Davis Internship
Thanks to the generosity of Evan and Elizabeth Davis, a fluent Welsh-speaking young adult is hired to work at the Madog Center for Welsh Studies for a two-year period. That person receives a small stipend, along with tuition and room & board towards a MA in Integrated Arts Program through URG. This brings a great Welsh dynamic to all of our programs and activities.
We welcomed Alis Newberry from Cross Keys to our campus in August, 2014.
Below is information of some of our previous interns!
Lisa Jones with the Amazing Kids Choir from Oak Hill Elementary
Lisa Jones, from near Aberystwyth, Wales, is the third Davis Intern. Lisa is a graduate of Trinity Saint David in Carmarthen, Wales, and first visited Rio Grande in the spring of 2009 when she participated in the Welsh exchange program. Lisa is working on a variety of projects and loves teaching Welsh language and songs to school children.
The Davis Internship program grew out of the need to have a fluent Welsh-speaker on campus to help with the projects and programs of the Madog Center and also to do out-reach in the surrounding Welsh-American community.
Thanks to the generous support of Even and Elizabeth Davis, Of Oak Hill, the internship has been ongoinging since the summer of 2007 when the terms of the Davis Scholarship were transmuted into the Davis Internship.
Sioned Wyn, from Cardiff, Wales, was the first Davis intern. She was working as a translator for the Cardiff Counsel when she saw our advertisement and decided to interview for the position. After being selected, Sioned packed up her things and flew over to Rio Grande to spend the next year working in the Madog Center.

Lucy Hannah Thomas, from Nantycws, near Carmarthen, was the second Davis Intern. Lucy has spent the spring term of her second year at the University of Rio Grande as a participant in the exchange program we have with University of Wales, Trinity Saint David. After she graduated in 2009, she planned a visit to campus as part of her summer in the US. It was during that month she spent with us as a volunteer at the center that we knew she would be our next intern. Because of her background in theater, Lucy worked with Dr. Greg Miller on a number of theatrical productions while she was in Rio Grande.

Last month my 9-12 year old book club kids had a special treat: the author of the book they read offered to speak with them via Skype! I was very excited to give my book clubbers this opportunity. The Skype session took up most of our meeting, so instead of describing what we did, I will offer some author Skype tips:
- Test all equipment and have a backup plan. I made sure the computer had completed any necessary updates and knew how to contact the author via other means besides Skype in case Skype decided not to cooperate (Gmail offers a video chat option, which is good for this kind of emergency).
- Let the kids know in advance. Not only did this ensure that my kids all came to book club on time, but they also had the opportunity to prepare some questions to ask. I had a list of standard questions that I was willing to let them borrow, if needed, but most of them had prepared their questions when they read the book.
- Use a "look here" note. Kids might be used to using technology, but they are still tempted to look at a screen instead of at a camera when video chatting. I put a sticky note next to the laptop's camera that said "Look here" so they would have a reminder to look at the camera, not at the screen.
- Prepare a thank-you note. I had a thank-you note ready to go so the kids could sign it after the chat was over. The author was grateful to get the note, and the kids were able to practice gratitude.
Overall, our Skype session went very well. The kids asked some good questions and got some neat information from the author, and I now have a list of all the other authors they would like me to contact for future Skype sessions. This isn't something I can do for every single book club meeting, but it definitely was worth it for an occasional treat.

It was my turn this month to set one of the challenges and for whatever reason I felt the need to do something different. Rather than 'churn out' another layout, I wanted to go 'off the page'. I never do OTPs (LOL) but for whatever reason this time I did!
Once was
(a Forrero Rocher chocolate box)
Of course being a D-lish Scraps challenge I've used lots of yummy D-lish Scraps products .. white Mini, Small and Mixed Size roses, blue Cherry Blossoms, white Spiral Stamens, aqua blue and lime Coloured Wire, white Sequins and a Resin Bird.
I added Tim Holtz Distress Stickles in clear rock candy to the Mixed Size roses to give them a lift. I curled the aqua blue and lime Coloured Wire together, twisted them off at the bottom and then pulled the curls apart just a little. I cut the Spiral Stamens in half as they were otherwise too big, and I can use the remaining halves on another project.
I hope if you're free this weekend that you'll join us in The Scrap Suite and give one (or all) of the cyber crop challenges a go! Happy cyber cropping!!

In 2009, PETA took in 2366 animals. Of those, they adopted out 8. That's a .34% adoption rate. I can't help wondering if, given the number of staff, interns and volunteers at PETA, they couldn't have adopted out more pets to themselves. It's not realistic to think every staffer could adopt a pet every year but it certainly seems like they could have found homes for more than 8 pets among their ranks. I wonder too if they could have appealed to their 2 million supporters for homes for these 2366 animals. Many killing "shelters" utilize their own websites, along with other online resources such as Petfinder, to try to find homes for the pets in their care. In this way, their potential reach is greatly expanded and they don't have to rely solely on staff or supporters to adopt the pets in their care. Where were these 2366 animals PETA took in listed? Or did they not even try to find homes for them?
As longtime PETA staffer Daphna Nachminovitch testified at the 2007 Piggly Wiggly dumpster trial:
"PETA does not maintain an animal shelter. PETA has a couple -- we call them 'quarantine rooms' -- which are used to house animals that are held for one reason or another. And animals who are, who have a chance for adoption, are usually fostered in private homes. We do not have a public facility that's open to the public where people can stroll through and pick an animal. That's not a service that we are able to provide. We're an office building."Did you ever hear anyone who supposedly cares about animals make pet adoption sound so dirty? "...[P]eople can stroll through and pick an animal" - eww, those filthy people who want to adopt pets. Look how they stroll though like they have some kind of right to save a pet. And then they pick an animal they want to care for and love. It makes me sick!
The question that makes me sick: How does killing 97% of the animals in your care, apparently without even trying to find homes for them, jive with the phrase "ethical treatment of animals"? Killing healthy/treatable pets is not ethical. Duping the public to the tune of millions of dollars with the notion that your group helps animals is not ethical. Operating a pet slaughterhouse while filing as a tax-exempt charity organization is not ethical.
Pet friends don't let pet friends donate to PETA. Find your local no kill shelter and make a donation there instead. It's the ethical thing to do.


text: Here's my problem and I hope someone can help. Yesterday my email was loading onto my phone with no issues. I was able to send and receive emails from my cox.net account This morning I noticed I did not get any alerts that I had email, and I know that there were new emails on the server. I tried to use the email icon on the phone and the message comes up that my emails are loading but it never loads. I called verizon and the tech there told to delete the account and re-enter it. I did that and it did not help. He said that the issue then would be, that the port number is wrong and that I have to call my internet provider to get a new port number. But he has seen this with other customers with smart phones. I called Cox Communications and they said it is a Verizon issue and they are not allowed to give out port numbers. Did anyone have this problem?

Kindergarten Meets the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
My youngest child finished a wonderful year of kindergarten today. A couple of days ago, the kindergarten class, along with many parents, grandparents, and teachers, filled the school gym for the annual Kindergarten Talent Show.
When the show was announced, my daughter had to decide which of her "talents" she wanted to display. In an effort to keep things simple (and keep her stress level low), I suggested to her that she memorize and recite a couple of poems by Shel Silverstein or Ogden Nash. She politely rebuffed my suggestion, telling me she wanted to play the piano and sing. The catch, of course, is that my kid doesn't play the piano.
Having hung around enough of my band rehearsals, however, she knew that plenty of folks had made hay (and even gold records) out of some basic chord progressions. She favored the I-vi-IV-V progression in the key of C, and ended up parlaying that bit of knowledge into a heart-felt talent-show performance of Dion's "Teenager in Love" that made my wife and me smile.
On June 2, while my daughter was honing her performance of a classic by one member of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, another member -- the sorely under-appreciated Bo Diddley -- passed away.
Bo's passing reminded me of another special moment I shared with my youngest daughter at the start of her kindergarten year. Last September, during a break in one of my Sunday morning basketball games at the local YMCA, she brought her little basketball onto the floor and began to dribble it for me. She told me to listen to her dribbling pattern -- Boom, Boom, Boom . . . . BOOM, BOOM. I laughed because I knew what we she was thinking. She said, "Daddy, I'm dribbling with a Bo Diddley beat."
It was a priceless moment I will never forget. God bless Bo Diddley.

"Hello allergy season," I said yesterday in the afternoon … "I see you're here to totally kick my ass again!" With the unusual weather pattern this year, I predicted lots of pollen and a difficult season. After years of allergies, I just get in the best shape I can, ride tempo and easy through the worst of it, and relax.
I've been as drugged up as Rush Limbaugh, tried herbs, and even acupuncture, and it all comes down to the fact that I'll feel much better once the trees stop doing their thing.
Even worse is the summer smog and I watch the air quality here.
Anyone else feeling it like me and how do you cope?

Hain urges PM Theresa May to intervene in Northern Ireland talks process
Urgent summit needed to prevent direct rule, says Lord Hain
Prime Minister Theresa May and Enda Kenny must call an urgent summit to prevent direct rule's return in Northern Ireland, the former Secretary of State Peter Hain has said
Lord Hain - who once said he would be the last direct rule Northern Ireland Secretary of State - said should direct rule be implemented, "the precedent is ominous".
As talks resume at Stormont to resurrect power-sharing, involving both Secretary of State James Brokenshire and Irish Foreign Affairs minister Charlie Flanagan, Lord Hain has called on Theresa May to intervene.
"Northern Ireland always has to be on the Prime Minister's plate," he told the BBC.
"One of the issues that has bedevilled this process - since 2010 - is that it hasn't always been. Number 10 has often taken its eye off the ball.
"Of course she has a lot on her plate over Brexit, indeed Brexit is a complicating factor in terms of what happens with the border and the question of the right of Northern Ireland citizens to Irish citizenship, so there is a complication which doesn't help.
"So she needs to roll up her sleeves and call a summit which is urgently needed.
"What has happened in the past is that the parties have welcomed a summit convened jointly by the British and Irish governments in order for them to find ways to get an agreement that might not have happened face to face in Stormont.
"It worked in the past and could work again."
He added: "We have a situation where it has potential to be resolved. You have women at the top of Northern Ireland politics, very strikingly in Arlene Foster, Michelle O'Neill and Naomi Long.
"That's broken the mould. The question now is, can they strike a deal where their male predecessors were unable to do?
"Arlene foster has to show real leadership and magnanimity and equally Sinn Fein has to be open to compromise rather than having hard lines."
Should the parties not strike a deal in the next thee weeks and return an Executive, the Secretary of State must call an election or seek to implement emergency legislation for direct rule.
Lord Hain, writing in the Guardian, added: "If a combination of short-sighted London ministers and intransigent local politicians allows Northern Ireland to slip back into direct rule, the precedent is ominous.
"It took five years - from 2002 to 2007 - before we were able finally to devolve power. Who knows how long again if, as many are despairingly predicting, direct rule is repeated?"

Stephen Moyer & Samantha Barks: 'Chicago the Musical' Stars!
Stephen Moyer and Samantha Barks are set to star in a one weekend only staging of Chicago the Musical at the Hollywood Bowl!
The 43-year-old True Blood actor will play the lawyer Billy Flynn while the 22-year-old Les Miserables actress will play the role of murderer Velma Kelly.
Lucy Lawless will be playing Matron Mama Morton while Drew Carey will be play Amos Hart. The casting for leading lady Roxie Hart will be announced at a later date!
"I have a great feeling about this entire cast," Brooke Shields, who is directing the production, said in a statement. "I am excited for everyone to see how brilliant Samantha Barks is on stage. We've seen Stephen Moyer sing on True Blood – and that dark, sexy side of Billy will be well served by him. Drew played the Dad in Hairspray at the Bowl two years ago, and he will bring not only comedy but depth to our Amos. I wouldn't say no to anything Lucy Lawless ordered me to do…as "Mama" or in life!! And let's not forget the most exciting character … the Bowl itself!"
Chicago will be performed at the Hollywood Bowl from July 26-28!
WHAT DO YOU THINK of the casting of this production of Chicago?

(BLOOMINGTON) - A 17-year-old boy who is accused of the armed robbery of the CVS Pharmacy in Bloomington and who is also a suspect in the armed robbery of Marsh on February 17 and the attempted robbery of the Journey's store in College Mall on January 31 and will be charged as an adult.
The Bloomington Police officers arrested Philip Jacob on Feb. 18 for resisting law enforcement after he was reportedly seen huffing cans of keyboard cleaner at the downtown bus terminal.
Police found a BB gun designed to look like a Beretta 9 millimeter handgun in Jacob's book bag along with four cans of compressed air keyboard cleaners, white gloves and blue latex gloves similar to those worn by the second suspect during the robbery at CVS South and by both suspects during the robbery at Marsh North, according to court documents.
According to BPD Sgt. Steve Kellams, Jacob was charged as a juvenile with resisting law enforcement and was released to his parents.
But on February 20th, an Avon police officer arrested Jacob after he allegedly robbed a taxi driver at gun point.
Avon police found Jacob was armed with another BB gun similar to the one he had during the other crimes.
The Monroe County Prosecutor's Office has decided to charge Jacob as an adult, because the crimes were committed with what the law considers a deadly weapon.

Friday the plumber and electrician came back. We had the electrician do a bunch of work around the place while they were here. A whole new board installed on the front of the house, the long promised heat lamps in the bathroom and the kitchen stuff. Our kitchen has 12 double power points, plus a single for the fridges, which run through a double surge protector. I'm hoping its enough ;-)
Saturday Magic Matt installed our larger shelves, the trim boards to fasten my hanging rods to, and the handles on the doors. I suspect they leave the handles off until it's safe for you to use the cupboards.
Saturday and Sunday we painted and moved in. There's still shelving in the pantry to go in - so food is still in the dining room. And the hanging rods have to wait until the splashbacks are in. So utensils are a bit of a mess.
Two small hiccups with the entire project. We looked at taps and said, "We want that one." The appliance company ordered and delivered a tap, which we carefully put in the corner for the plumber. I went to try my new 'pull out' tap on Friday night and found it didn't pull out :-( I checked the order form and the tap installed in my kitchen was the tap on the order form, but it wasn't the tap I asked for in the store.
This morning Daniel spoke with the store. We have no proof of a mix up, but they accepted that the tap wasn't the one I asked for. They are sending someone out on Monday to uninstall the unwanted tap and install the one I wanted. The one I wanted was quite a bit more expensive than the one we got, so we're paying the difference. I am very impressed with the service. Although I'm unlikely to be renovating a kitchen again in the near future, they will be my first port of call if I need larger appliances, and I will be recommending them to anyone who asks. So - if you need fridges, stoves, oven, sinks, taps, laundry tubs, washers, dryers - try Winnings. We went to the Indooroopilly store, but I'm sure they're all great.
Second issue was the microwave shelves. I envisaged a wall of shelves, broken by the rangehood. There was concern that the microwave would be awkward to access if it was in a the corner. I agreed to have the shelves in the corner turned 90 degrees. Once the shelves were installed we realised that the microwave door only opens about 75 degrees and bangs into the rangehood. Hmmm, so I sacrificed a visual aesthetic for functionality, which I didn't get. Again, Daniel spoke with Magic Matt this morning, and the shelves will be moved. As the ad used to say, it won't happen overnight, but it will happen. I'd be happy to live with it for six months, now that I know its going to be right in the end. Heck, I lived with the kitchen as was for 14 years.
And so, some photos.
|Daniel hard at work painting. These are the shelves that are moving 90°. Blue sticky notes were my planning of what goes where.
|Message on the wall behind the splashbacks for whoever next renovates the kitchen.
|She said, 'smile'.
|How to use the new oven.
|Looking like a kitchen. The old kitchen looked like a kitchen too, but this one looks like a really functional and lovely kitchen.
|The window frame looks a little tacky. It will be green.
|Looking into the kitchen from the dining room.
|Walk into the kitchen, turn at the end of the fridges, and there's more.
|And still more. These two walls will have open shelving. The short wall separates the lounge room, so the shelves visible above it will be for display items - vases, large platters, fancy plates etc.
|My can rack that I just love.
|Last night I cooked a roast. Tonight I cooked biscuits. I didn't often cook biscuits in the pizza oven. It cooked great biscuits, just in small batches. With a full size oven, I can cook a week's worth of biscuits in one go.
- dishwasher goes in on Wednesday (YAY!)
- splashbacks will be about two weeks
- shelves in the pantry
- move the microwave shelf
- new tap
- work out under sink storage (waiting for the dishwasher to see what room there is)
- hanging rods and hooks for utensils
- hooks in the ceiling frame behind the fridges for hanging pans

This is the guy -- the chief political analyst for ABC News -- who blocked me on Twitter and insulted me personally for pointing out over and over again that his pathological Both Siderism was bullshit in the face of an openly racist, paranoid, rage-drunk shithole Republican Party.
Bwahahaha!Another Dowd line in the sand. If you come on my twitter feed defending President Trump's latest racist remarks you will be blocked. If you think it is fine being "deplorable" i don't want you on my social media.— Matthew Dowd (@matthewjdowd) January 12, 2018

Danny Can You Hear Me?
The technology on these devices is amazing. This set has 5 separate programs for such differing environments as loud background noise, music listening, close conversation and talking behind my back. Nah, just kidding on that last one. The devices sense the noise level and move to the appropriate program, which then adjusts the device so I have maximum hearing. I don't have to do a thing to cause these adjustments--all done through the chip in the device, which was programmed with a computer at the doctor's office. Installation of these feels like I just took the mufflers off my ears.
Next week is test week. I've got extensive lab tests, bone marrow biopsy and few others to undergo as part of the vaccine trial I completed. They are allowing me to have these done in Denver. I'll also be talking with Rifkin about the next treatment since the revlimid has hammered my blood counts and isn't consistently holding down my myeloma. My M protein has stayed relatively stable, around 2.7, but the IGGs have jumped from 2800 to 4800 to 3800. The bone marrow biopsy will hopefully provide a better gauge based on the degree of plasma cells detected. Regardless, we'll have to find a different drug(s) to bring the myeloma back in submission. I'm not sure what Rifkin has in mind and I haven't even arrived at my own opinion on the matter. He'll probably go into shock when he hears I don't have an opinion.
Although spring is here, it's still a bit cold for me. I'm waiting for temps consistently in the 70s before I get into a regular bicycling routine. What a wuss I've become. And to think I used to winter camp in Minnesota at minus 30 degree temperatures.
March 23rd was the 6th anniversary of my MM diagnosis. Unbelievable. This has been such an extraordinary journey that I can hardly remember what my life was like before cancer. "But that was in another country, and besides the wench is dead." (from "The Jews of Malta" by Christopher Marlowe). March 24 was brother Mike's birthday--let's just say he's not eligible for Social Security but it's not far away. And March 26 marks the 34th year since Susan and I met on our 2000 mile blind date. Lots to celebrate.
Best to all,

Glad you can hear now... And don't feel like a wimp about riding in the cold... I don't like it either!

A few years ago John Sadwith persuaded me to go get hearing aids because our staff meetings were becoming so difficult for me. And of course John, ever the jokester, would pretend like he was talking to me without actually having any sound coming out of his mouth! I went and spent a fortune on the hearing aids and it changed my life forever. They are incredible little gadgets but always remember to put them in a safe place and take them off if you are on a roller coaster, ferry on the bay, or in a convertible automobile. And.....when you are on the bike make sure that they are on good after you put your helmet on otherwise you will be retracing your tire tracks. I tell you this from experience!

John Sadwith can move his mouth without making a sound? Amazing. I never thought that would be possible. Yeh, I already learned that wearing hearing aids when its winding is not pleasant. And as for biking, I've chosen not to wear them, hoping that I will at least still be able to hear a car honking at me.

#CrushYourTBR is already finished, but here is my TBR for Read Your Shelf A Thon. The idea for this is that you pick a place on your shelf and continue in that row. I am starting on my scifi/dystopia/post-apocalyptic shelf. I have already started and finished The One. I am currently reading In The Afterlight.
What are you currently reading? Have you read any of these books? Also, how do you organize your shelves? I go by genre and I love it.

Of course as I was browsing the site for dresses and skirts I had to stop over and look at the shoes. When I spotted these ENGULF Burnished Leather Platform Sandals honey it was over, to my cart they went. These sandals are so my style and the pop of color is perfect to brighten up any look, I had to have them and immediately starting picturing all the outfits I could wear them with.
Third Love Luxury LingerieFashion
Finally after being OVER bras that were not comfortable, I went and had a bra fitting. I have been fitted by a professional for bras before but, this time, the associate got more up close and personal. Nothing inappropriate, but I was not used to a stranger adjusting the girls so much. Needless to say not only was I wearing the wrong size, I was way off. My jaw nearly hit the floor when the fitter told me my size was 36C, I had been buying 34B's for so many years. If shopping for a bra is something you would prefer to do online in the comfort and privacy of your own home ThirdLove, an online lingerie boutique just might be what you have been wishing for.

Banish Panty Lines; Go CommandoFashion
Thank you to Cottonelle for sponsoring today's post and inspiring me to #GoCommando!
There are so many factors that go into choosing an outfit for a special occasion. Once the dress, shoes and accessories are picked you can't forget the undergarments. The wrong undergarments can easily ruin the look. Let's be real visible panty lines are not cute. I know some of you might be saying well duh that is when you wear a thong or a slip, do people under 80 even wear slips anymore? Sometimes a dress is so form fitting even a thong will have a line.
Earlier this year I mentioned doing some beauty dares, well I'm adding a fashion dare to the mix by going commando. I have a few formal events coming up this year and I have already been looking online for dresses. I see already I have some work to do since everything I like is a bit form fitting, and that also means I will have to step out of the comfort zone and go commando.
Did you catch the Oscars last week? I love watching the stars on the red carpet and admiring all the beautiful dresses. I have no doubt with some of those figure hugging dresses more than one lady was confidently going commando.

The New Nationality Act came into force on 1 June 2003. The Government decided on 15 May to propose that the President of the Republic approve the new Nationality Bill. The most important change will be that dual (multiple) citizenship will become acceptable. Finnish citizens will no longer lose their Finnish citizenship when they assume another citizenship. Similarly, foreign citizens who are granted Finnish citizenship will not need to give up their present citizenship.
Dual nationality can only be acquired in accordance with the laws of both Finland and the state in question
The laws in both Finland and the other state in question must permit dual (multiple) nationality before the acquisition of a second (additional) nationality. Finnish nationals may retain their Finnish nationality if the state whose nationality they apply for permits that. In the same way, foreign nationals who are granted Finnish nationality may retain their present nationality if that state allows it.
In order not to lose your nationality unintentionally, when applying for a new nationality you should find out in advance if the state concerned permits multiple nationality.
Applications for Finnish citizenship must be made by using a form for that purpose. Furthermore, applications must be submitted in person to the District Police within whose area of jurisdiction the applicant's home municipality is located.

Baseball Dispute Could Delay Vikings' Stadium
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota Vikings officials and public authorities are at odds over how to squeeze a baseball field into a stadium designed primarily for football.
The impasse threatens to delay a project already facing tight deadlines. It also appears to be an early test of just how accommodating the Vikings will prove to be.
The Gophers and other college and prep baseball teams hope to play early-season games in the shelter of the new stadium.
But the Vikings hope to put seats as close to the field as possible as they wedge a baseball diamond into a gridiron rectangle.
Baseball coaches say the biggest problem is the plan puts the right field foul line and power alley about 20 feet too close to home plate.

I mulled over what to post too long and Rapha has already announced their choices for best postings from the Festive 500. (Though to be honest, their interim update post had a better texture to it.) I have well and truly missed the boat. But this is something I want to write, so here it is.
Winter training for the road rider can be as much a psychological challenge as a physical one. Rousting yourself to get out the door and into the cold becomes a barrier built up one excuse and one hesitation at a time. Too cold, too dark, too windy, too lonely, too boring. Except it's not, and it's never as hard as one imagines once you actually get dressed and swing a leg over the saddle.
So the challenge tossed out by the folks at Rapha — 500 km in the last eight days of the year — was a welcome excuse of a different sort. A good reason to end the post-cyclocross layoff and head into a heavier winter base than I've done in my last few seasons. A good reason to kickstart the winter and fall in love with neoprene again.
I fell woefully short of 500km. A day lost in the car either way en route to Christmas at grandma's and the blizzard that set in moments after I rolled up the driveway one day just as snow started to stick guaranteed that I wouldn't make up for my slow start. In the end, that didn't matter. The Festive 500 worked. I got a rolling start on the season, leading to my best January training totals in years. Better, I got a reminder that it's fun to ride. Putting in hours in the saddle on quiet winter roads is a joy to be treasured, not a penance to be endured.
Chapeau, Rapha. I still can't afford your clothes but I am in your debt for this one.

Oscar de la Renta is fighting back against rumors that he is ill and may give up the reins of his company. Fashion insiders were abuzz about de la Renta's failing health during New York Fashion Week last month, after the designer, 78, recovered from hip-replacement surgery. Though he was well enough to walk the stage at the end of his show, insiders say that since then, "Oscar is in the office taking meetings, but is weaker and takes naps to rest. There's speculation that staff and designers have recently been hired to prepare for a possible future with Oscar taking a lesser role." But a spokesman for de la Renta, a favorite of Sarah Jessica Parker and Demi Moore, said his health is solid and he has no plans to retire. "Oscar happily is enjoying excellent health. He's putting in a full work day every day. Any new hires have nothing to do with the design process, and there is no plan whatsoever to even think of replacing him as the creative head."

Khartoum, Sudan (PANA) - The United Nations-African Union Peacekeeping Mission in Darfur (UNAMD) has handed over 11 team sites across Sudan's Darfur region to the government of Sudan.
UNAMID spokesperson Ashraf Eissa told a press conference in Khartoum on Sunday that the move was made in compliance with UN Security Council Resolution 2363 which calls for restructuring of UNAMID in two six-month phases.
Also the Security Council decided that at the end of Phase One of the drawdown, the authorised numbers of troops and police would be 11,395 and 2,888, respectively. At the end of Phase Two, there would be 8,735 troops and 2,500 police. UNAMID currently has an authorised ceiling of 15,845 troops and 3,403 police.
Eissa explained that implementation of this resolution was based on a two-prong approach combining peacekeeping and stabilization efforts, concentrating the peacekeeping tasks around Jebel Marra area while the rest of Darfur would benefit from the stabilization efforts with the Mission working closely with humanitarian and development partners.
He added that, as part of the reconfiguration, they were presently engaged in Phase One of reducing the uniformed personnel which would be completed by January 2018.
Phase Two starts in January 2018 and lasts until June 2018.
He said that the closure of the team was initially scheduled to be completed by the end of October but the Mission managed to do so ahead of schedule.
The Mission spokesman said that, in line with the general UN practices in post-conflict regions, the Mission recommends to the government of Sudan to transform the team sites handed over to it into facilities that contribute to the overall development of local communities and take into account the wishes of the local population, whenever possible.

WASHINGTON, D.C.--An international agreement on climate change has to be flexible and able to evolve to be successful, an Obama administration official said Aug. 2.
A flexible approach, such as allowing countries to develop their own legally binding targets, will be more successful than a stringent agreement to meet the global goal of limiting the rise in average temperature to less than 2 degrees centigrade above preindustrial levels, said Todd Stern, the State Department's special envoy for climate change, according to prepared remarks.
Stern spoke at Dartmouth College as part of its Leading Voices in U.S. Foreign Policy lecture series.
Such an agreement may not guarantee meeting the 2 degree goal, but insisting on an agreement that would guarantee the 2 degree limit will only lead to deadlock, he said.
"It is more important to start now with a regime that can get us going in the right direction and that is built in a way maximally conducive to raising ambition, spurring innovation, and building political will," Stern said.
Countries at the U.N. climate summit in Durban, South Africa, in December agreed to develop a global emissions reduction agreement by the end of 2015, which would be effective in 2020 (35 INER 45, 1/4/12).
In a flexible agreement, countries could submit their own targets, and the public could provide comment after six-months to encourage countries to set more ambitious goals, Stern said.
The likelihood of all countries agreeing to a "highly prescriptive" climate agreement is low because countries will not agree to actions that could be seen to hinder growth and development, Stern said.
"The keys to making headway in this early conceptual phase of the new agreement is to be open to new ideas that can work in the real world and to keep our eyes on the prize of reducing emissions rather than insisting on old orthodoxies," Stern said.
The agreement also has to be flexible enough to provide for future modifications, he said. Technological advancements may allow countries to make more aggressive emissions reductions commitments in the mid-2020s than in 2015, he said. Additionally, developing countries may advance to become top world economies by 2025, which would change the expectations of their action on climate change.
The world also needs to take action outside the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change and create informal groupings of countries to address climate change, Stern said.
Coalitions like this already exist, he said, citing a 2009 agreement of Group of 20 nations to phase out fossil fuel subsidies and a coalition launched by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in February to reduce short-lived climate pollutants such as methane, black carbon, and hydrofluorocarbons. More action along these lines is needed, Stern said.
Stern also urged greater national action to lower emissions, including the transformation of the U.S. energy sector to cleaner energy. Greater government investment in research and development of clean energy technologies may end up being the most important action the government takes because containing climate change likely depends on adopting technological advancements, Stern said.
He also called for national legislation, saying there is no substitute for legislation in spurring action on the level needed to transform the U.S. economy. He cited the need to make a case to Congress and the public about the benefits of moving to a clean energy economy, including a global competitive edge, cleaner air, and greater public health protections. He asked for greater vocal support of leaders in business and the military.
"Exactly what that response [to climate change] should be is a fair subject for debate, but if we can at least establish the priority of developing such a response, we'll have taken an important step forward," Stern said.

Joseph Yobo visits motherless babies home
Nigerian football captain , Joseph Yobo visited the children at Hearts of Gold Children's hospice in Surulere to make donations and spend some time with the children. Joseph donated food stuff, a generating set, and more as part of giving back to the society through his charity organization, on behalf of his wife and son. Joseph said; "I was touched with the condition of the kids. It is sad to know that some of them will still die. I am happy to have put a smile on their faces and give them hope to survive. I could have been like any of them but for God's mery." Joseph Yobo also visited House of Mercy in Ebute Meta, Yaba, which houses mainly 'almajiris' (the Arabic word for immigrants) and Fair Life Africa Foundation, Lekki.
We love people who take time out to give back. God bless the Yobo's

Welcome to the Florida College of Missionary Aviation
The College started as a summer-camp dream along the sparkling sands of Lake Rosa. For six years, camp director and commercial airline pilot Tim Huggins trained groups of high schoolers with a passion for missionary aviation work. His camps gave young, eager participants real-time flight experience, technical instruction and spiritual guidance in a no-frills environment — like what they would encounter on the mission field. As teen after teen felt the calling of God to the mission field to take on a pilot's role, Huggins realized they were faced with very real, practical dilemmas. Most flight programs are too expensive for interested students to afford, forcing them into either insurmountable debt or a different career path.
But the stakes are too high to deny training to those who feel the calling. Missionary pilots are important because they are often essential in transporting people and supplies and bringing hope in impoverished countries. When people see the aircraft arriving, they know help is on the way.
Huggins saw the need for an affordable higher-education institution to train service-ready, missionary-minded pilots. And so the College of Missionary Aviation was born."
Investors, donors and an engaged board of directors got the college off the ground with academic direction, financial backing, runway and hangar space, donated airplanes and student-ready housing.
Rotations of the program begin in January and July. After a two-year period of eight quarters, a student will graduate with a degree in missions with a concentration in mission aviation.
Exceptional Professors
A team of professional aviation instructors offer a range of flight training and faith-focused motivational skills. College president Tim Huggins, a Desert Storm-era Apache helicopter pilot, lends his expertise in the classroom and in the sky. Former State Representative Charles Van Zant Sr. brings valuable perspective to the classroom. Prior to being to the Florida House of Representatives Dr. Van Zant was a pastor, missionary, and architect. Dr. Bert Ayers is former missionary to Albania from 1993-1997, and Gordon Swenson served as a missionary for 27 years in Papua New Guinea. The college is blessed to have Dr. Ayers and Rev. Swenson teaching our future missionary aviators.

It's nice to find quality products at the drugstore that follow through with their promises and don't cost an arm and a leg. Burt's Bees is one of those brands. I'm not a real "natural nancy", but it is also very nice to read a label and be able to recognize everything on the ingredients list. Burt's bees graciously provided the following products for review.
Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion – $5 for 2.5oz, $8 for 6 oz.
• Very creamy and moisturizing, but not greasy.
• Absorbs quickly.
• Scent is not too intense, smells like coconut. Very pleasant.
• My husband complimented how soft my hands were after using it.
Final Consensus = I love it. Totally worth it.
Nourishing Lip Balm with Mango Butter – $3
• Very moisturizing, not waxy. Made with lots of natural oils, no petroleum products (something I'm trying to break my addiction to)
• Clear in color, nice over a lip stain.
• Scent again is not intense, but pleasant. Smells like mangos.
• Simple packaging
Final Consensus = I love it. This is great for dry winter lips.
Naturally Fresh Solid Perfume -$10
• It's a balm you apply with your fingers
• Smells like lemons, always a plus in my book.
• Scent doesn't last more than a half an hour
Final Consensus = Smells good, but not worth it, unless you like re-applying every 30 minutes.

When the holidays roll around, festive home decor and tasty holiday treats take center stage. Your friendly feline or four-legged friend doesn't have to miss out on the holiday cheer, though. Celebrate the festivities with pet costumes and holiday dresses that include man's best friend in the holiday spirit at your house.
If your pup is willing to don the attire, why not go all out with a Santa hat and full beard? Spoil your pooch for playing along. "The key to getting your pet to enjoy the experience of dressing up is having patience -- and treats," says Susan Hartzler, a Los Angeles-based dog expert. "It's easy to train a dog to wear anything with praise and rewards."
"Many lucky fur [or feathered] babies are spoiled during the holiday season, and rightfully so," says Hartzler. "They offer humans unconditional love and much, much more." Show your love for your furry friend this season by making her the centerpiece of the celebration. A tree-lined hat and scarf will surely put her in the spotlight.
If your feline is feeling festive, start with some simple head gear for the holidays. "Getting cats to wear anything is really difficult. They need to experience the item first," Hartzler said. "Let them play with it before you even attempt to put it on them, and then praise and rewards will make them a super star."
Although your pooch may not always be on his best behavior, show off his cheery side with a naughty or nice hat and scarf. Piece together felt and bells for the scarf and decorate a Santa hat to bring out his nice side. Couple with a naughty hat for another pet to make the perfect pair.
Even active hamsters need to show off their holiday spirit. Make a mini hat for this furry friend and a green or red turnstile to get him involved in the festivities. Decorate his cage, too, so he can join in the celebration.
Put a new spin on traditional reindeer ears by adding a fuzzy red scarf for your puppy. If Fido is resistant to the decor, Hartzler recommends easing her into the costume with gradual treats. "Just leave the hat on for a few seconds and say 'Good Hat.' Then, add more time and more treats until your pet is comfortable."
Keep your pet warm during the holidays with crocheted costumes that will bring out his holiday spirit. From red to green striped hats to scarves with snowballs, the attire may even keep him calm, said Rachel Friedman, service dog trainer. "The type that fit more snuggly on the body can actually be calming. The ones that are ill-fitting or hustled too fast onto the more sensitive dogs may cause anything from fussiness to downright duress."
If you're searching for the perfect personalized holiday card, a cardboard snowman cutout for your pooch may fill the bill. Add a white backdrop with glittery snowflakes to set the scene and snap the picture. Friends and family will not be able to resist the charm of your festive friend.
Pets sometimes resist this costume, so start small with a red-and-white striped candy cane hat. With this on, she will be the center of attention and therefore one happy pooch during holiday celebrations, sporting a smile and festive fanfare.
Your holiday decor may include stockings on the stairs or hung on the chimney with care, but don't forget the small furry friends in your home. Craft a small red-and-white stocking for gerbils or hamsters so that their homestead can look just as festive as yours.

Sam Rainsy
T he Youth Movement of the Funcinpec party declared its support for some 20,000 university deans, professors and students from around the country who they say plan to protest the return of opposition leader Sam Rainsy, according to a statement issued on October 6.
"Obviously, Sam Rainsy supporters inside and outside the country have generated chaos, defamation, subversion, dishonor, and social instability," the statement said. "This has caused foreigners to look down on the once-prosperous Khmer culture."
The faxed press release was unsigned but contained a handwritten note from Thieng Vandarong, deputy general director at the Ministry of Information, inviting local and international media to report on the statement.
The comments came a day after the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) told local media they had asked the Phnom Penh municipality for permission to hold a 10,000-strong welcome home for their leader.
SRP spokesman Ung Bun-Ang confirmed that Rainsy will return from self-imposed exile, but said a date has not been set.
In a speech delivered in Kampong Speu on September 23, Prime Minister Hun Sen said that he would not intervene to stop teachers from demonstrating against Sam Rainsy, though he requested that all such protests remain non-violent.
Since that time, anti-Rainsy banners have appeared in educational institutions across Phnom Penh, including the National University.
Seng Phally, president of the Cambodian Higher Education Association (CHEA) would not give details about future protests against the opposition.
Phally said only that professors and students across the country are ready to participate in demonstrations upon Rainsy's return to Cambodia.
"We have already been granted permission from the authorities," he said.
The Phnom Penh Municipality and the Ministry of Interior have repeatedly denied past requests from the opposition to hold demonstrations.
On September 27, a small protest against Hun Sen by the Student Movement for Democracy was quickly quashed by police, with one demonstrator punched in the face and five students temporarily detained.
While the anti-SRP protests have been endorsed by the government, they have received muted support from students.
On October 6, a group of students at the National University of Management (NUM) denied knowing anything about the anti-Rainsy banners hung outside their school
"We don't know who did it, and we are not interested in what the banners say," said one student on the condition of anonymity. "I think that the Cambodian people learned a lesson from the demonstrations after the national elections in 1998."
Several of the NUM student said they will not participate in any demonstrations against Rainsy.
At Norton University, students told the Post that they shy away from demonstrations because they know their rights of expression won't be protected under Cambodian law.
Rong Chhun, president of Cambodia Independent Teachers Association (CITA) said that the government's decision to permit teachers to organize political demonstrations stands in violation of the Co-Statute of Civil Servants.
He said that, according to Article 37 of the statute, civil servants must remain neutral in the workplace, and refrain from using their position or state resources or for political activities. These include campaigns on behalf of candidates, as well as opposition activities.
"I think that what those professors and students are doing is just to please the ruling CPP in order to gain personal benefit, rather than the benefit for all," said Chhun. "Why don't they protest against the social issues such as corruption, land-grabbing, increasing civil servants salary, border issues and call for decreasing the price of gasoline?"
"If they are a professional teachers they must not use schools as political tools to please the politicians," he said.
Chhun estimated that 95 percent of the teachers and students across the country would not participate in demonstration, even if they were pressured to. He also said that he would not stage a counter-demonstration due to concerns about political violence.

Dental Services Description: Trained in advanced preventive, restorative, and aesthetic dentistry, Dr. White's practice in Nashville offers a complete array of services, from the purely cosmetic to the critically restorative.

His expertise in aesthetic enhancement, restorative care, neuromuscular dentistry and laser treatment translates into comprehensive, long lasting and natural-looking solutions for his patients.
His kind of expertise is very unique. It's an approach that looks at other causes for neuromuscular pain and prevention of pain before focusing all the attention on teeth. Neuromuscular dentistry isn't brand new, but the diagnostic technology has finally caught up with treatment.

Openning my Big Mouth
February 8, 2008
There will still be a site update… There will be updating… but I've run into a very unfortunate problem.
WordPress won't let me edit the HTML, just the style sheet…. so let me put that in lam-ens terms…. I can't build my own house, I can only paint one that already exists.
This isn't a completely horrible fate, nothing I can't recover from, just not what I was hoping for. That having been said I really have no desire to remove myself from WordPress, I don't think I have any earthly desire to go back to having to reference images from photodump. I want to manage it all from one place like a real boy.
Apparently I can get the thing hosted on another server which will allow me to change the HTML, but that's extra money I don't frankly want to spend right now. Maybe down the road, but not right now. That having been said, if this lady is serious about buying my van then I will have no reservations about buying a small server space. So… who knows.
Okay…. now for the real thing.
Things are going fairly well. My Girlfriend and I are learning things about eachother as evidenced by this somewhat rocky week this week, but that satisfies me. If everything was going well, I'd be relatively nervouse. See that's the thing about relationships people don't understand; If everything is working out for you two, and you're not entering into any conflicts, you are going to be royally screwed when you do.
I learned how to bake the peanut butter chocolate awesomeness from my Girlfriend's mom. It is made entirely out of awesome sauce.
I still haven't gotten around to actually starting to write for Bear. Well that's not true, I've started, but I keep losing my drafts as I've begun writing them by hand. Doing this prevents many standard crap ass errors and gives me a chance to make sure everything flows instead of just letting my mind wander… of course as a down side I keep losing the damn paper. I'm pretty excited though, I've got plenty of ideas. I've never wrote a single story from two different time frames (Story 1 = x – 7 ; Story 2 = x + 7) so this will be a huge challenge in continuity which is exactly what I need. I fail epically at continuity… epic fail.
Did I mention that my Son is starting grade school?

OLYMPIC SPOTLIGHT: Tyson Gay
As he crossed the line with the lead in the 100-meter final at the 2008 Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore, Tyson Gay looked up and saw a time of 9.68 seconds light up the scoreboards around Hayward Field. The time was the fastest ever, but a 9.1 mph tailwind nullified the performance's chances of shattering the world record (9.72).
Gay, a household name among sporting enthusiast around the globe, will compete in the 100 meters and as a member of the U.S. 4×100-meter relay at the Olympic Games in Beijing.
During his two-year career at Arkansas, Gay was a two-time NCAA Champion and seven-time All-American. He also managed to collect five SEC titles and was named All-SEC six times.
His post-collegiate career kicked off late in 2005, as he finished fourth as a part of an American 1-2-3-4 sweet in the 200 meters at the 2005 World Championships.
Gay continued to improve throughout the 2006 season, running times of 9.84 at 100 meters and 19.68 at 200 meters. By the end of 2006, Gay was ranked second in the world at both 100 and 200 meters by the IAAF and was fourth all-time in both events.
In 2007, Gay swept the two sprint events at the USA Track and Field Championships in Indianapolis, Ind. One month later at the IAAF World Championships in Osaska, Japan, Gay defeated world record-holder Asafa Powell at 100 meters to become the new world champion. Four days later he ran a championship record19.76 at 200 meters to win that event as well.
He was named IAAF Male Athlete of the year for 2007 and was USOC Sportsman of the Year.
Gay is set to compete in the preliminary rounds of the 100 meters in Beijing Friday, Aug 15 and the 4×100-meter relay Thursday, Aug. 21. For complete results and details of the 2008 Olympic games in Beijing, visit http://www.iaaf.org/OLY08/index.html. For more information on the Razorbacks in Beijing, visit ArkansasRazorbacks.com.
Career Highlights: A two-time NCAA Champion (2004 outdoor 100 meters, 2005 4×100-meter relay); seven-time All-American; five-time SEC champion and six-time All-SEC performer.

Google Chrome for the Mac finally rolled out as a public beta on Tuesday, giving the Mac OS X crowd an official taste of what the Internet search company has in store for the Web browsing world.
The Webkit-based browser includes a tabbed interface that can isolate problem Web pages and potentially prevent application crashes, a unified URL and search field called Omnibox, can display commonly visited Web sites in new browser tabs, and more.
"3,804 lines of Mac-specific code and 29 developer builds later, we're excited to finally release Google Chrome for Mac in beta. We took a hefty dose of goodness from the Windows version to build a fast, polished browser for Mac," the company said on its Google Mac Blog.
The public beta of Google Chrome for the Mac requires Mac OS X 10.5 or higher and is available as a free download at the Google Web site.

Lately in Brief
In case you haven't noticed, I've updated my blog! Since I will be moving my business to its very own website soon, I decided I wanted to make my presence on this blog a lot more personal. Whilst my pseudonym is still very much a part of me, I wanted to invite you to get to know me on a deeper level when you visit this corner of the world. My world, and the perspective with which I see it.
On a different note, the last couple of weeks I have had so many blog post ideas rolling around in my mind, and yet I have not made the time to sit down and put the words to paper. I've been wanting to blog again for the longest time, and now that I sit down to write, I find I don't have a lot to say. But you haven't come here to listen to me ramble on about nothing at all, and since I would hate to waste your precious time, I thought I might just update you all on a few things I've been up to in my life.
Firstly, I have been working with a ministry called WalkTheSame, making artwork for them once a week. I've really enjoyed being a part of a talented team of artists and being inspired by art that is better than my own. This has led to my latest fascinating with handlettering and modern calligraphy. I've been slowly growing my collection of art supplies, and I have rearranged my walls around my desk to hang varied pieces of art to pretty up my work space. It's a craft I am thoroughly enjoying learning about, especially through the handlettering community on Instagram I am a part of.
There are a couple of weddings coming up in and around my family which I am quite excited about, and it has been another thing to take up time in planning and helping out. Everything is beginning to come together, and I'm looking forward to seeing how all the details finally culminate on the day. It's going to be a blessing to be a part of.
I've been thoroughly enjoying my correspondence Bible college studies through Charis Bible college. I will spare you my fangirling, because I could rave about this college and all my amazing teachers all day. I love how even though I'm doing it in my own time (aka, incredibly SLOW) that God has aligned so many of the lessons to speak right into the situations and struggles I am currently facing. I am learning so much, and I look forward to see where God will use it all in my life.
I am not doing much with my songwriting/singing or instruments lately, except for jamming with my sister in the garage. However I am listening to a lot of music and learning a little about the Christian music industry and how it functions through the experience of different artists. Though I'm not sure how God wants to use my gifting in this area, I am fascinated by the songwriting process and it permeates the way I listen to music now. Who knows what may happen? Time will tell.
I find my life at the moment goes in ups and downs. One minute I can completely content with life, and happy with the day to day. Other times I stare out the window and wonder if this is all there is; plagued with thoughts of the future, wondering if my life will ever change. Whilst things change in increments, sometimes you tire of rowing the boat, and you want to get out and walk, even if the waves may knock you over. Anything for a change. I'm learning to understand however that sitting in the boat does not mean idleness, and that rocking it from time to time is not wrong; regardless of who may tell you sit down and stay still. It's a difficult place; waiting for something you don't know, but God is still in control - still leading, and speaking, and guiding. He is faithful.
Anyhow. Thankyou for reading my aimless thoughts! I hope to be back with something more substantial shortly. I do so appreciate the time you take out of your busy day to stop by and read my words. It means a lot to me.

Hate it or love it?!?
Super producer/writer/singer Ester Dean is teaming up with Nicki Minaj again after she creating her hit "Super Bass" track. On the Caribbean laced "Gimmie Money," the twosome is letting fellas know they can provide for themselves, so they'd rather have their time than their money.

Note if your refrigeration system is larger than 6 cu ft capacity, you'll get better functionality from water cooling. RTF refrigerators and freezers are offered in a variety of sizes as well as designs, each built to exactly the same exacting standards along with quality.
Modern galley refrigeration went far beyond straightforward holding-plate refrigeration systems, and now competes with the readily installed evaporative refrigeration systems. In case your fire is life in the water, youwill need to include U Line ice making, refrigeration and wine preservation products in your boating experience.
RTF refrigerators and deep freezers are engineered to the highest military specifications. We fell into the marine refrigeration marketplace when we made a decision to drop the 20-year old Norcold on our 42′ trawler.
David Lehmann of Sea Freeze will build water cooled refrigerators, but would not leave the water pump running into a boat for long intervals, since they may be subject to wear, the occasional and outflows obstructed raw water consumption.
In case you chance to take a lot of bait not to stress, by leaving this in the cooler on ice you are able to refreeze it when you get home and use the remainder in your next fishing excursion. The salt you used when packaging it out will keep the lure in good shape even though you thawed it out some. One or two times a year, I moved it to my car when I went on long excursion, using it as a refrigerator or dock boxes new and used as needed.
A close evaluation of your boat's battery size and recharge ability is in order when installing a 12vDC refrigeration system. Contrary to popular belief, troubleshooting a boat's refrigeration can be tackled without gauges. It is this "baseline" of evaluations gauges refer back to when attempting to solve a refrigeration dilemma.
In case the lure was properly salted before freezing, it'll never actually freeze solid because there isn't much water left in it. I got a affordable freezer off craigslist for 75 dollars and keep my lure in it. Direct from the freezer you are able to reach in and catch a single bait since they will not freeze together. I bottom fish , therefore I buy my lure by the level,comes to about 1/2 cost this manner. During the season, the freezer allows the required lure to be bought by me at my convenience, which can be an enormous plus – you won't ever need to live without one, once you've got a bait freezer – I have had one for nearly 30 years.
For going from marina to marina, as well as on an occasional long cruise, it's better with an inverter as well as a standard (refrigeration) system," he said. There should be a patch for feeling to return to the freezer side.
I wonder just how a lot of the fish my charter customers took home that actually were used for food, or thrown from freezer burn. When these trays of bait are gone in today's featured picture this sale will end.
The exact same goes for the bluegill sides/guts , I throw everything into one jar and keep it in the freezer for a while. Exactly the same is true for the bluegill sides/intestines , I throw everything into one jar and keep that in the freezer for a short time.
With coast electricity your battery bank should be kept at full capacity even with the 12 volt refrigeration on, and you may just use up amps without replacement while from the pier. The question becomes do you've got sufficient battery ability to keep the refrigeration unit powered while away form coastline power.
I have nothing to add except the obvious; while itis an excellent idea to keep the lure from food, refrigeration just works with warm atmosphere. Here we give you some tips to get started for a few the most popular means of striper fishing.
I am new here and was just needing some thoughts on what things to use to make my deep freezer a bait tank and pics could be excellent the closest bait store is 20 mins from the house so i desire one on hand. I live in Florida so it's extremely vital that you have insulated bait tanks.
The freezer's digital thermostat can be reset to permit the unit to operate as either a refrigerator or a freezer. They are particularly useful on RV, boating excursions, recreational storage and as well as for isolated locations for example camping trips and cabins.
You want to leave space in the bait jug allowing water to combine within the cup and slowly discharge the scent trail. This configuration enables a controlled release of your transmission bait and is not going to spill in your boat before deployment!
For the entry level we must keep the price as low as you can, so myself am thinking of an ice box as an alternative to a refrigerator as well as a salt ice box instead of a freezer. There must be a patch for feeling to come back to the freezer side.
I found the organization to the world wide web and learned that it is a leader in refrigeration and motor controls. It'll cool a refrigerator as high as 12 cubic feet of space, or a freezer of about five cubic feet. Next to a committed deep freezer, a refrigerator is the most starving energy hog on a boat.

It's impossible to express to you how excited I am to get my feet back on that Uganda soil that rocked my world 2 years ago! My heart is overwhelmed with excitement and anticipation because I know, once again, the Lord has a plan for every-single-one-of-us on this trip. I'm ready to have my life flipped upside-down and inside-out again all for His glorious Kingdom when it comes to HIS precious children!
We have an awesome team of 16 orphan-loving-people on this trip. We will be leaving at the end of June and will be in Uganda for 2 weeks. What are we doing? We will be traveling to baby homes to hold and feed the innocent infants. Going to several different orphanages to do projects and VBS's with the young children. We will be doing a feeding program for boys in the slum. We will be ministering to the women of violent crimes, providing counseling services for pregnant and displaced women. We will be providing medical care for sick and injured babies, children, men and women in several different villages. The list goes on and on.... Our trip is PACKED!
With all that being said, as you know, all these things cost money! Would you gather with me in prayer as I am seeking funds and donations to help with all these projects! Did you know that it cost less than a dollar a day to feed an orphan? There will be certain days and nights where we hope to feed anywhere from 300-500 children in one location. I am trusting the Lord for every dollar needed to make sure all these projects can be fulfilled and every mouth can be fed.
For me, the MOST important part of traveling to Uganda is to hold a precious child and tell them that they are loved. Tell them that Jesus loves them. Sing over them and pray with them. Tell them that He cares for them. That he died for them so that they may live. Many times this message is hard to receive when their belly's are empty and starving. Not only is my heart to feed them the Truth about Jesus but to also provide a warm meal for them, even if it's the only meal they will eat that week.
Would you gather with me in prayer as we seek to fulfill all necessary financial needs for this trip? If you would feel led to contribute and donate, your tax-deductible gift through Bread For Life Ministries will help share the gospel of Truth and fill the empty bellies of the most beautiful children on planet earth.
37 days my friends to raise as much money as possible. Are you with me? Will you join me in this?
There are no limits to what your support can accomplish! Together we can change the life of one child, over and over and over again!
Thank you isn't even enough, but THANK YOU in advance. Your support means the world to me!
