As Tall As Lions was an indie rock band from Long Island, New York.[1]
High school friends Dan Nigro (lead vocals & guitars), Saen Fitzgerald (guitar, keyboards, & percussion), Brian Fortune (guitars & keyboards) and Cliff Sarcona (drums & percussion) founded the band in December 2001 as they were looking to continue the momentum of a previous project[2], a group called SundazE.
"Blood and Aphorisms" was released in July 2002 at local venue Backstreet Blues. Upon its release, vocalist Dan Nigro sent the EP to some websites, which caught the attention of then-influential "thescout.net". The EP garnered the band local radio airplay and the attention of the local music scene. Without a permanent live bassist however, the band used studio engineer Rich Leigey, who had worked on the EP, and friend Julio Tavarez, before Dan Nigro began auditioning and recruiting bassists. It wasn't until October 2002 that the band brought on board bassist Brian Caesar. A few months later the band signed a joint development deal with Island Records and Triple Crown Records.[3]
In May 2003, the band relocated to Chicago, Illinois, to record their debut album, Lafcadio with Sean O'Keefe. Asked to re-release the EP by the label, the band settled on handpicking songs from "Blood and Aphorisms" as well as adding new ones.[4]
At the end of October of that year, Nigro, Sarcona and Caesar went back to Chicago's Gravity Studios, using money out of their own pocket and successfully remixed and re-tracked the final three songs. Later the band returned to O'Keefe on several occasions to record the songs "33" & "Mellon Collie..." for an unreleased Smashing Pumpkins tribute album, the song "Children in Bloom" for the Counting Crows compilation album "Dead and Dreaming" and the song "Girl of the North Country" for a Bob Dylan tribute album.
While three of the band members were in Chicago, guitarist Brian Fortune had enrolled at St. John's University in Queens and withdrew from the band. After months of auditioning guitar players with little luck, the band agreed to move vocalist Dan Nigro to guitar (he had previously been strictly a vocalist) and continue on as a quartet. The band set out on numerous tours in support of "Lafcadio" and while they admit they were "young and having fun," they were losing money daily.[4] Then in July 2004, bassist Brian Caesar left the band citing a desire to lead an ordinary life.[4]
The band came home from tour and wrote the songs "Stab City" and "Where Do I Stand." In July 2005, while writing, Fitzgerald, Sarcona and Tavarez left for a trip to the Dominican Republic. While there Nigro stayed home as he was feeling good about the writing process and was comfortable with the progress. Soon thereafter As Tall as Lions wrote "Songs for Luna," "Love, Love, Love" "Maybe I'm Just Tired" and "A Break A Pause." In October, just as they were about to enter the studio, the band completed writing with "A Soft Hum," "Ghost of York," "Be Here Now", "Kicking Myself," and b-side "Underbelly." The band gathered together producer Steven Haigler and longtime ATAL producer Mike Watts in the Freeport, NY VuDu Studios. They continued recording through the fall, finishing the mixes in January 2006. Incredibly proud of the record, the band showed the songs to their record label, who immediately wrote the songs off as "soft" and maintained that there were "no radio singles." In the third week of January, the band finished mixing and set out on tour. It was around this time that the band decided to ask friend, Rob Parr, to join the band on tour as keyboardist after having met him while touring in support of Lafcadio. Having never played piano, Parr worked hard to familiarize himself with the new instrument and by February of that year, he was touring with the band in support of the not-yet-released self-titled album.
On August 8, 2006 the band released their self-titled album. In October the band set out on tour in support of it. Between tours the band began work on a holiday EP, and recorded "It's Only Christmas", cover "Across The Universe" and cover "O' Holy Night", only to be unreleased but lived on via different web sites & released compilations. The band inked a spot on the AP Tour in March of that year and remained on that bill through April. The band began a headlining tour in June and July, playing to packed crowds nightly. On July 17 the Long Island quartet made its television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. They continued on tour in August and September and came home in the winter to work on new material.
Reformulating previous ideas, As Tall as Lions began writing what would become the EP "Into the Flood." On Nov. 27, the band released the EP to iTunes, charting the Top 50 for the first week of release. During its release, drummer Sarcona and bassist Tavarez went on a national tour with the Boston-based project The Dear Hunter. An ATAL tour with Silverchair followed in December, as well as other select dates. The EP was released on vinyl on March 17. In January 2008 the band began work on their new record "You Can't Take It With You. You Can't Take It With You was released on August 18, 2009. "
On September 29, 2010, As Tall As Lions announced that the band was amicably splitting up.[5] Three fourths of the band (Julio, Saen, and Cliff) formed an experimental/improvisation/instrumental band Kilimanjaro, which is currently on hiatus.[6] Lead singer Dan Nigro is working on a solo project, named Blocks.[7] On January 29, 2013, Sarcona and Tavarez announced their new project, The Black and the White, along with releasing new music and touring in 2013 and 2014.[8] Guitarist Saen Fitzgerald is currently in a band called Willis Work. Keyboardist Rob Parr is now a guitarist and backing vocalist in The Dear Hunter.

Several newer constitutive relations have recently been proposed for describing the mechanical behavior of metals and alloys under elevated temperature creep conditions. A salient feature of the mathematical structure of many of these relations is that they typically express the nonelastic strain rates as functions of the current values of stress, temperature, and some other suitably defined state variables. A computational scheme is presented in this paper for the inelastic analysis of metallic structures subjected to both mechanical and thermal loadings and obeying constitutive relations of the type described before. Several numerical examples for the creep of thick-walled spheres, cylinders, and rotating disks in the presence of thermal gradients are presented. The particular constitutive relations used in these calculations are due to Hart. The proposed computational scheme is found to be very efficient from the view point of both computational time and effort. The effects of previous cold work on the stress redistribution and creep of these structural elements are discussed.

In last week's Gold update I said:
Because we are looking for the confirmation of such a very long cycle peak, I am going to watch with interest over the next two or three days and see how price interacts with that 80-day FLD.
And I explained that the Gold price could either cross neatly (at a roughly 90 degree angle) or it could "ride up" the FLD.
What did it do? On Wednesday 21 September (two days later) it crossed the FLD, but only just, and then on Thursday 22 September price moved down to create a nearly "textbook" FLD cross.
Note how price moved straight down to the 20-week FLD? When that happens it is a good indication that our analysis is sound. Price is now trapped in a gap pause zone between those two FLD's, but it is expected of course to cross below the 20-week FLD as well, as each of the cycles up to at least the 18-month cycle confirm the peak formed on 6 September.
Here is a reminder of the long term picture:
Next week I will discuss whether the peak on 6 September 2011 was a peak of the 18-month cycle or of the 54-month cycle. Either way, the price of Gold is expected to drop for many months.

Bous Continued
A timely early dinner, and off to Ontinyent again to see the second day of the bulls on a rope. Start time 4pm, so leave home at 3ish. We got to our usual parking spot, and there were still a few spaces left. Perfect.
We strolled to the road where the bulls start, and took some pictures around the corral and leading to the old town centre. Strolling up the hill, I was impressed that there were so many people about so early. Yesterday, no one appeared until after the first bull had started. As we neared the main square (still in a narrow street) I suddenly became aware that there were actually a LOT of people in front of us, and they were all looking in the same direction. Ah. Obviously there us a bull just in front of us - this wasn't a part of the game plan. Sure enough, it had started at 3pm and we had walked into the midst of it all. When the bull finally went into the main square we followed it. At least now we had somewhere to escape, if we needed to.
We had a drink in a nearby bar during the interval. They have a TV on, which is showing the bull live. When the next one came out, we saw it on the TV, then looked out of the window as it ran past! After a few minutes, when we had both finished our drinks, we went back outside. All the people were running as I left the bar, so I headed the same way (towards the main square), but within a few feet, I realised that I was now actually being passed by the bull. He ran into the square ahead of me, but I was certainly glad to be out in the open again.
Once the 3rd (and final) bull went back through the arches for the last time, Ed and I followed, as our car was in that direction. When we were part way down the hill, to our suprise, the bull decided to come back up again. Hundreds of people running in such a narrow space was rather dangerous. Most of them are running one way, but looking another (at the bull) so everyone is bumped and pushed about. Finally, we broke into the square again. About 10 minutes later, it went down through the arches again, but this time it really was the final time!
We strolled down to the bottom and across the bridge. It was very pretty in the twilight, with the lights on everywhere. Then I realised... lots of people again, all looking in the same direction... sure enough, once again, we had managed to get between the bull and its destination. This time, instead of going uphill to the corall, it had gone downhill, and had to be brought back. When it came past us, it decided it didn't want to go up the hill and stopped and turned. This time, I was very unsure of which way to go. I looked for Ed, and he was trapped by a low wall, with a very large drop behind him. In front of him was a signpost which certainly wouldn't have protected him! Thankfully, they bull then decided to follow the crowds, and went back to the corral on it's own.
Everyone sang songs and cheered. Time to celebrate the end of another fiesta.

Mobile call charges were today hiked by up to 30 per cent as leading operators Bharti Airtel and Idea Cellular announced revisions on account of rising costs.
Bharti Airtel, India's largest mobile phone operator, and Idea Cellular raised call charges mostly by way of reduction in free minutes or airtime available on most plans.
Price of pre-paid special vouchers that offer services at discounted rates was also hiked while validity period on some recharge coupons reduced.
Other operators like Vodafone are likely to follow suit soon.
Airtel slashed free minutes available in certain plans by 10-25 per cent and hiked price of some call vouchers for prepaid customers by Rs 5-15 (10-30 per cent), market sources said.
The price hike would extend to all of 22 telecom circles in phases, they said.
The hike in call charges come as companies face thousands of crore in one-time surcharge on airwaves they hold beyond a threshhold.
Bharti Airtel said in a statement it has not raised headline tariffs but reduced promotional benefits and free minutes offered to customers. The price change, it said, was in line with the increase in its costs.
"There is no change in the headline tariff. In most circles we have reduced promotional benefits and free minutes on both acquisition and existing usage," the release said.
Idea, India's No 3 carrier by revenue and No 4 by customers, said it had effectively raised voice call prices in some parts of the country after withdrawing promotional offers. The company however did not provide any details.

I have been creating images of nature for over 25 years. I am drawn to the textures and contrasts present in landscapes, found objects and still lifes. I shoot with a Nikon N90S and a Mamiya 7 using mostly Ilford black and white film and available light.
Each print 11x14 & smaller is individually created using silver gelatin archival processing techniques on fiber photographic papers. Only a total of 25 images in each size is made from each negative. Since each photograph is created by hand, every print is unique. Toning, hand coloring and other image enhancing techniques are used when appropriate to the image.
16 x 20 and larger prints are produced under my supervision using digital imaging techniques. The original negative is scanned and the image is printed using archival inks on watercolor paper.
The Polaroid transfers are made from slides of the images taken with 35 mm color slide film. The slide is exposed to Polaroid film; after partial development, the emulsion is transferred from the Polaroid film to water color paper. The image can then be enhanced with photographic hand coloring techniques.
All materials used in production and framing images are archival and should last through many years of enjoyment.

SARS, Asian Bird Flu, H1N1 and other global pandemics are spreading more rapidly than at any time in human history because of globalization and travel. The effects of these diseases have been severe and the public is growing increasingly concerned about their health and safety. From these and other disease outbreak experiences, governments have learned that they need to change the way they respond to these new health threats.
That's why the Public Health Agency of Canada decided to work with us to design and build a strategic social media presence. In a matter of weeks,1000s of Canadians become "fans" of the agency on Facebook, receiving real-time updates on H1N1 when they most needed it. Others have used the agency's innovative H1N1 Information Centre to share personalized information on the virus. And, the agency has recently launched the first branded YouTube channel of any government organization in Canada.
By having personalized health advice shared through their social networks, Canadians are able to make more informed decisions to protect their health.

Here is my veggie chili recipe that I make for my work lunches. I have made this with meat (ground beef, and cubes) before but in an effort to cut back on red meat I now opt for the meat-less version.
The secret to the chili is the spice combination. You can basically add anything you want in terms of veggies. I add what ever I have on hand.
The secret to the chili is the spice combination. You can basically add anything you want in terms of veggies. I add what ever I have on hand.
1 Tbs olive oil
1 large white onion (or red) diced
1 red or green pepper (or both) diced
1-2 cups of sliced mushrooms
3 peeled and cut carrots
4 celery stalks cut
1 half zucchini cut
2 cloves of garlic minced
2 Tbs chili powder
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of cinnamon and dried oregano
1 tsp white sugar
1/4 tsp of salt
1 can diced tomatoes
3/4 of a carton of either chicken, beef or vegetable broth
2 Tbs tomato paste
2 Tbs red wine or apple cider vinegar
1 can of drained black or kidney beans.
(frozen corn can be added at the very end if you wish)
In dutch oven on medium heat add olive oil, onions and garlic. Saute for a few minutes then add the rest of the veggies, cook for five or so minutes, stirring frequently. Then add chili powder, cumin,cinnamon, oregano, sugar and salt, cook for additional five minutes. Then add tomatoes, broth, vinegar, tomato paste and beans. Bring to a boil reduce heat to low and cover, simmer for an hour, stirring occasionally
Uncover and simmer until thickened for an additional hour.
One of the keys for me for me to eat healthier is having healthy choices at my fingertips. A batch of this chili will usually last me a week. The next week I will alternate and make a veggie coconut curry soup. I will share this recipe with you in the next couple of weeks.

Light-gun games are some of the most popular at the arcades, thanks to games like Area 51 and the Virtua Cop series. Unfortunately, the PlayStation's first foray into the light-gun arena has proven somewhat underwhelming.
Despite some great character design by Masamune Shirow, creator of anime hit Ghost In The Shell, Horned Owl comes up somewhat flat. A tracking camera guides you through a 3D environment, as enemies pop up from behind every conceivable hiding place. The gun (available separately from Konami) is accurate and easily calibrated, but the enemies, which are sprite based, don't allow for much variety. Everybody goes down the same, regardless of where they've been shot.
The missions are long, the backgrounds are interactive, and the enemies never stop coming. That's about all that can be said for Horned Owl, though. The anime-style is cool, but isn't enough to carry it.

Collecting Water in the Wild
Are you planning on going hiking? Camping? Canoeing? Every year, people are doing just these things, and end up getting lost without a clue as to were they are, or how to get home.
If you get lost in the wilderness for more than a day, there are four important things that you will need in order to stay alive: Food, water, shelter, and a positive attitude. Other than the positive attitude, the most important aspect of survival is water, luckily, its also one of the easiest to obtain.
Of course, you can find water in rivers and streams, but this takes searching, and needs to be purified before drinking it. actually though, water is all around you, in the air. You just have to know how to collect it.
If your in an area with many trees or small shrubs, you can collect water from the dew that collects on plants. All you need is a rubber band (Optional), and a plastic bag of any size (Most plastic shopping bags are a good size, and collect a decent amount of water as well). Place the paper bag over a branch of any living tree or shrub, as long as its not poisonous or sprayed with any pesticides, with one corner of the bag being lower than the rest, to collect the water in. Now secure the ends of the bag with the rubber band so its air tight. If you don't have a rubber band, you can use any form of string or rope, as long as no air can get in. Wait for about a five hours, and depending on conditions, the type of tree, etc, you should be able to take off the rubber band and enjoy about a cup full of water!
If your somewhere were there are few shrubs but lots of sunlight, you can build a solar still! Look for any kind of depression, or low point in the ground were rainwater might collect. In the depression, dig out a small pit, about 5 ft. wide, and 3 ft. deep, and in the middle of that hole, dig out an even smaller hole, and place a cup or bowl in it. Cover up the hole with a sheet of plastic, making sure no moisture can escape, and place rocks at the sides to weigh it down. Place one more rock in the center of the plastic, over the cup or bowl, so it droops down, allowing the water to collect on the underside of the plastic, and flow down into the cup. After a few hours, there should be enough water for you to drink. If were you are is especially dry, you can try placing a vegetable, such as a carrot inside the still in order to increase the amount of water collected.
So if you get lost, and need water, you'll know the second smartest and safest way of getting hydrated! The smartest way to stay hydrated though, is to not get lost in the first place, so be careful any time when your out in the wilderness, especially by yourself.

Tara - posted on 01/28/2015 ( 10 moms have responded )
My son was born a big boy at 36w5d he weighed 8lbs4.3oz. Had some complications with severe jaundice and was 're-admitted to hospital on day 5 of life with a weeks stay in the nicu. I am ebf my little one and I was always under the assumption that you can't overfeed a breastfed baby yet my pedi at 4 month check up told me to cut babys feeding down to 5times a day and to wait on baby food until closer to 6 months. My son weighed 20lbs and measured 27 inches at 4months, is that too heavy? Yea my boy has an appetite on him but I was told in my breast feeding class that there is no over feeding a breast fed baby and that I should feed on demand. About two weeks ago we started baby on rice cereal and breast feeding 6 times a day and about a week ago started introducing veggies and some fruit but at 5months we took him to a developmental specialist since he was a premie and had the severe jaundice and they told me that I should not night feed my son at all since he was considered overweight (22lbs.) Can a breastfed baby be overweight? Am I hurting my son by feeding him at night when he wakes up hungry or should I let him go without it? I'm a first time mom and I feel like somehow I am failing and making my baby boy fat... :'(

You successfully deployed a digital signage solution that fits your needs-now what? After your initial training, can navigate your CMS software — but do you actually know how to reap the benefits of digital signage?
Simple: create eye-catching fresh content! Sound painful? You're not alone; many users struggle to keep their content looking "awe" worthy- The good news is that most common digital content blunders are easy to fix! After making a few simple changes to your strategy, you will see an instant increase in audience engagement. To get you started, here are the four common mistakes facilities seem to make when creating content for their digital signage:
1. Boring content
It doesn't matter what type of screens you are using — plain content will ruin your audience engagement. Digital signage is meant to attract attention and encourage awareness. If your content is black text on a white background, you might as well throw a tarp over your signs.
While there might not be anything you can do to pep up a message like: "Meeting in the Conference Room at 3 p.m.," you can make the appearance fun. Photography is a tried-and-true method of engaging audiences. Stock photography is a helpful resource for embellishing generic messages-as well as adding animation. Motion graphics can easily transform slides from boring to mesmerizing. You can also add in short video links to turn longer messages into more appealing content.
2. Stale, moldy slides
Viewers want fresh content on a regular basis. Even if you don't have a new announcement to add, changing the visual appearance can give old messages a new light. A quick change of the color, images, or animation can work wonders.
3. Information overload
Here's a full day's schedule, a message from the facility, and an upcoming event — you have 10 seconds to digest all of that! Go!
Lack of focus leads to confusion. Digital signage is meant to streamline communications, not jam all communication into a short period of time. If one slide covers all the topics of your newsletter … you're not using your announcement space properly. Keep asides to the side and limit the content of the slide to one idea, for example: "Free Food: Friday, July 24, 2015, 1-3 p.m."
4. Death by novel
Audiences want brief messages that are easy to digest — so long text passages in a tiny font size is a content disaster. If your audience doesn't get the message in 3 seconds, you need to delete some text.
Remember, this is digital signage — not an essay. Paragraphs are a turnoff. Try to keep your message to two short sentences at most. If you can't limit your text, then split your message into multiple slides.
Don't limit the effectiveness of your digital content with common mistakes. These are easy fixes, and can only lead to improvement. Viewers must stay engaged with fresh, relevant content so that you get the most out of your digital communication products!

Feeling much better today 💜 I got an eye infection of some kind so my eye needs some treatment. Maybe from one of the dogs at the vets office. Sterile water and cotton pads might do the trick, if not off to the vet again.

Vet visit done <3
Monti is done with the teeth cleaning and he is so tired right now. He got fluids in case he don't want to drink right away. We are going to start brushing his teeth at least 3 times a week to keep up the pearly whites. Now both of us will go to sleep, monti sleeping of the meds and me catching up on some sleep 🌒
Spring canceled
Beautiful day
White tail deer
Yesterday we went to the beach and the weather was really lovely! All of a sudden Monti gets all wird and starts making high-pitched noises. He saw a deer and lost sight of it, so his nose almost went in circles. It was great watching this white tail, so handsome and elegant. Monti always barks hysterically when we se wildlife so this was pretty fun. Hunting dog Monti 😀
Going through the blog last night and realize how much Monti has grown and many of his previous problems like stomach allergies are gone. They where not allergies at all but stress from being all male. Going on walks now is like a dream compared to a few weeks ago. He even was att the dog park! A little bichon frisé wanted to play but monti was all about the sticks, and that tire from last post.
I swear he is like a old man in a dog suit!

He answered to the question: "was it Your idea to take money from the private deposits of the Cypriots?" (my translation)
No it was the position of the Bundesregierung and the IMF that the major part of the funds needed to stabilize the banks should be taken from the owners and creditors, those are the investors, of the banks. But of course we would have honoured the desposit insurance of up to 100,000 €. But those who did not want a bail in, the Cyprus government, the European Commission and the ECB chose this solution and now they have to explain it to the Cypriot people.Yes if you have a deposit at a bank you are now an investor in the eyes of the German government it is your own fault that you trusted in the deposit insurance and Germany also pledges to uphold the law IF everybody does as we say. He then said, that to reach the needed amount he wanted to achieve a large base to not overburden the rich, so he might not have been the one who came up with the tax but he was deeply involved in how the plan was carried out.
The Merkel government has a bad habit of using language not to explain something but to defend the indefensible. They use words that sound similar to something which was proposed but mean something toally different. Thursday last week a bank customer was not an investor. The finance minister changed that now. It is extremely annoying that one has to listen to every word exactly because the phrases used just don't mean what one thinks when listening for the first time. The interviewer helped by asking the wrong question. Who cares if it was Schäuble's idea. What matters is was this a plan that the German government proposed? I think it was.
Schäuble was very much against a "rescue" of Cyprus less than two months ago. Both the coalition and the oposition parties wanted to punish the depositors, since they feared the backlash of the German voters in case that "Russian oligarchs" would be bailed out. So the minister basically did not explain a thing. He just blames Cyprus for choosing the pest over cholera. Even if it wasn't the Merkel government who pushed for this plan, which I find unlikey, we are at least in part responsible for the outcome. We could have just said that the deposit insurance has to be honoured. We didn't.
Just a reminder, due to the way the ESM is set up Germany can veto any bail-out decision. At least 80 % of the votes are necessary for such a move and Germany controls 27 %. If we actually wanted to, we could have forced the protection of deposits up to 100.000 €.
How is a "bail-in" different from a deposit tax? Not very. Goldman is not sure if the action in Cyprus wasn't also the former. "Bail-in" describes using deposits to finance the banks, by forcing the bank customers into bank ownership. So instead of just outright losing money, the happy new investors would have had shares of a broken financial system. An actual journalist would have asked the finance minister why "out" was chosen over "in". Instead German state TV just accepted that some one else is to blame. Also the interviewer did not even ask what the exact plan was that Schäuble claimed to favor. German Quality Journalism For The WIN.
What Schäuble also does not seem to understand is that no matter how the Cypriot parliament votes the banks will be insolvent. Once the confidence in the banks is destroyed it cannot be fixed easily, so
It's as if the Europeans are holding up a neon sign, written in Greek and Italian, saying "time to stage a run on your banks!"
I am looking forward to what the ECB has to say. In the end no one will be responsible. The deposit tax just happened. Every body wanted to uphold the law but other entities didn't. Sometimes I think they come up with "plans" by playing a drinking game and the proposal of the "winner" has to be accepted. That also explains why no one remembers his own involvement in bad solutions.

First up, congratulations to HNK Auckland for making it 10 out of 10 and securing promotion to the Championship. I'm sure there will be a number of teams looking forward to hosting them next season, assuming they're still in that division. United FC this year, much like Auckland Wanderers last year and many other teams before them, have shown that the step up is not too great between League 1 and the Championship. KTB's chances of back to back promotions took a bit of a hit at the weekend however, but I'm sure that they will still be there or thereabouts come the end of the season and they will get the opportunity to test themselves against a Premiership team this weekend in the Quarter-Finals of the Cup. I'm sure the Inter boys will be not be expecting an easy ride into the Semis!
In the Premiership, Inter warmed up for this weekends cup game with an impressive 4-2 away win at third placed Auckland Volcanoes, whilst many people's favourite for the title, Auckland Wanderers experienced their first league defeat of the season (and possibly ever???) at the hands of Bohemian Celtic's. Wanderer's shock 5-0 defeat keeps them 3 points behind leaders Zamantix Rovers, who had their game against Indy postponed, and level on points with Volcanoes. At least they get to return to Bill McKinley this week for a cup match against Boh's Celtic 2, who had the BYE.
In the Championship, AUT FC were able to capitalise on KTB's post-Lions Test hangover(s), to take the 3 points in what was arguably the first 6 pointer of the season. KTB came back from 3-0 down to make it 3-3, but AUT scored again to secure a 4-3 win that puts them in second place, 3 points above their opponents. Above them, United FC proved too strong for the University of Auckland, winning 3-1 and maintaining their 4 point cushion at the top. I am looking forward to seeing how they go against Premiership leaders in the Cup Quarter-Final this weekend. Khukuri moved above the UoA into 4th place following their 2-0 win over Kingsland, whilst the battle of the bottom two (SudAmerica vs City Fringe) finished 3-3, meaning neither side were able to move out of the relegation spots at Kingsland's expense.
In League 1, HNK won 4-1 away to Nixon Park to maintain their 9 point lead at the top and guarantee that they will be playing six new teams next season. Second-placed Auckland Wanderers 2 were beaten 3-2 by fourth-placed Dalian, allowing third-placed Zamantix Rovers Return the opportunity to close the gap on the promotion places. They accepted this, beating Kamarak 3-1. AUT FC 2 continue to get stronger each week and were able to move out of the relegation places for the first time this season, following their 5-3 win over the UoA FC reserves at Taharoto Park.
In League 2, the match of the day saw leaders Viti lose their 100% record at the hands of second-placed Double Rum Greenhithe, in a six-goal 3-3 thriller. the draw allowed both U-Striker and Zamantix Force to close the gap to the promotion places to a single point, following their away wins over Auckland Unicorns (3-1) and Aotea Sport Eastern (8-2) respectively. Massey recorded their best result of the season, beating bottom-placed All Red 7-0 to effectively cancel out the 7 points that they have been stripped this season. they now have zero points despite recording 2 wins and a draw on the field.
in the Masters league, the Old Fellas have a 6 point advantage at the top of the table after a 1-0 win over Serious FC, whilst Second-placed Waiheke Old Fullas returned from their day trip to Pukekohe with a 5-0 win and 3 more points to their name. Zamantix Old Boys secured a narrow 3-2 away win against Greenhithe City to ensure they remain joint second.
Good luck to everyone involved in Cup and Plate action this Sunday, especially those playing teams from the leagues above. Old Fellas (1st, Masters) have arguably the toughest task ahead when they host Auckland Wanderers 2 (2nd, League 1), but they have plenty of age and experience to rely on!

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday announced the state government will hold talks with "all major political parties" on August 29 in a bid to restore peace and normalcy in the agitation-hit north West Bengal hills.
Banerjee said the president of the central committee of the Gorkha National Liberation Front (GNLF) has written to the state government, asking for a high-level intervention to end the present crisis in the Hill areas of Darjeeling" and has "humbly requested for talks to restore peace and normalcy in the Hills".
The Trinamool Congress supremo said the state government has decided to "respond positively to the request".
Not only the GNLF but "all major political parties will be called" on August 29 at state secretariat Nabanna at 4 p.m., she said.
"Representatives of the development boards will also be called to the meeting. I have said it earlier as well that those who are in favour of restoration of normalcy, government is ready to talk with them anytime. This (request for dialogue from GNLF) is a constructive and positive indication. Since GNLF is a very old party and they have sent the first request... we are responding.
"Those who think on the same lines as the GNLF, we can invite those parties also," Banerjee said, adding normalcy is gradually being restored in the hills.
The Darjeeling hills have been on the boil for over two months with an indefinite shutdown called by the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha continuing since June 12 to press for a separate state of Gorkhaland.
Two explosions rocked Darjeeling and Kalimpong last week, within a span of 24 hours, killing one civic volunteer and injuring two others.

Fred Wesley (born July 4, 1943) is an American jazz and funk trombonist, best known for his work with James Brown in the 1960s and 1970s, as well as Parliament-Funkadelic in the second half of the 1970s.
Wesley was born the son of a high school teacher and big band leader in Columbus, Georgia, and raised in Mobile, Alabama. As a child he took piano and later trumpet lessons. He played baritone horn and trombone in school, and at around age 12 his father brought a trombone home, whereupon he switched (eventually permanently) to trombone.
During the 1960s and 1970s he was a pivotal member of James Brown's bands, playing on many hit recordings including "Say it Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud," "Mother Popcorn" and co-writing tunes such as "Hot Pants." His slippery riffs and pungent, precise solos, complementing those of saxophonist Maceo Parker, gave Brown's R&B, soul, and funk tunes their instrumental punch. In the 1970s he also served as band leader and musical director of Brown's band the J.B.'s and did much of the composing and arranging for the group. His name was credited on 'Fred Wesley & the J.B.'s' recording of "Doing It to Death," which sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc by the R.I.A.A. in July 1973. He left Brown's band in 1975 and spent several years playing with George Clinton's various Parliament-Funkadelic projects, even recording a couple of albums as the leader of a spin-off group, The Horny Horns.
Wesley became a force in jazz in 1978 when he joined the Count Basie Orchestra. He released his first jazz album as a leader, To Someone in 1988. It was followed by New Friends in 1990, Comme Ci Comme Ca in 1991, the live album Swing and Be Funky, and Amalgamation in 1994.
In the early 1990s Wesley toured with his colleagues from the James Brown band, Pee Wee Ellis and Maceo Parker, as the JB Horns. With the departure of Ellis the band became The Maceo Parker Band. Wesley was featured trombonist with Parker until 1996 when he formed his own band, The Fred Wesley Group, now known as Fred Wesley and the New JBs.
Wesley's 35-year career includes playing with and arranging for a wide variety of other artists including Ray Charles, Lionel Hampton, Randy Crawford, Vanessa Williams, The SOS Band, Cameo, Van Morrison, Socalled and rappers De La Soul, to name a few. Many other artists have sampled his work.
In 2002 Wesley wrote Hit Me, Fred: Recollections of a Sideman, an autobiography about his life as a sideman. Also in 2002 he recorded an album entitled Wuda Cuda Shuda.
Wesley served as an adjunct professor in the Jazz Studies department of the School of Music at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro from 2004 to 2006, and now works with students as a visiting artist at numerous other schools including Berklee College of Music and Columbia College of Chicago. In addition to performing with his own band, he is currently touring as part of a collaboration called Abraham Inc. along with Klezmer artist David Krakauer and Klezmer/hip-hop artist Socalled.
In 2007, Wesley accepted an invitation to contribute to Goin' Home: A Tribute to Fats Domino (Vanguard). He participated with Lenny Kravitz, the Rebirth Brass Band, Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews, Pee Wee Ellis and Maceo Parker to contribute their version of Domino's "Whole Lotta Lovin'."
In 2010, Wesley contributed to Kings (Freestyle Records), the fourth album by Israeli funk and groove ensemble, The Apples. Specific sessions on the album were dedicated to working with Wesley, one of the group's heroes.

Various Benefits Offered by Lace Wigs
The present life has been filled with various kinds of pressures. These pressure situations would play havoc with the internal system. It would be pertinent to mention here that one of the drawbacks of living a stressful life would be suffering from hair loss. It would not be wrong to state that men would take baldness in good spirit. However, when it comes to women, they may not take it lightly. Apparently, they cannot go bald and shave their heads, as some men would opt in case of losing excessive hair. It may not be the greatest of all fashion statement for women. The best solution to hide baldness would be usage of wigs. Full Lace Wigs and lace front wigs have been popular with popular products with women.
Selecting from two kinds of wigs
Not all women would be able to make good use of front lace wigs, as they may require full lace wig. Therefore, they should surf the online realm for the best product to suit their specific needs. Among the several kinds of wigs available in the market, you should search for the one suitable to your needs. When it comes to wigs, there would be two kinds of wigs available in the store. The most popular would be human hair lace wigs and the other would be synthetic material wigs. The major difference between the two would be the natural effect human hair lace wigs would offer as compared to the synthetic wigs. Therefore, you should search for natural hair lace wigs online.
Benefits offered by full lace wigs
The full lace wigs would be offering a world of benefits to the wearer. Some of the benefits offered by the full lace wigs have been mentioned below.
Hiding your baldness
The major benefit that full lace wigs would provide to the women is hiding their baldness. It does not matter whether you would be suffering from receding hairline or you have complete baldness, a number of wigs have been made available for every problem. You would be required to make use of the right kind of wig to make your head appear full with hair. It would be pertinent to mention here that lace fronts would be best for women who wish to hide their receding hairline. On the other hand, the full lace wigs would be for women who have gone bald at the top or at the back.
Provides a natural look
The contemporary lace wigs would be ideal for women to sport a natural look despite suffering from bald spots or complete baldness. These wigs have been made from natural hair. As a result, they would provide natural appearance to the wearer. It would be pertinent to mention here that you could also dye these laces to match the colour of your natural hair. They would blend with the natural hair in a manner making it difficult to distinguish between the two.
Durable natural laces
Yet another benefit offered by lace wigs would be its durability. Both front lace wigs and full lace wigs would offer durability to last a significant length of time. In case, you have been maintaining them in the best manner possible, they would last from six months to a year. However, it would be pertinent to mention here that you should invest in purchasing the best wigs from a reliable and reputed store. They would be able to serve you decently well for times to come.
Benefits in terms of price
It may sound peculiar, but lace wigs would help you save significant money on monthly basis. You would be visiting the salon every month for your hairstyle and baldness covering needs. Apparently, you would be spending a considerable amount every month despite the hair growth. On the other hand, a lace wig would cost you a significantly lower price. You would be able to make the most of the wigs for a length of time, which makes more sense.
Sporting different hairstyles
The best feature of lace wigs would be sporting different hairstyles for different occasions. You would be able to match the needs of different occasion and match your dress or style with different kinds of lace wig.

It's Friday, and Shelley Winters is craving red meat. Lying on a daybed in the cluttered living room of her Spanish-style Beverly Hills duplex, the 72-year-old two-time Oscar winner is chatting on the phone. "I'm sorry about last night," she purrs to an anonymous friend. "Wanna come over for lamb chops?"
Then comes the kvetching. "I'm just soooo tired," she moans after hanging up the phone. She is lounging in a bright red, blue and green muumuu and wears no makeup. "I used to be able to work all day and dance all night," she says with a sigh. But those days are now just a tarnished piece of celluloid. "Everyone retires except me."
Winters may dream of retiring, but the actress remains indefatigable when it comes to her work. In the space of a few months, she will have appeared in three independent features: "Jury Duty," a sendup of the American judicial system, with Pauly Shore (which opens Wednesday); "Heavy," which premiered at Sundance in February and co-stars Liv Tyler; and "Firehouse," a sendup of "Backdraft" that also stars Debbie Harry. Winters also has a recurring role on "Roseanne" as Roseanne's grandmother and is organizing, with Martin Landau and directors Sydney Pollack and Mark Rydell, a series of seminars benefiting the Actors Studio. She is also at work on the third installment of her memoirs.

Up before sunrise, reading, researching how to do the right thing.
Mailing, reaching out, connecting.
There's a beautiful light sliding over the horizon, Blues, become
Purples, Reds become mustard Yellows. I lean out the window
trying to capture them, mail them to Los Angeles. Turns out the
phone isn't camera enough to capture the magic of the moment,
though it fakes being my friend it can't even record what a cheap
plastic film 35mm could back in the 90's. Looks nice, but too fake
to do real life justice.

How to Guide for Surfing, Snowboarding and Skateboarding
of the Beach
Protecting Oceans, Waves and Beaches since 1984
how to guide and fundamentals of Surfing
Surfing is a surface water sport
in which the wave rider, referred to as a surfer, rides
on the forward or deep face of a moving wave, which
is usually carrying the surfer towards the shore. Waves
suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean,
but can also be found in lakes or in rivers in the form
of a standing wave or tidal bore. However, surfers can
also utilize man-made waves such as those from boat
wakes and the waves created in artificial wave pools.
The term surfing refers to the act of riding a wave,
regardless of whether the wave is ridden with a board
or without a board, and regardless of the stance used
(goofy or regular stance). The native peoples of the
Pacific, for instance, surfed waves on alaia, paipo,
and other such craft, and did so on their bellies and
knees. The modern-day definition of surfing, however,
most often refers to a surfer riding a wave standing
up on a surfboard; this is also referred to as stand-up
Never "Drop-In" Front
of Anyone Not Only It's Rude It is also Unsafe!
Dropping in on someone is when you
get in the way of the surfer on the main "peak"
of the wave. If a surfer is coming towards you, and
you are on the "shoulder", you can ruin a
wave for both you and the surfer, and is very dangerous
and costly. This happens all the time, but mostly on
accident. One simple thing to prevent this is to look
for the surfers around you.
A great
surfing experience is when you are able to ride at least
One really "killer" wave, Two really "Great"
waves and three or more "OK" waves with in
a 90 minute time period with no conflicts or injuries
Waves tend to show every minute but
good one show up every five minutes and twenty to forty
five minutes for the the better ones; so it can be hard
to share the good waves that you can enjoy.
If you are a beginner you should
consider a few things before paddling out.
Is there a lot of surfers out?
You should learn as far away as possible from others.
How are the conditions, and the surroundings?
Pay attention to rip-tides and other Hazards.
Is there a lifeguard nearby?
It is highly recommend to learn as close to a lifeguard
Tower as possible

How To Sleep With Anxiety
One of the most frustrating things about anxiety is difficulty getting to sleep. More so, the trouble falling asleep with worry and doubt. Tossing and turning while your thoughts seem to constantly poke at your brain, disturbing the rest you so desperately need.
While this may be difficult to believe, it can be overcome. Below, you will see how Dr. McDonagh helps sufferers get a better nights rest by helping to relieve panic and anxiety through his Panic Away course. It has helped many not only get better sleep, but to free their lives of the churning thoughts that keep them from living a normal life. And he can help you too.

This has nothing to do with advertising.
A copywriter sent it to me, so I guess in that sense it does. Fred Guthrie (firstname.lastname@example.com) came across this cool little amateur Rube Goldberg-kind-of-thing. God only knows where.
Take a minute. Enjoy.

Even if my grandfather wasn't from Scotland, I'd like this.
So this week's winner of "Best Use of a Telephone Pole" goes to Hangar 18 Creative Group of Vancouver, B.C.
Tuesday, September 25, 2007
This sucks. Go with it.
According to Ad Age Today, that awful "HeadOn" commercial that we've all seen and groaned about is clearly one of the "worst commercials ever from a creative standpoint." Jay Leno and John Stewart have both mocked it on the air and NBC News called it the "most annoying ad on television".
Brace yourself.
Since they started running the spot, HeadOne sales have skyrocketed. We're talking a 234% increase in 2006 from 2005 and already this year (September), they have nearly equaled 2006 sales. What the Hell does this tell us?
The VP of sales at Miralus, who owns HeadOn, says they are more interested in brand awareness than winning creative awards.
No kidding.
But it's hard to deny their success. So what does that mean for those of us who believe that creativity sells? Those of us who spend our days looking for the different creative approach that we think will cut through the ad clutter for our clients?
I don't know. I know that Miralus spends just $15 million a year on measured media – which is a drop in the bucket for a national brand. Much less than brands that have lost sales.
I also know this. Whether the creative is good or whether it's garbage, whether it wins an award or doesn't, whether the creative director is proud of it or embarrassed by it, the goal remains the same. To sell stuff (and by "stuff", I mean things, services, ideas, positions – all of it). That's something people in our business sometimes forget in the push for creativity.
If any of you reading this are clients and you're going to hold this up to your agencies as a justification for bad creative, don't. One reason I think HeadOn has worked so far is because it is just so awful it stands out. Everything can't be the worst. So in the spirit of Harvey Keitel's famous line in "Pulp Fiction" let's not all start shooting for bad creative. Besides, fame is fleeting.
Nobody values or believes in creativity as a practical business tool more than I do. Creativity and advertising effectiveness certainly go together in my book. But maybe it sometimes takes crap like HeadOn to remind us that the Point of The Exercise is, after all, to sell stuff. And I do know that sometimes creative folk let their ideas get away from them.
A few years ago, Karen and I were at a presentation Dan Wieden of Wieden + Kennedy made at the
Clearly Dan took offense and in a tone of voice that was equal parts condescending and angry told me that "It's not about selling beer, young man . . . "
But I was put properly enough in my place that I didn't challenge him on it. I just sank down in my seat as all the
And then again, there's HeadOn. An absolute joke of creativity that just happens to be pretty damned effective. Much more effective than "Dick."
Which I never liked anyway.

No, bookmark this site. It's "I have an Idea", a wonderful creative site with profiles, interviews and lots and lots of good work to inspire you. You have to register, but it's free and way past worth it.

But here we go anyway.
Today's e-mail brings an invitation to the DC Ad Club's "Sports Nite" networking event at Nellie's, a hot new DC sports bar. At a cool $60 for members and $70 for non-members.
Are you kidding me? I'm an Ad Club member, but my wife and business partner Karen is not. So that's $130 for the two of us to go have drinks and snacks at a bar for two hours.
Last I looked, $130 buys a pretty nice night out for two. Dinner, tickets to the National Symphony, a show at The National – you can even get into Caps games for that.
Isn't the idea is to bring people together and to encourage participation in the Ad Club and the ad community? I believe it is – and should be. So why make it so expensive? $60 for two hours of networking?
The people who will typically be able to participate in events like this will be people for whom the fee is paid by their company (who can deduct part of it as a business expense) or who have the discretionary income that they can blow some of it on an Ad Club event. For the most part, that leaves out the junior and entry-level people, especially those at smaller agencies. And these are the people who have the future of our ad community in their hands. Not just the agency owners and senior players at the larger agencies.
If the goal is to grow the advertising community in

We all make mistakes
Concept, design, approval – there are a lot of fingerprints on this one, and they all ought to be ashamed. You'd think that at least the sales rep might have pointed out that nobody can read the damn thing.

The Fabulous Trunk Monkey
I've embedded my favorite one here (actually, it was the first of the series), but go to YouTube and search "trunk money" or go directly to TrunkMonkey.com and see them all. Either way, sit back and enjoy some truly inspired advertising.

Allrighty then . . . .
Found this on Adrants.
I understand it a little better after reading the headline.
I think.
What did you just call me?
The basic creative "team" is an art director and a copywriter. Read that again: An (insert a flourish here) "art director" and a (drop your voice down and mumble) "copywriter". Don't you think that, as the people in charge of the words, copywriters could have come up with something better for ourselves?
Like "word wrangler" or "copy stud" or maybe even "redacteur publictaire". Yeah, that's the ticket. If I could pronounce it, that would probably have a nice ring to it.

BOSTON (Reuters) - Fidelity Investments said Tuesday Abigail Johnson was promoted to run all of the company's main businesses, the strongest signal yet that she could be the next leader of the mutual fund powerhouse founded by her grandfather.
Abigail Johnson, 50, will continue to report to her 82-year-old father, Edward C. Johnson III, Boston-based Fidelity's chairman and chief executive since taking over from his father in 1977.
The promotion likely means Abigail Johnson will eventually replace her father as Fidelity's chairman, ending years of speculation about who would run the firm next, said John Bonnanzio, who edits a newsletter for Fidelity investors. Bonnanzio said he was only surprised she had not been given more responsibilities already.
With $1.58 trillion of assets, Fidelity is the second-largest U.S. mutual fund company, behind only Vanguard Group, and one of the world's biggest money managers. But some of the firm's signature funds, like the Magellan Fund once run by Peter Lynch, have fallen on hard times. Fidelity customers have withdrawn more money than they have added over the past few years.
Johnson's appointment comes as Fidelity faces stiff competition, investors' lack of confidence in the stock market as well as the emergence of low-cost, index-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Even if the global economy was more stable, Abigail Johnson still would face a significant challenge expanding a company the size of Fidelity, according to Jim Lowell, chief investment officer of Adviser Investments, which has $2.4 billion mostly invested in Fidelity and Vanguard mutual funds.
"It's a fairly hostile environment," Lowell said. "There are product issues. Fidelity is still trying to figure out how to get market share with ETFs without getting into a price war."
Lowell said Johnson is up to the task: "She's well schooled in every spoke of Fidelity's wheel."
In 2011, Fidelity's customer outflows - including funds and managed products - totaled $36.2 billion, largely driven by $46.1 billion in equity outflows and $16.1 billion in money market outflows.
As president of Fidelity Financial Services, Abigail Johnson will oversee all of the firm's major businesses including asset management, retail and institutional brokers and retirement and benefit services.
She had been overseeing only Fidelity's personal, workplace and institutional services organization, which includes the retail and institutional brokerage divisions, as well as retirement and benefits services.
The latest move means that Ronald O'Hanley, who oversaw all asset management and corporate services and reported directly to Edward Johnson, will now report to Abigail Johnson.
Edward Johnson has no plans to step down as chairman and CEO, Fidelity spokeswoman Anne Crowley said. "But there's no question this a broader role for Abby."
In April, during a rare public appearance, the elder Johnson appeared frail when he and his family accepted congratulations during their induction into the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce's Academy of Distinguished Bostonians.
During her 24-year career at Fidelity, Abigail Johnson has continued to gain important assignments, though it has not always been a direct path to the top.
Johnson, who had worked summers at her family's firm before college, graduated from Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, New York, with a degree in art history. She worked for two years after graduation at consulting firm Booz Allen where she met her husband, Christopher McKown.
Abigail Johnson then obtained an MBA from Harvard Business School before joining Fidelity as an analyst in 1988. In the 1990s, she ran three different stock funds before moving into management. In 2001, she was named president of the fund division and in 2005 she switched jobs to take charge of Fidelity's benefits and retirement plans unit.
Some outside Fidelity saw the 2005 shift as her demotion away from the firm's core strength in mutual funds. The perception only grew later that year when the family altered ownership stakes in the firm and shifted some of Abigail Johnson's holdings to family trusts. Fidelity is controlled by the Johnson family along with outside shareholders, mainly employees of the firm.
At the Boston Chamber of Commerce event in April, Abigail Johnson recounted how her training in learning the family business first began in the 1970s at the family dinner table.
"The telephone would ring and someone would leap to get it," Abigail Johnson said at the occasion. "The call would invariably be for my father."
From her seat at the dinner table, she said she would listen to how her father handled a customer's issue.

"Hi, people!" Blaize called out, "meet Dennis and Darcy, brothers who are really good singers and they play several instruments. With them, we have an equal male female balance, and no matter how noisy the party is, we will still be heard!" He laughed and moved on in, followed by the two newcomers. Soon they were all set and rehearsal began.
"Let's try It's Hallowe'en," Vanessa said. They played a short introduction and then they all sang. (me singing a bit) with Vanessa singing solo on the sister Jane part. When they finished they all broke up laughing, and complimenting each other on how well it had gone.
"Now" Barry said, "if we can get the rest down as well as that one, we will wow them at the party. We may even earn a bonus!" They all agreed, and the rehearsal went on.
Three hours passed and they stopped for the night. "I am really happy with our progress," Valarie said. "With two weeks still to go, we should have all of the pieces as nearly perfect as man or woman can get."
Can we run through Ring Around a Rosy one more. Please? I'd like to sing it just once more. I'm not completely satisfied, and maybe once more will do it." Velma said
The others willingly settled down and they went through it again. (me singing)
"Ring around the rosie,
Pocket full of posie,
"Ashes, Ashes,
We all fall down."
"Velma, there is no way you can improve on that!" Dennis exclaimed. "I have never heard it done creepier. But what in the heck is it about?"
In the 13th century, the Black Death (also called the Black Plague) killed so many people, many thought it was the end of the world. The nursery rhyme "Ring around the Rosie" came about during the time of the Black Death.
Here are what the lyrics mean:
Ring around the rosie is a reference to the black sores that would appear on your body as part of the plague. Your "rosie" is around the center of the back of your hand.
A pocket full of posies is a reference to people would carrying posies (flowers) around to not smell the sickening scent of dead bodies everywhere.
Ashes Ashes signifies the ashes from all the bodies being burned on pyres. Bodies couldn't be buried or else the infection would spread.
We all fall down signifies death or people falling down to hell because of their harsh and cruel ways.
"The second comes from Snopes – 'The earliest print version was in Kate Greeaway's "Mother Goose or The Old Nursery Rhymes" of 1881. Since folklorists had been collecting and putting into print bits and pieces of oral tradition such as Nursery Rhymes and Fairy Tales for hundreds of years, some version of Ring around the Rosie should have been in print before 1881. But in a span of five hundred years, no one had done so. If it had been from the 1347 plague it would be older than Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and there we would have examples in Middle English and Modern English forms.'
"But the Plague explanation is much more in keeping with Hallowe'en, so I vote for it!" Benji laughed, holding his hand up.
There was agreement all around as they gathered instruments, jackets and such, and headed out into the chilly night. Vanessa turned off the lights and locked the door. "That was a great rehearsal!" she said to Valarie, who agreed. "The addition of the seven guys really makes us sound great." They turned to follow the others to the sidewalk, and wave them goodnight.
"Maybe we can stay together as a band after the gig. It does sound good, and it's more fun having guys around." Valarie giggled. "Lots more fun"

When you set a Sender Email, it is the email address that is being used to send notification email.
So for example, you have set your email address to be the sender email, that will be the one who will appear in the "from" email address of the notification email that you will receive, or if you set that you also want your user to receive the notification, they will receive the email from the "sender email".
But we usually suggest that you set the Sender email to email@example.com to avoid any problems receiving the email. However, you can use your email address, but you just need to verify it.
I hope this explains and enlightened you a bit about Sender Email.

Of course no Sushi meal is complete without Edamame, Saparo Beer for Bob and Green Tea for me! (Sorry it is a little blurry!)
Here is a close up of some of the sushi... California Rolls and Spicy Tuna!!
Our Boys always love sushi... we usually only eat imitation crab, tuna and shrimp at home,so they can dig right in with us! They still have the trainer on their chop sticks, but they do very well with them:
I wanted to do something fun for Jakob and Aiden and I came across this idea for Twinkie Sushi! You cut twinkies into slices, wrap each slice in a fruit by the foot, and stick a gummy bear in the cream! They look like sushi and they were actually really good!! SO CUTE!
Weekend Fun!
