Aussie singer John Paul Young may have performed at Variety's 40th anniversary party on Saturday but it was Tony Abbott who got the rockstar treatment.
Taking time out from politics, Mr Abbott was at Sydney's Taronga Zoo for the charity event along with about 1200 sick kids and their families.
The celebrations included a jumping castle, people dressed up as angels, M&Ms and Despicable Me characters, as well as a performance from the ageing pop star known affectionately as JPY.
However, Mr Abbott turned out to be the main attraction when he dropped by for a surprise visit.
Addressing the crowd, he said while Taronga zoo was a Sydney gem, those present were the "real gems".
"Because either as parents or as children or as friends and supporters of Variety you are making our country a better and a happier place," said the prime minister, before helping to cut a birthday cake with two children in wheelchairs.
"Over 40 years now Variety has been doing the right thing by children who need a hand at the most difficult time of their lives."
After the brief speech, Mr Abbott was mobbed by fans and spent about 20 minutes shaking hands, chatting and taking photos with people.
Rachael Albert, 42, who was at the event with her seven-year-old son Mitchell, said it was great to have the PM at the event.
"Mitchell got asked to cut the cake with him but he's a little bit too shy to get up on stage," Ms Albert told AAP.
She hoped the prime minister's appearance helped boost the profile of Variety, which assisted her to convert her car so it could accommodate Mitchell, who has muscular dystrophy.
"It's great that he's's come here because it means lots of publicity," she added.
Each year Variety raises about $10 million and helps about 100,000 children.

I think I don't need to explain any reason to have this item. Even everyone may not have any reason on wearing them. Jeans are appropriate for casual use and comfortable enough for a lot of activities teenagers have. And oh, roll up your pants once while wearing flats and twice for boots.
I found striped tops have a similar function with solid tops. You'll look good with only pairing it with a pair of jeans or a solid skirt. And you'll look cool with an addition of outerwear. And I think striped tops are really really cool for outerwear.
Teenagers must have an active life and a lot of activities. What do you need? Some comfort pairs of shoes! Choose your best sneakers and slip-ons!
Last but not least, which will be so needed for a young cool active famous teenagers. Yeah! That's leather jacket! You might get an addition feel of rock 'n roll. But it's good with dresses too.
So, what're you waiting for? Complete your wardrobe, dear Teenagers!

But as Cosby was leaving the Montgomery County Courthouse today following his first week of trial, his spokesman, Andrew Wyatt, told reporters Cosby's testimony is possible."We'll weigh all our options," Wyatt said.
Amazing how Drudge pulls from a local website because The New Cosby Show has become an under the radar story.
I have been writing about Cosby's situation and back in March wrote about being dumbfounded the case slipped off media radar. I do not think there will be a conviction of any kind.

Hi, this is Jessie. I'm here in the EatingWell Test Kitchen, and I'm going to show you two ways to cook one of the best fall vegetables: sweet potatoes. The first thing you need to know when you're at the store: this is what you want to look for. Smooth, taut, papery skins that should have tapered ends and no soft spots or bruises. Bring these guys home, and you can store them for literally months. Just make sure you put them in a cool, dark place like in your pantry or in a drawer; don't put them in the refrigerator. Now, when you're ready to cook them, take them out. Run them under cold running water and scrub them off. The first way I'm going to cook them today is pan-steaming. So I take my clean sweet potatoes and chop them into 1-inch chunks. Put those into a skillet, pour a little bit of broth in and add a little bit of honey and thyme. Put the top on and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, until they are almost tender. At that point, remove the lid and let that liquid cook down over high heat for about 2 more minutes and it's going to reduce and it's just going to glaze those sweet potatoes. It will be delicious. The second way—this is something that every cook should have in their arsenal—it's roasting sweet potatoes. This is a basic. So you take your sweet potatoes. You cut them in half lengthwise, then cut those into 1/2-inch wedges, spread them out on a baking sheet. Toss those with a little bit of olive oil and salt. Then you put them into a hot 500°F oven and you roast them for about 25 to 30 minutes, until they're tender. Turn them once about halfway through. That's it. You've just gotten two ways to cook sweet potatoes. And the good news is, these guys are loaded with beta carotene. That's going to help keep your eyes healthy. Plus they have more fiber than white potatoes. Now, final tip: make sure you eat those skins, because that's where a lot of the nutrients are.
Check with your doctor about the right diet for you.

I would say that image quality has improved significantly for me on PS4. Vintage Le Mans looks great and Monza is also noticeably improved, not much shimmering to the leaves on the trees. At least, to my eyes.
the "rain" and the puddles are the real problem of the game, the I.A. on some events it runs well on others like snails, the puddles on some cars have an effect like oil, all this is unreal and ruins the game, I'm very disappointed!
Update: I did a 2h race at the Le Mans classic track yesterday driving the Porsche 917LH and I did not have issues with the steering wheel. It seems the problem is isolated to the LMP1 2016 cars
I was on vacation and was only able to test 6.0 yesterday. I didn't play more than an hour in the past 3 mo. But I will definitely get back to it now. The most obvious improvement is the car handling and FFB -- feeling great on my t300 with a lot less violent reactions.. the reactions intensity feels more in par with the weight of the wheel. I had 3 awesome races online yesterday. I think although not as obvious as in a GTS the physics when hitting other cars is more forgiving which will have a very positive impact on online races. A lot less car being completely unbalanced after a slight touch.. pobably less frustration and hopefully more players online . I noticed also some changes in the colors and it feels like the sound quality is improved, less "compressed" I can hear the engines and the sound effects better. I'm pretty sure the AI has changed again on ps4 because I had to drop the difficulty at 60 in p5 and i'm back to 90-100 with this update... Also some other stuff I noticed.. I was braking consistently between all the cars tested.. and I didnt experence any transmission locking up on downshifts (auto clutch off) Thank you for the hard work. This update is fantastic!

Can any moderator or SMS team staff confirm if Logitech G29 FFB has been tweaked with this patch?
here, when selecting an indycar road version on a road circuit (monaco for example) for a custom race, the AI may have indycar version oval. This was already the case before the patch 6.00, I said but still no correction.
maybe it is not solvable?
Thank you
Played the pesky Ginetta Jr career race in Silverstone before the patch and replayed after. Can tell you that the huge lake on the back stretch is gone (thank you baby jebus) Haven't played any other tracks yet but that was a huge sigh of relief!
As a long term backer and fan and as someone who only races online in open pits I run myself almost ever night not being able to remove the unwanted/bad drivers has ruined the game and my enjoyment plz fix this A.S.A.P before I give up and unwrap that copy of gts sat on the side collecting dust.
We are not living in the olden days when it was safe to leave your front door unlocked ! omg think of doing that theses days ?

Aloe vera and shea butter are well known for skin care. But how about snail slime?
Cleopatra may have used snail mucus to moisten her earlobes. The species Sphincterochila boissieri is adapted to very dry conditions and is found in the deserts of Egypt.
The recent rediscovery of the benefits of snail slime dates from the 1980s, when Chilean farmers handling snails bound for the French market observed how soft and well moisturized the skin on their hands had become. They also observed that cuts and scars healed quickly.
Research has confirmed that snail slime is naturally rich in vitamins, proteins, and substances such as glycolic acid, a nitrogenous compound called allantoin, collagen, and elastin – all of which are widely used in cosmetics.
According to the Istituto Internazionale di Elicicoltura, based in Cherasco, Piedmont, Italy, chemical analysis has identified the many active elements in snail slime that allow tissue regeneration in wounds and around bruises. Pure snail slime possesses antioxidant proprieties that rejuvenate human skin, improving its tone and elasticity.
The ensuing increase in demand for slime has inevitably led to a boom for snail farmers. Over the last 20 years, snail breeding has taken off (but at a snail's pace, no doubt) and the number of farms has trebled.
In the past, salt or vinegar was thrown on snails, stimulating them to produce slime but killing them at the same time. Today, slime farmers spray the snails with ozone to relax and cleanse them of bacteria and mould. They are then coated with another natural spray that encourages them to produce slime.
Speaking of snails, the naturalist Sir David Attenborough has the unusual honour of having one named after him. Attenborougharion rubicundus, which is red and green, was discovered in 2016 in Tasmania. It inhabits only closed wet forests and is not found in dry forests or damp forests, making it extremely vulnerable to habitat loss through changed land usage and the impact of climate change.
Attenborougharion rubicundus is a protected species and cannot be used for slime production. But once an unknown genus, it has been named after a known genius, which hopefully will help it survive.

Hundreds of flathead chubs were collected in such pools in the Purgatoire and Arkansas rivers.

ANDREW FLINTOFF is backing England to learn quickly and bounce back from their opening Test mauling by Australia at the Gabba.
Having dominated the Test for the opening three days, Australia completed their victory after 90 minutes' play of the final day with the tourists slipping from 293-5 overnight to 370 all out to lose by 277 runs.
It gives Australia a huge advantage with the next Test starting at Adelaide on Friday and precious little time for England to close ranks and mount a fightback.
But captain Flintoff remains confident England's young side can rally after a dismal start to the series and mount a competitive challenge for the Ashes.
Flintoff said: "We're a young side, but we have been quick learners. The lads do learn and adapt quickly and between now and Adelaide we're going to have to.
"We're obviously disappointed we've gone 1-0 down, but there are some characters in that room and some really tough lads.
"As disappointed as we are we can't mope around and sit around thinking too much. We're going to take the positives out of this game going forward to Adelaide."
Nerves were blamed for England's depressing start to the series, but Flintoff believes they will be better for the experience by the time they walk out at the Adelaide Oval.
"Some of the lads are playing in their first Ashes Test and with the magnitude of the game, I'd have been disappointed if there weren't nerves in the dressing room," said Flintoff.
"It will be tough to come back from 1-0 down, we can't hide from that but there is a lot at stake. There is a big incentive and we just have to get on with it.
"We can't mope around, we can't lick our wounds. We've got four Test matches to play and to be thrown into another one straight away is probably the best thing that can happen.
"We're an aggressive team in the way we play our cricket. I think aggression is a state of mind as well and we've got some aggressive characters. We're not going to have a radical change.
"We'll look after our own games and we'll play in the way in which we've been successful doing and that's not going to change."

Dedy Sufriadi
God's Will, 2016
REDSEA Gallery
Book Series - Foot Note #1, 2016
REDSEA Gallery is proud to present Memorandum, a collection of new works by Indonesian artist Dedy Sufriadi. For the first time in Singapore, this new solo exhibition explores the process of merging philosophical and pop-culture texts with symbols spontaneously triggered by excerpted passages. Dedy expresses his emotions, including his life experiences and emotional journey through various series like Burning, Object, Dalai Lama and Book series. Combining cultural and political themes, Dedy creates a sense of fascination as well as a sense mystery and meaning behind each work. He uses an array of media on canvas to give his works multi-dimensional feel, and his use of words and letters in various languages, infuses the historical importance of symbolism into his abstract expressionist composition.

text: Discovery 2 was the uncompleted unseen counterpart of the Discovery 1. It was intended to be used in order to retrieve and return David Bowman and Frank Poole, from Discovery 1 back to Earth. The other three members of the original Discovery mission were to remain and study Jupiter and TMA-2. But due to complications initiated by the Discovery 1's computer HAL 9000, the entire crew of the original Discovery went dead or missing. With this lack of immediate need to complete the ship, Discovery 2 went uncompleted for nine more years. Eventually, Walter Curnow took charge of the reactivation and completion of the new vessel. However, this ship was eventually replaced by the already completed Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, which was built by the Soviet Union.

Affleck's late moment of magic seals a dramatic win for Bury
Bury St Edmunds 17
Dorking 13
A moment of magic from Will Affleck snatched the National Two League South points for Bury in dramatic style.
Having dominated possession, it looked like Bury would lose when scrum-half George Jackson landed an impudent drop goal on 73 minutes to edge Dorking 13-1 0 ahead.
However Bury refused to lie down and scored a glorious try to deservedly win the match, writes Simon Lord.
Bury No 8 Matt Edison's rampaging run finally got Bury behind the stubborn Dorking defence but the move looked to have faltered when Marshall's pass to Affleck landed at the fly-half's feet.
Affleck, in one movement, somehow caught the ball and off loaded to the supporting Matt Hema to send the Kiwi slicing through the cover and in for the try.
Bury dominanted the scrum but they laboured to break down a determined Dorking side that, with Cameron Pimlow at 10, always threatened to break out and punish a wasteful Bury outfit.
The home side wasted four gilt-edged chances in the opening period with only a Scot Lyle penalty to show for their efforts.
Scant reward, and this was highlighted even further when on 25 minutes and their first meaningful venture into the Bury half, Dorking scored.
Scrum-half Jackson, aware he had a penalty advantage, deliberately dropped the ball down to claim the penalty, took it himself and darted in under the posts before most people could react.
Matt Noble made no mistake with the conversion and then moments later landed a well struck penalty to push the visitors 10-3 up.
Bury went back on the attack but once again it looked like nothing would come of it.
Finally on the cusp of half-time Bury restored parity.
Lyle made use of an overlap to glide over and converted from wide out to send the sides in 10 points apiece.
The second half continued in similar vein to the first, in fact if anything, Bury dominatedeven more.
Dorking's defence, especially at the break down, was superb, but they were aided and abetted by Bury's lateral attacks.
The visitors merely fanned out in defence, tackled like demons and induced frustration amongst the home faithful.
Bury tried to turn the screw at the scrum but No 8 Harry Watts managed to somehow get the ball away from a retreating pack and then the boot of Noble cleared the lines.
Beau Gibson and Tim Mann entered the fray for the hosts but even they struggled to make an impact as Bury's attacks were becoming increasingly desperate.
Dorking could sense the chance of an upset.
Matt Edison was imperious in the line out and he twice stole the ball to thwart attacking Dorking positions.
However, the ultimate act of burglary looked to have happened when with just seven minutes to go, Jackson again reacted quickly to a penalty advantage.
This time the scrum-half fired off a low scudding drop goal that sneaked over the bar and between the uprights.
Just when it looked like Dorking had committed a smash-and-grab, Affleck's antics to send Hema over led to joyous celebrations among the Bury players aswell as fans in the crowd.

Clashes re-Erupt in South Syria between Bedouins, Farmers
By Nabil Al-Mulhem
Clashes flared Monday between peasants and Bedouins in Suwaydaa governorate in south Syria, during which one of the peasants, Ismael Fahed, was killed while he was working in his field located in Dahr el-Jabal area.
Eyewitnesses told Albawaba.com that a group of Bedouins also killed another peasant who was on his way to his farm, adding that the attackers managed to flee the scene after the murder.
17 peasants and three Bedouins were killed on November 6 during fierce clashes that broke when Bedouins brought their flocks onto planted fields.
The Syrian army interfered to put an end to the violence and deployed forces in the area, forcing Bedouins to move to areas near to Deraa governorate.
In the meantime, unionists issued several statements blaming the authorities for failing to solve the dispute between peasants and Bedouins.
The statement, issued by four unions, called on the authorities to disarm the Bedouins and mark out areas designated for them.

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Crude futures closed little changed Thursday as traders pondered the idea that a delay in the return of oil to U.S. petroleum reserves could add to already growing supplies in the market. Heating-oil prices climbed on the back of a surprise decline in last week's inventories.
The Energy Department has agreed to postpone a portion of the return of crude to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, said Jeff Mokychic, head analyst at BridgetonGlobal.com. The oil would have otherwise been due this year, following the department's release of a portion of the SPR last autumn because of price and supply concerns.
"As a result of the deal, those companies who are a part of the delay will have to return an additional 2.4 million barrels as interest on the 23.8 million barrels being delayed," he said.
The news "capped early gains, as it leaves extra crude oil in the marketplace at least temporarily," he added, noting that with recent OPEC cuts, the delay could help to build product supply.
Crude for May delivery rose by 1 cent to close at $26.32 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. April unleaded gasoline climbed by 0.9 cent to 91.92 cents a gallon.
April heating oil gained 2.72 cents to 77.79 cents a gallon. May natural gas eased by 17.9 cents to $5.279 per million British thermal units after a disappointingly small decline in last week's supplies. See full story.
Some analyses in the market Wednesday, following the latest petroleum supply data, implied that imports would soon slacken and that refinery crude runs would rise to restore balance to the market, Tim Evans, an analyst at IFR Pegasus said in a daily report.
However, the U.S. and Europe may "play hot potato" with oil cargoes that neither market needs or wants during a time when refiners are looking ahead to the May-June timeframe when demand seasonally declines and they'll need less crude, he said.
The American Petroleum Institute and the Energy Department posted, respectively, an 8.9 million and 11.2 million barrel rise in U.S. crude inventories as of the week ended March 23.
The two reports also confirmed that U.S. distillate inventories, which include heating oil, dropped by 447,000 barrels and 2.8 million barrels, according to the API and Energy Department, respectively. See full story.
Palladium, gold fall
Palladium prices fell Thursday on concerns over a possible drop in demand and gold futures followed suit.
Last week, car manufacturer Honda said it plans to build a catalytic converter using lower levels of palladium, Ross Norman, director of TheBullionDesk.com in London.
The move could reduce demand for platinum group metals by a factor of five, he said. See full story.
June palladium slipped $20.70 to close at $738 an ounce while April platinum eased by $12.50 to $558 an ounce.
Meanwhile, gold for April delivery shed 90 cents to settle at $258.80 an ounce. May silver fell to $4.335 an ounce, down 4 cents.
The CRB/Bridge Index, a broad-based measure of commodity futures markets, fell 0.6 percent to 213.55.
May pork bellies declined by 0.925 cent to close at 92.90 cents a pound. April lean hogs shed 0.750 cent to 63.875 cents a pound. April live cattle added 0.5 cent to 78.825 cents a pound. April feeder cattle rose 0.350 cent to 87.375 cents a pound.
May coffee rose 0.6 cent to close at 61.75 cents a pound. May cocoa added $17 to $1,064 per metric ton. May sugar fell 0.14 cent to 8.38 cents a pound. May cotton eased 1.87 cents to 45.69 a pound. May frozen orange juice fell 0.25 cent to 76 cents a pound. May corn fell 2 cents to 207 1/4 cents a bushel. May soybeans slipped 5 1/4 to 436 1/2 cents a bushel. May wheat tacked on 3/4 cent to 265 cents a bushel.

In this landmark British thriller, gangster Harold Shand, memorably played with great relish by Bob Hoskins, dreams of developing London's rundown dockland and becoming a legitimate businessman. He also wants a partnership with the American Mafia. However, his plans are put in jeopardy when a number of his associates are attacked. Increasingly paranoid, Harold sets out to discover who is behind them and slowly realises the answer is much more political than he ever imagined.

Really looking forward to the mid-week matinee of this great British gangster movie. I can recommend attending the informal post screening discussion with Roy Stafford for those looking to develop an in-depth appreciation of this movie.

I liked the look of Carolyn PJ from Closet case patterns and it is really a nice pattern with a Classic manly look that I understand is actually really hot as a day look according to some magazines I´ve been reading lately.
I used quilters cotton from my stash and bought some bias binding for the top.
Do I like it? Yes and No!
No I don´t like to sleep in it , maybee course I´m used to sleeping in cotton jersey and I don´t like the blue color of the pants, I might toss them away or try to dye them in a darker shade and something I dont like about the pattern is that the seam allowances in the collar and neck area is to big, I prefer 1 cm here.
Yes, I like my shirt very much and intend to wear it as a blouse and yes I like the pant as a pattern. It´s a very good pull on pant with pockets and elastic waist that I can see myself wearing in a both viscose, linen and cotton, I might even make a couple of shorts from it, and while I´m writing this I´m thinking of making a day PJ in a nice fabric to wear this summer...
Oh shit! That is a lausy picture, I really don´t know how to get a decent selfie, thought the pillow was cute (due to lack of teddie)

"Mom, is that Grandpa or is that Santa?"
I guess a lot of us, when we become parents, kind of start thinking about how we're going to answer The Big Santa Question. That is, if you even do the whole Santa thing.
Well, we do, and to make matters a bit more complicated, my dad moonlights as Santa up in the Upper Peninsula, where he and mom live.
Logan only saw Grandpa as Santa his first Christmas, so he was too young to really remember, but I took the photos you see up above and they are part of a photo DVD I had made of Logan's first year.
We were watching that DVD the other day, and Logan furrowed his brow and took a closer look and asked if it was Grandpa or Santa.
"It's Grandpa," I replied, matter-of-factly.
"Is Grandpa Santa?" Logan asked.
"No. He just helps Santa out because Santa's REALLLLLLLLLLY busy this time of year getting ready for Christmas."
"Oh. OK," he said, and went about his business.
Cool. That was easy.
And Grandpa earned some major bonus points in Logan's book, because he personally knows and is employed by Santa.
I don't remember exactly when it was that I asked my mom The Question. I remember she was putting on her makeup and I was sitting on the toilet (lid down, sillies!) watching her like I often did. I asked if there was a Santa. She looked at me and asked if I really wanted her to tell me. That right there gave me the answer. I think I asked about the Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny, too. I don't remember being devastated or anything, just maybe a touch sad. Good ole Mom and Dad, though, still gave me presents from Santa after that.
I don't know when Logan will ask if Santa exists, or what exactly I will tell him. I guess I better start thinking about it.
For now, though, it's good enough to know that Grandpa works for Santa.
Santa's a good threat, too. I keep threatening to sell Logan to Santa, who needs a new elf to shovel reindeer poop. Logan insists Santa can do the job, but I told him Santa's too busy maintaining the Naughty List.
Here's a photo of Dad last year doing the gig at Seul Choix Lighthouse. Yes, that's his own beard. He started growing it in June! He doesn't have to use any whitener anymore either!
I love being Santa's kid!

The afternoon session of class on Monday was interesting, well for me. We talked about determiners, and parts of speech and types of words. Silly grammar things that don't matter when speaking, but do matter when trying to learn a new language. I forgot my English grammar book, which annoys me, so hopefully I won't lead my students astray! Monday night was calm, with good food I'm sure and good company. We have been swimming a lot, and just walking around town. Enjoying street food, and restaurant food. Mostly Thai food but some Western food along the way. It is a nice lifestyle.
Tuesday we learned a new model for teaching: receptive learning. Reading (passive) is matched with writing (active) and listening (passive) is matched with speaking (active) in this model. This model can be used with stronger language learners whereas the basic and young learners model focus more on pictures to teach. I find all of this pedagogy fascinating, and the grammar lesson afterward was great too. Phonology has always interested me way too much, and makes me play with my mouth as I pronounce voiced bi-labio fricatives and unvoiced dental stops. Too much fun. After class life was pretty calm; I'm just trying to get through "On the Road". I can't identify with Sal Paradise or Dean Moriatry at all, which really is not good when reading a novel.
I drank way too much coffee on Wednesday morning. I was bouncing all over class, which was not that fun. I started having jitters, and annoying my bestie, Andie, who is from Georgia and sweet as candy. After class, I crashed, and all of a sudden I was sore, and tired, and not happy. I was feeling feverish, and decided to just rest for the rest of the day. Grammar session was really not fun on Wednesday, and I was happy to finally sleep. That night I woke and my fever must have broke. I was drenched in cold sweat, and my blankets were soaking. But I was freezing. I'm not sure if this is H1N1 or what, but it is flu season here, and a lot of Thais are getting swine flu.
I luckily felt better on Thursday, which was our last peer teaching. We followed a receptive teaching method, and my partner was Jim. Jim is a 43-year-old ex-marine originally born in Turkey but an American through and through. He is a pretty cool guy. However, at the moment I was really excited to start teaching lessons by myself. It worked out well in the end, but I was only able to do the audio part of the lesson and the warmer, which might make me unprepared for having to use this model in the classroom next week.
After peer teaching we were assigned our topics: I had superheroes. It took me four or five hours to draw the pictures of my 9 superheroes and then 9 pictures of their attributes. Lesson learned? Don't actually make beautiful pictures!! I was feverish, not enjoying life, and just wanted to go to bed. At around nine o'clock I finally had the chance to sleep. My roommate, Andy, was nice and had brought me broth to eat. Another peer also dropped off food for me to eat. It was really cute. At ten, Shirley, the Latina from New York used some sort of chant to get me to sleep. It was esoteric by nature, and something to do with my chakras. I'm not sure if it worked, but it was nice to hear her say 'se fa se fa se fa' over and over again.
Friday morning was the first actual lesson. I took an ibuprofen to stave off the fever and headed off for the day. It was a little stressful, teaching students a lesson that I didn't feel was that necessary. How many people need to know how to say that Catwoman has claws? The buses brought us thirty minutes outside of the city to this random school. The kids were so cute, but a little intimidating. I was second to teach, and was sweating like crazy. A little bit from nerves, but mostly from the heat of the classroom. My puzzle flew all around from the fans, but turning off these fans just made the classroom muggier. The kids seemed to have fun even if I didn't feel the lesson was that relevant.
The drugs wore off pretty much when I got back to the hotel. I was dizzy again, slightly feverish. I had to write a lesson plan for Monday, but then was able to lie down in bed. The group had plans for a celebratory night after our first real lesson. I came out with them as a voyeur for about an hour to the Pirate's Cove, but then really had to go to bed. I did have a nice macaroni and cheese for dinner, but that wasn't that cool. Shirley did another esoteric type of healing. She put limes covered with salt over my eyes to suck out the fever. It might have worked…
On Saturday, I was finally feeling more like myself. In the early part of the day, we flagged down one of the converted pick-up trucks or song tao (which literally means two rows) and headed to Doi Suthep. This mountain is the home of a majestic temple that has one of the best views of Chiang Mai. After a windy ride, a breathless hike, and a tourist fee for the temple, we enjoyed this thrilling Buddhist architecture.
Katy, looking Thai.
Kong, who is Buddhist and amazing, bought some incense and candles and walked around the inner section three times, asking for merit. The rest of us took countless pictures and I had a delicious cookies and cream ice cream. Kong also introduced me to sticky rice cooked in bamboo with nuts, that was savory, sweet, and otherworldly. The others bought a huge noodle, rice, and sticky mixture on a stick that appeared to be a giant sausage. Man, this food is to die for.
That night, feeling like myself again, I joined the group for a night on the town. We first went to a boxing match. Well, it is kind of boxing, kind of karate. It is called Muay Thai, and although I was worried that it would be too violent for me, there wasn't any flying teeth or blood so it was just culturally interesting. Unfortunately, it was also on the seedier side of town, and there were obvious prostitutes hanging around. There were also a number of vendors selling flowers, bracelets, hats, and the like, and they could be quite persistent. Jim ended up buying me a bracelet, which was awesome, and will be a nice reminder of the night. After Muay Thai we went dancing at a place called Spicy. Apparently, the places start getting crazy here around two, but by then we were pretty tired and wanted to go to bed. Oh, the life of a teacher.
The next morning was a quiet and calm day. Hours were spent in the morning putting together my lesson for the next day. Luckily, we have grouped together, and the four of us working on the "At the Hospital" topic made copies for one another. Hopefully such a system will work in Korea. The rest of the day was spent lounging until the walking street market, which takes place on Sunday near our hotel. You can find anything there besides DVDs apparently. My goal was to buy a copy of Bruno, but instead I spent an hour waving through such an insane amount of pedestrians that I barely had to move my feet to keep moving. Blind people would stand in the middle of the streets, palms bared, begging for the money that I can unfortunately not really spare at the moment. Street musicians filled our ears with harmonic structures unfamiliar to my Western ear. It was glorious, but overwhelming. I bought my little sister a b-day present, 19!, but probably won't send it for a while. The amount of things I wanted to buy was huge, but luckily I have some sense of restraint, and ended up quickly walking to the other side of town to the night market where I bought a copy of Bruno and half the class relaxed and laughed to this hugely inappropriate comedy.
Monday morning I woke up early, ready to teach my second lesson to actual language learners- staff members at our hotel. After the usual, an omelet from perhaps my favorite vendor in Thailand, I was eager to teach some of the hotel staff a lesson titled "At the Hospital". My favorite four line dialogue in my lesson was: "A: What's the matter? B: My body hurts. A: Why? B: I fell down the stairs." The last line was accompanied with a poorly drawn person tumbling from a gigantic staircase. Pretty classy. I was lucky enough to go last, and being able to witness my peers' attempts at the 'basic model' first gave me insights into the best way to teach adult learners. Of course, it had its flaws, but luckily one of the students had enough language skill to ask questions. She even asked me what the difference between 'chest' and 'breast' was, which was awfully fun to pantomime. I was also able to give them some significant phrases with particular issues they had at the hotel.
After class we were assigned our topic for Tuesday, and I drew music. This was our first lesson where we were able to print out our pictures instead of draw everything by hand. Nonetheless, we had to color these pictures, which ended up taking an enormous amount of time. My friend Katie unfortunately lost her wallet yesterday, which is such a huge mess in a foreign country. Luckily, her family was able to cancel her credit cards and figure out how to get her money. She is such a sweetheart, so hopefully it all works out. After a quick dip in the pool, I went out for some sort of vegetarian eggplant dish with rice and some fried pork and lamb dumplings. It was all delicious (aloi) and nothing is hurting my stomach. Then again, that may be because I am now eating PB&J for at least one meal a day… I thought it would be a nice way to stretch a buck, but it ended up costing around the same price as nine meals. So it will have to be nine meals for me! The day ended with Jack Kerouac (finally finished) and some wandering around the city. It really is a beautiful town.
Today was a somewhat frustrating day. My lesson for today, geared toward eleven and twelve year old children, focused on music. Instead of going the easy route and teaching my children instruments, I ended up trying to teach about musical genres. That may have been a mistake. Although my students recognized names such as Beyonce and Kanye West, explaining the differences between country twangs and hip-hop beats was not that easy. Although I could explain rap on the fly, I didn't really want to go into a Taylor Swift ballad in front of my classroom. In the words of Alanis Morissette, however, you live and you learn. Confronted with a class that couldn't understand my lesson, I had a huge desire to be in South Korea, with a class that I would know, and with firm lessons leading their learning. Pedagogy is difficult in a vacuum, and most of our lessons in Thailand have proven to be without prior context. Hopefully I will be singing a different song in a couple of weeks, with eager learners and set lessons.
Of course, the most difficult part ended up being the death of my computer. I was just sitting there, typing, and all of a sudden it decided to say I had too much spyware. And this was right after I had finished typing about what happened on Sunday. Which means I have had to write a lot. With all this labor, I hope that you were able to get through this mouthful. But as I always say, according to my step-dad, c'est la vie, whatever. It will work out!

I've got a new job recently and when I was sorting my stuff at the old place I thought about what things to bring to the new place. First of course just the most important stuff, then some other by time and on demand.
My list is subjective and female office workers can relate to it more.
- tissues

- feminine products

West Texas A&M is opening up its Lone Star Conference portion of the schedule when they play host to the Tarleton Texans at 6 p.m. tonight on Happy State Bank Field at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium.
Entering league play, WT finds itself in one of the top conference's in the country.
Defending Division II national champion, Texas A&M-Commerce, coached by Friona graduate Colby Carthel, is ranked No. 1 in the Division II American Football Coaches Association Poll. Not far behind is, MSU Texas, formerly known as Midwestern State.
The Mustangs are ranked No. 5 in the country at 2-0 overall after whipping national runner-up West Florida last Saturday.
"I think everyone has gotten better in the league," WT coach Hunter Hughes said. "Texas A&M-Kingsville is better, UT Permian Basin played tough with Northern Michigan. The key is, you have to get off to a good start. There is a challenge coming in Tarleton, and we're ready to accept it."
The Buffs are 1-1 overall after a 42-7 rout of Oklahoma Panhandle State last Saturday.
The WT defense is off to a great start, leading the nation in interceptions with seven. Buff cornerback's Keith Blank and Tobias Harris ran two of those pick's back for touchdowns against the Aggies.
However, second-year Hughes knows his team will need a better offensive performance if they want to be in the game with a team like the Texans.
WT starting quarterback Mitch Hood was 8-of-18 with an interception, throwing for 142 yards. But did have timing issues with some of his receivers.
"I'd like to see Mitch make some of those throws he's been a little off on," Hughes said. "I'd like to see our receivers run crisper routes. But, on the defensive side, I'd like to see our linebackers attack hard and not get pushed around. I'd like to see our secondary not only be good at going to get the ball, but be good tacklers."
Tarleton (1-0) has only played one game so far this season. The Texans demolished Delta State 44-13, on Sept. 1. The Texans second game against Stephen F. Austin State last Saturday due to inclement weather.
Against the Statesmen, the Tarleton offense put up 448 yards of offense behind running back Daniel McCants. McCants packed a punch, rushing for 145 yards with a score.
Defensively, the Texans are stacked with a senior laden front seven led by Tyrell Thompson. Thompson (6-foot-4, 330 pounds) leads a defensive line that averages 300 pounds.
Also rotating on the line, is Perryton graduate Sean Walton.
"Their running backs can break tackles," Hughes said. "We have to tackle well. We didn't tackle well last year. Defensively, they are very physical up front. They dominated us last year a little bit. Anyone would want that front seven. They can play at any level. Our receivers will be challenged and we'll need to step up."
The series: The Buffs lead the all-time series 15-12 and are 8-6 in games played in Canyon. Tarleton held off a late rally from the Buffs for a 30-20 win on Sept. 23, last season.

'80s Metal Pioneer, Willie Basse has announced the touring line-up for his group in support of his new album "The Money Grind." Basse will be joined by Geoff Nicholls on keyboards (Black Sabbath / Quartz), drummer Bobby Rondinelli (Black Sabbath / Rainbow / Blue Oyster Cult) and guitarist Mitch Perry (M.S.G./ Aerosmith) for a European and US tour. Actual cities and dates to be announced.
Basse is best known for his role as bassist/frontman for the LA based legendary metalheads, Black Sheep, who were staples of The Sunset Strip during the metal explosion of the '80s. Basse has now re-grouped and released a solo album "The Money Grind" on his own label New Empire Media. The album has an unapologetic approach to metal and emphasizes strong song writing skills that have been put on the backburner by most modern musicians.
Willie Basse's "The Money Grind" is currently making an impact at radio where the album has garnered adds from WKTA in Chicago, WRIF in Detroit, Extreme Radio in New York, KKFI in Kansas City. The album debuted on radio's FMQB charts and CMJ's Loud Charts with airplay at many stations right alongside metal gods Judas Priest.
