- As an audience member, losing yourself in someone else's story.
- As a director, watching scared auditioners turn into superstars 6 weeks later.
- Becoming skilled at poker faces when you can't react in the moment to strange situations.
- The ability to completely tune out of situations by going somewhere else in your brain.
- The exhilaration of curtain calls whether your bowing or applauding.
- Finding generic things to comment on when you've witnessed people you love in horrid productions.
- When listening to music, staging it in your head.
- Noticing artistic elements of stage and movies that are tribute to connoisseurs. I can often be found saying "oh NIIIICE back-lighting, there."
I could go on and on about the pros of having an artistic background and majoring in theatre in college and loving music and dance and being truly grateful that I grew up in an artistic family yada yada yada.
Only recently, have I noticed the cons of being this type of personality. Through a series of very strange events, I have noticed just how much I plan events in my mind. I tend to 'stage' different scenarios or rehearse reactions so that I am prepared for what may come at me. I'm sure it stems from my 'control-freak' problem that I want to be prepared for any possible outcome. The problem is, here in Moldova, and probably mostly everywhere, it's pretty rare that you can predict an outcome or more to the point, predict others actions or reactions. To top all that off, I can't be as eloquent with my words in Russian so even though in my head I sound like Jon Stewart sounding off against Fox and Friends, I wind up sounding like a 4 year old trying to negotiate an extra cookie. It's exhausting. And I am always disappointed, rarely pleasantly surprised. Because I have inadvertently created a series of un-meetable expectations and unless I have an untapped psychic ability, it just isn't going to happen. It's so easy to say 'relax...whatever will be will be' and yet in the moment, you really want to be prepared. I want to have to cool one liner that is delivered like in a perfect theatrical moment that leaves the audience oohing and aahing. But, I can't. Because I'm not living off an Aaron Sorkin script here, unfortunately, I am stuck in reality. I'm in a constant state of improv, every actor's nightmare. I stopped being an actor in the late 90's and transformed into a director. Every director is a control freak, they have to be to get anything done. And that somehow transfers into real life. I'm not sure when it happened, but it did. I went from being an easy going actor into an OCD riddled control freak. Life here is anything but in control. There is an entire gamut of emotions in play every single day and it is emotionally exhausting.
And now I'm caught in the middle of a long stream of consciousness about diagnosing this problem...how do I get out of it? The condition and the stream? These are just late night revelations that come to me as I can't sleep. Things I do know? I miss my family and hope they're all okay during this crappy storm that has hit the Eastern seaborne. And even though some of my friends here have really disappointed me here in the last week or so, I am truly grateful for the lessons I have learned. They are certainly ones I will never forget.

Ian Southworth is the new J/24 World Champion!
Boltenhagen, 4th September 2015: The Brits did it! Ian Southworth and his crew kept their cool and sailed home an amazing start-to-finish win in the final race of the J/24 worlds in Boltenhagen, Germany. US-guy Mike Ingham, who was very close, finally had to let the prestigious trophy go to Southworth and his crew from the Solent.
As on Thursday, racing was started with a Black Flag after Principal Race Officer Klaus Lahme did a general recall. Southworth, who had already suffered a Black flag disqualification on Thursday, opted for a conservative start, as he couldn´t afford to let opponent Mike Ingham get away or – or even worse – let himself get pushed over the line.
Chris McLaughlin, who sails on board of Ian Southworth´s "Il Riccio", said: "Our worst fear was to have a Black flag start again, but we were relieved to get a good start and to find ourselves first at the windward mark through some very difficult shifts arriving."
Southworth and his Crew have been sailing "Il Riccio" for five years now. "It has been the longest quick campaign of our lives", said Chris McLaughlin. "We used to race J/24 in the 80s and in the early 90ties quite successfully, so in 2005 we thought we could just step on the boat and win the J/24 World Championship in Weymouth". The crew finished eighth – "that was very hard" - and since then has constantly been working on speed, performance and sailing skills. "We have virtually rebuilt Il Riccio from the keel to the mast top", said Chris McLaughlin. At some World Championships like in Howth, Ireland, and in Cannigione, Italy, the crew was very close to the trophy, but narrowly lost in the end.
"The thing we have learnt is that if you are not enjoying yourselves, you will never succeed", said McLaughlin. "We have a team that is very close to each other, who has fun along the way, no matter if we win or lose. There were times in the middle of this week when I became very nervous and tense, and the rest of them laughed my out of it and made me have a glass of wine, and I felt a lot better the next day."
The "Il Riccio" team consists of helmsman Ian Southworth, pit man Andrew McLelland, bow woman Julia Scott, genoa trimmer Chris McLaughlin and tactician David Howlett, who is the head coach of the German Olympic team. Mc Laughlin again: "I have known David since I was 18 years and it has been fantastic to sail with a friend who is also such an incredible coach. David is a very special person, and also very demanding. We have not been drinking this week, we have not been partying, and we have eaten a lot of cake and tea in the afternoon because David has high standards. I think if the German Olympic team has the same experience as we have had, I think they should be winning some medals in Rio."
Andrew McLelland has been a J/24 European Champion in the past. "He is a competent helmsman and brilliant cockpit guy", said Chris McLaughlin. But, according to the guys, the most important part of the team is bow woman Julia Scott. Julia is a former 470 and Yngling Olympian. "Despite of being a brilliant sailor, Julia makes sure that everyone is nice to each other. She is the boss! And she is incredibly tough. When we sailed the worlds in Weymouth in 2010, Julia had just given birth to her first kid one week before. I think there haven´t been many J/24 who have measured in a breast pump at an international competition!"
Mike Ingham from Rochester, USA, who was sailing with the 2014 J/24 World Champion, Will Welles, as a tactician, couldn´t cover Ian Southworth in the last race and finished in eighth position. With 26 points of difference, he and his crew became vice champions of the J/24 worlds. With Travis Odenbach, The third also comes from Rochester, USA.
Competition was tight for the title of the best female crew. In the end, Stefanie Köpcke and her team "Vega Ragazza" won, closely followed by Ragna Thönnessen and team "Juelssand", with just one point separating the teams. "Vega Ragazza" have sailed a very good series this year, crowned by the title of the German Champion 2015.
Javier Arribas Harten from Perú won the trophy for the best Crew under 25. Arribas Harten, by the way, is a former Bronze Medalist in the Optimist class.
Best German boat is Team "Tinto" from Hamburg, helmed by Till Pomarius. Tinto, a mixed crew with an average age of less than 25, took the honours from older and more experienced crews such as team Rotoman or Süllberg. "Our next goal are the worlds 2016 in Japan", said Genoa Trimmer Bele Schuett.
Tonight, the Worlds end with a closing ceremony in the Marina of Boltenhagen. After a week with exciting racing and good after Sails fun, time has come for the crews to face workaday life again – or, as Chris McLaughlin said: "I will put my tie and suit on, I will get my hair cut on lunch time and go back to be pretending to be an executive."
(Boltenhagen, 1st September 2015) Conditions were challenging on day 2 of the J/24 World Championships in Boltenhagen, Germany: Winds of up to 20 knots with huge 20 to 30 degree shifts caused some big changes on the leader board. Ian Southworth (GBR 5219) and his seasoned crew sailed two excellent races and took the lead, followed by Mike Ingham (USA 5443) and Pietro Diamanti (ITA 212)
On day two of the J/24 worlds, Boltenhagen on the Baltic coast once again proved to be a very tricky sailing area. "We are racing in a closed bay which makes things very difficult", said Chris McLaughlin, crew member on the leading boat "Il Riccio"; "as the race course is close inshore, the tree lines make challenging 20 to 30 degrees shifts. The skill is to judge exactly when you need to tack."
In the first race of the day, the fleet faced easterly winds up to 20 knots which is the critical limit between too much wind for the genoa and too little wind for the jib. With a first place and a second place, Ian Southworth and his crew delivered a very constant performance. Southworth, who has been racing with the same crew the last 10 years, has a team of very skilled sailors including tactician David Howlett, who is also head coach of the German Olympic team.
Southworth already has an impressive lead of 22 points over second-placed Mike Ingham who has the same number of points as third-placed Pietro Diamanti.
"Tomorrow will be even tougher," said Chris McLaughlin; "In the J/24 class, there is nothing worse than getting excited about a good position. We have to stay cool and keep performing constantly. You just need one disqualification, and one of the other guys will get you." Asked for his strongest competition, Mc Loughlin mentioned Mike Ingham (USA), Pietro Diamanti (ITA) and Travis Odenbach (USA), but also the Greek Iasonas Spanomalis who was sailing very fast on the course.
From a German point of view, Stefan Karsunke from Hamburg did an excellent job today. With a third and a sixth place, he and his crew are in fifth position overall. Stefan Karsunke is also a very experienced helmsman who has been racing J/24 for more than 15 years. Frank Schönfeldt, one of host nation's top sailors, had some bad luck today when his rudder broke before the first start, and is currently in 27th position.
On Wednesday, the wind is expected to pick up even more, so racing will stay exciting. All races can be followed on the live tracker of the event partner TracTrac.
(Boltenhagen, 2th September 2015) On day 3 of the J/24 World Championships in Boltenhagen, Germany, the fleet faced wind up to 20 knots. It was again Ian Southworth (GBR 5219) who sailed two excellent races and kept his lead on the second-placed Mike Ingham (USA 5443). But also Travis Odenbach (USA 5432) has entered the stage
With two more days to go, a slight idea is coming up who may be the winner of the J/24 World Championship. Ian Southworth and his crew, with a third and a first place today, are showing a more than constant series. Southworth, who narrowly lost the worlds 2010 and ended fourth in the years 2012 and 2013, is focused on finally winning this trophy. The crew so far has rebuilt five J/24 and, with number 5, called "Il Riccio" which is Italian for "Hedgehog", has found the ideal setup.
But competition stays hard as there are two excellent and experienced US teams in pursuit of "Il Riccio": Mike Ingham, with 2014 world champion Will Welles as a tactician, and Travis Odenbach, who is also a very skilled J/24 sailor.
Despite the strong winds, day three of the Worlds saw the first all-female crew in the Top Ten: Ragna Thönnessen and her crew of "Juelssand" (GER 5313) finished in eighth position in the second race of the day. "This is our best result at a Word Championship so far", said bow woman Laura Hatje. "Sailing was big fun today, though the conditions were pretty tough for a crew as light as we are. After a good start, we found a very good boat speed and took the right tactical decisions." The Juelssand Crew has been sailing together since 2008. With an average age of 25, they are one of the youngest teams in the fleet. "Ian and his crew are doing excellent", said Laura Hatje; "Our bet is that they will be the new World champions. But up to now, the results are very mixed, so racing stays exciting!"
With just some points of difference, the fight for the Top Ten position stays tight. For Thursday, the weather forecast sees the wind decreasing to an average of 11 knots, which may favour the lighter crew like the Japanese Tokuma Takesue, currently in fourth place.
Tonight, the crew will gather for the traditional "Champions Dinner" held by the organiszing club Norddeutscher Regatta Verein. The first warning on Thursday will be at 12:00 hrs. All races can be tracked live via Trac Trac.
(Boltenhagen, 31th August 2015) Light winds dominated the first races of the J/24 championships. The key to success was to find free winds and to sail the boat as smooth as possible. Fumiya Kato (JPN 4886) showed the greatest skills on the water. He is on top of the leaderboard after 2 races, followed by Ian Southworth (GBR 5219) and Ignazio Bonanno (ITA 416).
Not only the crews, also the Principal Race Officer had to find the right wind to get the fleet of 56 participants under way. After a short postponement, the first race of the J/24 worlds was started at 14:00 hrs in the bay of Boltenhagen. In very light wind conditions (5 to 10 knots from NW), Team "Rotoman" (GER 5420) helmed by Tobias Feuerherdt won the first race.
In the second race of the day, the J/24 class showed their favour for very aggressive starts. After 2 general recalls, PRO Klaus Lahme raised the black flag. The second race was also won by a German team: "Hungriger Wolf" (GER 5316) helmed by Johann Huhn took the line honours.
"We had a very bad start into the day with a position in the fourties", said Johann Huhn; "But in the second race, a good and clear start enabled us to move with the wind shifts. To stay in touch with the top 10, however, our performance needs to become more consistent. Tomorrow, the wind is expected to pick up and to blow more from the shore, which means bigger wind shifts and even more tactical racing."
Overall, the Japanese crew "Lull & Hachi" with helmsman Fumiya Kato (JPN 4886) did a great job on the water. With a second and a third place, the crew of 6 are on top of the fleet, divided by a gap of 7 points from Ian Southworth (GBR 5219).
After a hot and sunny day on the water, the crews are enjoying Caribbean flair at the Mount Gay beach party organized by the German Sail maker "Clown Sails". First warning on Tuesday will be on 12:00 hrs.
J/24 class
It was in 1976 when US Sailor Rodney S. Johnstone constructed a simple, cheap and fast boat for his son in his garage. Today, the J/24 is the biggest keel boat class in the world. Its strict class rules keep racing simple and affordable even for youth teams, and one design makes competition even more fun. Many successful sailors began their career in J/24, such as Ken Read (Skipper in several Volvo Ocean Race-campaigns), silver medallist and America´s Cup tactician John Kostecki as well as America´s Cup winner Ed Baird.

(Boltenhagen, 30th August 2015) From Monday, 31st of August, 56 international crews will be competing for the prestigious J/24 World Championship at Boltenhagen on Germany's Baltic coast. It is the first time that the German Class Association has hosted one of yacht racing's top events. Anticipation is heightened by the highly competitive fleet, that includes former World and European champions.
International flair in the picturesque seaside resort of Boltenhagen: Sailors from all over the world have gathered on the Baltic coast for 5 days of championship racing and après sail fun. The line honours for the longest journey goes to 4 teams from Japan, but crews from Argentina, Peru, Barbados and Brazil also made the long trip to Northern Germany. However, the major part of the fleet (21 entries) comes from Germany, followed by Great Britain (7 entries) and Italy (6 entries).
The high calibre of J/24 teams gathered in Boltenhagen includes many world-class sailors: Among the entrants are two former world champions (Mauricio Santa Cruz from Brazil and Will Welles from the USA) and the current European Champion, Ian Southworth (GBR). Today's practice race already saw some very close racing on the water and raised the anticipation for the next 5 days of racing.
German hopes
From a German point of view, Frank Schönfeldt from Hamburg leads the host nation's best team in Boltenhagen. The sailmaker, who was European Champion in 2014, already has a very impressive track record. But it will be exciting to watch him sail with his young crew against competition like Ian Southworth from Great Britain who used this year's Kiel Week (that he won) and the German National Championships as preparation for the 2015 World Championships.
Jan-Marc Ulrich, chairman of the German J/24 Class Association, said: "The level in the J/24 class is very high, with many top teams in with a chance. Positions change quickly during the race which makes it even more exciting for spectators on the racecourse or those following in the Internet." To enable as many people as possible to follow the action, all 56 boats are equipped with GPS trackers.
Some of Europe's top female crews are also competing, like the current German National Champions "VEGA Ragazza", helmed by Stephanie Köpcke from Hamburg. "VEGA"'s tactician Silke Hahlbrock, was also part of the German Olympic Match Race campaign.
Association with the "Norddeutscher Regatta Verein" (NRV)
The practice race on Sunday gave the crews the opportunity to tune up and get a feeling for the waters off Boltenhagen. With the first race being held on Monday, 31st of August, by Friday 4th the J/24 class will celebrate their new world champion.
Racing will be organised by the 'Norddeutscher Regattaverein', one of Germany's oldest yacht clubs, that has many years of experience staging international events such as Kiel Week and countless One-Design championships.
Jan-Marc Ulrich, "We are happy to have such an experienced Principal Race Officer as Klaus Lahme on board for the J/24 World Championship 2015. Klaus was a very successful Laser sailor and is international Race Officer as well as international Judge."
Boltenhagen's attractive location in Mecklenburg-Vorpommerania allows spectator-friendly inshore racing, with stable winds, free from commercial shipping lanes.
The event is based in the purpose-built Boltenhagen Marina located within the exclusive 'Weiße Wiek' holiday village which offers a modern yet relaxed atmosphere. The town of Boltenhagen is close to the venue and grew from a fishing village into a picturesque seaside resort in the early 19th century. Its well-restored family hotels, shops and restaurants offer a pleasant alternative to the excitement of the racecourse.
J/24 class
In 1976, US sailor Rodney S. Johnstone constructed a simple, cheap and fast boat for his son in his garage. Today, the J/24 is the world's largest keel boat class. Its strict class rules keep racing simple and affordable, even for youth teams, and the strict "one design" concept makes competition even more fun. Many successful sailors began their career in J/24, including Ken Read (Skipper in several Volvo Ocean Race-campaigns), silver medallist and America´s Cup tactician John Kostecki, and America´s Cup winner Ed Baird.
"We are very proud to be hosting the J/24 worlds", said Jan-Marc Ulrich from the German Class Association. "An international committee decides where the worlds take place. With our application, we were successful against nations like Brazil." A dedicated team of volunteers have been working for months to ensure the event will be unforgettable for the sailors, their friends and families.

Here you can find out the latest surf news, enjoy a variety of articles and surf stories and check out some of our weather and forecasting features. This is also the place to find out about how the launch and development of Hotswell.com is progressing. If you'd like to contribute to or comment on these pages, drop us a line or click here.
Dear Captivated Audience.
I'm writing to provide the "broke" surfer with a guide. Broke being a flexible word in this article. For me it's broken as in "Ouch my knee bent the wrong way." Also I will include all of you that suffer with "Crap, my only surfboard is broken" and "Crap, I'm stone broke again."
My aim is to help all of us to find things to do when broke , broken or broke is included in our status. Being a surfer reading this you will all know there has been a time when one (or all) of the above apply to you. Fear not as there are things we can do to stay sane. Here are my top 10 tips to keep the stoke alive!
In no definitive order:
Wether you have a flourescent pink cast on your leg (which you were persuaded by the technition at the hospital was, and I quote "Raspberry"), a broken board or just simply have no money, we can all decorate! Take a permenant marker to your snapped board to make a beautiful wall piece. Let friends write obscene things on you cast. For example, "This is the worst trip I've ever been on" and "Pink means pussy". Alternatively just draw a picture of your favourite wave or beach.
Now we're all like minded surfers so let us not judge straight away. We all know a crusty hippie who owns POI , JUGGLING BALLS and a HULA HOOP! Do not be afraid to unleash your inner beast with that mighty yet sometimes intimidating hip thrust. Please take into account the time and location of said thrusting. It's good exercise for your core and your spirit!
In the UK it's currently blackberry season. I expect when most of you read CRUMBLE you thought to yourself "As if we need tips for smoking hash." Anyway, go and pick some blackberrys and sit endlessly making and of course eating crumble. Cold or hot custard I have no personal preference.
Sitting in front of the computer can become tedious. Forecasting sites really not providing the reports we want to see. Sit and do some research for your next expedition. Learn about the conditions you need for that up and coming surf trip and try something new. Open your mind to some new breaks. Your local beach isn't all that!
5. MOVIES, MAGAZINES and CHEESY SURF ARTICLES
You can't be in the water for one reason or another. Probably you're sat at the work desk right now keeping a watchfull eye out for your supervisor. Watch some surf movies or look at pictures to get some inspiration and motivation for your next epic sesh! Watching and reading about surfing does inspire, help and provide you with new ideas and things to do in the surf.
I can bet 90% of you have got the stylish "I've been surfing all summer" poo head tan! With the current weather, GET OUT THERE!! Sun cream from the neck upwards and get rid of that poo head. It IS NOT a badge of honour.
If you have just snapped that $500 shortboard or your neck on a "Hectic beachy", fear not , the grass IS always greener! (unless you have done both of the latter in which case you are having a really bad time right now and my feelings go out to you). Before long a friend will lend you a stick to surf on and/or the hospital will cut off your cast and tell you that you're healed and you'll be surfing with us again in no time at all. Yeeeeeeeeew.
Pick up your instrument or MP3 player!!! Everybody can enjoy music. I imagine your favourite playlist consists of Donovan Frankenreiter and Jack Johnson. It's a stern judgement I know. Anyway... Failing to master the ukelele, create a playlist for the next drive to the beach to get you amped up. No one will judge you for blasting 'I want to break free' by Queen. It's a metaphor for making it out of a tube... isn't it?
I would say teach your boyfriend but chances are she isn't reading this and you can already hang 10 on it .
When it's flat everybody is looking for something to do. If you have not already done all of the above it's time to get together. That guy with the broken board can't surf, neither can the guy with the broken leg. The guy who is "broke" relies on the guy with the broken leg to buy the beers because the guy with the broken board is saving vigorously.
You'll work it out. Happy surfing and stuff!

|courtesy of Allen's Lollies Facebook page
Have you ever thought about it?
We constantly hear about what musos, actors, artists have on their riders and request or demand for backstage or their hotel rooms, but what would you have on yours?
I personally wouldn't have much. Pepsi Max, KFC or roast chicken and chips (fries to some), M&Ms and orange lollies, if I wanted lollies that is.
Why orange?
Because, strangely, orange is the only colour/flavour that doesn't make me feel sick.
I knew years ago it was that way with jelly beans, and the last few years I've realised it's that way with snakes, jelly babies and other flavoured jelly lollies.
I have no idea why it's orange, maybe there's less sugar or something in them, but I can eat them and not feel sick afterwards. As for chocolate, a lot of it makes me sick, M&Ms don't, which is why I'd pick them.
As for other food, what would you guys have on your rider?

Selected children also receive certificates for their contribution to our school and value leaves for those who promote these attributes in our school.
As a Church of England school we value our Christian distinctiveness. All classrooms have a spiritual area which highlights the core values that our school embodies. Prayers are said daily and our children learn a variety of Christian hymns and songs. We also have worship focus days which concentrate on important messages of the Bible and the example that Jesus gave us.
Parents are reminded that they have the right to withdraw their children from all or part of the Religious Education and Collective Worship provided. Under such circumstances, the school ensures that children are fully supervised and engaged in purposeful activities.
Easter Church Service
Open The Book Assembly
Christingle Service
This service is a culmination of learning that helps us to define us as a Church of England school. Through learning about it, we understand more about the Christian faith and how we should act through the example of Jesus. The children spent the week learning about the meaning of the christingle itself, making christingles and getting to know more about The Children's Society in the 50th anniversary year of the service as we know it today.

Personally I feel that every movie could use a bit more blood in it. Except DEAD ALIVE. That flick has just the right amount of blood. Also THE SHINING. When blood pours endlessly out of elevators, I think it's safe to say your movie has the required amount of plasma in it.
If you guys remember, a few weeks back the guys over at BitMassive gave us a taste of what holiday-kid-classic HOME ALONE would have looked like if a little bit of the old red stuff had been added. That video series was a blast, and I am happy to report the guys are back at it. This time with my favorite film series BACK TO THE FUTURE.
Have you ever wondered what would have happened if Doc Brown hadn't been wearing a bullet-proof vest that night at the Twin Pines/Lone Pine mall? Or maybe what would REALLY happen if Marty crashed the time machine into a barn going full-tilt 88 mph? Well this new video series has got you covered.
Oh, yes, there will be blood...

Various insights from "The Age of Insight"
Continuing in my reading of Eric Kandel's neuroscience tome "The Age of Insight," I come across the following:
(Scientist) Ulf Dimberg… found that when a person is shown the facial expression of an emotion, even briefly, it elicits small contractions in the person's facial muscles that simulate the expression he or she has just observed.
Fascinating – it seems Ulf Dimberg is not so dim after all! When we see a person's expression, we ever so slightly mock it up on our face. I went through the book looking at the various faces in paintings presented and found myself doing this. In fact, I don't think it really comes as a surprise – we are aware (at least I am) of our tendency to do this.
Another interesting tidbit in the book. We have a region in the brain that only responds to the motion of living things. For example, this region would activate when watching a person or cat moving, but not a bouncing ball. I'm curious how it would respond to the motions of a human looking robot?

This is an exciting time and businesses and employers will have a skilled and task-oriented group of jobseekers from which to select their next employee. Importantly, our existing program participants can continue to work with us, ensuring they have a consistent provider who knows them best."
Mr Birch said, "The new changes are a huge step forward for our program participants."
EGF Solutions will also provide Disability Employment Services in the Ballarat and Warrnambool regions and in Werribee and Melbourne's western suburbs. EGF Solutions will open new offices in each location and employee 11 new staff members.

The great people behind Dragon Empires have apparently been drawing a lot of attention at E3, there are quite a few writeups floating around about them:
Jamie Madigan writes how "this fantasy-based MMORPG sets itself apart with a few new twists and a lot of player-on-player interaction."
In a lot of ways, Dragon Empires is like most of the fantasy-themed MMORPGs out there. It's got swords, magic, and high fantasy. You can play as different races and choose from different classes, building up skills and inventories as you solve quests and kill things that need killing. But Codemasters is adamant that it's added a few wrinkles to the well-worn MMORPG cloth.
Read the full article here.
Jason Ocampo wrote up his impressions of Dragon Empires after checking it out at E3...
The game takes its name from the fact that the vast world?over 580 square miles in size?is divided up into a number of empires, each ruled by a different dragon. These dragons serve as mentors and protectors to their people, and they vary in size and shape, from bird-like to fish-like. You?ll be able to play three different races in the game: human, dragonblood, and shadow. Humans tend to be the best spellcasters, dragonblood the best fighters, and the shadow the scouts. Each race has five unique classes, so there are 15 total classes in the game.
You can read the full article here.
Kheldon and Zedin from Stratics interviewed Calistas at E3 yesterday:
With my meeting scheduled with Peter Tyson ("Calistas") early on opening day of E3 I rushed to the booth with Kheldon (another Stratics staff) to get a early glimpse of Dragon Empires before the interview. No sooner had we stepped to the system when Peter steps up and introduces himself. Ignoring the fact that we are 20 minutes early (I mean who really could stay away?) he starts showing off the game and jumps right into the thick of it.
Check out the full interview here.
Tom McNamara writes a short piece giving an overview of Dragon Empires for the un-initiated:
You can read the full writeup here, and visit the official Dragon Empires site here.
With all the MMOs coming out this year and next, it can be difficult to sift through the information and find which one would best suit you. Every one of them has a specific appeal--World of Warcraft has a nice art design and a deep quest system. City of Heroes puts you in the leotards of crime-fighting, super-powered guys and gals. If I had to choose any one element of Dragon Empires, which is set to launch late this year, it would be the trade system. Every player starts out with their own workshop, staffed by a versatile artisan who'll need you to gather or trade for supplies to make stuff that you then turn around and sell in the player-driven economy. Once he's made his stuff, you can set what price to sell it at, and how much to pay for how many resources he'll need for another batch.

Today sucked.
Sorry, but that's just the truth. It happens, just like it sometimes happens that you blow dry your hair and it turns into a hot mess instead of a sleek bob.
Why, you might be asking, was today less-than stellar?
Oh, lots of reasons. I forgot my lunch at home, almost hit another car while merging onto the interstate, ran out of coffee before running out of sleepiness and hit a terrible spot on Pandora that was not at all conducive to convincing me to edit content for the web. No, it was better suited for me wanting to throw my computer against the wall and go get some ice cream instead.
Knowing me, you already know I did not throw things. I did not get ice cream. I quietly simmered through the day, then left promptly at 5 p.m.–okay, 4:57–and called my sister to vent.
And she knew just what to say.
So I had a bad day. And now it's over.

The Bite-sized Travel Packing List is an email newsletter about travel, planning, packing, nifty finds & more! Click here to subscribe
Hello! Winter travel holiday deals are flowing like Christmas cheer, so it's time to start thinking about 2017 travel plans. I've added a trip to London in early summer to join my new BFF Adele at Wembley Stadium, along with 90,000 other friends. Thanks for reading The Packing List, have a great week!
Travel news you can use
- Carnival's Princess Cruise Lines has been fined USD$40 million for dumping bilge – oily waste water – since 2005. This Fox News article about the case uses a picture of Guy Fieri, which is brilliant. Carnival is also partnering with The New Celebrity Apprentice, so, yeah.
- That Carnival story was barely reported by travel industry media. Isn't that interesting?
- Ancillary revenue for airlines, like additional fees for advance seat selection and checked baggage, is projected to be around USD$67 billion worldwide in 2016.
- Airlines really stepped up during the wildfire in Fort McMurray earlier this year, and Canada's Westjet Airlines kept the good vibes going to giving the families of Fort Mac free flights at the city's holiday kick-off. Let's go back and look at these pictures of dogs on airplanes during the evacuation.
- AirBNB has agreed to limit rentals in Amsterdam and London, which is kind of inconvenient for my summer travel plans, but better for residents of those cities seeking housing that is currently being used exclusively for holiday rentals.
- AirBNB also made nice with New York state by dropping its lawsuit, on the condition the state fines hosts and not the company itself. Nice, AirBNB, real nice.
- In news that will vastly improve flights, Netflix has added offline viewing to the platform. This increases the possibility I will finally finish several of the shows I started bingeing in the summer.
- For Canada's 150th birthday in 2017, national parks will be free with a Discovery Pass. Being both "frugal" and outdoorsy, Canadians promptly crashed the website on the first day the could get the passes.
- Belgian beer has been added to UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
- The US Drug Enforcement Agency was paying baggage handlers at Amtrak and airlines, TSA employees, and other workers to report on things they found in the luggage of passengers, which is, at a minimum, a huge violation of privacy.
- The next American president's pick to head the US Department of Transportation is staunchly pro-business, which could be bad news for expected advances in consumer protections for travelers.
Nifty finds
- Instagram has released the top 20 most-Instagrammed locations for 2016: we're all very, very basic.
- Because tourists need to be told, Iceland showing them how to take better, safer selfies at some of their stunningly beautiful (but kind of dangerous) natural wonders.
- This Guardian long read about an American father's plan to make his daughter a princess by claiming an unclaimed strip of land in Africa – and what happened next – is the Foreign Press Association's travel/tourism story of the year.
- The strange case of how tour guides in other countries learn to deal with Americans and their expectations.
- Science says, "Spending money on experiences like travel makes you happier than buying things." Thank you, science!
Get to know Christmas around the world!
- Google is kicking off the holidays with a Santa tracker site that gets new, fun content daily, including this map of Christmas traditions around the world.
- Christmas Iceland-style involves a lot of time with family and friends, an epic fireworks display on New Year's Eve, and feasts until early January.
- Speaking of Icelandic Christmas, get to know the Yule Lads, a sometimes nightmare-inducing collection of burglers who try to break into your house every night. I got an ornament of the Sausage Swiper for my Christmas tree!
- Catalunya, the area of Spain around Barcelona, probably as the best Christmas traditions of all, featuring caganers – characters who hide out and "fertilize the ground" – in nativity scenes and Tió de Nadal, a log that children beat with a stick until he poops presents. I made my own Tió from a Pringles tube, a fun holiday craft idea!
Planning your next trip
- Holiday travel is just a couple of weeks away. These tips will help you find flights, save your luggage, and survive the ordeal of air travel overall. If you're going somewhere by air this holiday season, be prepared!
- If you're in New York before the end of January, check out this exhibition that tells the 400-year story of what gives the city its spirit.
- Travel planning is a bit quiet this week, but there end-of-year lists will start rolling out soon.
Packing lists and tips
- Worried about losing your bag while traveling over the holidays? I go back to this pitch to take nothing – go bag-free!
- Everything packing-related on the internet is still focused on Christmas gift ideas – get on it!
Zipping the suitcase
So, are you planning your 2017 travel? Can you tell I'm ready to pack my bag and go right now? Tell me what you think about the newsletter by sending a message directly to email@example.com. Find out more about where I travel here on http://bitesizedtravel.ca. See you next week!

Good Morning!
Yes, I am still here, haha. Recently returned from a month-long sojourn in New Zealand which Den and I absolutely LOVED! Beyond all expectations...we think it may be the 'perfect' country ;-).
We have had some YUUGE decisions to make lately and have experienced first-hand the incredible validity and efficacy of that old adage: Sleep on it.
Conditions would present themselves which would engender rather sharp and unpleasant reactions and assertions of the personal self. Waking up the next morning, without having made any decision the night before, a clear, conscious, direction and decision was evident. All emotion and hand-wringing of the p.s. was absent.
In sleep we eventually retire into superconsciousness and actually rest in the ONE to one degree or another. The illusions of I, me, mine are dissolved into a KNOWING that there is only ONE. These egoistic separations are no longer....the ONE manifests as the TRUTH of our existence. We probably will not remember much of this...yet the inprint is there the next morning. It is powerful enough to allow us to proceed on the path of the ONE.
I feel comfortable and confident this morning in my awakening guidance in important life decisions. I am on the right track and it feels GOOD. I commit myself to sleeping on all significant decisions for the remainder of this lifetime.
Loving you always,

Today, on the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, we reflect on the fact that leaders like Dr. King, A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin considered good jobss and the right to join a union as essential elements to realizing racial justice. After all, "It was commonly asked at the time, 'what good would it do to integrate the lunch counter, if we don't have the money to buy a hamburger?'" Labor rights SHOULD be a civil right.
Why Labor Rights Should Be a Civil Right - USA Today
"The state of economic opportunity today is a far cry from Dr. King's vision. Increasingly, American workers are struggling to make ends meet. Each day they are forced to make impossible choices between feeding their families and keeping the lights on, paying for gas or buying a coat." We can start making Dr. King's dream a reality by making sure the nearly two million federally-contracted workers in the U.S. receive a living wage!

Are you having trouble winning your fair share of real estate listings? If you aren't going about things in the proper way, it is tough to come out ahead. However, the right techniques can help you impress sellers, and land the listing you have been chasing. Terri Murphy knows how important each and every client can be, and that is why you have to work hard. To that end, Terri has provided secret strategies to wow the seller and win the listing every time.
- Beforehand – Is your first meeting with your prospective client the first exposure they have to you (besides a phone call)? If you answered obviously yes, you aren't thinking outside the box. Set up a pre-appointment package (to be delivered) that contains information about the services and strategies that will be unique in their experience with you.
- Package – Do you have your package ready to go? Make sure it is delivered before you ever meet with your prospective client. This will ensure that they are prepared for your eventual first meeting, and that they are well acquainted with your name and brand, before they even see you for the first time.
- Presentation – On the big day (first meeting), impress your client by having your presentation ready to go. Technology allows you to share ideas for virtual tours, Facebook events, and more. Be ready with an available paper CMA for those clients who are more analytical.
Being prepared can go a long way towards landing you that listing. And, once you get the hang of going above and beyond for your clients, you will start to see more and more results. Terri Murphy made her way to the top of the sales industry with dynamic and engaging strategies that drove success. When you work with her, you are giving yourself a great opportunity to learn from an expert. Contact Terri Murphy, today, and get the process started.

Four Seasons Hotel At The Surf Club In Surfside, Florida Is Now Open
A new tradition begins at this iconic oceanfront landmark
Surfside, Florida, U.S.A -- From the moment it first opened its doors on New Year's Eve 1930, The Surf Club in Miami has hosted history. It is an institution whose reputation looms large in the imagination of so many more people than can ever have visited it, let alone been members. When tire tycoon Harvey Firestone first had the idea of a new type of social club, on board his yacht the Marybelle, he could never have imagined how enduring the appeal would be of what he would soon create.
"The Surf Club's success has always been determined by quality, passion and relaxed precision and that remains our priority today; being intuitive, exceeding our guests' every expectation and creating memories that will last a lifetime," says General Manager Reed Kandalaft.
The Surf Club Yesterday
The Mediterranean Revival building and beachside cabanas that made up The Surf Club were designed by Russell T. Pancoast. They formed elegant backdrops that would frame the beach and sea, and cradle the crowd from the outside world at the same time. It quickly became a magnet for members that crossed industry, culture and class. It was a home away from home for people who shared provenance, privilege and a preference for pleasure.
Archive photos show poolside fashion shows directed by Elizabeth Arden, Shah Mohamed Reza of Iran on the tennis court, his wife on water skis and Winston Churchill painting in his cabana. There was booze on the beach during prohibition, kayaks in the swimming pool, black tie boxing dinners and lavish themed galas, one time with elephants, another with 300 tables made of ice. It was a place of myth, legend and endless laughter. The names that rolled up were pioneers of the good life: Noel Coward, Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Elizabeth Taylor, The Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Frank Sinatra, Tennessee Williams, Joan Crawford, Liberace.
They came to The Surf Club for its reputation as a place where proper impropriety was allowed. It was for people with good taste seeking good times. It combined power and pleasure, ceremony and swagger – its members felt off duty but on show, together. It provided its crowd with somewhere they felt they belonged, somewhere safe: a ballroom and beach, behind closed doors.
Firestone's mission was to embrace the possibilities of a new era and provide a new crowd that was emerging with a new type of offer that supported who they were, how they lived and how they behaved. It was a social club with sophistication in its bones, matched by a singular understanding of who its members were and what brought them together. It respected privacy but allowed freedom.
The Surf Club Today
The new Surf Club is an extended embodiment of its original values at a greater scale. Nadim Ashi, the founder of Fort Partners who today owns The Surf Club, explains his mission to preserve, respect and enhance the original spirit:
"We have selected the best of what everyone can do and we have pushed them to give us their best," Ashi explains. "We haven't let go of anything less than excellence. We believe that if you create something unique it will last. We have not created The Surf Club, but we have a commitment to ensure that what we are doing has integrity, culture and quality at its heart. It needs to be alive and loved."
Some of today's greatest creative minds were commissioned to write the next chapter of The Surf Club's story. Pritzker-prize winning architect Richard Meier has designed three buildings that frame and flank the original clubhouse. They are an exercise in discrete classical modernism, simultaneously reflecting and disappearing into the changing sky, the beach and the sea.
Parisian interior architect Joseph Dirand has been tasked with designing the interiors of the public areas and bedrooms of the Hotel, together with the cabanas. Renowned for his ability to bring atmosphere, rich narrative and quiet drama to life through space, materials, furniture and details, Dirand has created a series of rooms that evoke a sense of the past with a feeling of the present and a hint of the future. Five Cabana Studios are Dirand's homage to The Surf Club's unique cabana culture, situated on the original Cabana Row.
Le Sirenuse will open its first restaurant and champagne bar away from its famed Positano home on Italy's Southern coast. Led by Chef de Cuisine Antonio Mermolia and restaurant General Manager Luciano Sportiello, Le Sirenuse Miami presents a menu that includes both classic dishes from the Positano resort's Michelin-starred restaurant made with ingredients flown direct from Italy, as well as new dishes debuting at this location. Playing on shades of faded magnolia, beachcomber green and mahogany, Joseph Dirand's design combined with the oceanfront view evokes the same spirit that has been enjoyed for generations at Le Sirenuse Positano.
At The Spa, a light-dappled sanctuary designed by Joseph Dirand with crisp hues of white and blue, wellness services blend time-honoured traditions from around the globe with cutting edge technology and internationally acclaimed skin care lines to provide a completely tailor-made experience. The steam, sauna and showers, as well as the mixed traditional hammam, offer a perfect pre- and post-spa experience, while a tea lounge and relaxation room with private alcoves overlook the ocean and gardens. Eight treatment rooms are bright and airy, with two Spa Cabana Suites offering absolute privacy.
Also within The Surf Club's historic building, artist Michele Oka Doner has created a large, site-specific installation that tells the story of The Surf Club's legacy inspired by a wealth of source material from its past.
Outside, pool experiences include quiet and family options; and a future cabana pool to accompany 40 day-use cabanas featuring fully-air conditioned indoor furnished spaces with full bathrooms.
On the pristine beach, guests can take part in an array of non-motorised water sports. Younger guests are also welcomed at the fully-supervised Kids for All Seasons studio.
Be Among the First to Experience a New Tradition:
Situated directly on the Atlantic Ocean in the northern beaches of Miami, Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club in Surfside, Florida is minutes from prestigious Bal Harbour shopping and the nightlife of South Beach and Miami. For reservations, call 1 800 819 5053 or book online.

Officials from the Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority say the creation of 1,200 new jobs at Brunswick Landing is double the number of jobs originally projected to be created at the former home of the Brunswick Naval Air Station at this stage of its redevelopment.
According to The Forecaster, The Matrix Consulting Group projected that approximately 325 new jobs would be created by the fifth anniversary of the base's closure in April and 450 jobs by the end of August.
MRRA Executive Director Steve Levesque told The Forecaster that the recent openings of the call center firm SaviLinx and e-commerce site Wayfair at Brunswick Landing were both major contributors to topping the initial projections.
As Mainebiz reported in May, the two companies are expected to create a combined 1,000 jobs at the business campus.
Levesque also told The Forecaster that a true testament to the success of Brunswick Landing will be when the campus surpasses the economic contributions of the naval air station. By that standard, Brunswick Landing is a little more than halfway to that goal.
According to The Forecaster, using total payroll at the campus as an indicator of economic contribution, the current payroll is $70 million to $80 million, compared to the annual payroll of approximately $140 million when the Brunswick Naval Air Station was open.
Officials look into connector to ease Brunswick Landing congestion
SaviLinx thrives on not being your average call center
Brunswick Landing's popularity brings investment to community at large
Help wanted: Tyler, Wayfair and SaviLinx searching for 1,700 workers
'Build your own' hangar lots available at Brunswick Executive Airport

There's much to celebrate at Brunswick Landing

The next morning only Desmond woke up early since his two compatriots were too hungover from vodka to be useful. He decided to make the most of his morning by recovering his car and trying to find out what the hell happened at Aaron's place in Green Hills. Upon arrival, he noticed that several spy cameras had been set by the Technocrats, but someone seemed to have already disabled them by the time Desmond got there. Once inside, he found a gruesome picture: Aaron's naked and disemboweled body hanging from the ceiling. A symbol was carved into the Akashic's back, and his large intestine had been carefully cut and arranged into a symbol that Desmond recognized as pertaining to the Correspondence sphere. In addition to the blood trail leading from the bed to the body, Desmond noticed a large 5×5 foot area of blood on the floor that resembled some sort of design, but he could not tell what it signified. One part, near one of the edges, had a peculiar yellow tinge. Being creeped the fuck out, Desmond left Aaron and his apartment behind.
After catching up with Wayne back at the safehouse, and noticing that Vasili was still passed out, Desmond tried to hunt down information about Alan and Jonathan, but even his contacts in the Euthanatoi proved of little help. Frustrated, Desmond decided to go shopping for bomb-making supplies.
Meanwhile, Anders was having a nice chat with a psychologist named Dr. Malone who was trying to facilitate Anders' interaction with the police investigation. Anders thanked the doctor for his aid and asked him to get a message to his friend, Desmond, but he couldn't think of how to contact him.
After getting re-stocked, Desmond returned once again to the safehouse, and related his findings to Vasili who had finally gotten his ass out of bed. He also mentioned that a duffel bag containing $5,000 and a note saying "Baptist Hospital. You're Welcome." in elegant script had been left outside their door at some point in the night. The group figured that their enigmatic "friend," the Music Man, had delivered on his promise.
As preparation for their rescue, Vasili arranged for his cab to have body-work done so that it would not immediately identify him to his enemies, and the group asked Emil to get some recon over at Baptist Hospital while they waited. They received enough confirmation from Emil that Anders was most likely being held there, and so they planned how to rescue their friend.
After Anders' pleasant conversation with Dr. Malone in which he asked him to get a message to his friends Wayne, Desmond, and Vasili, another doctor said that he would have to go into surgery again because of complications that had arisen from his surgery in the night. Even though Anders didn't believe the doctor, he followed Malone's recommendation to take the easy route and accept the doctor's words.
Unfortunately for the doctors, Anders woke up near the end of his surgery before they were finished. In a panic, the doctors tried to sedate him again, but Anders managed to hold it off long enough to use a Life effect that would allow him to remain conscious for a time while appearing to be sedated. As a result, he overheard that they were actually putting something inside his shoulder.
After the surgery, Anders had one more conversation with Dr. Malone. Having regained more of his senses, Anders began to notice a few things that didn't add up about Malone. Eventually, Anders' field of vision melted away and "Malone" was replaced by a middle-aged, stocky man wearing shades, a gray suit, and a cowboy hat. This new figure warned Anders about his current associations, but thanked him for his earlier information concerning his compatriots. He then threatened much harsher interrogation methods soon to come.
At the same time, though, Desmond and Wayne were already preparing to bust out their buddy while Vasili waited with Desmond's car as the getaway vehicle. Having disguised themselves as doctors, Desmond and Wayne managed to find Anders' room, but not without overcoming some devious Technological Mind magic first. The two steeled themselves for battle, knowing that an agent awaited them on the other side. Wayne botched a magical effect, but still maintained enough stealth to get the drop on the guarding agent as he exited the room to investigate. Wayne's attack missed, but that put him directly in line with Desmond's hidden blade. The first blow immediately crippled the agent, and the second strike through the chin to the brain ended the agent's life.
They wasted no time in gathering Anders' belongings and cleaning up the blood out in the hallway. Still maintaining the doctor facade, the three walked their way to the exit. Surprisingly, the met very little resistance all the way out to where Vasili was waiting. As they gave one last look, however, Anders recognized the man who had pretended to be Malone, and Wayne recognized this man as Vance. Desmond, upon hearing that name, told everyone they needed to get the hell away from there.
As the group tried to drive away casually, they caught up with their now-freed buddy, but two police cars, one after the other, both tried to pursue them, and both were easily thwarted by Vasili's driving coupled with a smoke bomb from Desmond. Realizing that Desmond's car was now compromised, they left it in the lot at Flying Saucer and stole a new one as quickly as possible. After driving casually for a few more minutes, they noticed that an agent was very calmly following them in another car. Anders realized that he may have had a tracking device implanted within him. He spent the next few minutes trying to force his body to reject the new implant, while Wayne and Vasili shot the hell out of the pursuing agent's car. After a short combat, the agent's car crashed into a median on the interstate, and Anders managed to crush the bugging device implanted inside him.
Once the group reached the safehouse again, the Music Man decided to answer his phone which Vasili had called 2 hours previously and had left on to keep calling. The Music Man congratulated the group on rescuing their fallen comrade, but Vasili and Desmond soon interrupted him with questions about the supernatural world. When they discovered that he knew nothing about Orphans, they began to re-evaluate his usefulness as a source about the Ascension War. He did confirm that he and Vance had opposing interests, but did not elaborate further. He began to promise further assignments, but the group ended the call. They'd had just about enough for one day.

I understand that occasionally people return items. I understand that there have been a lot of problems with the statistics of late
However I think a discrepancy in a payment which represents a reduction of 20% on a three figure payment requires a PROPER and detailed explanation.
People have been commenting for a while that the ups and downs in stats is going to end up being reflected in the payouts - but this just looks like nonsense to me.
Could you please investigate and explain why so much money has been removed from the sum I was expecting as per the dashboard report of money earned in May.
Also if the email figure is correct, why is the dashboard reporting significantly incorrect figures for earnings?
Can I suggest others also check the figure in their email to the figure as per their dashboard Earnings Report for May 2015.
Mine are exactly what I expected, and it has always been that way.
I really think that if you have a concern about this, you should contact the team for clarification. They have consistently stated that stats are separate from income. I don't understand how that is possible, but that is what they tell us.
I'm raising it here to alert others to see if they have the same problem. I didn't think I needed to explain that bit!
I'm also talking about the CASH data on the Earnings Reports being very significantly different from the CASH payment notified via email. I'm not talking traffic.
If you seek information about an issue, perhaps you should be more specific when requesting it. Had you done that, I would have responded differently.
I think maybe you didn't realise which part of the Forum I was posting in? Or the fact I was specific?
The Technical Forum is, I understand, monitored by the team (note the number of threads which are marked 'resolved') and I've certainly seen people regularly raise technical glitches here - as have I in the past.
It's probably best just to leave them to do their job.
You really don't need to reply if you have nothing useful to say.
Contrast with later replies which identified the problem very quickly - and I'm very appreciative of the people who took the trouble to provide an "answer".
You did not have a technical glitch.
It would help your understanding of how HP works if you would spend some time reading the information provided on the site:
I know now that it was not a technical glitch. However I believed it was since I've never had such a large discrepancy before between dashboard cash and payments made.
I'm very sure I'm not the first person who has read all the relevant information at the beginning and then found something confusing later on.
Of course if HubPages provided a meaningful report of cash earned on the dashboard - in relation to what is payable on due dates - the misunderstanding would never arise in the first place for me or others.
The dashboard is not the place for that. The Earnings Reports are. HP indeed does provide proper and correct payment information...for those who take the time to learn how to find it!
I provided an answer...to the question I thought you were asking. Saying that what I provided was not worth writing is a bit harsh, don't you think? After all, I was trying to help you based on what I thought you were asking. If it had been specific enough, everybody would have understood what you were asking, not just some.
Maybe those who read it properly did understand?
I don't see any point whatsoever in continuing this nit picking debate. I'm now signed off from this discussion.
You're not adding the earnings from last month for HPads, amazon and ebay, are you? Because Amazon part will be from April, not May. Not sure about ebay, which month is payable this month.
Thanks - that might well be the explanation.
How odd that the totals provided on the dashboard bear no relation to the timing of the payments and hence provide no validation for Hubbers - without some effort on our part.
I'll change my spread sheet to split out the compoenent parts and add them into the right months so I've got a validation check
If you go to the Earnings tab - then go to balance history, scroll down and you will that the payment you get this month will have your Amazon from April and eBay from May, and your ad program earnings from May - then there will be a total. You may be expecting your Amazon payment on the wrong month is what I suspect, but then again I could be wrong. Mine seems to be right on target.
Thanks - and your assumption is correct
I'm going to change my spreadsheet so I create the correct total via dashboard figures in the right months
Hadn't checked my email yet, so needless to say the thread title gave me the usual heart attack.
All was well, no surprises here.
@HP Thank you for that warm, fuzzy feeling every 28th of the month. No matter what the future brings, I will remember you until the day that I die.
Do not misunderstand the above statement, I plan on being around for many years to come. As will HubPages.
Have you seen this page?
I find it very helpful in keeping track of my earnings. It is missing the amount earned last month for Amazon in the still unpaid figure at the bottom though.
Thank you - another helpful comment.
I had looked at this before but I must have not appreciated how closely it relates to the reconciliation between earnings and payments over time. It makes more sense now.
Maybe the title could be more helpful?
Also, HubPages took on a new advertising partner a few months back and warned us that they might pay out more slowly and could possible result in getting some of a month's earnings at a later point than the rest. I think a two month delay would iron out the apparent discrepancies but I also think people would prefer to be paid sooner rather than later.
I couldn't find the post it was in though, so maybe I'm confusing HP with another site I'm using?

I questioned them month ago about my payment that was $30+ under what my account shows, and they said I'd receive payment later because for that particular quarter. Fine... It's been two months, and I questioned it as I still haven't received the payment. Mind you I signed up when HubPages...

Okay, I really do not mean to sound that I cannot comprehend much, but I really do not understand the payment and earnings. I am using the HP ad and Amazon ad programs only. Fortunately and unfortunately, I've started hitting payout every month for the past five months as Amazon has finally started...

Can I?I have a couple of smaller accounts. As Amazon currently operates, my earnings go into one pot. From what I can understand, that won't happen once HP take over my Amazon. Or am I wrong?If I'm not, why not? I am going to lose out as it is, and I can't see the separation of my HP accounts being...

A Love Story: Episode 81
A Love Story
Written Update: Episode 81
Ceynat meets Yilmaz and tells him that Ceylan and Tolga are both suspicious of her and Korkut is not worth trusting anymore. She whines about hating her life and being unable to take it anymore. Yilmaz tells her she need not worry as he is with her in this and they will find a way out of this mess.
Korkut visits the hospital where Emine was admitted after her accident. He asks the doctor for the pervert's name and she refuses to divulge any information. She tells him to file a police complaint first before taking matters into his hand. He tries to persuade her but she does not budge. He then sternly repeats his question and she caves in.
He then goes to Memduh and asks him to find out about a man named Kadir who used to work as a compounder at the mental asylum and has quit recently. Memduh readily agrees to help him find the man and asks him if the man caused him any trouble. Korkut tells him that he need not interfere in his personal matters and that he just wants him to locate the man.
Emine tells Ceylan that Korkut got to know about her pregnancy but is not angry with her as he hugged her. Ceylan is worried that Korkut might harm the father of the child. (Wait a sec. She knew that Emine was abused? I thought she believed that Ahmet is the father of her child. She knew it and still never mentioned it to anyone? Sick! How could she remain quiet?) She calls Korkut who asks her if she knows about Emine. Her silence says a lot and he hangs up after telling her to take care of Emine.
In a park, Yilmaz tells Ceynat that he does not feel that Tolga and Ceylan know the truth because if they did they would have exposed her by now. He then puts forth his reservation against Korkut who might ruin her game. He asks her if she will ever want to have him bumped off and Ceynat vehemently denies it. He asks her the reason why she is against the idea and she says nothing. Yilmaz surmises that she too is in love with Korkut and she does not correct him. He then muses that he will never be happy in life till Korkut is in his way and resolves to do something about it.
Gonul calls Ceynat and asks her to not come home tonight as reporters have surrounded her house. She requests her to join her and Tolga at the hotel where they will be spending the night.
Meanwhile, Korkut reaches Memduh's office where his secretary tells him that Memduh left an hour ago and hands him an address. We see Selim hand the goons keys to Gonul's house so they can execute their plan.
Korkut reaches the address with a steel pipe in his hand. He looks through the house but does not find anyone till he hears a gunshot and a man's scream. We see the pervert quivering like a rat begging to know what he did wrong as Memduh holds him at gunpoint. Memduh berates him for ruining the lives of several innocent women. He tells him that he is well-aware that Emine was not his first victim and that perverts like him do not deserve to live. He then shoots him in the kneecap. Korkut charges towards them and Memduh's men hold him back.
Korkut screams that the pervert is his prey and Memduh says he will handle the man for him as he does not want Korkut to kill anyone. Korkut questions who he is to do so and Memduh admits he is nobody to him and gestures his men who then take Korkut away. Memduh then shoots the pervert in the other knee. (I knew Korkut is left-handed but I noticed today that Memduh is left-handed too.)
Korkut returns home where he kisses Ceylan softly and sleeps behind her wrapping his arm around her. She asks him if he did anything to jeopardise his limited days with her and his family. After a long period of silence, he replies that he did not do anything wrong. She heaves a sigh of relief. He tells her that he is worried about how Emine will raise the child and wishes that the baby is never born. She tells him that it is her baby and it should be her decision to have it or no.
Selim's accomplice rummages through Gonul's room and steal her jewellery and the money, she has withdrawn to give the organ dealer, from her drawer. As they are on their way out, they see Ece and kidnap her before she can alert anyone.
Selim changes his mind and tells Emre to call the goons back but he declines saying that it is too late to back out now. Just then. the two men call him and inform about encountering a girl in the house. They then arrive at their meeting spot and Selim screams at them for kidnapping his sister. One goon bashes him up while the other pulls Ece out of the car and says that they are leaving her for now but if they open their mouths then he will kill all of them. Emre then asks them to split the money and the goon lies that the house was empty and that they did not find anything.
Next day, police arrive at Gonul's house and tell her that the robbers did not break into her house and probably had the keys with them She tells the police that other than her family, only the housing keeping staff has the key to her house. She adds that she has full faith in her staff and does not want them to trouble the family. The police ask them if they heard anything suspicious last night. Asiye says she was having a headache but fell asleep before Ece could bring her the medicine. Ece says that she came to collect the medicine but did not hear anything. Selim answers that he spent the night out with his friend. The investigator eyes him suspiciously and questions about his friend. Gonul intervenes that they are in mourning and must not be troubled so the police dismiss them. The policeman asks Gonul what all was robbed. She tells him that she lost her jewellery and a huge sum of money. He asks her if anyone was aware of the money. She shakes her head but seems to have remembered something.
She visits Korkut the next day and chastises him for his two-facedness. Baffled, he wonders what she is talking about and she asks him what he plans to do with so much money. Getting the hint, he says that she must have already informed the police by now and they must be on their way to nab him. She balks at the idea and asks him why he is being so mean to her. He evades her question and she says that the day she discovers the reason behind his bad behaviour towards her she will get back at him in the same way as him. He then leaves after saying that she needs to work on her threatening skills.
Tolga is taking a strolling in his compound when Korkut walks over to him and tells him that he must savour the sight for one last time as he is going to tell Gonul the truth. He teases that when Gonul learns about her real son, she will surely abandon him. Tolga feels insecure and he argues with Korkut. He loses his temper and pushes Korkut the same way he pushed Tahsin down the stairs and turns to see his lifeless body lying at the end of the steps. He then wakes up from the nightmare and resolves to do something about Korkut.
Korkut finds Ceylan in the kitchen and asks why she did not visit her mother. She tearfully replies that she finds it hard to visit the house that reminds her of her father. Staying back is not easy either. He turns her to face him and asks her to stop thinking about his death. She says she cannot do that and he urges her to try harder and pulls her into a hug.
Tolga meets Yilmaz and asks him to have Korkut killed. Yilmaz wants to know what is his problem with Korkut. He tells him that if he manages to be patient then his work will be done automatically as he is dying anyway. Tolga says he does not have time in his hands and that he wishes to see Korkut dead before he dies. Tolga offers him a huge amount of money in return. Yilmaz says that he does not need money but an assurance that when the times comes right he will have to give him something he asks without a question. Tolga agrees to the condition.
Ece argues with Selim over the stealing incident. She tells him that he should pray that the robbers do not get caught or else he will be in trouble. He is confident that they will never get caught by the police and Ece puts some sense in him. He then scolds her for strolling in the empty house late at night before leaving in a huff.
As soon as Selim steps out of the house, the investigators approach him and ask him to get into their car as they wish to ask him some questions. After some time, Selim notices that instead of the police station, the investigators are driving him out of town.
Ceylan tells Asiye about the lady who visited Gonul a few days ago. She tells her about the lady and Gonul recognizes her as an old acquaintance who worked for Gonul. Ceylan recalls the lady saying that she is a mother how is in a lot of trouble and she surmises that the lady could be Korkut's real mother. She explains that Gonul did a lot of charity work for Korkut's orphanage the year he was left there and Hakki Baba was the guard there. She connects Hakki Baba's letter and the lady's sudden reappearance and concludes that she could be Korkut's mother.
Korkut meets Yilmaz who tells him that Tolga has hired him to have him killed. Korkut just rolls his eyes and leaves his car without a word. Haha Yilmaz's minion joins him and Yilmaz tells him that Korkut did not take him seriously but his work is done anyway as he has pitted him against Tolga. He hopes that the two men now do something about it which will have Tolga eliminated from Ceynat's life and Korkut from his life.
Ceylan urges Asiye to remember anything related to the woman but she is unable to do so. Ceylan assumes that the lady and Gonul were friends and when the lady left her kids at the orphanage Gonul also did the same. She tells Asiye that it is important for her to find the lady as only she can convince Korkut to undergo the surgery.
The investigators stop on a deserted road. One of the two men holds out a gun and coaxes Selim to give them half of the money she stole from Gonul's house. Selim asks them the consequence he shall face if he fails to give them anything. The investigators exchange looks and know that their doubt about Selim being involved in the robbery was right.
As Ceylan approaches the lady's booth, she calls Korkut and tells him that she has found his mother. Stunned, Korkut wonders what she is talking about and she tells him that she spoke to his mother and that everything will now be fine. Just then, he sees Gonul walk towards him and he stares at her in disbelief.
