It's a Boy!
We were expecting him in under four hours but he had a mental lapse at mile 12. He started losing his focus but continued to move forward. I met him at mile 22 and attempted to serve as comic relief but he wasn't in the mood.
We ran from fluid station to fluid station and he was really appreciative of my presence. I am so proud of him!
He actually is talking about doing another marathon and improving on that time. I think the gauntlet has been tossed and I had better get my butt in gear.........
It was a great time in the City of Angels with perfect weather, if you like 75º and sunshine........
Now why am I living in Michigan?????

Download the Free Mental Toughness Cheat Sheet
Find out whether you are tough enough.
In business, as in most aspects of life, it's your mental game that has the most impact on how far you can go.
If you're trying to run a business and you struggle to manage the complexities, uncertainties, stresses and pressures that you confront on a daily basis, both you and your business are likely to suffer irreparable damage.
That is why mental toughness is probably the number one performance-related concept that business owners and entrepreneurs need to grasp if they want to develop the psychological tools needed to build a sustainable business.
I am Martin Cole. I am a professionally certified performance and development coach and have a Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Coaching Psychology.
I am also an accredited mental toughness practitioner, licensed to administer the MTQ mental toughness suite of psychometric tests.
My mission with the Self Determined Life is to help entrepreneurs and business owners to develop the mental tools and capabilities they need to build their businesses successfully and sustainably.
With this mental toughness resource, as well as with my coaching and teaching, I aim to help you do exactly that. Read on to find our what mental toughness is, how you can measure your levels of mental toughness and much more.

mental toughness cheat sheet
There are various definitions of mental toughness and a range of different models for what it is.
I like the way that mental toughness is described by Professor Peter Clough and Doug Strycharczyk (see Books below).
They define mental toughness as "the quality which determines in large part how people deal effectively with challenge, stressors and pressure ... irrespective of prevailing circumstances."
Looking at this definition, it's easy to see how critical mental toughness is for entrepreneurs and business owners. As Richard Branson says:
"There are few certainties in business, except that you will be faced with adversity and fail from time to time. Every entrepreneur's success story is a tale of constant adaptation, revision and change. When you come across a situation that's unpleasant, difficult or challenging, you can decide to give up, re-adjust, or turn it to your advantage. Obstacles and challenges are integral to an entrepreneur's work – don't let them dissuade you from getting the job done or prevent you from realising your dreams."
It's one thing to know that mental toughness is important. But it's another to know how you can develop it.
The best place to start is by trying to get a better understanding of what mental toughness actually is.
Research by Clough and his academic colleagues, suggests mental toughness consists of four components:
The advantage of this model, as I see it, is that it means mental toughness can be measured at a quite granular level. As a result, when you are looking to increase your levels of mental toughness, you can identify the specific elements that you should focus on to get the best return on effort. As a coach, this means I can help clients in a targeted way.
Other researchers, for example Daniel Gucciardi, conceptualise mental toughness in a different way.
Gucciardi defines mental toughness as "a personal capacity to produce consistently high levels of subject performance (e.g. progress towards goals) or objective performance (e.g. sales, or academic results), despite everyday challenges and stressors as well as significant adversities".
Gucciardi's research suggests that mental toughness is best thought of as a one dimensional, rather that four dimensional construct.
But Gucciardi's research also suggest that mental toughness expresses itself in the individual as more of a state that a trait. This suggests that mental toughness can vary across circumstances and time.
Despite the different ways of characterising mental toughness, there is little doubt that it is a capacity that plays a substantial part in enabling people to resist stress and acheive high levels of performance.
This is why mental toughness is so important for entrepreneurs, business owners and freelancers, as they battle against the odds to carve out sustainable and developing businesses.
Of course, in this day and age, professionals and executives inside organisations face similar challenges and can equally benefit from elevated levels of mental toughness.
The good news is that despite the different ways of describing mental toughness amongst the experts, there is considerable agreement upon the fact that, with the right guidance, mental toughness can be developed.
That is why I have developed this metal toughness resource and why I focus on helping entrepreneurs and others to develop mental toughness in my coaching and teaching.

Funny moments at work:
My boss is a really cool guy. He's not a very chatty person, but when he decides to speak, he's really funny and catches attention in a blink. I find him very clever and I respect him. One day I came back from a SEO conference in London. I was telling my boss all about that conference and he asked me: "do you think you could deliver a good presentation if I sent you to an event like this one?" I said: "possibly, but who would come to see an SEO exec? I probably need to have a higher position like yours: Head of… whatever, to be able to deliver confidently and catch attention". All our friends and team members burst into laugh. I didn't understand what was going on and continued with my clever speech. At the end, one of them secretly told me that my boss isn't the Head of Whatever. Well, that's not what I meant!
Another funny situation was… The other day I saw my boss being dressed very smart, which is a bit strange when you don't meet any clients or don't go to special events. We are a media company after all and casual to smart casual is what we probably call normal. I was literally shocked when I saw him and I told him: "You look really good! Where are you going?" My lovely friends started laughing again. I asked one of them: "what did I say wrong?" "Nothing, it's just the tone of your voice that is really funny!" My boss quickly stepped in saying: "hold on, hold on, this is what Irina means: my dear boss, you look great every day, but you look amazing today!" There you go, boss, that's exactly what I meant!
I even taught my boss to swear in Romanian, because this is the first thing you do when you meet a foreigner. But he's friends with Google and has immediately searched for that word online. He told everyone that Google is extremely rude to him and the pics showing up have interesting shapes and sizes. Well, I should have known this is what you do when you work in search: you question everything and check online. My other SEO colleague has tried to engage with some people on his way back to his desk using this target keyword. He only got some friendly "hellos" back. Lucky me that those people don't work in search! Or lucky him? :)

Dude; here's a Firestrike run with a bit of an OC (80/500) on the Asus 1080TI and the CPU at 4.8. The "typical" 2050 MHZ core result for the 1080TI oced. New Firestrike score 22529.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-6700K,ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. MAXIMUS VIII FORMULA
Nice runs Mike and specialkone.
Only chance I have is to address the Motherboard and/or RAM.
Motherboard: probably is unlikely to gain anything here unless I can achieve a better and more stable overclock.
RAM: could do with another 2 sticks of 8GB.
Would love to hear your thoughts Make (and all others)
I have not gone into the settings to change the timings thou. Plus you use software to OC your rig, I don't. I do all my changes from my bios only. Don't like using software, and don't care for most of ASUS's software much either. :)

Gogebic Community College Reviews
60 reviews
Gogebic Community College is a great college if you're looking for an inexpensive way to get your generals taken care of. I'd recommend applying early and applying for scholarships.
Gogebic is a wonderful college that has great admissions and student support personal. Would like to take other courses there if the option presents itself
Gogebic is a very friendly and personable school. Located in the woods of Ironwood Michigan, it has a modern yet rustic feel to it. A relative went here and she enjoyed her time there.
Gogebic Community College is a small, interesting school in Ironwood, MI. You really do feel a sense of community at this school, I know that sounds cheesy, but it's true. Their staff are some of the most helpful educators I have ever seen. The school has a ski lift and hill on campus. Gogebic is a small campus, but your experience there will be anything but small.
Online classes are good. They are easy to use. Only problem I had was personally, I didn't use my time wisely. But if you use your time wisely, it is really easy.
Teachers will help if you have job placements and will help looking for one. The area is smaller so some jobs are unavailable in the area, but the teachers and advisors are good with either relocating you or help finding another college which is closer to where you would like to be.
I haven't had many troubles with courses. Even taking classes online, all the teachers are good with getting back to you in emails about any questions you might have.
For criminal justice courses, the teachers knew what they were talking about and the homework load wasn't bad at all. They make it easy and fun to understand.
All the teachers I had made sure you were doing good and passing. Most teachers are very lenient and will help you on a personal level as well as in the class room.
students from gogebic are well known as great honest hard workers.
Most places hiring nurses know that the gogebic nursing students are great!
I did have one microbiology class that wasn't even worth my time to be there. we didn't learn anything.
The RN program at gogebic needs a lot of work. The exams are almost more impossible than the nursing boards. Very smart students have been failing out, and that is uncalled for. The way we are prepared for the exam has nothing to do with our exams, and we are almost going in blindy, hoping we can guess the right question. Even if we memorize front to back all of our books, the questions still don't seem to match the text we studied.
teachers are always there to help if you just ask and make an meeting with them. class registration you start with admission or financial aid and if you have an advisors he willing to help in that area also.
everything is usually able when you need it. Help on test, projects, and even studying its al there in aces center.
credits are easy to transfer but has to be a school they can transfer to over, like northern, supieror and etc.
classes are easy to make it on time, if your late they don't mind they are pretty laid back about that. some teachers are strict with you missing class, so have a good reason if you end up missing a lot.

Housing/dorms are best I've seen out of all the others college I've looked at. athletics everyone has a chance to come try out. dorms aren't far away from school, actually right next door. less walking. activities are always able for students. Aces center is very helpful, teachers and all.

How does it look like when you receive a sms, do you see the led buring with an envelop?
Can anyone tell me roughly how many SMS texts the phone stores? Also can you opt out of the low battery bleep feature? I have a motorola at the moment which has an incredibly load bleep when the battery is low so you have no choice but to turn your phone off - or suffer the wrath of you work collegues! I've always had nokias previously and this battery notification is an optional feature and can be turned off.
hey all...i work for o2 and was given the chance to play with the cocoon yesturday, its good but not my cup of tea!!!
if your after a phone to be used as a camera then this aint for you but if its a music phone ya want then you cant go wrong!!
the outer design is excellent but the inside looks a little simplistic!!!
a good phone all in all though!!
Great phone with great features.
Hope its as good as the specs look.
afta reading everyones comments i wasnt sure whether to get this phone or not but i tuk a chance and got it. im really pleased with it, it seems that ppl who have left negative comments are talkin bout other models not bout the cocoon. sound quality is gr8, easy to use, display looks cool, massive memory. i wud definitly recommend! :-)
this mobile is weird looks cheap and nasty only available free on 35.00pm contracts only decent thing is the led lights display wow lets get a rave going lol o2 get a grip.
yes but the features of 02 ice is 7.8 and the 02 cocoon is 7.7 so that shows 02 ice is better.
this phone is obviously better then the o2 ice - anybody who can read can obviously see that this phone in comaprison is amazing!!!! the o2 ice is just a basic handset!!! this is far more than your average phone - its and alarm clock like no ther phone - its an amazing mp3 player - 2gb internal -thats 500mps on avg and 2gb expandable (free with o2)fm radio, 3g video calling, bluetooth, 15hr battery for mp3 player alone headphone splitter included so two people can listen at anytinme and ear bud headphones... 2mp camea is ok too - The best handset on the market for value for money and features!!!! - anyone who has posted a review that makes that handset sound rubbish obviously hasnt seen and used the phone - its very very good as you can see from the pics and specification - i rate it 8/10 - tip top phone!!!!
Hi guys!
I work at 02 and i got the chance to have a sneaky peak at this phone! I turned it on, and WOW the features are reli good! The music player is fantastic! And so much memory! Camera great! If you like this phone buy it. DONT listen to people who have'nt even seen this phone turned on, because i have and i no what it does and you lot dont, so shh! Want it BUY it!
this a warning to all those who are planning to buy o2 devices in the future! beware!
I am from India. I was happy using O2 phones such as the XDA II and the Atom so I decided to go in for another. I purchased an O2 XDA Stealth on Feb 12th 2007 and had immediately regretted the decision as I started facing a hell lot of problems in the device. Almost after a month of correspondence with O2 they sent me a replacement handset. I was happy until i opened the new unit. It had the same problems and some new. Again after long talks with O2 (Mr Keanu) they sent me another replacement promising me that this would work but it did not. Naturally I was very angry and frustrated. At this stage I ahd lost all faith in the Stealth and demanded O2 to give me some other handset for all the inconvienience that I have faced . After a series of talks with O2 Singapore(Mr Keanu) I received an Atom Exec. But my problems worsened! After a couple of days the Exec "died" ie it would not charge. when the charger was connected it would show full battery and when disconnected it would switch off and not switch on for days. Highly annoyed and frustrated I began my talks again with O2 and at the same time bought the O2 Zinc. That was another error from my side as the Zinc also had problems. Its indicator LED malfunctioned and the microphone gave out static. Those were horrible times for me having two defective handsets. O2 finally agreed to replace both these handsets and they did. So I have already used 3 Stealths, 2 Atom Execs and 2 Zincs. That adds up to 7 O2 phones in about five and a half months!!!
Well things dont end here. once again I am having problems with the Zinc such as the LED is malfunctioning, the speaker switches on automatically when a call is made, the speaker dies out, screen freezes..etc..
So to all those who are planning on investing their money on an O2 device please do not as the quality of O2 devices is degrading day by day and is no longer dependable as it once upon a time was.
if any of you want to know bout the problems i faced in these many devices please contact me on
looks very nice , easy to use , reallyreallyreally bad mp3 player , sound quality from the speakers is a joke , ok sounds good through the headphones but waste of time through the speakers , just like the o2 ice ........
and i work for o2 uk .... weve got it wrong again
Some of us at O2 are lucky enough to have these phones now, I read a post about call reception being bad, i've been using the phone for a couple of days now, and at home I get better reception than on my Nokia E65.
With 8gb Micro SD cards coming out, this phone gets even better, clear crisp user interface, if people take the time to have a good play on the phone, I dont think they'd be so quick to slag it off..Great bit of kit, I think O2 might have finally got it right with this handset!
umm, how can you have dvd qualit?.. what ever you do it can only ever be the pixel quantity of the screen...

Written by Camille Okhio.
For a look into a deep dark yet colorful subconscious one can read Dostoyevsky. Or they can view a painting by Raqib Shaw. I use the word "painting" loosely as Shaw's work reflects the use of a much wider variety of media. Shaw does not prescribe to one kind of fantasy. He incorporates multiple interpretations of myth and wonder into his works. Spanning countries, centuries and faiths. His ability to meld all that he sees is truly impressive. Especially as he does so in such a seamless fashion. His fanciful displays somehow find a way to remain plausible.
Surely this contributes to the reason he shot to fame so early on in his career. Even if one does not have the wherewithal to stand in front of a single Shaw piece for fifteen full minutes as I do, you are still struck by the immediacy and action of the figures within his compositions. The interaction between the figures in Shaw's work calls to mind early renaissance classical depictions of war. In their energy and the dynamic positioning of their bodies, Shaw's figures reverberate off the edges of his works with boundless energy and barely concealed malice.
After George Stubbs' Cheetah and Stag (2013)
Shaw's work is luminous yet dark. At times troubling even. But never without communicating an expression of raw energy and saturated fancy. Shaw's compositions bring to mind a combination of Giuseppe Arcimboldo's composite portraits, 1001 Nights, The Jungle Book and a bedazzled Hieronymous Bosch. Arcimboldo, a personal favorite, combined forms of all sorts under a general theme, to communicate not one but at least two images or ideas.
A section of Suite of the Rouge Boudoir of Beasts, 2012
This is not the first time he has been referenced by a contemporary artist, but this is indeed the first time his influence has manifested in this particular way. The connection is indeed so subtle that it is almost imperceptible to the uninformed eye. The characters in Shaw's work are alight and alive with complexity and individual consciousness. They do not appear as a mass, but as a collection of independently acting creatures.
Shaw's characters are always in action. Even the nightmarish creatures crouched in the corners of some of his work seem to be heaving with the breath of a bull right before it bolts at you. If they aren't swinging from a branch of twisted rope candy, then they are dancing on the back of a jewel dripped horse. Perhaps lounging on a bed of crystal flowers or acrobatically slitting the throat of an equally energetic rival. Everything in Shaw's work is alive. But it is not all the same. Shaw's work explores elements of good and evil, indicating that the two are not black and white. Through exploring these concepts in his fantasy, Shaw displays his opinions on "reality" and the existence of good and bad energy within our realm.
In this vein both daytime and nighttime are represented in Shaw's compositions. When I first saw his work I immediately thought of Hercules Segers (c.1590-1638), the dutch landscape artist whose work was featured in the film Werner Herzog presented at the last Whitney Biennial. In this film Herzog animated and presented the compositions of Segers to a dramatic score of early classical music. His film transported the viewer into a dreamlike Tolkein-esque place in which one is taken on an adventure through the complex, detailed subconscious of another. Eerie, beautiful and haunting, Herzog's film and Segers' landscapes share an element of nostalgia. They leave one contemplating a menacing alternate reality.
The value of Shaw's work is that he can create a landscape purely out of his minds eye, creating unique settings that have truly never been composed before. Links are made, as previously mentioned, to Northern Renaissance Artists, religious works, myth and fancy, but Shaw manages to connect these widely varying references seamlessly in impressive, multi-dimensional paintings and sculptures.
Somewhere in between Bosch, "twilight" and Hercules Segers, Raqib Shaw manages to create dreamy, psychedelic, haunting scenes. He has joined the noble quest of portraying a world without taboo, in the grand tradition of fanciful/dark painters, starting in the 15th century. Either to divorce his scenes from reality or to provide them with another level of adventure. Shaw includes his hybrid cultures in erotic, fearsome and debaucherous positions.
"Paradise Lost"
They call to mind the demon of the Northern Renaissance religious triptych – bestial, devoid of reason, energetic, dreamlike and yet humorous in a way. Perpetually threatening, regardless of their humor, Shaw's creatures prove a simple point. That which we have never seen before, is always initially interpreted as alarming. That alarm may very well be tinged with intrigue, but at its core, the emotion is frightening. That is the reason our dreams can be a source of fear. Or if you need a more historical example: human's ideas concerning the possibility of an afterlife. If we do not construct an afterlife which mimics life on earth, than the alternative of an existence which one has no experience with is enough to drive any sort of compulsive behavior. Shaw's paintings exhibit this phenomenon to a lesser degree.
Like in a nightmarish 1001 nights, Shaw weaves a narrative which one can get lost in, with almost too many characters to count. He spends equal time on the faces of the fanciful demons which lurk in every corner of his works, as he does on the foliage and crumbling edifices. Each leaf and each limb display the same high level of energy and density. Shaw does not "let up" on any part of his compositions. He doesn't allow you time to catch your breath, which I love. His work is exhilarating. He is as unlikely to skimp on a central figure as he is to choose a blurry mass as a background, rather than the involved backgrounds he chooses to present us.
Shaw redefines the traditional idea of a nightmare. When we think of a nightmare (wc?) we think dark, dank, dodgy or muddled. Shaw's work is in no way dank, dodgy or muddled. Perhaps dark in an existential, physiological way. He brings that of frightening folk lore into sharp, bright, glittering relief. Shaw updates what Grunewald did with his Isenheim Altarpiece and presents it to us in a creeping yet energetic contemporary frame. He references the nightmarish creatures of Bosch in the same way. In Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights even the benevolent creatures are frightening in a psychological sense.
In fact, Raqib Shaw is one of the few that has followed loosely in the tradition of northern renaissance religious painters. Bosch namely, but also Hugo van der Goes to a lesser extent, and the aforementioned Matthias Grunewald. Differing from Shaw, Bosch's purpose in inventing and portraying the unique, cartoonish, sometimes genuinely terrifying creatures of his paintings, was to inspire a healthy fear of hell and/or Satan (and his minions, possibly those pictured in Shaw's work) in his audience. Shaw's semi-hidden wildlings, also remind the viewer of the possibility of indecipherable dimensions. Though today's audience may take to the idea of hellish creatures really existing rather haltingly in comparison to the 15th century netherland villagers Bosch was exposed to, the possibility of their existence is still a topic of interest.
The creatures in Raqib Shaw's work embody the raw human emotions that we suppress on a day basis, which are usually expressed visually in a "bestial" host. The balance of Shaw's fanciful scenes lull you into a sense of "comfortable voyeurism" as I like to call it, until, at a closer look, they erupt with the unbridled energy of a multicolored supernova. They are frankly dare I say, just fucking beautiful. But beautiful in a way that doesn't make you want to possess but ponder, for fear that possessing such a thing may be more than one can handle. That to me is good art. It is something so completely immersive that it not only impresses you with its unique beauty, but snatches you and owns you, if you look just a moment too long. Art that is capable of possessing its viewer rather than the other way around, in this value-centric climate, that I must say, is truly impressive.

All the latest news from the farm and the kitchen
by Clare Fairs, July 26, 2017
Marinades are a quick and easy way to add flavour to meats, and are great and tenderising too. They can contain a range of ingredients, such as:
The ingredients in marinades work in different ways to add flavour and change the texture of meat. For example, acids break down the protein on the surface, which makes the meat seem more tender. Some ingredients are best suited to red meats, white meats or fish, and the best way to find out is by experimenting with your own combinations (or getting inspiration from our marinade recipes).
Making a marinade is fairly simple. Within just a few minutes, you can whip together a tasty, cost-effective marinade that lasts well in the fridge or freezer. From dry rubs to cook-in sauces, there's lots of scope – and best of all, you can try different combinations depending on which flavours you like best, or what you have in your cupboards.
Although there's no magic formula for the perfect marinade, we do have a few tricks up our sleeve to make sure your homemade marinades are spot-on.
We're big fans of honey as a key ingredient for our marinades here at hillfarm, as it's really good at binding and doesn't generally burn. A dash of cold pressed rapeseed oil is also a must, as the fats help the meat to retain moisture. If you're partial to a summertime barbecue, this is especially important to stop the meat from drying out!
Fresh chopped herbs can be really great in marinades. They're usually found in a rub, and protected by a film of oil or honey which ensures they keep their colour and flavour. Hardy herbs such as rosemary or thyme should be finely chopped to release their flavour, and to reduce the need for a toothpick during the meal!
Marinades should be big on flavour, so don't be afraid to add plenty of your favourite ingredients. If you're too cautious the flavour may be washed out during the cooking process, so it's a case of go big or go home.
If you want lots of flavour, you can increase the surface area of the meat by pounding, spatchcocking or butterflying the flesh. This is also a good time-saving technique, as you won't need to marinade the meat for quite as long.
The oil used in a rub or marinade ensures you get good coverage, and helps to create a cooking sauce. Hillfarm rapeseed oil is a better option than olive oil, as it has a higher burn point and retains its flavour when used in the oven, or introduced to a hot barbecue.
With big flavours that work superbly with fish, this marinade is one of our family favourites here on the farm. Try it yourself, or use it as a base, experiment with extra flavours and let us know how you get on!
Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl, coat the salmon and leave it to marinade for at least 2 hours in the fridge, bringing to room temperature for around 30 minutes before cooking.
The best way to get started with making your own marinades is by getting stuck in and having a go! Discover your own trademark marinade base (I love rapeseed oil, chilli and garlic), and then add different combinations of flavours and ingredients. Let us know how you get on!

Well it's that time of year again. Couples love it, singles dread it, stores thrive from it. Thats right, Valentines Day is here again.
I used to love Valentine's Day. I loved making cards for my classmates. I loved handing out the cards and receiving candies. I loved the anticipation of getting a secret admirer's letter. I loved the red and pink, and all the hearts. I always thought it was so great that we had a day to show our loved ones how we feel.
Then I grew up a bit and I began to realize how lame Valentine's day actually is.
What? You hate the day designated for love? What on earth is wrong with you?
Nothing is wrong with me, but I do believe there is something wrong with Valentine's day. I believe that if you love someone, be it friend, boyfriend/girlfriend, parent or sibling, You should tell them. Right now. Tomorrow. The day after. Next week. Every.Single.Day. Life is too short, and as sad as it sounds, the people you love right now won't always be there.
So by all means, buy your loved one a rose or a box of chocolate today, to remind them of your love. But don't stop there. Everyday, find a way to show the people in your life that you love them.Love goes way beyond Valentines day, and it's ok to express love daily. Whether it's something simple, like helping them out or offering a kind gesture, your actions will speak louder than the box of chocolates the stores want you to buy.
Even if it's something as simple as taking the time to say ¨hey, I care about you¨,showing your loved ones that they mean something to you is important, because everyone needs a reminder that they are wanted.
Don't save up all your love for one day of the year. Be romantic, genuine, caring, loving and kind everyday. Chances are your acts of love will mean more on the random days than on Valentines Day.

The Croning by Laird Barron (2012): Laird Barron has fairly quickly made a name for himself in horror fiction with a unique blend of cosmic horror, graphic depictions of horrific violence, and a constant concern with masculinity and its discontents, satisfactions, and challenges when faced by maggot-like, child-eating horrors from beyond the rim of conventional space-time. Some of Barron's male protagonists (sort of) break even in their confrontations with gibbering, capering, nigh-omnipotent horrors, though generally only through escape or death. Most of them are either destroyed or subverted.
Many of Barron's stories share the same mythology, in which a race of cosmic horrors collectively known as the Children of Old Leech lurk in the lost places of the Earth, spiritually and physically feasting on humans while occasionally offering a small handful of people the "honour" of joining them. Technically speaking, the Leech are both endo- and exocolonists: they conquer from without and within, all in preparation for the day Old Leech itself wakes up hungry and devours the populations of whole planets. Which is what happened to the dinosaurs, among other lost Earth populations.
Yes, he's the feel-good writer of 2012!
The Croning is Barron's first novel, and it's a doozy. For the most part, the narrative follows hapless geologist Don Miller who, in the present day, is in his 80's and plagued by gaps in his memory that, when encountered, his mind scrambles to either explain or forget that such a discovery ever happened (he's even forgotten that he ever knew Spanish well enough to translate Spanish documents).
Don's uncannily young-looking wife of more than 50 years, Michelle Mock, has always pursued the anthropology and archaeology of "lost" tribes, periodically leaving Don for weeks or even months at a time. And as the narrative swings back and forth in time and space, we begin to see why Don's mind is so screwed up — and why, despite his great love for Michelle, he also occasionally fears her.
The horrors here are indeed horrible, the worst coming from the failures of human morality when confronted by terrible tests. Barron weaves history and mythology and legend (including a crackerjack origin for the story of Rumplestiltskin) into this backwards-and-forwards-looking opus, presents the horrors of the flesh and the soul, and gives us scant light in the face of world-annihilating darkness. It's a brilliant debut, but not for the physically or philosophically squeamish. Highly recommended.

The Franklin girls lacrosse team got five goals from Annie Walsh, four from both Erin Walsh and Kelsey MacCallum, and three from Katie Jones in a 16-4 rout of Lexington in the Division 1 East quarterfinals.
FRANKLIN — For the fifth year in a row, the Franklin girls lacrosse team is heading to the Division 1 East semifinals.
Second-seeded Franklin rolled over seventh-seeded Lexington 16-4 on Thursday afternoon in a sectional quarterfinal matchup. The Panthers (14-5) will host third-seeded Concord-Carlisle in the semifinals next Tuesday at 5 p.m. in a rematch of last year's sectional title game that Franklin won. That victory marked Franklin's third Division 1 East title in four years.
This year's run may be the most impressive to date under the guidance of coach Kristin Igoe-Guarino given how much youth has been integrated into Franklin's lineup. The 2018 Panthers have just five seniors and three juniors on this squad, with eight sophomores and eight freshmen.
Thursday's 16-goal outburst also came from just four players, with junior Annie Walsh leading the charge with five goals. Sophomore Erin Walsh and classmate Kelsey MacCallum each added four, and freshman Katie Jones added a hat trick.
"These girls have been competitive all season long and are working really hard," said Igoe-Guarino. "I think just working on our mental game and going through a lot of the X's and O's has helped the development come a little quicker. We've also had a lot of team-building stuff too, so I think all that together has just helped this team grow maybe a little faster than some would've thought.
"Everyone has filled their role exceptionally well, so you can't really tell what grade anyone is in."
Leading 8-2 at the half, Franklin put on a clinic in the second 25 minutes to turn a competitive game into a rout
Jones scored less than a minute in to make it 9-2, and after a quick Lexington response, Erin and Annie Walsh traded goals to push the lead up to 11-3.
Lexington added a goal with 17:54 remaining, but MacCallum completed her hat trick with 12:50 left to make it 12-4, and Erin Walsh followed with her third, pushing the score to 13-4. In the final seven minutes, both Walsh's and MacCallum added a final goal, completing the dominant 12-goal victory.
"I think it has a lot to do with the youth program," MacCallum said when asked how such a young squad can make it look like the same old Franklin team that has been a consistent force at the Division 1 level. "We've all played different places together too, so the experience we have coming into the program makes the transition much easier."
"Growing up, we all hold each other accountable, and obviously Coach [Igoe-Guarino] holds us to a really high standard too," added Annie Walsh. "Our youth program growing up is really competitive against other top-tier programs; it really helps you adapt quicker jumping to the high-school level."
The Panthers made sure to assert themselves early on Thursday, jumping out to a 7-0 lead.
MacCallum picked up a ground ball and fired a shot home to get things rolling less than two minutes in, and a quick-stick goal from Annie Walsh from a pass by Erin Walsh quickly made it 2-0. Jones scored two quick goals over the next two minutes to make it 4-0, and a laser into the top left corner by Erin Walsh with 14:32 put Franklin up 5-0.
Two straight goals from Annie Walsh pushed the lead to 7-0 before some miscommunication in front of sophomore goalie Gianna Cameron (2 saves) allowed the Minutemen to get on the board.
Another MacCallum goal with 1:30 left made it 8-1 before a Lexington goal with less than 30 seconds remaining made it 8-2 heading into halftime.
"No one on this team is selfish and we're able to work really well as a team. I think that was the biggest thing we showed today," said Erin Walsh.
Franklin will have a tall task ahead if it wants to reach a fifth consecutive Division 1 East championship game as Concord-Carlisle will be looking for revenge after Franklin earned a dominant 16-7 win in last year's sectional final.
"They're fast and they've had some up-and-down games this year like we have, and they're going to be looking for some payback after last year too," said Igoe-Guarino. "They're going to be ready to go and we have to make sure we are as well."

I thought I'd create a perfect everyday Autumn look for make up beginners. This look allows you to experiment with blending different eyeshadows together but still looks very minimal and basic, which is why it is perfect if you are just starting out with make up.
I started by applying my Illamasqua skin base and then concealer under my eyes with Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. Then I patted Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Eternal Gold all over my lid. Next I took Urban Decay's eyeshadow in Underground to the outer third of my lid and blended the colours together.
Continuing with the eyes I used Maybelline The Rocket Volum' on both my upper and lower lashes. For the cheeks I used a L'Oreal le blush compact blush which is a dusty pink colour. To finish, I applied Clinique Long Last Glosswear in Guava Gold for a sheer pink lip.
What I used

Fans will fall silent on Saturday ahead of the Gable Endies League 2 match against Annan Athletic in a special tribute to our war heroes past and present.
In a first for the football club in modern times, players will be led onto the pitch by standard bearers before a solo bugler plays the last post ahead of the traditional minutes silence.
After the match, a unique and commemorative shirt, signed by the first team squad will be auctioned off with proceeds going to the Royal British Legion.
Organiser and Vice Chairman of the Montrose Branch of the Royal British Legion, Ally Hutchison explained, "It is great to see the Legion and the football club working so closely together on this and I must thank Montrose FC for all their support in helping us mark this special day."
The Royal British Legion was founded by veterans after the First World War and a century on they are still helping today's Service men and women, veterans, and their families in almost every aspect of daily life.
The Montrose branch was formed in November 1931 with members meeting once a month in a recreational hall in Mill Street before moving to Queen Street in 1933. In 1964 the Artillery Territorial HQ in Wellington Street was purchased by the War Office and became the home of the Montrose Branch, where it remains today.
The teams on Saturday will be led out by the Legion standard bearer, retired Bombardier Ron Blacklaws, a former soldier based at the Artillery Headquarters in Wellington Street and groundsman of 6 years at Links Park back in the 1960's. Ron will be flanked by Lance Bombardier Lewis Gaskin of the Royal Artillery, Montrose Army Cadet Force and Cadet Flight Sergeant Jamal Ronald of 2288 Squadron, Montrose Air Training Corps.
The solo bugler will be Kirstina Fairweather of the Montrose Town Band.
Club Chairman John Crawford said, "This is set to be a fitting and emotional tribute and one that most of our fans will never have witnessed at Links Park before. When the Legion approached us with the idea we were more than happy to help and it is all the more fitting with the 11th coinciding with a home match."
Fans are requested to arrive at least 10 minutes ahead of kickoff to allow the tribute to be conducted uninterrupted.
Our photo shows Mo Boss Stewart Petrie with Ron, showing off the specially commissioned poppy red shirt complete with embroidered match details and the immortal words 'Lest We Forget'. Signed by the players, the shirt will be framed and fans can now bid for the auction item via the football club's Facebook page.

Notes: Thank you to my beta Mago186.
Notes: Au, univerise. The title of this story is from the Blue October song - Hate Me. finally posting another part, after re-writing this chapter several times.
Disclaimer: These are not characters of my own creation
Summary: what if Dean was the little brother. Sam still went away to college but he left his little brother with his dad figuring, foolishly, that he could trust his old man to take care of him.
Sam had kissed him.
His older brother, the one person he had slowly begun to let his defenses down for had kissed him. With that one simple act,
It didn't occur to him that he should have phoned Sam to let him know he was okay. He didn't want to know if he had broken Sam's nose. He wasn't interested.
"Are you ready to tell me what happened?" Bobby asked. Since
"Where are the dogs?" Dean asked. He wasn't ready to talk to Bobby about Sam. He was in no mood to describe just how screwed up his family relationships were. He didn't want to admit that he was a failure.
He put his mug of coffee on the porch next to his chair and got up. He couldn't sit still when he had to talk about his past. He had to keep moving so that it would be easier to leave. Looking at
It was by sheer force of will that the older man managed to keep his eyebrows from rising. Dean did not need his disapproval. He needed someone who was willing to listen to him, but not judge. "What caused Sam to kiss you?"
"Do you remember Jerry Parowski the guy dad and I saved from a poltergeist?"
"Yeah. He handled the existence of the supernatural far better than most people we meet. Is he still the lead mechanic for United Britannia Airlines?" He knew very well what Jerry did for work. He had formed a relationship with the man. He had helped Jerry to understand the supernatural world so that the man would be better able to protect himself.
"He phoned me, asking for my help with a plane crash."
"I haven't heard anything about a plane crash." A plane of any type usually made national news. The fact it remained unreported made him suspicious.
"It wasn't a plane full of children. The crash had seven survivors and it was by questioning them we discovered a possessed man had opened the pressure sealed hatch. To prevent another plane crash we had to go on a plane and perform an exorcism mid flight."
"Shit, how did you manage to get on the plane and make it though the flight?" He was one of the only people who knew how much Dean hated to be confined to small places without any chance of a quick exit.
"Hummed some metallica songs. After twenty minutes, I turned all of my focus on the job. I didn't want my uneasiness to be used against me by the demon. Through the entire flight and hunt,
Unwilling to cast judgement on
"I didn't wait for an explanation. I just had to get out of the motel room."
"Does Sam know you are here?" He knew that Sam would be worried about Dean's state of mind and safety.
"You need to let him know your okay."
He looked out across the front yard and attempted to calm his emotions to the point where his answer to Bobby wouldn't be rude. "Sam doesn't need to know my every movement. I need time to relax. I am not going to get that with Sam by my side."
"I understand that you need a little space from him, but you need to let him know you're safe and okay."
"How can you even understand what I need?"
"You can't keep pushing people away every time they get to close. Can you honestly tell me that you don't feel the same way towards him? If anyone else had done this to you and it wasn't wanted you would be in a police cell right now on an assault charge."
Taking a breath, he found the strength to reply with words that were painful. "This has happened to me before and I never ended up in a police cell."
"Dad loves me but he still hurt me. What Sam did may have been different but it doesn't make it hurt any less."
Knowing that the next words he spoke would only draw
"He lied to me. He told me he was ready to be a big brother but he was just telling me what I wanted to hear. He only wants one thing from me and it's nothing to do with love."
He could only shake his head in sadness at Dean's low opinion of himself. Sam's love wasn't something that came with strings attached. He had to help Dean realize that. "Why do you believe Sam would use you?"
"It's all I'm good for."
"Why do you believe that happiness isn't an emotion you should be allowed to have?"
Looking at some unseen point on the porch, he replied. "When I was a kid I always had to be perfect in everything I did. Every weapon I cleaned took hours because it had to be perfect. If someone passed comment on how I had cleaned those weapons I took it as a failure."
"Every person goes though a period in their life when things have to be done in a precise manner. There is nothing wrong with a little perfection."
"Most people can stop before that need for perfection gets obsessive. I couldn't stop Bobby. With me, it reached the stage when every time dad would raise his voice to me I would start cleaning a weapon. I even cleaned a gun when the impala was parked outside a police station. That isn't normal behaviour."
"When did you stop?"
"I never managed to stop completely. I am not so obsessive about it now but with Sam and I being in close quarters again the tension between us has become unbearable. To deal with some of that tension, I clean all the weapons we have. Sam always thinks that I am just being a perfectionist when it comes to weapons maintenance. He doesn't realize that I am doing it to deflect certain responses from him."
"Sam is nothing like John. He doesn't expect you to be perfect. He just wants you to be happy,"
"I know Sam isn't like dad, but sometimes he does things that remind me of dad and it scares me. I hate feeling like that."
"Why do you so feel so guilty for feeling something so normal?"
Curling his lips slightly in disgust at how emotional the conversation was becoming he said, "I've seen supernatural beings that would scare the sane, insane. Not once did I feel any fear. My childhood wasn't … conventional, but I can't use that as an excuse for being scared."
"Stop trying to dismiss what John has done to you. He took away your childhood. Don't let him take away Sam."
"What are you, my therapist?"
"Don't attempt to stop this conversation with a joke. You came to my house for a reason. It wasn't to tell me about the kiss. We both know that
"It's … stupid." He paused, but was unable to hold in the words that burst out. "Fuck, first you start acting like my therapist and now you're like some chick with PMS. I'm not going to share all of my secrets with you."
"I'll let the swear word and insults pass for now. I'll put it down to the nature of this conversation. I have watched you grow up and I consider you the son I never had. I bitterly regret that I didn't know badly John treated you. I want to help you Dean."
"How Dad chose to raise me wasn't your fault."
"Who do you blame yourself? What John did isn't your fault. There are just some people who should never be parents."
"He is still my dad. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today."
"Who you are has nothing to do with that man. Any kindness, compassion and good nature you have comes from your mom. John has only given you the life of a soldier."
"Don't talk about my dad like that. He may have made many mistakes, but he is still my dad. You have no right to bad mouth him."
"I owe John nothing. I only want you to feel safe and comfortable with me. I want you to be able to tell me what bought you here."
"It has nothing to do with a kiss."
"Damn it Bobby give me a chance to complete a sentence. Sam kissed me and that may have been what caused me to drive to your house. It's not why I am here.
John was going to pay for what he had done to Dean. In the past few days,
"When I was on a hunt with dad I was never quick enough with a gun. He would always get injured."
"I would bet that those injuries are no more serious than bruise or a cut that may have required a few stitches. Those types of injuries are commonplace for hunters. You can't stop them from happening."
"He broke an arm once. I could have stopped that from happening."
"Was the cause a hunt or a bar fight."
"It was a hunt that involved an angry spirit who liked to hurt kids." It had never occurred to
"How old were you when this hunt took place?"
"Old enough."
"That means John used you as bait to draw out the spirit. Most spirits are violent and you can never predict their reactions or behaviour. It was the spirit who injured John, you are not responsible."
"I should have been better prepared."
Licking his lips
John was definitely going to lose everything. He would make sure hunters only gave John the smallest amount of information to complete a hunt. There would be no easy or endless supply of weapons. John would have to work harder. "Sam will never leave you."
"We didn't have any contact for six years. How can I accept him as more than a brother when I don't know if he will stay with me?"
"Do you trust Sam?"

text: Hello, I'm having some strange problems with my computer. I have a Toshiba Satellite A205-S5000 laptop running Windows Vista. I'll start from where I think it might have began: A few months ago I only had about 3 gigabytes of memory left on my laptop. Then I accidently dropped my laptop on the floor. Suddenly after dropping it I now had 17GB of memory(???), so I started downloading more stuff. The only real problem I had at the time was that after dropping it, when I would play videos my computer would occasionally freeze or stall and you can hear something that sounds like a wind up toy being wound up 2 or 3 times followed by an audible click. This isn't a random sound, it follows the same wind/click pattern every time. It doesn't sound like it's coming from my hard drive but on the other side where my CD/DVD tray is. When my computer starts to click like this, if I don't close Windows Media Player or whatever program I'm using my comp will sometimes bluescreen. I'd never gotten a BSOD before until after dropping my laptop. Flash forward to now. I don't know if this started with the drop, but I can't go into Safe Mode. When I try it just goes to a certain screen that never finishes loading. I also can't save any restore points. If I try to make a restore point it will disappear. Now the freeze up thing is happening more often and I seem to have some kind of malware on top of it. I'm getting a System Event error when I start my computer and it seems like I have a different problem every time I start my computer up. These are some of the issues it has: it takes a very long time to reboot and stays on a black screen for at least 5 minutes before the log-in screen finally appears my Audio Service will be turned off for no apparent reason when I try to use my microphone to Skype or record something my audio is low and buried under electronic-sounding background noise(this one I really need fixed) computer sometimes has delayed reactions and mini-freezes like a malware infection when browsing and typing my Windows theme has switched to a blocky, plain default Sometimes when I reboot I won't be able to browse the internet even though it says I'm connected, forcing me to restart from the last known good configuration I don't know what's wrong with my computer, but nothing is showing up in my Ad-Aware scans. And since I can't go into safe mode or revert to a restore point, I've been out of luck trying to fix it. I've attached View attachment hijackthis log1.txt my HijackThis log.

I want to thank the voters for electing me to the Board of the Destin Fire Control District. It has been an honor to serve you the last two years, and I will continue to serve you as long as you allow. As your representative I take my job very seriously and protect the taxpayers whenever I can. That�s why I voted against a motion to support the May 14vote that could end up raising your taxes by 375 percent.
As board member my original intent was not to take an active role in fighting against the potential tax increase and only to provide information to the taxpayers when asked.
However, on Easter morning my family and I received an anonymous death threat. The sheriff�s office is investigating but I refuse to be intimidated by anyone, so I will no longer sit by and allow the union to push this blank check through without at least putting accurate information before you.
Here are some of the many questions I have been asked over and over and over and the information I believe the taxpayers should be aware of before voting on May 14.
Question: Why does the district claim we have a million dollar shortfall in our budget and why do we need to cut services?
Answer: I�ve asked this question myself and no one can answer it. The fact is our budget is not short, we will not need to cut services, and every asset the district owns is 100 percent paid for � buildings, trucks, etc. The district owes nothing.
Question: During the tough economy the city has dropped its tax rate over the last 10 years. What has the Fire District cut from its budget?
Answer: I�ve asked this question too in a public meeting and could not get an answer. What I know is that just prior to me being elected the district supported a one-time pay raise of approximately 26 percent for its employees. The only reduction I can find in our budget is a cut for paper clips, envelopes, and stamps.
Question: Where could we cut from the budget?
Answer: In preparing the budget, evidently no one from the Fire District got an official estimate from the Property Appraiser�s office to find out how much we would lack. Well, I spoke to the property appraiser and I�m not sure any cuts will need to be made, because the tax rolls won�t be certified until just after the election on May 14. I have proposed that we wait until the tax roll is certified before asking for a tax increase but that�s not popular with the union.
Question: How much do firefighters make and what benefits do they have?
Answer: We have top notch firefighters and I�m proud of every one. Only 23 percent of the District�s 30 firefighters live in Destin, but approximately 90 percent of our entire budget is employee related. The union pushed for and your fire commissioners approved an average salary and benefits package of approximately $106,000 per year. According to the United States Census Bureau that�s almost double the median household income for Okaloosa County. They also get approximately 11 weeks of annual vacation and sick pay. Additionally, our current firefighters only need to work for 20 years before they can retire with full benefits. This 20 year retirement package is one of the most lucrative in all the business.
This tax increase will not be used to raise the level of service or purchase more equipment. If the voters approve, it will be spent for even higher salaries and benefits � and that�s not justifiable in these tough economic conditions.
Question: Why is the district asking for the opportunity to raise taxes by 375 percent, which is the maximum allowed by the State of Florida?
Answer: I�ve asked the same question over and over and have not received a good answer. What I know is that we currently have $4 million in reserves yet the tax increase you are being asked to support is nothing more than a blank check, and Destin taxpayers will be on the hook for the potential increase of over $17,000,000 per year.
When you see a hanger on your doorknob, a letter in your mailbox, or sign in someone�s yard, please know the �Vote Yes� campaign is not being financed by the Destin firefighters. It has been mostly funded by people from outside this area and by special interests from Tallahassee.
My name is Mike Buckingham. As your representative I encourage you to do your homework before voting on May 14. If you have questions please call me at (850) 259-6533.
Mike Buckingham a member of the Destin Fire Control District board of commissioners. He was the only commissioner who voted against the voter referendum that would allow the district to max out the millage cap.

of Louisville passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 26, 2013 with loved ones by his side.
He was born September 7, 1944 in Pasadena, CA, the son of the late William James Giles and Dorothy Lillian Finch Giles.
William received his Undergraduate degree in Journalism from San Diego State College, and a Masters degree in Public Administration from George Washington University while in the U.S. Coast Guard where he made a career. After devoting over 24 years of service to the U.S. Guard where he retired as a Captain, he went on to work as a Grants Administrator for Virginia Tech, University of Georgia, and Kansas State University.
He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He loved to travel with his wife in their RV and see the beauty of the country and all it had to offer.
William is preceded in death by his two half brothers, James and Norval Giles and his beloved canine companions, Daisy and Pookie.
He is survived by his wife of 30 years, Janice (Blankenship) Giles; children, Robin L. Woodward (Matthew), Andrew G. Giles, and Alexander M. Giles (Danielle); two grandchildren, Ainsley and Timothy; sister, Mary I. Heinen (Denny); special friend and neighbor, Stephen Straub, and numerous nieces, nephews, and granddogs.
Cremation was chosen. A celebration of life will be later in the spring. Ratterman's, 12900 Shelbyville Road, East Louisville was entrusted with arrangements.
The family asks that memorial gifts in William's name be made to the James Graham Brown Cancer Center Research Department, University of Louisville.

In Joshua Harris' book, I Kissed Dating Goodbye, he writes about God's gift of singleness. One of the headings in chapter 4 reads this way:
My unmarried years are a gift from God.
Sometimes, we don't see the blessings in front of us because we are in such a hurry to get to the next phase of life. That is true for pretty much every stage of life. We are in junior high, and we can't wait to get to high school. We can't wait to drive. It's winter and we want summer. We want kids, and then look forward to their eighteenth birthday! We can't wait to retire, and then we sit around and long for the good old days. What if we stopped and thanked God for where we are in life right now? So many times in life, I've found myself looking over the fence to the next goal, the next phase in life. I know that is true for many other folks as well.
There is a blessing in being single, young men and women. Of course there is nothing wrong with wanting to be married or pursuing marriage. But be thankful for where you are right now. Why would you want God to bless you for the next phase in life when you aren't thankful for the current one?
I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord. But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife, and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband. I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.
(1 Corinthians 7:32-35, ESV)
Paul is not speaking against marriage at all, but he is talking reality. If you are married, you have a God-given obligation to care for and serve your spouse. In marriage you have vowed to become one flesh for life. There will be things you cannot do anymore simply because you have to take care of a family. That is not a negative thing, it is just reality.
So, that being said, you have a God-given blessing and gift of being single, so don't be in such a hurry to end that period of your life.
Ask God to help you see the blessings of singleness. Thank God for this phase of your life. Pray for God to use you for His glory whether single or married.
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
(Philippians 4:19-20)

Lesson 206- Lessons 203,204&205 are based on the physical restrictions of the source of motion. Better to go with it, rather than fight it.
Lesson 207-You can't ignore your stroke mechanics. Even if you describe yourself as a feel player. Develop a personal strategy-stay with it.
Lesson208-Think of feel and mechanics on a sliding scale. All Feel at one end and All Mechanics at the other. Where do you fall on the scale?
Lesson 209-Mechanics or Feel? Find a Balance. Focus your practice time on improvement of the weaker rather than perfection of the stronger.
Lesson 210-Feel players tend to have great distance control. Mechanics superior control of direction. What does your putting strategy need?
Lesson 211-Different putter designs have a different feel in motion and at impact. Putter fitting is all about matching feel with motion.
Lesson 212-Building a putting strategy? It helps to make mechanical decisions first and then focus on feel. Change mechanics=change in feel.
Lesson 213-Build a stroke you can repeat. Don't be fooled by "best way" theories. No one ever won a major copying another player's stroke.
Lesson 214 - Depending on the expert, putter path has a 5-18 % influence on direction. If so, what is the value of parallel alignment? None!
Lesson 215-Putting has different requirements than full swing. A ball rolling is different than ball in flight. You can't control the curve!
Lesson 216-Instead of forced body alignment and manipulated putter face, why not try an alignment that supports how YOU release the putter?
Lesson 217-How do you release the putter? Three basic types: Hold-lead hand dominates. Square-hands work in sync. Full-trail hand over lead. Lesson
Lesson 218-Match alignment to release. Hold - Open stance, Square - Parallel alignment, Full - Closed set up. Don't fight yourself!
Lesson 219-Match body alignment to release. Matching release to a forced posture forces you to manipulate the release of the putter as well.
Lesson 220-Putter grip has influence on the amount of rotation you have in your stroke. Feel can be misleading-better to match size to need.
