water, if the cream is to thick.
Before you serve it reheat it. You can garnish it with some black pepper and chives.
For a much interesting serving you can choose to serve it in the pumpkin instead of a classic plate.

Lately I've been getting a lot of unsolicited phones sales calls. How they know to call when I have my hands full I'll never know. I've gotten smart and used the little trick on my phone that announces out loud who the caller is. That way if the phone rings and I hear Siri say, "Unknown Caller" I know I can go about my work and enjoy the vibration in my pocket. Continue reading Sometimes I Make Them Cry

Birthday Reflections
Today is my birthday. At my age birthdays merely become days of reflection. When a person is young, a birthday means parties and presents. As you reach my age presents become redundant because after all what do you get a man who has everything. And parties are no big thing because frankly it took all of my stamina to stay up late enough to see the Cubs receive the Major League Trophy early this morning. Continue reading Birthday Reflections
Stop The Hate
It doesn't matter! Black white, yellow, red, grey or green we are all the same. All lives matter.
If you want to argue about something, lets have a political discussion. There's plenty of hate and bigotry there already to go around. We don't need to add any more of our own.
Keep the guns on the range not in the street.
I'm Coming Out
There is something I've been dealing with in silence for a long time. Now is finally the time for me to come out with the truth. I think my wife, Snowball, has been suspecting for some time. Some of my friends have been able to see this in me without my saying a thing – they just expect it. So there's no other way to say it than to just say it. I'm coming out in support of Trump's candidacy for president.* Continue reading I'm Coming Out
The Right to Bear Arms Protects Us
So another terrorist attack this time in Paris. Over a hundred citizens dead. Half a dozen dead terrorists looking for nonexistent virgins. Guess what? This all happens in a country with very strong gun control.
These guys had to smuggle AK-47s and bomb materials into one of the biggest cities in Europe. And they did it with little or no online chatter found by the government authorities. Why was there no warning? Continue reading The Right to Bear Arms Protects Us
The Politicians Get It Wrong Again
Well, another month, another mass shooting. And the politicians once again fall all over themselves telling the American sheeple that its all the fault of poor gun control. As if there's a bunch of feral semi-automatics that have slipped their leash and are walking around by themselves needing to be rounded up by the humane society to be put to sleep. While the back pocket of the crazy person that the gun is hanging out of has nothing to do with it.
This may be an old saying but I'm going to keep saying this until someone hears it. Guns don't kill people! Crazy people kill people! Continue reading The Politicians Get It Wrong Again
Donald Trump Is Saving Our Democracy — NYMag
I found this excellent article worth reading. Trump is fulfilling the purpose I expected from him some months ago. He is showing the ludicrousness of the simple popularity poll most call the presidential election. Please take some time to check out the following link.
Far from destroying it, he's exposing all its phoniness and corruption in ways as serious as he is not. And changing it in the process.
We Interrupt Our Regular Broadcast
I know you may be anxiously awaiting the next installment of my family vacation. But anyone who knows me and knows that I spent a decade and half as a broadcaster, also knows that I'm gonna have a few things to say about recent events in Virginia. I don't want to disappoint.
This was a workplace shooting
When I first heard of the shooting I assumed it was some screwball TV viewer who had fixated on a journalist they saw everyday and felt the reporter had wronged them. Something like that would not have been hard to believe. After all since the seventies the technology has existed to allow even small stations to produce live interviews and stand-ups from anywhere. During thousands of these live shots everyday, journalists are hanging their butt out there in the wind, unprotected. This killing was a terrible thing.
But the reality of this incident is that was only another in a long line of workplace shootings. It could have just as easily happened in the newsroom or the business office as anywhere else out in the field. The biggest difference I see happening this time is that someone with a gun has finally done something to piss off an industry that can actually incite the public about gun violence and gun control. The folks at home listen to broadcasters and believe what they say is true. What I fear is broadcasters will do the wrong thing for the right reason.
We need crazy people control
If you've read this blog for any length of time you probably know how I feel about gun control. If not, read it now, I'll wait right here for you. If you're in a hurry here it is in a nutshell. Guns don't kill people, crazy people kill people. Just take a look at the recent theater and school shootings. Do you think those guys were right minded when they did that? We need to outlaw crazy. Insanity is not a defense! Its an offense.
There's no excuse for allowing crazy people to get near a gun anymore. The crazies are easy to spot. The guy today had been dumping his crap to Twitter and Facebook for years. All we have to do is monitor social media feeds and look for certain keywords. The tools for this are already in place! Do you hear me NSA?
In addition, we need to not be afraid to react to signs of crazy. Today's shooter had faxed a TWENTY-THREE PAGE MANIFESTO to an ABC newsroom. The news director there should have seen this and called 911 immediately. If they didn't arrest the sender for terroristic threats they could have gotten him for endangering the rain forest because of his over-use of paper
But I'm betting that this will create another outcry for gun control. Hillary has already twittered politically opportunistic words to that effect instead of just offering words of support to victims family at an emotionally trying time. What a surprise that is!
We don't need gun control! We need crazy people control. Please, will someone smarter than me figure out how to see these nut jobs ahead of time, control them and put an end to gun violence.
I promise tomorrow to continue the vacation story.
It Wasn't Always Like This
Ok kids listen up. Before there were cell phones, before there was social media, before there were e-readers and roleplaying games, there was people. And people used to talk to each other face-to-face. It was damn inconvenient and at times unsanitary but there it is – the truth – folks used to talk and be together at the same time.

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry specializing in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of jaw, face and bite irregularities (malocclusions*). Orthodontic treatment is provided by an oral health care provider known as an orthodontist, who has completed two to three years of additional training beyond dental school.
Recent years have brought about many changes within the dental industry, specifically with regards to orthodontic treatment and care. Now more than ever patients are experiencing fewer incidences of cavities and missing teeth due to the heightened awareness of fluoride use and preventative dentistry. This increasing awareness on the health and look of a patient's smile has fueled the desire for many to seek out orthodontia not only as a medical necessity, but for cosmetic reasons as well.
Whether it's traditional braces or custom made removable appliances, orthodontics can help you have the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you've been waiting for!
Give us a call today and schedule your orthodontic consultation!
*Malocclusion is the technical term for teeth that don't fit together correctly. Malocclusions not only affect the teeth, but also the appearance of the face. Most malocclusions are inherited; however some are due to acquired habits such as thumb sucking and tongue thrusting. The spacing left from an adult tooth being extracted or an early loss of a baby tooth can also contribute to a malocclusion.
Who thought you could look forward to going to the dentist? It's true I do. I have been going to Dr. Roya Zandparsa for 10 years.
She crowned my two front teeth and they look natural and perhaps better than the originals. The office is lovely and the staff are so helpful and friendly. Her work is flawless.
Dr. Roya makes you feel like you are a friend just dropping by to visit.
Heather S.
I have unfortunately had more than my share of dentists and dental work over the past 50 years. I have never come across a dentist more gifted and caring than Dr. Roya Zandparsa. It started with a simple chip in my front tooth about a decade ago, a chip that had been repaired and failed twice. In 30 minutes Dr. Zandparsa repaired it so that it looked better than I could ever have hoped and, needless to say, she has never had to touch it again. There is not one thing that she has done to my teeth that was not done perfectly. My trust in Dr. Zandparsa is absolute - technically and ethically. I am pleased that she is quite a bit younger than me as I certainly hope that she will be my dentist for the rest of my life. As I say to her, "my teeth belong to Roya".

Crafty CFridayFriday, October 15, 2010
{Welcome to the third installment.}
You might think that after my husband told me, "I think you have a problem…" on my third straight project one afternoon OR after my sister-in-law called to tell me she had a dream where Tyler died and my method of coping was to just start doing a thousand projects {probably true, but hopefully not prophetic}, that I would scale back on all my DIY projects. But no dice.
I guarantee if TGrass saw the cost difference between what is and what could be were I not so thrifty, he would definitely opt for the Crafty Cfridays {and Saturdays and Sundays…}.
So, here we go. My latest projects
My favorite as of late are my pillows for the living room sofa. I initially made a solid burlap one. I liked the look, but not the feel so I remade it with a burlap back and linen fabric on the front.
I found simple instructions online, cut all the pieces according to size, pulled out my sewing machine, and spent approximately 86.3 hours trying to thread the bobbin.
I called my mom, who asked, "What kind of relationship do you have with a glue gun?" when she heard I was working with burlap. When the Queen of All Things Sewing recommends a glue gun, you listen. So I glued and there you have it. I made two of them and it cost less than $10 in total. {Burlap = $3/yd and green linen = $7/yd, but I only needed 1/2 a yard.}
But I wasn't done…
The point of making my own pillows is to save money so I can afford to have seasonal pillow covers. And to make them seasonal, I wanted to paint leaf silhouettes on them. I ended up going another route, but here's what I came up with and how I got there…
I made my own stencils using blank stencil paper I bought for $3. I printed a big "g" and a pear silhouette from the computer, traced it onto the stencil paper and cut it out with a craft knife.
I chose a "g" when I saw this and a pear once I found the pillows behind them. {I scored at PB—they were on clearance, baby.} And there you have it! My $5 pillows…
My next project, I SWEAR I did yesterday, before The Nester posted this today. I'd seen the vinyls she featured and decided to do it myself using black contact paper (shelf liner). I google image'd "bird silhouette" and found one I like, printed it, cut it out, and traced it backwards on the contact paper.
And there you have it! It literally cost pennies to make… (I already had the candle jar.) And I have a ton of contact paper left so the possibilities are endless…
I also made that runner for my coffee table with the burlap left over from the pillows and painted on the design with a stencil and white fabric paint.
So that's it! My next project is paint stripes on white curtains since I'm so into painting fabric right now and since all I seem to do these days is
straight copy learn from The Nester (and I can't seem to find fabric like this to safe my life…)
Coming soon to a window near my kitchen table…

No one else can give us permission to be ourselves- to offer who we are in all our messiness and magnificence to the world. That permission- it's an inside job. ~Oriah Mountain Dreamer
have you ever really lost yourself in a daydream? and then came back wholly new?
inquiry for today~ these challenging times may be the best time to sit awhile and replenish your vision…..let it be today……
And as Nisargadatta used to say, just simply abide in the sense of 'I am'. And as I suggest to people, just abide in the sense, the felt sense of 'I'. Just that. Keep it extraordinary simple. You can do it when you are meditating. You can do it when you are doing work around your house. Of course, if you have to use the mind, you will not be able to engage in this in the same time. But when you are driving your car, when you are walking around, when you are doing a hundred things during a day, you can actually feel into the sense of 'I'. And as you do that, your experience of it will become less and less distinct. By that I mean, you will feel less and less the distinct, separate entity with given discernible boundaries. ~Adyashanti

Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing
102nd Running of the Indianapolis 500
Verizon IndyCar Series
CARB DAY NOTES/QUOTES – May 25, 2018
1) Tony Kanaan 227.791 mph 38 laps
6) Takuma Sato 224.083 mph 38 laps
11) Oriol Servia 223.537 mph 41 laps
21) Graham Rahal 222.526 mph 51 laps
GRAHAM RAHAL, No. 15 United Rentals Dallara/Honda/Firestone: "At the end of the session the United Rentals Honda was pretty good. We definitely, at the very tail end of the session got it into a decent window. We just ran used tires from the start and I know a lot of guys were running stickers (new tires) but we wanted to save a lot of stickers for the race and I think we just ran them too long initially and probably made our lives a little tough but for sure we got the car much better in the end. (In traffic) We'll be okay. We don't have the quickest outright pace, which has kind of been the case all month, but at the end of the session in heavy traffic I felt pretty good. Obviously tire life and stuff plays a role so we'll have to see how we are on Sunday."
FAST FACTS: Will be his 11th Indy 500. His best qualifying position in the Indy 500 is fourth in 2009 with Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing and best finish is third with Service Central Chip Ganassi Racing in 2011 after he led six laps. He ran in the top-five in six of his nine previous races here. Detailed Indy 500 information available upon request. Has SIX IndyCar Series wins (2008 – St. Pete street course; 2015 – Fontana Super Speedway, Mid-Ohio road course; 2016 – Texas Super Speedway; 2017 Detroit Race 1, Detroit Race 2) and THREE poles (2009 – St. Pete street course, Kansas oval; 2017 – Detroit Race 1 street) and his highest series season-ending standing is fourth place in 2015… He dropped from being tied for third in the standings to sixth with 142 points, only 10 out of third place.
TAKUMA SATO, No. 30 Mi-Jack / Panasonic Dallara/Honda/Firestone: "It was a relatively short session today for Carb Day. We went through a run plan and checked various things. In traffic I was reasonably happy. We still need to work on it but now race day is approaching and I think we are ready."
FAST FACTS: Reigning winner of the 2017 Indy 500. The 2018 race will be his ninth Indy 500 and second with RLL. In 2012 with RLL, he was alongside eventual winner Franchitti in Turn 1 on the final lap but his race ended due to contact after he was squeezed down on the apron and lost control of his race car. Prior to his 2017 win with Andretti from his best start of fourth place, his highest finish was 13th in 2013 and 2015 – both with A.J. Foyt Racing… Has TWO IndyCar Series wins (2013 – Long Beach street course, 2017 – Indy 500 oval) and SEVEN poles (2011 Iowa oval, Edmonton street; 2013 Houston Race 1 street; 2014 St. Pete street, Detroit Race 2 street; 2017 Detroit Race 2, Pocono oval). He is 13th in series point standings with 90 points.
ORIOL SERVIA, No. 64 Scuderia Corsa / Manitowoc Dallara/Honda/Firestone, entered by Scuderia Corsa with RLL: "Well the last practice before the race finally happened. It still shows that it's definitely going to be a challenge to pass people. I don't think just for us, I think for everyone. But the good news is that I had the best car I had all week, just in time for the race coming up. I couldn't be happier in a way. The pit stops we did were good, the car felt good and I think we made a definite improvement on how the car behaves. A long race ahead of us and a lot of right choices still to be made, but again, I feel better than any other time at this point so can't wait!"
FAST FACTS: The 2018 Indy 500 will be Servia's 10th in the famed race and fifth with RLL. His best finish overall is fourth in 2012 with Dreyer & Reinbold and best start is third in 2011 with Newman/Haas Racing. In the 2009 Indianapolis 500 with RLL, Servia was in ninth place halfway through the race when a mechanical failure led to his retirement in 26th place. In 2014, he competed for the team in Long Beach, at Barber Motorsports Park and two events at Indianapolis Motor Speedway where he led seven laps in the road course race but finished 12th, qualified 18th for the Indy 500 and finished 11th. In 2015, Servia retired in 29th place from the Indy 500 with RLL after Ed Carpenter attempted an inside pass while Servia was 15th and took both drivers out of the race after 112 of 200 laps… A native of Pals, Spain, Servia has made 202 starts in CART, Champ Car and the IndyCar Series since his rookie season in 2000. His Indy car highlights include one win (Montreal 2005) and one pole (Surfers Paradise, Australia 2005) as well as a total of 19 top-three, 51 top-five and 101 top-10 finishes.

The Hungarian veto and the fate of the EU-Turkey deal
On Monday, heads of the European Union member states gathered for yet another summit, attempting to reach an agreement on how to respond to the migration crisis that the EU has been struggling with now for more than a year.
As talks continued into the early hours of Tuesday, reports emerged that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán vetoed that part of the proposed EU-Turkey agreement that would have established a mechanism for the direct resettlement of migrants from Turkey to the EU. Striking a deal with Turkey had been the main reason for Monday's summit, but the points under discussion changed so drastically during the course of the day that the proposal barely resembled the draft that had preceded it.
Going into the meeting, the Turkish side of the negotiations was expected to offer measures to support European Union border security, to curtail the uncontrolled and unmanaged flow of illegal migrants traveling to Europe in return for financial aid from the EU to manage the burden. The Turkish delegation, however, brought a few surprises on Monday. Turkey upped the price by asking for twice as much in financial assistance – an additional 3 billion euro on top of the 3 billion already committed – as well as a relocation plan to take migrants from Turkey to the European Union, visa-free travel to the EU for Turkish citizens, and a reopening of negotiations on Turkey's EU membership.
As the EU Council prepares to meet again on Thursday, Hungary is not the only member opposed to the latest plan.
"The way it played out was that the Turks came here at noon and put on the table a proposal that touches on four, very difficult issue areas," issues that had not been on the table, said Prime Minister Orbán Monday evening. "That cannot happen," he said.
By the morning, however, the lengthy summit managed to produce some results. The approved text of the summit document says that the Western Balkans migration route must be brought under control. The migration resettlement scheme, firmly opposed by the Orbán Government and others will not yet go into effect due to a declaration issued by Slovakia and Hungary upholding the right to reject it as well as a similar initiative from Poland.
Hungary had been one of the first and most outspoken proponents of working with Turkey to better manage the migration crisis, but after Monday's summit, the latest is not encouraging.
The problem is that, as the prime minister has said, "Europe underestimates herself." Europe failed to muster the will and exercise the power to overcome the crisis on its own. Instead of protecting its own borders, it sought to delegate the task to Turkey. In a collective failure that defies common sense, the continent refused to rally behind the need to defend the Union's physical borders, and essentially looked instead to contract out to Turkey a border protection service.
"A continent of 500 million can never afford to have its security dependent on a country of 71-something million," PM Orbán explained in a radio interview last Friday.
"There are 500 million Europeans. That means there are more of us than the Americans and Russians combined. We are one of the most developed economic regions of the world. Our technical tools, development, and financial power makes it possible for us to protect ourselves. So why do we need to beg for protection from a country of seventy-something million instead of us protecting ourselves? No one understands this," the prime minister said.
Although Hungary had helped initiate the negotiations with Turkey, the prime minister noted that agreements with countries like Turkey that border Europe are important, but these agreements "never replace and never make up for [our] own [self-]protection."
Europe's self-protection, as easy as it sounds, depends on an essential element: member states must uphold the obligations they accept when they sign a treaty. The rules of Schengen and the Dublin Protocol regulate migration and border control in the European Union. These rules must be respected. If a member state cannot comply with these rules, the other member states of the European Union should of course help in solidarity, but the rules must be followed. It's not impossible: Hungary has shown that land borders can be protected. Beyond the EU, Australia has demonstrated for some time that sea borders can also be protected. Where there's a will, there's a way.
On the question of visa-free travel and moving forward with EU accession talks, the Hungarian standpoint remains that Ukraine should take priority over Turkey.
Prime Minister Orbán's veto on Monday night night of the mechanism for resettlement of migrants in the EU, a veto backed by others as well, signaled a response to Turkey demanding more on three very difficult issue areas that were sprung on the Council on Monday. Considering the way it was done, it should come as no surprise that the plan was vetoed. An agreement with Turkey should be achieved, however – and President of the European Council Donald Tusk is authorized to continue the negotiations – but it should not be the only thing Europe pursues. If the EU is to have a stronger negotiating position, it must resolve to strengthen its own borders.

Kristian Laliberte, NYC Editor
What I'm Wearing: "Well I'm definitely patriotic, eh? This was right before my haircut, so I'm wearing a Club Monaco hat, the seersucker shorts are from American Apparel and are perfect for the heat, the T-shirt is Saturdays Surf NYC (I always get stopped—"Dude, where do you surf?" Hint: I don't.), and the shirt and the belt are both scores from the A.P.C. sample sale. The shoes are Stubbs & Wootton in the barbed-wire stitching. Connie likes to call them slippers and I get pissed."
My Warm-Weather Beauty Tip: "I've said before and I won't stop saying it—Clyde Elezi at The Drawing Room is a genius. He recently started doing Keratin treatments for guys, which is cool when you don't want to frizz all over the place."
Favorite Go-To Restaurant: "I've ordered a Energy Kitchen Buffalo Chicken Burger every work day for the past two weeks. It's 385 calories that tastes like 800. For not eating on top of a takeout bag, Extra Virgin is a delicious summer spot—snag a seat on the terrace and order a Sancerre."
On My To-Do List: "A real vacation. I still have a lot of days left, and I can't decide where I want to go. I'm debating between South Africa with the family, Miami with the guys, or an extended Nantucket weekend. Also, I'd like to go to the gym in the morning, a resolution I had the last time. That worked out."

|nMedia MCESKB 2.4GHz Wireless Slim Trackball Keyboard
|Reviews - Featured Reviews: Input Devices
|Written by Olin Coles
|Saturday, 07 April 2007
Page 3 of 3
Wireless Keyboard Performance
While the standard keyboard is plug and play, the nMedia System MCESKB does require just a few steps before you are functional. These steps were short and sweet, and I found installation was simple enough for any user regardless of skill level. Here are the steps performed:
As previously listed in the specifications, the nMedia System MCESKB claims to have a range of 50 feet. My living room only offered me 46 feet between the HTPC which the receiver was connected to, and the keyboard sitting on the dining room table. There was a clear line of sight, and so therefore the performance was good; but I did notice some loss of range when I used the keyboard near it's indicated maximum range with other 2.4GHz products nearby. This was an extreme exaggeration of normal use, because most people will not even see the screen from 50 feet away, much less have the living room space to accomodate the maximum range.
Also of great benefit is the auto-power feature. Even though there is a power switch, the nMedia MCESKB Keyboard will go into a standby mode after two minutes of inactivity. This is the secret behind the decent battery life I received with tiny AAA batteries.
Conclusion: nMedia MCESKB
The nMedia System MCESKB is a keeper, and I will continue to use it with my HTPC. The 2.4GHz RF range is more then adequate for even large living room use, and yet still allows for expanded functionality in board room presentations or the classroom. Battery life was ample, since I do not use the keyboard for prolonged daily use it seems that AAA batteries are well tailored for the slim keyboard. While accountants may not appreciate the missing 10-key, everyone else will enjoy the same familiar feel that these keys maintain in comparison to a standard keyboard. The upper hotkeys were decent enough, considering they rarely get used, but the left/right mouse function keys could use a bit more seperation. Finally, the trackball is a perfect fit: not too small, and not too large.
So where's the bad news? Well, aside from minor mouse button placement, there weren't too many flaws to be found at all. Over the past few months I have twice been a consumer shopping for a wireless keyboard for use with my living room HTPC. The first thing I learned while shopping was that these keyboards can be very expensive, however the nMedia System MCESKB offers excellent functionality with terrific value. At the time of this writing, the nMedia MCESKB 2.4GHz Wireless Slim Trackball Keyboard is available for a mere $44.99 at NewEgg.com. If this product were any less expensive, the good people at nMedia System would be giving them away. If you are looking for a wireless slim keyboard with great range and exceptional functionality, I highly recommend you purchase this product.
I will admit that I could go the extra mile and report if this unit is spill proof or if I could throw it accross the room and see if it still works, but I'm not going to. I want to keep mine.

The most prolific leadership researchers in the world say there are a few things that they know for absolute certainty. The most bedrock of all of those truths is a belief that you must possess. All great leaders must believe this one thing: You Matter!
All great leaders must believe this one thing: You Matter! CLICK TO TWEET
YOU will have a positive impact only if you believe that you can. If you don't believe that then you won't even try. It's true, leadership begins with you.
Since you matter, the question becomes, what difference will you make?
Be careful how you answer that question because your answer will probably come true. After analyzing the data from more than one million people (I told you they were prolific!),
Kouzes and Posner state emphatically: "Leadership is not about who you are or where you come from. It's about what you do."
Friends, that is great news! That means we can improve our leadership by changing our behavior.
When millennials were asked who was the most powerful leadership role model that they had ever met personally, they reported:
Two out of three of their role models were "ordinary people." That's you and that's me. We have far more influence than we know—and leadership is influence! (People older than 30 also had "family member" as their primary answer, and then had "business leader" as the second most at 23%).
These numbers are verified. This means that if you are a parent or if you work with younger people, you have more leadership impact in their lives than anyone else. And if you are a businessperson, you have significant influence over the people who work for you, especially over those who report directly to you.
We've got to get this through our thick heads! People are watching us and our behavior makes a difference.
This is the greatest workplace truth that you can remember: When it comes to age, gender, ethnicity, position, nationality, organizational size, industry, tenure, or education—all of those factors together account for less than 1 percent of the reason people feel engaged and positive about their work lives. The "leadership behavior of the boss" is the top indicator of being engaged at work.
The "leadership behavior of the boss" is the top indicator of being engaged at work. CLICK TO TWEET
The Bottom Line: Friends, YOU matter. Never forget that. YOU matter! Believe that and your behavior will make the world a better place.
