So I totally just bought my own train ticket to Budapest using my vast Hungarian vernacular. GO ME!
Of course I also totally cheated. I started with "Beszel Angolul?" meaning "Do you speak English?" and of course the answer was a resounding "No."
I then moved on to "Egy oda-vissza jegy Budapestre" which means "One return ticket to Budapest"
From there I was completely without language skills and so I pulled out my prepared schedule in written form (Szombat 06:39, Vasarnap 16:25) and badda-bing, I have my train ticket!
Yeah Baby!

WOW! Mandi!! I love reading about all your adventures! ha ha ha... I think random things happening to us is one of God's ways of encouraging us... If I ever have a day where I think, "What in the WORLD am I doing in THIS part of the WORLD and not in the part I understand?!" I then remember, "Wait, in the part I understand, things usually make sense... and really, what's the fun in that?"
God's continued blessings and encouragement and strength be yours!

Microsoft to Junk Flagship Products, Cites Java Settlement
Microsoft will phase out a slew of products as of December 15, citing its 2001 legal settlement with Sun Microsystems over Java as the impetus.
Among the products that Microsoft will no longer make available to customers through any of the Microsoft's sales channels are Windows 98, SQL Server 7 and a number of versions of Office 2000, according to a note from a Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) program manager posted to a public Microsoft newsgroup. It also appears some versions of NT 4.0 are also due to be phased out, but as the note is ambiguous on this point, it's impossible to tell which ones...

At the end of May i had another chance to visit Tegallalang in Bali. My last trip to that place just to see how was the Terrace Ceking, but at this trip i had a chance to spend a longer time there, had a lunch while enjoying the fresh air and nice scenery of Tegallalang. Ah, maybe one thing that made it a little bit … Continue reading Lunch at Ceking Terrace, Tegallalang
Dupa all around on the city and intersections, sculpture of gods, early morning pray, fruits stall arrangement, and crafts. Yess, those things were captured my eyes during my trip on Bali Island, Indonesia (saying this as if I'm not an Indonesia, kekekeke). As my first time there, I couldn't resist those sights and my mind as usual started to think random thing about it (that's … Continue reading Bali; Little Things that Attracted My Eyes
Last day, I think in each travel, holiday, trip, or whatever we might call it, always gives me 'I want to use it well, give it my all and my best' spirit. Rushing with dusk, I woke up at 5.00 am and at 6.00 I was well prepared, then directly put my step out of my room. With this '45 independence zest on me, I … Continue reading Suddenly Bali (III); Fussy Last Day, Kute – Legian
Still from day I, from Tegallalang, we drove to Kintamani, northern part of Tegallalang. With window open wider, we reached higher part of Bali Island, Kintamani (1730 m above sea level). As our car approaching Mount Batur, I felt the fresh air was kissing my cheeks, and the smell was touching my nose. Enjoying the feeling, without me realizing, suddenly I'd been faced the beautiful … Continue reading Suddenly Bali (II); Highland to Lowland; Kintamani to Legian
Suddenly Bali. After spending one night at Surabaya, I went to Bali, it was a sudden decision. I planned it H-2 before I got my field break. I usually plan a travel or holiday at least 2 months before my schedule. Since it was my first time, I was really enthusiast. With limited time, I prepared anything that I could prepare. I planed where to … Continue reading Suddenly Bali (I); Ubud – Tegallalang

• Richmond, Va., Police Chief Bryan Norwood resigned Tuesday after his role in approving Chris Brown's Virginia community service came under fire, reports Associated Press. Prosecutors in L.A allege that Brown never completed more than 800 hours of service in his native Virginia. Norwood personally supervised the case — taking over from the state's probation department — and signed the reports stating Brown had fulfilled his obligation to the court. Richmond Mayor Dwight Jones declined to say whether the Brown scandal played a role in Norwood's departure reports the Richmond Times-Dispatch: "We're waiting for the results of that investigation," he said.. Prosecutors say there were several days when the singer claimed he worked — but records show he was not even in Richmond at those times. Brown's next court hearing is scheduled for April.

There is an incredibly intricate little process that goes alongside crafting these little witterings you know? They're not just yanked out of thin air – as hard as that might be to believe. In 18 months of having this weird little corner of the web I've perfected my creative space, optimised for productivity.
Pseudo rat tail entirely optional. Stripes essential
It all starts with a set up much like that above. You'll note the tri-screen action which is absolutely essential to my process. iPhone to hand for those little procrastinating games of Two Dots (thank Christ that they provide only five free lives at a time). Laptop ready to catch the two minutes of glorious inspiration whenever it rears its head. iPad for the gentle background noise of a crappy 80s Netflix thriller. Or as this photo suggests the 12th episode of Person of Interest of the day. The part-complete crochet in front of me is for when Two Dots just doesn't provide a sufficient level of distraction.
The observant amongst you might have clocked the empty mug by my side. It's a slow and tortuous journey to a finished blog post. The P stands for something other than Pete. To buy a mug with my dogs' initial on would be insane no…?
I'm always accompanied by a spaniel. Perma-Pete we call him.
The actual crafting of a post goes something like this:
Log into WordPress (also log into Twitter, Facebook, Bloglovin and Sainsbury's).
Type a sentence.
Add some food to my shopping basket.
Delete aforementioned sentence.
Play with spaniel.
Put kettle on.
Read blog posts.
Re-type original sentence. Exactly. As. Was.
Check shopping basket. Decide a meal plan is essential.
Write up meal plan.
Crochet a little.
Play with spaniel.
Update shopping basket.
Decide my OCD won't permit me to stop in the middle of a row.
Hand cramp. Play Two Dots.
Google hand cramp as a symptom for something terminal.
Delete first sentence. Re-type with one word changed.
Facebook stalk someone. Anyone.
Consider jacking it all in.
Have a burst of energy in which I write an entire blog post in 15 minutes.
Play with spaniel.
Do you have a process? Tell me all about it.
This post is not sponsored by Netflix, Two Dots or spaniels.

Although depleted by the loss of key players Richard Keen (Prop), Ben Nicholl (No. 8) and Jamie Burns (Centre) it was the home side who stormed into the attack exerting great pressure on Tadley through a storm force oncoming wind. This pressure lasted for about 10 minutes but due to stout defence from Tadley, Grove were not able to cross the try line. Prop Steve Dixey, Lock Paul Miles and Centre Joe Bellinger stood out in these attacks but Tadley eventually relieved the pressure with a long wind assisted kick downfield. Tadley then wasted a two man overlap, try scoring opportunity, with a knock on and then missed a relatively simple penalty attempt at goal. Staying in the Grove half it was the very powerful Tadley pack that set up and scored the first try of the match when they drove their Grove counterparts fully 10 metres, to touchdown. The conversion was missed and despite the early pressure Grove were 0 : 5 down after 19 minutes. Undaunted Grove came back at Tadley and exhibited some fine interplay between their backs but with the wind advantage long Tadley kicks continually took them right back to the Grove try line. Again the big opposition pack powered over the Grove try line twice but on both occasions the ball was adjudged to be 'held up'. As a result of these skirmishes both Grove prop Steve Dixey and the Tadley hooker looked to be in terrible trouble with leg injuries but somehow both very bravely carried on. Then from a set move the Tadley full back zoomed through the Grove defence at very high speed at touched down between the posts for a great try which was also converted to give the visitors a 0 : 12 lead. Grove pushed back and were unlucky when first wing Harry Carr then full back Chris Clare were stopped just short of the line but then from nowhere up popped hooker Jon North to bring Grove back into the game with a try in the corner. The wind meant the Grove conversion had no chance but it was now 5 : 12 and Grove were looking confident. With fully fifteen minutes of stoppage time played half time was called.
At half time Steve Dixey was replaced by Jimmy Wallbridge and Grove immediately went into the attack with a superb charge from lock Stewart Sherwood who was having a fine match all round. This lead to a massive Grove drive which eventually lead to a Grove penalty which scrum half Roger Sevier happily put over to take the score to 8 : 12 after just five minutes of the second half. Grove then took the lead following a wide arcing run from left wing Carr taking the ball from one side of the field to the other before moving it back through the backs to centre Joe Bellinger who had no trouble finding a gap and touching down for a one point lead. This was increased by Roger Sevier's conversion to 15 : 12. Following a penalty award to Grove one of the Tadley forwards rightly received a yellow card for first illegally preventing the penalty from being taken and then for pushing one of the Grove players to the ground before flailing his fists at everyone around him. The resultant penalty kick from the half way line was just missed by Sevier. Fine work from prop Tim Lane took Grove back into the Tadley twenty two metre area and the Grove pack began showing superiority over their counterparts and it was a very short time before slick handling saw flanker Guy Nicholl go over in the corner to take Grove to a 20 : 12 lead. Tadley pushed back into the Grove half but were then astounded when from deep inside his own 22 metre area fly half and captain Nick Sevier broke out on an amazing solo run which after dummying a couple of Tadley players, took him the full length of the field and finally with only the full back to beat he both side-stepped and handed him off to score a tremendous bonus point try.
The difficult conversion was put over by brother Roger and Grove were 27 : 12 in front. The sin-binned Tadley forward now returned, his side having conceded two trys while he was off, and Grove substituted centre Ashley Lane with Tom Harrington and Stewart Sherwood with Ryan Gordon, making his first team debut. Grove were now all over Tadley, attacking at will but then Tim Lane received a yellow card and Tadley pushed back into Grove territory. Grove recovered however and were awarded a penalty virtually on half way and near the touch line. Astonishingly Roger Sevier elected to go the kick at goal and even more astonishingly put the ball right between the posts for the final scoreline of 30 : 12.
This had been a very good performance from a possibly understrength Grove side who looked like they had shed their 'ring-rust' from the previous week. Particularly outstanding were Guy Nicholl, Stewart Sherwood, Steve Dixey and Nick Sevier although it would be difficult to pick a man of the match as everyone in the side, including the replacements, played very well.

Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week - February 19, 2017
In the weekly Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week, the Montreal bookstore recommends several new works of fiction, art books, periodicals, and comics.
Librairie Drawn & Quarterly is one of Montreal's premiere independent bookstores.
Spaniel Rage
by Vanessa Davis
New D+Q! Spaniel Rage was first published over a decade ago; it collects diary comics and drawings made between 2003/04 by multidisciplinary artist Vanessa Davis. Chock full of frankness and mirth, Davis's observations are casual but cutting, showcasing some of the best chops in autobiographical comics. These pencil drawn anecdotes offer wry wisdom and gentle self-deprecation, a delight from a talented storyteller!
Lincoln in the Bardo
by George Saunders
Lincoln in the Bardo is the long anticipated first novel from a master of short fiction. George Saunders brings his dark satire to the story of Willie Lincoln, the president's son who died at age eleven. Saunders anchors Willie in a bizarre, polyphonic purgatory where ghosts mingle and bicker. Formally innovative and endlessly imaginative, this is a crowning achievement from a seasoned dazzler!
Angel Catbird Volume 2: To Castle Catula
by Margaret Atwood, Johnnie Christmas, Tamra Bonvillain
Legendary Canadian novelist, essayist, thinker Margaret Atwood continues her foray into the world of comics with Angel Catbird Volume 2. Dabbling with hybridity, Atwood's series is at once a good ol' fashioned superhero comic and a divergent to its conventions, combining pulp adventure with environmental treatise.
The Refugees
by Viet Thanh Nguyen
Nguyen's Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Sympathizer propelled the Vietnamese born American author into the literary-limelight. Nguyen has followed up with a collection of short stories set in both Vietnam and America; The Refugees is a geography of displacement, tracing the lives of those torn between adoptive homelands and countries of birth.
My Favourite Thing is Monsters
by Emil Ferris
My Favourite Thing is Monsters is a sweeping phantasmagoria set against the turbulent political backdrop of 1960s Chicago. The book is narrated by a precocious ten-year-old who attempts to unravel the murder of her neighbour, a beautiful and mysterious holocaust survivor. Emil Ferris's debut graphic novel is a B-movie-monster-filled opus, a psychological thriller with a stunningly virtuosic visual style.

An innovative earth-imaging camera that costs a fifth of the price of comparable units is to fly on Topsat (Tactical Optical Satellite), one of three new small satellite projects recently announced by science minister Lord Sainsbury.
The camera, developed at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, will produce highly detailed images. Black and white images will have 2.5m resolution and colour images 5m resolution.
Project manager Nigel Morris said: "It gives Britain an opportunity to demonstrate how its world-class technology can be used to make space imaging affordable for the user."
The main design challenges are to align the camera optics precisely and to develop a stable camera structure. A carbon-fibre reinforced polymer, which is strong, lightweight and will not expand when hot, will be used.
Education will be a main beneficiary with selected images on the web. Students will be able to compete for the opportunity to task the satellite themselves to produce specific data for optical imaging projects.
The 100kg Topsat microsatellite will be built by Surrey Satellite Technology, a spin-off company from Surrey University's Space Centre.
The programme will be managed by the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency.
The low-cost microsatellite is a further step towards the plan to have a constellation of optical satellites providing a window on the world. These will continuously monitor earth to aid farmers, monitor natural disasters and pollution, among other things.
The satellite, co-funded by the British National Space Centre and the Ministry of Defence, will be launched in early 2003.

I mean, new year new you.. new standards for your favorite blogs and reasons you don't read them? 😉
Don't Read This Blog If…
1). You're starting the year off with a kale and carrot skin juice cleanse or detox of any kind. Because I will be posting photos of my delicious In-N-Out burgers, ice cream, and other deliciousness as I continue to eat intuitively. And you will cry into your kale krap.
2). Your New Year's resolution is to get your butt in the gym every single day, no excuses for mindless cardio that you will definitely dread by day four out of 365. You'll wonder why you aren't exercising like this instead, and I don't want to be to blame for breaking your super realistic resolution.
3). You have a fear with bloated bellies, weight gain, or cellulite. I think the scientific term is Imanassholephobic
4). You have a problem with anyone directly dissing quest bars or protein powders.
5). And if you can't stomach the truth about those fad products, you're definitely not going to like what I have to say about these healthy products.
Don't Read This Blog If…
6). You want to argue that acting compulsively healthy is more important than living completely happy and orthorexia free.
7). You don't want to receive exclusive VIP videos for free.
8). You think that it's more important to get strong sexy legs than learn how to love them.
9). You aren't aware that numbers 1-8 are satire.
10) You don't want to be part of an incredible community of warrior women and boss babes who support one another and lift each other up.
But like, I hope you do, because I want you here in 2017. Whether or not you "shouldn't" read this blog 😉

Beijing: China`s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the country`s top coal producer, plans to douse fire that is raging since 1960s at nearly half of its coal fields by 2012 at a whopping cost of about USD 29 million.
The project would target seven north China`s coalfields where smouldering fires are monitored at 66 locations, with an impact area totalling 26.7 square kilometres, Head of the region`s Economic and Information Commission Ya Saning today said.
"More than 20 million tonnes of coal is wasted every year in our region due to the smouldering fires. And the fires also cause serious air pollution," Saning said.
The regional government has earmarked an annual financing of CNY 200 million (USD 29.3 million) from 2009 to 2012 for fighting fires, the head said.
The smouldering started in 1960s after the exposure of coal-bearing strata in the air due to faulty mining practices, which eventually led to spontaneous combustion due to dry weather of the region, Saning explained.
According to a harnessing plan, coal threatened by fire would be dug away to stop fire from spreading, while the affected region will be covered by sand.
Other materials such as slurry are also pumped to help extinguish fires underground, state news agency Xinhua reported.
Inner Mongolia produced 637 million tonnes of coal last year, ranking the first in China.

A recent change in Baltimore's building code allows the city and community leaders to take control of vacant houses from absentee owners and turn them over to non-profit developers for renovation.
The city housing department, in conjunction with the non-profit Community Law Center, filed suit in District Court yesterday against the owners of two rowhouses in East Baltimore.
The suit asks the court to appoint the Middle East Community Development Organization as a receiver of the properties so they can be renovated and sold to families in the community, which is located near Johns Hopkins Hospital. Middle East is one of the city's poorest neighborhoods and it has one of the highest concentrations of vacant houses in Baltimore.

I think it's pretty well-established that I have a serious soft spot for Indian curry dishes.
And really, what's not to love?
This dish is easy, and doesn't take a ton of time. It reheats really well, too. Make the rice while the curry simmers to cut down on prep time (i.e., minimize the time between a curry craving and food entering your mouth).
This recipe comes from the blog Chef De Home. I tinkered with the proportions of some of the ingredients, but otherwise stayed true to the spirit of the original recipe.
You'll need:
- 3 shallots, roughly chopped
- 2 pints cherry tomatoes
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbs fresh ginger, peeled
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tbs curry powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 2 cans chickpeas, drained
- 2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or coconut milk)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- rice, for serving
In a food processor, pulse the shallots, cherry tomatoes, garlic, and ginger until not quite smooth.
In a large skillet, add the olive oil and heat over medium. Add the cumin seeds and heat until they start to pop a bit.
Add the mixture from the food processor to the skillet. Add the curry powder, cinnamon, and garam masala. Mix well. Allow this to cook over medium for a few minutes, or until some of the liquid has cooked off a bit.
Add the chick peas and stock. Again, allow it to cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes, or until some more of the liquid has cooked off. After that time, use a potato masher to squash some of the chick peas.

The Plains Woman's Club wishes to thank the community at large for support of our project of re-shingling the first log school built in the area. Letters of Support for a Montana History Foundation grant application were written by the Thompson Falls Historical Society, Gregg Eitelberg, Mayor of Plains, Lori Rehbein, 4th grade Plains School Teacher and the Plains Business Community.
The Town of Plains provided a Port-potty and night security during the project.
Plains Schools loaned security fencing and ladders. Thom Chisholm brought shingle shovels and rippers to the project.
PWC members provided logistical support and meals. Community member, Sharon Wilson appeared during one lunch break with items to add to our menu. Tom Peterson of Ripples Ice Cream shop appeared during one work break with large, complimentary servings of their special rhubarb-strawberry flavor of the month.
Local donations made it easier to purchase material and we especially wish to show appreciation for a generous donation made in honor of Gertrude Vacura Bryce who was an active member of the Plains Woman's Club for many years.
We owe special thanks to Kirby Matthew of Deer Lodge for providing scaffolding and tools as well as his considerable expertise in the art of historic preservation. Of course we could not have done the project at all without the willing participation by a group of retired community members who gave of their time and energy, skills and tools, for no other reason than to be involved in, and to complete, a project for community betterment. Those people included Marc Childress, Les Carpenter, Brad Stacey, Rob Seli, Marvin Tanner, Tom Collins.
All of the individuals and organizations mentioned helped to preserve an important part of the cultural heritage of the area for the enjoyment and education of future students, residents and visitors.
Thank you!
Ellen Childress
Plains Woman's Club Secretary

|Got this for Christmas-temperature and humidity monitoring. Has 3 "tower" thermometers that send the readings back to the internet (via internet "bridge"device that comes with it and connects to your internet modem). Can set high and low temperature alerts (text and email) for each "tower". Can label each "tower" with your own meaningful wording (so you know the location). Will be nice to track the temps from anyplace -- whether home or not - via internet or cell phone app. Don't know if it will make me a better greenhouse gardener or not - but at least the plants won't fry or freeze. I have another unit that is not internet based that I got last year (with only one temp reading - this new one is great because I now have two GH joined (yet kept a bit separate with a curtain) -- and because I can monitor from anywhere via my cell phone.
My passion is painting but gardening is running a close second.

|I have this and it is great! I added the Weather Station display so that I could see it at night from my bed.
I did find that the towers can conflict with each other so I only use one on the alert. The 2nd one is connected to my backup display, and the third is in the box for emergency replacement if needed. I find that this setup works well for my 10x12.
It is worth it.

|@shadytrake I didn't realize there was a Weather Station display that you could get too. I'll have to look that up - thanks for the info. I do have the alerts set to go to my cell phone - so if the temps fall (or rise) to certain levels I'll get a text message. So far I haven't had the towers conflict - but this is day one so I'll have to keep an eye-out.

|@ecscuba you can also set a humidity alert. I use that to warn of low humidity in hot summer and high humidity in winter (possible water line break). I've had it for just over a year and it works great!
Also the AcuRite folks monitor from within the USA unlike the competition that monitors from India. Better customer support and service because they are local.
Jan 2, 2016 4:11 PM CST
|Thanks @shadytrake. I had noticed the humidity thing -- guess I need to pay attention to it too (haha). So far I am having great results with the temp readouts on my cell phone. I still kept another thermometer with alerts in there as a backup. Everything is working great so I'm a happy camper.

|I'm looking fit something similar to this. Has something new been invented within this year? Something simple and is less expensive? I can monitor my gh from an indoor monitor but using my phone would be ideal. This item isn't necessary, I'm just a lazy Control Freak about the interior Temps in the gh while I'm away.

|I am liking the LeCross WiFi thermometer. The trouble is, I barely have enough bandwidth to make it work. They are coming to install a second line next week. It's not just the new thermometer, but Alexa has joined the family. Our signal is now so weak it can't even support Alexa's accessories. Anyway, the thermometer is part time for now until that line gets put in. But it does work. I will be using the soil probe, too which will help me know when to water. It is hard to determine when things need water in that environment. I am used to watching the weather outside than inside. The probe will help that.

Offshore Drilling Operations in Italy
In Italy we voted for the referendum on Environmental Law, which regulates offshore drilling operations, on April 17, 2016. Consultation was wanted by 9 regions, concerned about the environmental consequences and the possible repercussions on tourism. Basilicata, Campania, Calabria, Liguria, Marche, Molise, Puglia, Sardinia and Veneto.
The question was related only to transactions already in place within 12 miles, because it was already forbidden to start new activities within this limit with the Legislative Decree no. 152.
I realized this graphic starting from data released by the Ministry of Economic Development. I wanted to point out all the marine platforms and similar structures present in Italian seas, paying attention to the 12-mile limit.

Large Email List of Indian Teenagers, ideas?
One of my websites (Humor) went viral recently and I seem to have generated a large email list of Indian teenagers on it. These are not double opt ins but rather emails collected when a user logged in via fb. I've never done any email marketing before and was wondering if any of the good folks on here would care to offer me some suggestions on what to do with this list.
List Details: 100k+ , All have been collected over the past few months. About 90% are Indian users.
a) Ideas on what to promote?
b) What email services to use. A lot of people suggest MailChimp, Aweber etc. What about Amazon SES? They seem way cheaper. Any negatives?
c) Given that its a humor niche and from teenage users from India and estimate as to what the earnings could be on a mailing?
d) If someone was interested in renting the list or buying the list. What would be a fair pricing point for a list like this.
Thank you

Following a disappointing upset loss to Utah Valley University, where the Cougars lost 114–104 in their home gym, the Cougars are ready for redemption. And the BYU coaching staff has been prepping its team for a comeback all week.
"I think that our guys are obviously down," said BYU coach Dave Rose. "With a young team, especially, it's our job to get them back on the right path. … The bottom line is the focus with this whole group will just be that we've got to defend better, we've got to play harder, we've got to respect loose balls and rebounds, that we just have to have a more urgent attitude towards playing that part of the game. I think that sometimes that happens with talented guys that they feel like they can make up for it on the next play when in reality you can't."
Rose said the BYU coaching staff had spent a lot of time on Monday and Tuesday going over film with the players and that the staff is trying to ignite a fire under the team.
"They need help from the coaching staff. They need help from our managerial staff, our support staff," Rose said. "We need to probably reach out a little more with this group. In that same process, the best teams are the teams where everything comes inside-out, where it comes from the group and then comes out, so you want to give them their space, but you also need to fill in the gaps for them. That's how I feel right now. I feel as a staff we really need to reach in here and fill in the gaps and help these guys in a lot of different areas."
"I feel as a staff we really need to reach in here and fill in the gaps and help these guys in a lot of different areas." —Dave Rose, BYU basketball coach
But Rose says there isn't much coming from the inside-out right now. He credits BYU sophomore captain Nick Emery for being comfortable in the role, but emphasized that the coaching staff is taking the lead on boosting the young team's confidence.
And the message seems to be getting through. BYU freshman Yoeli Childs reflected on BYU's loss to UVU saying UVU played harder than BYU on Saturday and that the team is determined not to get outplayed again.
"We have to be a team that comes out and attacks other teams and gets them on their heels," Childs said. "These last couple days of practice have been this. We've just been working out butts off, so I don't think you'll see that again."
"We have to be a team that comes out and attacks other teams and gets them on their heels. These last couple days of practice have been this. We've just been working out butts off, so I don't think you'll see that again." —Yoeli Childs, BYU forward
A start-over with another in-state rival is exactly what the Cougars (4–2) need right now — and the Aggies are in a similar situation. The Aggies (3–2) started off the season strong, but have fallen in their last two games.
"This will be a real interesting matchup of them sitting on a couple losses, us sitting on a couple of losses," Rose said. "How does that affect your confidence going in? How does that execution? Then you add the in-state rivalry to it and I'm obviously excited to play because we want to get out there after getting beat, so I'm sure (USU coach Tim Duryea) feels the same way about his program."
Duryea has his hands full, much like Rose, with a young roster. Of his 15-man roster, USU has 10 underclassmen. USU recruited four new forwards since the last season, which Rose says will be a challenge as most of them are square-up-to-the-basket players, but Rose is most concerned about the challenge the guards will bring in the game.
"These guards are really good at getting where they want on the floor," Rose said. "And that caused us real problems the other night, so hopefully we'll be able to adjust to it."
Rose has planned on a difficult challenge from USU senior Jalen Moore, a player who can not only shoot the ball, but create space for his teammates and post up.
BYU and USU face off at the Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake at 7 p.m. MST Wednesday, Nov. 30. Tickets cost $18–$40 and can be purchased online here.

I recently watched two DVD releases: Going the Distance and The Other Guys. Read on and find out which movie I recommend for you to watch.
Directed by Nanette Burstein, Going the Distance is a romantic comedy starring Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. The main premise of this film is long distance relationships and how hard they can get. Garrett (Long) works in the music industry and lives in New York. Erin (Barrymore) works as a summer intern at a newspaper in New York. When they both meet at a bar and hit it off, they decide to have a fling because Erin has to leave for California to finish her grad school in six weeks. Six weeks later, they decide to maintain a long distance relationship because they have fallen in love with each other. Will their relationship be able to survive the long distance? Will they ever overcome the long distance and be in the same state together again? Watch and find out.
Directed by Adam McKay, The Other Guys is an action comedy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. Allen Gamble (Ferrell) and Terry Hoitz (Wahlberg), two NYPD detectives who are disrespected by their fellow officers, face various obstacles in their attempt to solve a financial fraud case. Will they be successful in solving the case and earning the respect of their peers? Watch and find out.
Two thumbs up for Going the Distance because it was interesting and entertaining. Long and Barrymore had good onscreen chemistry. So for all the chick flick lovers out there, I recommend this movie - go check it out on DVD.
On the other hand, two thumbs down for The Other Guys as it was stupid and unnecessarily long due to a poorly written screenplay. So ladies and gents, I recommend that you save two hours of your life by not watching this film.

Symbolism in "The Cherry Orchard:" Chekhov's Russia
Anton Chekhov's perennial drama, The Cherry Orchard, is a classic work of Russian literature. Chekhov himself grew up in a Russia that was experiencing the changes effected by the emancipation of the serfs in 1861. In one generation, Russia went from a country of landed aristocracy who were served by peasants to a country of free citizens. In The Cherry Orchard Chekhov does a masterful job of symbolizing Russia and portraying the differences before and after the emancipation.
What is Symbolism anyway?
First things first, as they say. What is symbolism anyway? In drama, a symbol can be anything used within the play itself to draw an association with something else. For instance, a dramatist could use a rose within the story to represent love between two characters. He could use the house where the characters live to represent the state of their emotional lives. There is a large degree of artistic license when it comes to symbolism in drama, but generally they are used to convey an underlying meaning or association.
Chekhov uses the namesake of his drama, a cherry orchard, to symbolize his view of Russia. Russia prior to the 1861 emancipation consisted of a wealthy aristocratic class who held vast estates and exploited the serfs to gain cheap labor. The serfs essentially became slaves to the landowning class. In 1861, Czar Alexander II emancipated the serfs and allowed them to seek careers and lives out from under the oppressive landowners. This emancipation drastically weakened the aristocracy by taking from them the cheap labor that they had previously depended upon, and many wealthy landowners fell into financial trouble within 20 years of the emancipation. This was the Russia where Chekhov's drama was set.
It must be stated that there is a lot of disagreement over what the cherry orchard is meant to represent. Literary critics disagree over its meaning and even the characters within the play have differing opinions. These different opinions serve to illustrate the opposing views of the very people who were alive at the close of the 19th century in Russia. Some were optimistic about the future and sought to better themselves while others were pessimistic, stuck in the past that was quickly leaving them behind. Chekhov beautifully portrays the fears and the hopes of common people, and even weaves these emotions into his symbolism.
The Orchard: A Symbol of the Past
The orchard of cherry trees is used as a symbol of the past, the past that is being flattened by the progress of the new. The character of Trofimov is the one who holds the strongest view of the orchard as being a reminder of the oppressive past. He says at one point that "from every cherry tree humans are peering out at you. To possess living souls – that has corrupted all of you." In his view, the Russia of the past was quintessentially corrupt, filling the coffers of the wealthy by shedding the blood of the serfs. His solution to the corruption is to shun the past and embrace the changes that resulted from the emancipation. Trofimov proclaimed that "everything that is now unattainable will someday be comprehensible and within our grasp." This was the true heart's cry of the liberated serf, and the serfs saw the orchard as the symbol of their oppression; a thing better left in the past.
Standing in stark contrast to the view of Trofimov, the liberated serf, stands the view of Ranavskaya and Gayev, the landowners. They are reeling from the financial consequences of the emancipation and at the play's outset they are faced with selling their estate in order to survive. The landowning aristocrats view the orchard as a reminder of easier times, as the source of their wealth and the financier of their easy lifestyle. Ranavskaya stubbornly refuses to part with the orchard, even though she knows she cannot afford it. The orchard is the symbol of her idealistic childhood and the good memories attached to it. Now that she is faced with an evolving social landscape, she clings to the solid memories of her past. To the wealthy few, the past was their utopia and the new Russia made up of freed serfs was an uncertainty at the least and was most commonly a nightmare.
Ultimately the cherry orchard is sold and the family leaves the house to be torn down. The orchard is chopped down and sold for the firewood. Chekhov does an amazing job of presenting the different emotions and motivating factors of the characters and, in the end, it seems as though he is making the point that society will progress and change will occur regardless of what the individual might desire or try to hold on to. All of his characters have their personal desires and idiosyncrasies, but they cannot change the fact that Russia is undergoing drastic change. All of the characters are being buffeted by the tide of change, but they can control their future by the attitude with which they view the future.

Man who plays "Santa" for children with Spina Bifida receives award
OMAHA, Neb. (FOX42KPTM) —
Each year, Paul Bohannon has one very important role to play.
"You have to be quick witted," he said.
Bohannon is Santa for children with Spina Bifida.
"Usually I have to read through the catalogs I get in the mail to know what toys are out there so when a child tells me what he wants, if it's hard to hear, I'll at least have an idea," he said.
It's something Bohannon's done for more than three decades now.
He works with the organization Nebraska Spina Bifida, to spread Christmas cheer to its little ones and their families.
"It's one of the biggest experiences that you could ever have. Like when you walk through the door at the Christmas party and they all start screaming Santa, Santa, and some run up and give you a hug and then of course there are few that hide their faces because they don't want to be seen, they're shy," said Bohannon.
It's the little things that bring him the most joy.
"Sometimes after Santa leaves and you walk back down the hall, you see the kids out running around the hall trying to figure out where Santa disappeared to," said Bohannon. "It's kind of funny."
His generosity goes way beyond the Santa suit.
Each year he adopts a Spina Bifida family in need, and gives them a Christmas they'd otherwise not have.
"The families, it's a big financial burden," said Bohannon. "They don't have the insurance a lot of people have."
Nominated by Nebraska Spina Bifida, Bohannon is the December 2017 Jefferson Awards winner.
"Just get out there and support families if you see opportunities where there are organizations that are raising money to help the needy," he said. "Volunteering your service is good, and financials is always good too."
It's something Bohannon says he'll never stop doing.

Sri Lanka cricketer Rangana Herath (R) celebrates with teammates after the dismissal of Bangladesh's Imrul Kayes during the third day of the second Test in Dhaka
Spinners Dilruwan Perera and Rangana Herath struck as Sri Lanka began their victory push in the second Test against Bangladesh after setting the hosts a 339-run target in Dhaka on Saturday.
Perera removed opener Tamim Iqbal for two before Herath got rid of Imrul Kayes as Bangladesh reached 57-2 at lunch on the third day at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.
Wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella took the catch as Kayes fell for 17 in the next ball after he hit Herath for six straight over his head.
Mominul Haque was at the crease with 31 alongside Mushfiqur Rahim, two not out, with the hosts still needing an improbable 282 runs for victory.
Earlier, Sri Lanka added 26 runs to their overnight score before they were all out for 226 in their second innings to set up a mammoth target for Bangladesh.
Roshen Silva remained unbeaten on 70, adding 48 runs to fellow overnight batsman Suranga Lakmal for the ninth wicket after Sri Lanka resumed on 200-8.
Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam bowled Lakmal for 21 to end the partnership before he trapped Herath leg-before off the next ball to wrap up the Sri Lanka innings.
Taijul finished with 4-76 taking his tally to eight wickets in the match.

UUM ONLINE: 6 March - With the intention of improving the teaching competency of Polytechnic and Community College lecturers, specifically in the logistics and transportation areas, UUM and The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) organised a four-month Professional Qualification Examination (PQE), Advanced Diploma Programme which commenced in October 2017.
A total of 20 Polytechnic and Community College lecturers were honoured in the Closing and Appreciation Ceremony of the PQE Advanced Diploma Programme for Higher Education Officers at the EDC Hotels and Resorts, today.
The Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and International Affairs), Prof. Dr. Yusnidah Ibrahim, who represented Dato' Seri Vice-Chancellor said, the four-month programme was held to train the lecturers at the polytechnics and community colleges to teach the students at the diploma and certificate levels in logistics and transportation areas.
"As we stand on the brink of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0), we are mindful that the logistics and transportation sectors play an increasingly crucial role in accelerating and shaping the country's economic growth.
"With an aim to contribute significantly in support of the national agenda, the introduction of the Professional Qualifying Examination (PQE) Advanced Diploma for Higher Education Officers was a clear indication of the importance of creating employment and business opportunities to meet the country's social and economic development agenda," said Prof. Yusnidah.
She also expressed her hope that the PQE Advanced Diploma for Higher Education Officers will be offered again and UUM will do the utmost to educate generations that will lead the country in the near future.
Meanwhile, the President of CILT Malaysia, Dato' Abd Radzak Abd Malek said, thus far, CILT has collaborated with 22 public and private institutions of higher education since the last five years and the efforts taken by the Polytechnics and Community Colleges to develop the logistics and transportation industry are certainly laudable.
"This effort also demonstrated the zealous determinations by the Polytechnics and Community Colleges to enhance their graduate employability chances.
"This PQE programme allowed the lecturers to improve the quality of the teaching and learning, especially in professional courses in logistics and transportation," said Dato' Abd Radzak.

WARNING: Contains spoilers
Mark Whittingstall was aged 51 when he disappeared from Blackburn on 29 August 2013.
His brother, Steve reported him missing when he failed to turn up for a family event, and went for over a month without any news of his whereabouts.
But tonight's heartrending episode of Channel 4's The Missing sees Steve devastated to find his brother, only to discover he doesn't want to return home.
Most missing people found within 48 hours but every year, 2,000 people go missing and do not return.
After a reported sighting, police tracked down some CCTV footage of Mark and launched publicity campaign.
"I'm not sure how Mark is. I'm not sure if Mark is," says his brother, as reports begin to come in.
But Steve is left shocked when a call comes in saying police have found his missing sibling at long last.
"The sad side of it is to say he is sleeping rough," he is told. "He is going to try and call you."
But he is then told his brother does not want to return home. He reels: "What a shock."
Despite the bad news, Steve is thrilled that his brother is alive, saying: "What a result. Fantastic."
As the pair chat, Mark doesn't give a reason for his disappearance, but says he is fine and is considering returning home.
"I've been walking round with a ton of brick on my shoulders and it feels like someone has just walked up behind me and taken it away," says Steve.
Despite making contact though, Mark later decides he does not want to go back to Burnley and has since failed to contact his family.
* The Missing airs tonight, Tuesday 25 March, at 10pm on Channel 4

When the cumulative stress of the week has us coiled tighter than a set of ringlet curls at a 1992 prom, there's nothing quite like mixing up an icy-cold gin and tonic to take the edge off.
Well, what if we told you that a simple garnish tweak could make that go-to G&T taste roughly 1,000 times better? This weekend, we challenge you to swap out your citrus wedges for a slice of juicy mango. To get sciency for a sec: Both mango and juniper (the berries that give gin its flavoring) contain high levels of a flavor compound called pinene. When paired together, that sweet mango draws out the botanical taste of the gin liquor, thereby creating a perfectly balanced cocktail. Cool, right?
If you're ready to take a chance on mango, our friend Cassandra LaValle at Coco Kelley has a simple (and scrumptious) recipe for classic G&Ts with a fruity spin. Cheers, dears.

text: In light of everything I've been going through in my tanks, I thought I am in need of a light hearted thread. Spring has brought about spawning behavior in my tanks. Most are too young to produce eggs but they are "play" spawning. This has allowed me to sex them and, excepting one fish, I've guessed the sex's correctly based on the play spawning. Motley (F), Fritz (M), Rex (M), Chise (F), Sayuri (F), Hershey (M). The only one I got wrong was Lola, who is apparently a male. I've been calling him Lolo because, well, I thought it was funny but I don't actually like it as a name. I loved the name Lola and am quite sad to be losing it lol. Some info about "Lola" - he's super, well, sassy haha. He's the smallest fish in the tank. His body suggests fantail but he actually has a slight wen. He's pretty much a lemonhead. All white body with a yellow wen. Though lately he's developed a little bit of orange and black calico, mostly on the fins. He's feisty, sneaky and the greediest fish in the tank. Despite being the smallest, he eats the most food and will steal everyone's peas if I don't hand feed them. He then hovers around the tank for an hour trying to choke it all down while being picked on by the others because he's stolen their food. Occasionally he fails and spits it up, hiding the food in corners of the tank to go back to it when he's ready. He's trouble. He also manages to wiggle into the tightest of spaces and is the one most responsible for "floating" and "pruning" my plants for me haha. So, he needs a name reflective of his personality. Unfortunately he's SO fast that it's hard to get a current photo of him.. He mostly just looks like a little white blur. Suggestions? OH - one other question - how is it possible that a 7-8 month old ranchu is producing eggs? I'm not really worried about her but am curious to know.

Toll Brothers Inc.'s fiscal fourth-quarter income fell 77% as the home builder posted fewer tax-related adjustments, though home deliveries and revenue improved.
Toll Brothers, which focuses largely on higher-end customers in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic, has benefited as low interest rates have made home buying more affordable than renting in several markets. Consumers, increasingly confident due to stabilizing home values, are also trading up into the larger homes for which Toll is known.
Mortgage rates, still generally low, have fluctuated recently amid uncertainty about whether the Federal Reserve will scale back its bond buying, although Toll's more-affluent customers are generally considered more resilient if rates rise.
For the quarter ended Oct. 31, Toll reported a profit of $94.9 million, or 54 cents a share, down from $411.4 million, or $2.35 a share, in the year-earlier period. The latest quarter included a deferred tax asset valuation allowance reversal of $4.6 million, compared with a similar reversal of $394.7 million a year earlier.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected per-share earnings of 43 cents.
The company last month said revenue grew 65% to $1.04 billion.
Toll Brothers delivered 1,485 units, a 36% increase from a year earlier. The average price of homes delivered was $703,000, versus $582,000 in the prior-year period.
The cancellation rate was 5.5%, up from 4.6%.

NASA Engineer to Visit Math Classes:
Mr. Nixon is bringing in an engineer from NASA (his brother) to talk with the PreCalc and Calculus students on "Why this math stuff is important." His brother works in Huntsville, Alabama and is currently tasked with the development of the upper engine for next heavy-lift launch vehicle that will be replacing the space shuttle.
A few of our seniors are interested in engineering careers, and one is even thinking about aerospace, so Mr. Nixon figured it would be good to hear it right from the guy doing the rocket surgery.

Historical Origins of Yoga & Baby Yoga
The origins of yoga are found in ancient history and it has been commonly practiced throughout the world for centuries. Yoga came from South West Asia more than 3000 years ago and then migrated south through the Indian sub-continent. Archaeological research sows that the practice of yoga originated as early as 1500 BC, although written proof of its existence only dates back to 900 BC.
All yoga exercises have a common and a Sanskrit name. Yoga itself is a Sanskrit word, which translated means 'Union' between mind, body and spirit.
Baby Yoga
Baby Yoga is a fairly new practice based on the age-old tradition. It includes simplified Hatha Yoga, coupled with rhythmical, more energetic movements that can be likened to Ashtanga Yoga, which help to maintain the baby's interest and so both parent and baby can have fun together. Their developing bodies are flexible and, just like adults, they too can benefit from and enjoy the stimulating touch, movements and the deep relaxation that yoga offers.
As with Baby Massage, Baby Yoga promotes a life-long bond between parent and baby and creates a foundation for a happy, healthy life.
Some of the many benefits of Baby Massage and Baby Yoga for parents:
- Use positive touch with their baby
- Do exercises with their baby
- Have special hugs and cuddles
- Spend special time together
- Learn about their baby
- Relax with their baby
- Play with their baby
- Bond with their baby
- Generally have fun with their baby
A few specific benefits of Baby Yoga are :
- Stimulates baby's senses
- Improves baby's blood flow
- Strengthen and improves baby's muscle tone
- Regulates and strengthens baby's digestive system
- this can possibly help with baby's colic, wind and constipation
Baby Yoga can also:
- Help with baby's general growth and development
- Enhance baby's body awareness
- Increase baby's ability to cope with future challenges
