Again with all the rain...but it then the heat and the frozen water pipes...Is this Arkansas? You know the joke..heater in the morning ac in the afternoon.
After a late workout on Friday, an almost weekly (almost obsessive) trip to Walgreen's, Daniel and I met up for dinner. We couldn't decide or find any place local and ended up at Fudruckers. It was yummy and we both opted for the grilled chicken.
On a total side note I don't think I have mentioned this before...For some reason I think that I have to look at the Walgreen's add every week even if I do not need anything. They have great deals on things you would not think of buying at a pharmacy. Start paying attention if you don't! Its a huge money saver lots of buy one get one free, combination offers, and instant rebates! I don't take advantage every week..but when I do its good!
Saturday we got up and headed to the gym for an extra long cardio session and weights. We ate at a new yummy local place called Noodles and Company. It was great and reminded me of Japan. Daniel is not a huge fan of Asian food but I can talk him into it every so often. (I jump at the chance for Sushi when Daniel is not around..oh how I love thee!) Daniel informed me he had a secret mission that needed immediate attention since we were downtown. Operation Secret Anniversary gift began with me in the truck. I had to promise I would not peak, listen, etc. He put a sweatshirt over my head, made me close and cover my eyes, and put on music as he took me in circles of downtown. Then he ran inside to finish the gift. All I know is we were in the location of a Pets Mart and Kinko's. I had to uncover my eyes he said it would be 5 min and it was more like 30. He has successfully totally thrown me off!
That night we met up with several people from Daniels work for a hayrack or hayride at Shady Acres. It was a lot of fun however, I was not a fan of the hay fights with other hay rides as we passed by. The weather was warm all day and cooling off that night and reminded me of hay rides at Ryan's when I was little. His family would always have a haunted ride with things to make you scream and feel of (grapes for eye balls)!
After the hayride we had a bonfire with all the works! I love burned marshmallows! Yum! However..if one were to look from a far at the situation there were about 40 bonfires with 30 people around each. I looked down onto the fires from a hill and it kinda scared me. It looked like a cult ritual from a distance. I can't wait to go back to Shady Acres and ride horses.
Sunday it was so cold 30 degrees, but that didn't stop us from going on a hike to the Louis and Clark Monument and Acre Lake. We took the dogs and froze but were determined to hike and see the area. My favorite part was convincing Daniel he was wrong and that I knew the sky line city we were viewing! He suprised me after our hike with a pumpkin to carve. Yippie!
So far this week..its been a busy one. Monday night our water froze. The temp was in the low 20's..that made me have a not so good morning along with the migraine I had for 2 days. We also have yet another leak in the slide..this time in the bedroom. Do you remember me talking about the rain? Yes it has been annoying. The earliest we could take it in was this Saturday and it just so happens that Daniels mom is coming on Thursday. So I have been frantically trying to get things packed, finish Daniel's anniversary gift, and get things ready for her to come. Daniel says he is getting a cold...I am not so sure! Then again when a man is sick..well poor baby!
Tonight an easy dinner..a pizza from Sam's! I finished cleaning, made a trip to Wal-Mart, took the dogs out to play, soaked black eyed peas, and carved our pumpkin. Ok Mary we are excited and ready for you...

Brr, Rain, Looking for Land, and Ladybug Invasion?
Last week was full of lots of rain (blah), fun, cold weather, rain(um yea), fun...Well you get the point.
Friday night we headed to the Old Market area for Mexican food at Trini's. It was so yummy but, I do have to say didn't compare to Chuy's in Austin. Oh and yes they had good salsa that I topped off the chicken tacos with! We did a little impromptu Christmas shopping in the cute boutique stores! It was so much fun and of course Daniel loves to shop! Picture this...a hungry man, cold temps, hungry Daniel, pretty twinkle, lights, starving Daniel, and many Friday night diners and shoppers! He thought it was heaven! Haha
Saturday we got up early for a trip that lasted all day! We drove all over south Iowa going to a triangle of towns. We stopped in several for lunch, to mingle, and get the word on the birds. It was actually a semi successful trip. We found an area that has birds and places to hunt. You know about thirty minutes up the road to the next town, near the railroad tracks, right by the lone wind mill, and you will see lots of those white energy mills as you pass the corn fields..Yea that land!! We were a little baffled by the directions but after about an hour drive north and east we found that lone wind mill and the land!
It is so nice to spend time together and to continue to get to know the area around us. I believe honestly we all get used to an area when we live there and do not take advantage of the fun things it has to offer until someone comes to visit or we move away and take a trip back. How many times have you discovered something new that your area has to offer?
Sunday Daniel and I finally got my birthday present..Yes it was a few months late but we found the perfect mountain bike. I was so excited to ride on Sunday. We went for a 2 hour ride through the back roads and corn fields. It was a a lot of fun and a workout. I would have to say one of the best parts happened when a Columbine (its Harvest time) was driving behind us down the dirt road. I felt like I was in the movie Cars. The scene where the asphalt smoother (Bessie I think) is driving down the road to catch..Lighting McQueen.. well you get the picture.. The man driving the Columbine sped up. I didn't think that was nice but Daniel and I were laughing so hard, we made it funny! When we got home we had a swarm of ladybugs inside and out so bad I thought Daniel was going to freak. He hats bugs with a passion!! We finally got them all out..so no worries! I even found a concoction on how to get rid of them including vinegar, dish soap, water, and sugar..kinda like the one that gets rid of fruit files. I also didn't' know that ladybugs have an oil they let off when you touch them and it stinks! Yuck! I still think they bring good luck but this was too much of a good thing!
Anyway, so everything is still great here in Omaha. Daniel is still enjoying his job but is so ready to go snowboarding. We are waiting (yes patiently) for the mountain to open here so we can get some time in. I know I am ready to have a snow ball fight! ;) Hope everyone is doing great! We miss all of you!

Proud of a Pumpkin...Patch?
No but I have to brag..Daniel received the honor of employee of the year! His employer is the largest traveling company in the U.S. so this is a huge honor! I am so proud of you Daniel!!!!
Last week it began to cool down but it was not until the weekend it turned cold! Brr! Friday night we went out for pizza (justified warmth) at one of the funnest pubs we have found on our travels so far. A local hang out in the downtown area of Omaha brought great pizza, fun times, and many memories! In the words of a hammered 70 year old man at 7PM..(a lady walked in by herself) "Hey (to his buddy) must be cold look at that lady's (yea you know)". He yelled it!!
Saturday after Daniels work obligations, we made a trip to Cabela's to look for more hunting "stuff" as I put it for Daniel and to locate public land in Nebraska. Then we headed over to Vala's pumpkin patch which far over exceeded my expectations.It was over 150 acres of a Fall Festival and a complete experience with camp fires, shows, animals, hay rack rides, and plenty of homemade treats to eat and admire. Neither one of us had been in a corn maze and it was a 5 acre Nebraska Cornhusker blast! We also watched the Pigtucky Derby Pig Races, pumpkins launch, apple sling shot, a haunted house and cemetery, and of course found the "Great" pumpkin! We had a great time looking in the sunset for the perfect pumpkin and picking it off of the vine! The picking area was a little off of the beaten path and most do not hike back into the 55 acre pumpkin patch! After finding the Charlie Brown pumpkin we dined on treats of the season and one of the best and largest Carmel apples! I told Daniel I want another one for my birthday and he laughed! Some of the pictures are a little dark as it was getting dark while we were there.
Sunday we got up early and again became experts on water filters. We have some of the hardest water we have ever experienced. I honestly would rather have the lake water at the lake house. It is full of copper, iron, calcium, and its dark!! So after putting in three filters outside and one in the kitchen we are good to go! I also found a well/hard water shampoo. Who knew!? No more iron smell and soft hair again! Its the little things in life!
It was a great weekend with both Hog and Horn Wins!! Cassie the pictures from your party are so cute! Looks like you had a great time...
This weekend we are off to look at public land in Iowa and Nebraska. Daniel, my daddy, and his friends are gearing up for bird season (pheasant, quail, and grouse). Its that time of year...shopping time!!

Happy 11 Month Anniversary!!I
I know can you believe it? We can't! Last Friday October, 3 was our 11 month anniversary and we are quickly closing in on a year! Wow how so much has changed in a year. I was talking to Marie and Rebecca on the phone this week and we can't believe how we all got married last year at this time are all doing something completely different. How grown up are we? Marie got married, bought a house, and is now a great full time mommy to precious little Fletcher! Rebecca got married, received a promotion to club manager in Austin, and as of this week is a District Manager for 24 Hour Fitness in Dallas! I am so proud of them...and I can't forget Jill she is closing on her new townhouse with Jason as I type! She just texted me and said it was because I sent her good MoJo all day!! Daniel and I obviously got married, have both changed jobs (Daniel with his traveling PT position and me with my new PT company) moved from Austin, began traveling, and are having a blast! Wow what a year!
While I am at it..Cass- have a great time at your 13 Going on 30 birthday party! I really wish we could make it! I know you are going to have a great time. I also hope that Amanda (who also got married this year) and Andrea have a great time at their high school reunion. Mine last year was a blast and so much fun to catch up and reconnect with people who I had not seen in 10 years!
Hershey is taking after Daniel and trying to "learn" all the new hunting commands!
So back to our anniversary...we decided to celebrate one month of our first year. We got each other small gifts and had a 20 dollar limit since it wasn't our year anniversary. That umm makes you be very creative. We did good on our gifts and surprisingly we got each other almost the same thing. We had dinner at Haraha's as Daniel really wanted to do some gambling. We only lost 15 dollars so we did ok!
The rest of the weekend we played and explored Omaha and Iowa in the gorgeous weather.
Inside of Speecs Sporting Goods. Its huge!
Farmers Market, College World Series Stadium - Daniel was so excited to see it!

Baby's Baby's Everywhere...
It seems like everyone I know is having a little one. This morning Daniel's sister Michelle had a healthy little Victoria Lynn and from the pictures I have seen she is so cute! I know her big sisters are so excited! We are very happy for you guys!
Although most of babies I know of are healthy, it also seems that many young couples with little ones that are not so lucky. I can't imagine what they are going through and it brings everything in life to a reality. I hear stories from my parents about my brothers two open heart surgeries when he was a baby and it is still hard for them to talk about 30 years later. He is perfectly healthy now but, I can not imagine what they felt. With that in mind, please keep Baby L in your thoughts as well as Baby B. I know their families appreciate all of the warm wishes, thoughts, and prayers.

Oh I wish I wish the Hogs would have won!
Well our first week in Omaha was great. We went to dinner on Friday night with a couple that is also traveling and are staying in Iowa at the same park. On Saturday morning Daniel and I got up to go to the farmers market we had heard so much about. It is on the Old Market area in Downtown Omaha. The area is filled with shops, restaurants, bars, and on Saturday mornings with vendors from all of the surrounding areas with fresh produce and such. We had so much fun shopping for the week. We went to lunch at a bar/grill called Froggy Toads. We ended up at a Brew Pup to watch the Hogs get whipped by the Horns. We were the only fans representing our teams but there were some Virginia Tech and Cornhusker fans cheering us on!! We had a great day just spending time together and rooting on our opposite teams. Everywhere we went people would say..I am sure your house is interesting with 2 totally different teams rooting against each other! If they only knew how many phone calls I got during the game from Daniel's family and friends to rub it in my face. Ben and I kept texting during the game..to keep our down the Horns spirit going. It didn't' work!
Sunday we went out for a hike at an area near where we are staying.We drove through a town called Missouri Valley that had these stuffed dummies all over it representing the businesses they were in front of. It was a little odd and I am going to find out what the meaning of those are. Here is a pic to follow of one in front of a NAPA Hardware. It was a relaxing day with nothing much to tell about just continued cool weather, a sighting of wild turkeys, and playing with the dogs!!

The Pentagon is working on a proposal to shut the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, that would be available to President-elect Barack Obama once he takes office, a defense official said on Thursday.
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates asked his staff to come up with a plan to address the thorny issue of how to close the prison in southeast Cuba that Obama has pledged to shutter after he officially enters the White House on Jan. 20.
Guantanamo has about 250 detainees including Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, accused of masterminding the Sept. 11 attacks. The prison has come to symbolize aggressive detention practices that opened the United States up to allegations of torture.
"(Gates) has asked his team for a proposal on how to shut it down -- what would be required specifically to close it and move the detainees from that facility while at the same time, of course, ensuring that we protect the American people from some dangerous characters," Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell told reporters.
"If this is one of the president-elect's first orders of business, the secretary wants to be prepared to help him as soon as possible," he said.
Like Obama, Gates has said Guantanamo should be closed. Appointed by President George W. Bush, Gates has agreed to stay on in the Obama administration. He has said closing the prison will require legislation by the U.S. Congress.
"The request has been made, his team is working on it so that he can be prepared to assist the president-elect should he wish to address this very early in his tenure," the press secretary said.
Among the issues to be settled before the prison closes are what to do about the military commissions system, trials under way and about 60 detainees that U.S. officials have approved for transfer to their home countries.
The Guantanamo tribunals are scheduled to reconvene on Jan. 19 for pretrial hearings for Canadian captive Omar Khadr, who is set for trial the following week on charges of murdering a U.S. soldier with a grenade during a firefight in Afghanistan.

Pledges on emissions 'point way to global warming deal'
New pledges by the world's two biggest polluters to tackle their emissions could "unlock two of the last doors" to a comprehensive deal on global warming at upcoming crunch talks according to the UN's climate chief.
New pledges by the world's two biggest polluters to tackle their emissions could "unlock two of the last doors" to a comprehensive deal on global warming at upcoming crunch talks according to the UN's climate chief.
The US pledge to reduce emissions by 17 per cent on 2005 levels by 2020 - effectively a 4 per cent cut on 1990 figures – has been followed by specific proposals from China on how it would slow its growth in greenhouse gas emissions.
The announcements come just days before the start of the UN climate conference in Copenhagen, which aims to secure agreement on global measures to tackle climate change, including cutting emissions and providing funding for poor countries to tackle rising temperatures.
The UN's Yvo de Boer said: "The US commitment to specific, mid-term emission cut targets and China's commitment to specific action on energy efficiency can unlock two of the last doors to a comprehensive agreement."
But he warned: "Let there be no doubt that we need continued strong ambition and leadership. In particular, we still await clarity from industrialised nations on the provision of large-scale finance to developing countries for immediate and long-term climate action."
The US has laid out its proposals for targets to reduce emissions over the coming years, with a final goal of cutting greenhouse gases by 83 per cent on 2005 levels by mid century.
The White House also announced that President Barack Obama would be attending the climate talks, in the first week of the two-week conference in Copenhagen. More than 60 world leaders have said they will go for the closing days.
China has responded by saying that it would reduce carbon dioxide output per unit of GDP by 40 per cent to 45 per cent by 2020, compared with levels in 2005. The figure is not a cut in emissions but will slow the growth in greenhouse gases compared to "business as usual". Premier Wen Jiabao will also take part in the Copenhagen meeting.
A spokesman for the Department for Energy and Climate Change (Decc) in the UK welcomed the "important opening contribution" from China.
But he said: "At the Major Economies Forum in July, major developing countries including China committed to take action to reduce their emissions by a meaningful deviation from business as usual levels and to the goal of limiting global temperature increases to no more than 2C.
"It is essential that for the right ambitious deal to be made in Copenhagen, China and other nations will need to take action consistent with this 2C objective."
Environmental group Greenpeace said it believed China could do more to tackle its emissions. Greenpeace China's Ailun Yang said: "Given the urgency and magnitude of the climate change crisis, China needs stronger measures to tackle climate change.
"This is a significant announcement at a very important point in time. But China could do more."
But she said: "This is another challenge to the industrialised world, particularly the US, which has just announced an inadequate emissions reduction target of only 4-5 per cent by 2020."

LEAP AFRICA: The youth bulge has become a major concern across the world with youth population rising significantly in several countries. Statistics reveal that approximately half of the population of African countries is made up of youth. With a youth population of 43.9%1, Nigeria has the 17th highest youth population out of 229 countries in the world. These figures pose interesting discussions for world leaders and international communities on how the energy, creativity and vitality of this huge human resource can be channeled to strengthen economies and positively transform their countries. As observed in Africa, youth have increased participation in national issues and are adding values to lives through social development projects. Likewise in Nigeria, there are determined young people leading change efforts and positively transforming and improving the lives of people in their communities despite its daunting challenges.
Leadership, Effectiveness, Accountability and Professionalism (LEAP) Africa a nonprofit organization that is committed to developing dynamic, innovative and principled African leaders, launched the Annual Nigerian Youth Leadership Awards in 2004. The Annual Awards is LEAP's attempt to reward the commitment and passion of these innovative and dynamic young people and also inspire other youth to aspire and serve as change agents in their local communities.
Since inception, the Awards has celebrated and supported 65 young innovative Nigerians aged 18-30 years who are improving the livelihood of several ordinary citizens through community development initiatives.
At the 9th Annual Nigerian Youth Leadership Awards, LEAP will recognize efforts of the beneficiaries of its Leadership, Ethics and Civics (LEC) Programme. The LEC programme has equipped 14, 000 students in select public schools in five states with the skills and tools that they require to cope with life challenges and serve as change agents in their local communities. Community development projects are diverse and relevant to the socio-economic needs of a particular local government or their immediate environment.
From providing safe portable water serving many neighborhoods to creating awareness and working to achieve some of the United Nations millennium development goals, the students utilize their newly acquired knowledge and skills from the LEC Programme. In 2012, 50 social change projects were implemented by the LEC students in Anambra, Lagos and Ogun States benefitting thousands of individuals.
This year, LEAP will celebrate outstanding secondary schools and social change projects in Anambra, Lagos, Ogun States and Annual Awards recipient.
The 9th Annual Awards will be more than an event to celebrate the youth, it will feature LEAP's impact through its work in Nigeria and Africa. In May 2012, LEAP marked a decade of its leadership development and would specially celebrate its 10th Anniversary at this event.
Details of the events are as follows:
Theme: Youth Bulge: Ride the Tide.
Date: Thursday the 15th of November, 2012
Venue: The Shell Hall, MUSON Centre, Onikan Lagos
Time: 4pm prompt
The Awards is funded by several indigenous organizations and typically attracts a thousand guests from public, private and development sectors. An Award winning Nigerian recording artiste will be performing at the event.

My new crafting adventure and addiction: Weaving!!
Ari's stepmom, (the same woman who gave me my spinning wheel) sent yet another treat across the country with Ari this summer, a loom! It sat in the closet for a while because I had no idea what to do with it, until one day I suddenly felt inspired and took a private weaving lesson at the local weaving shop. I was instantly hooked.
These placemats were my first real project (if my ugly practice/learning mats don't count) and I love how they turned out! Turns out weaving is an amazing stash buster. I'll be knocking out my yarn stash in no time.
My loom is a rigid heddle loom. The heddle is the part of the loom that the strands are threaded through, and for this one it is rigid, as in the picture below.
The way it works is, half of the strands are threaded into those middle holes, and the other half are threaded in between the slats. So when you lift the heddle, half of the threads are lifted up, and when you push the heddle down, those same half of the threads are pushed down, because the other half is held in place in those middle little holes. By alternating the heddle between the up and down position, and continually putting the horizontal yarn through the space that it creates, you get weaving!
Starting a project is the most time consuming part. I don't have the fancy accessories that a hard core weaver would have, so I do the DIY version by placing heavy books on things and measuring yarn all around the room on a chair. Ari seems pleasantly unaware of the going's on around him.
Once the loom is threaded, (called warping, because the threads in the vertical direction are called warp threads, and the ones in the horizontal direction are called weft threads) you do a little sacrificial weaving with some paper towels or stupid yarn in order to get the weaving nicely spaced and ready.
After that, the weaving begins! It's so fun to just do a row of whatever is around in your stash, and to be surprised by the fun plaid combinations that appear as you go. It's really unpredictable, and playful. The nice thing about the placemats was that by making my lengthwise (warp) threads really long, when I got to the end of a placemat I could just start another one, and cut them apart later. This saves you from having to thread the loom again for each placemat. Also, they are all nicely matchy. (Yet still unique!)
At the end, I secured the tassle ends with a quick round on the sewing machine, so that they wouldn't unravel. It worked like a charm.
Voila! Our dinner table is so much more stylish now!

More FF News - Windsday 24th Locking, 301A.C. Year of the Dog
Check-out the site everyday for the latest news and updates.
Well met Adventurers' lots of Lexicon updates later today (checkout the section link for new additions). We also have a terrific Fighting Fantasy viral clip to advertise the excellent DS game now available. Check out the clip and post your thoughts on the Official Forum.
Well met Adventurers' lots of Lexicon updates later today.
Oh my! Sorry for the later than usual news update but Port Blacksand is now under a complete lock down and the town guards that normally patrol in groups of two or three are now patrolling in larger groups of five or more after fighting and rioting broke out across the city this morning. Today almost forty-nine years ago Lord Azzur now seventy-eight years of age, took control of the city and fighting with guards across the city began when Lord Azzur son Arrek Azzur announced that Azzur himself should become Port Blacksands King. Travellers, merchants and permanent citizens are now avoiding the streets where they were being threatened or harmed and I shall have more new Lexicon and Beyond the Pit updates later as I listen out for news.
Well met Adventurers' on this fine Locking morning. In Analand today, historians and scholars will no doubt be discussing and reflecting on the Blessed Crusade that left Arkleton on this day in 1688OT. In Port Blacksand I am busy transferring more new Lexicon and Beyond the Pit book guides to further expand the database. Look out for the update links on those respected pages. A big thanks to everyone also for their comments upon the growing Forum - especially those discussing the Old World Maps and those reviewing the books.
Well met Adventurers' its a wet and bitterly cold day in Port Blacksand today and my magic isn't functioning as good as it typically does due to a terrible stint of Tuberbeet flu. Updates later today consist of further amateur adventures, more images to the Beyond the Pit as well as articles to the Lexicon...look out for them later.
Hi Adventurers' more amateur adventurers today. A little later than planned, a new '45' paragraph adventure in our Amateur Adventures area. 'Sword of the Fallen' by Laurence MacNaughton...taster... It's purely by luck that the one person you meet on the old northern road is a trader with a horse-drawn wagon. When you hail him and tell him you wish to barter, he climbs down to the dusty road and laughs. He's a big man, with dark brown skin and the muscles of a blacksmith. "You're a young one. And bold, too. Perhaps the two go together. But from the looks of you, you don't have much to trade."...
Hi Adventurers' this weekend I have finally completed lots of planned updates behind the scenes and will be adding lots of new Lexicon and Beyond the Pit entries over the coming festive period. Lookout for more amateur goodies tomorrow after today's sacred day of Tanit.
Well-met adventurers' only a small update today as I have been busy exploring the Forest of Snatta for rare herbs and roots in Kakhabad. You wouldn't believe how tiring a TEL spell is on these old bones. Several updates added today within our Maps area including a great Deathtrap Dungeon map by Graham Parker, Trial of Champions by Kurt Rein. We look forward to more of these Graham and Kurt. Has anyone else enjoyed mapping the books? If so send us yours.
Well-met adventurers' to a brisk and very cold Locking. The first small feathery flakes of snow began to drift down over the rooftops of Port Blacksand in the early hours and all morning children have been eagerly collecting the first of winters snow for fun and mischief. As is popular on this day in Blacksand, children are preparing their masks and costumes to celebrate the legend of the incredibly over-confident thief Drogo Widemouth who is widely rumoured to be only the second person ever to have seen Lord Azzur's face. Unfortunately, Drogo crept into Lord Azzur's bedchamber, spied Azzur's face while stealing a selection of artifacts', after which friends identified him from various bodily parts found around the city.
Today as promised, we have a selection of updates for your enjoyment. The first is another '50' paragraph Amateur Adventures 'The Fall of Blacksand' by Jerome Luepkes set in Port Blacksand, also known as the City of Thieves. This city has seen many strange things in the past years, and was once home to a variety of thugs, pirates and, or course, thieves. Despite the presence of this dangerous collection of misfits, this city has been your home for several years now and you have grown fond of its many eccentricities.
You hear news from some of the city's guards that a large army is approaching the Port Blacksand from the north, presumably to take the city by force. You must attempt to get through the city and leave the City of Thieves using the southern gate.
Also later today, more Lexicon and Beyond the Pit entries.

Selfie's taken from 640 is always grainy and not that good, even in "Lumia Selfie" app. So i searched and tried different apps in store for taking good selfies(with Lumia 640) and found one app, that takes good selfie.which is
"Camera360 Sight" it a decent app, I'm not talking about app review. You can download the app from here.
Steps to improve selfie:-
1- download the" Camera360 Sight" app
2- Open it and switch to front camera using bottom left corner button
3- then click on that three colours in that bottom right corner
4- there you can see lot of options with real-time filters , select "Sakura" .
That's it. Enjoy clicking your selfie's .
With a lot more improved picture quality.
Note:- this trick work best at good lighting conditions like in outdoors, otherwise makes pictures grainy.
Finally, this trick works for me. Your mileage may vary.

So as far as strategy goes, since Black Kyurem is a basic Pokemon with no evolutions, you only have to use this Pokemon in your deck if you want to use this card. Even though this card is a dragon type card, you'll notice that its moves require water and lightning energy cards, so for this card to be at its best, it will be best to include this card in a dual type deck of water and lightning Pokemon. Black Kyurem is not fast, so you'll want to set this card up on your bench, you'll benefit the most if you get 4 plus energy cards on this Pokemon so you can move it into the active Pokemon spot and use Flash Freeze consecutive turns. Make sure to have plenty of energy cards in your hand and attached to Black Kyurem at all times, to do this, make sure your deck has a good amount of energy cards. I would recommend using Flash Freeze every turn, but if you don't have enough energy cards to use Flash Freeze, you'll have to use Dual Claw instead, just hope you have some luck when using this move. Because Black Kyurem requires so many energy cards to attack, I would suggest only using one of these cards in a deck that includes lightning and water energy cards.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card. This card does have above average hp, and one good move, but its retreat cost isn't low, neither of its attacks are quick, and its first move may not do any damage at all. This card definitely won't be the centerpiece of any deck, but it may make a nice addition to a water and lightning type deck.
Tomorrow's Pokemon Card:
So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Black Kyurem from the Boundaries Crossed set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of Black Kyurem EX, which is from this same set. Make sure to check below for the Free Pokemon TCG Online Codes!

Black pearls are cultivated on numerous platforms of the MANGAREVA LAGOON, which is full of corals and black-lipped oysters are harvested by the people. The inhabitants are also involved in agriculture and fishing to the minimum level. The Church is involved in the technical school CED (Centre for Educational Development) to train people in skill trades such as carpentry, mechanics, electricity and mother-of-pearl shell engraving.
A Father Laval built 116 stone buildings and arches and roads were laid. The buildings included a fortified palace with FOLLIES and Saint Michael's Cathedral , which has also been categorized as a FOLLY. The structures were built with shaped coral stone blocks. Several of the structures, dating to Laval's time, still remain, such as the Watch Towers on the coast and a turret., the remains of the palace built for MAPUTEOA, the last King of the Island. King Maputeoa's crypt is located in the Saint Pierre's Chapel behind the neo-Gothic Saint Michael Cathedral.

Woman Suffrage and Women's RightseBook - 1998
In recent decades, the woman suffrage movement has taken on new significance for women's history. Ellen Carol DuBois has been a central figure in spurring renewed interest in woman suffrage and in realigning the debates which surround it.
This volume gathers DuBois' most influential articles on woman suffrage and includes two new essays. The collection traces the trajectory of the suffrage story against the backdrop of changing attitudes to politics, citizenship and gender, and the resultant tensions over such issues as slavery and abolitionism, sexuality and religion, and class and politics. Connecting the essays is DuBois' belief in the continuing importance of political and reform movements as an object of historical inquiry and a force in shaping gender.
The book, which includes a highly original reconceptualization of women's rights from Mary Wollstonecraft to contemporary abortion and gay rights activists and a historiographical overview of suffrage scholarship, provides an excellent overview of the movement, including international as well as U.S. suffragism, in the context of women's broader concerns for social and political justice.

April has been a whirlwind of joy, I've twirled into May exhausted and happy and still spinning. Overshadowing everything else for me, I spent 5 days in New York (more blog posts to follow) which was fantastic. I was anxious about it for ages as I didn't think we could afford the trip and had made lots of money based decisions that I was worried would upset my in-laws (it was a family trip for my father-in-law's 60th birthday and our budgets are waaay different).
It was expensive (but we managed) and New York was beautiful - much more beautiful than I remember from my last trip about 8 years ago. Maybe it was because this time I was with Stu, or maybe New York is different!
|Crossing Brooklyn Bridge in my pink tights
Everyone seemed friendlier, the blossoms were so pink, the sun was shining, the colours were bright.
|Diner breakfast
|Waiting for the train
|Colourful wall in Brooklyn
|Giant bunnies!
|Central Park
I keep looking through my photos and thinking happily back on the trip. I'm not going to write any more about it just now as I will do proper posts separately but just wanted to summarize April for myself.
I spent quite a bit of time planning for New York although I didn't pack till the night before, which my colleagues were shocked by. I don't find this odd as packing in itself doesn't take long and I had compiled a list and planned my outfits so I wouldn't forget anything. Some of my friends think I'm crazy organised and some think I'm disorganised - I like to think I'm relaxed-organised!
Amazing sunsets again this month.
|Train station
And lots of rain!
|Epping Forest
Walking etc.
Daily walk goal - I walked on 19 days out of the 30, distance unknown as I didn't take my GPS watch to New York but I think it was a lot. I did London walks in Tottenham Marshes, Bloomsbury and Epping Forest.
I spent a lot of time at the gym as well, mainly yoga and core conditioning classes but also Kettlebells and suspension training. And one personal training session (that I won in the gym lottery woohoo) where I tried some boxing which was really great so planning to start 'Fighting Fit' classes this month.
Went for exactly one run - not quite back in to running yet! Maybe this month...
2 and a half books this month - Frost in May by Antonia White, Not that kind of girl by Lena Dunham and I'm currently reading The Dispossessed by Ursula Le Guin.
Stuff I liked on the internet include 'Why we should all wear men's underwear', 'Why travel boycotts are a waste of time' and 'Repairing broken vases with embroidery'.
and Life throughout April
It seems it was mostly fitness, New York planning and New York this month but there was actually other stuff. Seeing friends for drinks, for dinner, a murder mystery birthday party (which was fun because my friends are amazing even though I'm allergic to their cats and to fancy dress and to putting on accents).
I went to a talk put on by Progress Educational Trust - The Birds, The Bees and Fertility Treatment: A Sting in the tale?' which was very interesting. It was about whether fertility should be covered in secondary schools as part of sex ed. The panel included a fertility specialist who was concerned that people are unaware of the limitations of fertility, that fertility drops sharply for a woman after the age of 35 and that people don't realise that egg freezing/IVF is not a magical guarantee. There was also a woman who runs girl's schools and she thought that to cover fertility during sex ed would put more pressure on girls than necessary. And a sex educator who believes that current sex ed overall needs an overhaul.
I think sex ed is extremely important and certainly when I was at school it wasn't good enough. It was very vague, basic and was mainly puberty and use contraception or you will get an STD or pregnant. I remember being told to 'just say no'. It didn't prepare me at all. I got most of my info from books and women's magazines. 'More' magazine's position of the fortnight! Ha! (I thought people were really doing those and now I seriously doubt it...most of them were ridiculous!)
I think fertility should be included because I believe in giving people the facts. Not to make fertility as a massive thing but part of a general education, with more emphasis on healthy relationships and consent.
I treated myself to a jar of Pip & Nut Coconut Almond Butter! I'd been eyeing it up for a while but resisting due to the £3.99 price tag. When I got back from New York though, I was still in holiday mode and went for it and its DELICIOUS. Mmmmmm, so nice to have a new toast topping!
I saw maybeshewill at Koko - I believe it was their last gig :( and I only heard them for the first time last year! At least I got to enjoy them live twice.
I also kept going to chicken restaurants! The amazing Chicken Town in Tottenham and Nando's. I love Nando's. Stu and I had our first date in Nando's! People find it odd and say 'but aren't you a vegetarian?'. However, Nando's is almost like a vegetarian restaurant with a chicken theme! So many veggie options AND so many hot sauces.
And April wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Shell Show in Theydon Bois. My dad has collected shells since childhood and he sells there twice a year.
How was your April? Was your sex ed as rubbish as mine? And did you ever read 'More' magazine?

One South African family will change their home to help change the world. Today the Ngewana family launched their public journey of greening their home and lifestyle. Bulelwa Ngewana, the Mother of the family says: "We've always had good intentions, but haven't been sure about where to start.
So we're taking on the My Green Home challenge, and we'll be getting help with training and a sponsored green 'makeover'." The Ngewanas are improving their habits and will install energy-efficiency and green equipment, to show others how to save money by going green.
Zwelethu the Father explains: "Our goal is to cut our electricity consumption by 15% with 'no cost' changes and with equipment take this to 40% percent in just three months". They are also aiming to reduce water by 20% and recycle 75% of their waste, and they are challenging other South Africans to join them in taking action at home.
Starting this week, South Africans can learn and save along with the Ngewenas, following their journey at www.mygreenhome.org.za and on Twitter (@mygreenhomesa). The website has useful advice and resources to get started, based on cost criteria. Regular competitions will reward people who participate, with a range of green prizes and a grand prize of another 'green home makeover'.

White noise is a random signal (or process) with a flat power spectral density. In other words, the signal's power spectral density has equal power in any band, at any center frequency, having a given bandwidth. White noise is considered analogous to white light which contains all frequencies.

DC: Thanks. Yeah, I was referring to that song when I thought of the title. I think I remember the wordings as well. I also remember how everyone unknowingly slaughtered the pronunciation of the lyrics =) I am sure you mean solitude. I don't think too much of solidarity is a bad thing ;)

Vinaceous is a brand that's hard to ignore. Like a troupe of circus performers, these colourfully dressed wines have been pirouetting through my tasting room for the past couple of years, each of the eight wines bearing a terrific label featuring bizarre scenes from the world of 1930s-1940s circus and showbiz.
The names give you a clue. Snake Charmer McLaren Vale shiraz (tastings), Red Right Hand Margaret River shiraz grenache tempranillo (tastings), Raconteur Margaret River cabernet sauvignon (tastings), and Voodoo Moon malbec (tasting), are all $25 and all good. The cheaper $21 range includes Salomé Rosé (tastings), Divine Light Sauvignon Blanc (tastings), Shakre Chardonnay (tasting), and Sirenya Pinot Grigio (tastings).
Each wine represents a different personality, including men, women, angels, demons, mermaids and mythical creatures. They are the brainchild of Perth based designer Nick Stacy and Margaret River winemaker Michael Kerrigan, formerly of Howard Park and now of Hayshed Hill. The NSW distributor is Young & Rashleigh (well, it had to be, didn't it, with a name like that!)
The website is worth a look (vinaceous.com.au) and make sure you watch the movie. But what does vinaceous mean? Answer: anything relating to or containing wine, or having a colour suggestive of red wine. In other words, we are all vinaceous!

How To Watch 'Hidden Figures' for Free and Ava DuVernay's '13th' in Public
Nominated for three Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Hidden Figures has proven to be a popular hit, already earning more than $132 million at the box office in the U.S. Telling the tale of a team of African-American women who proved themselves to be invaluable during the early years of the U.S. space program, the movie has delighted audiences -- see some of the fan reviews at Fandango -- and critics alike.
Now Hidden Figures will screen in select theaters for free on Saturday, February 18, courtesy of Fox and AMC Theatres. The program has been arranged in honor of Black History Month; screenings will be held in Los Angeles; Miami; Atlanta; Chicago; New Orleans; Baltimore; Washington; New York City; Detroit; Dallas; Oakland, California.; St. Louis; and Charlotte, North Carolina. More details are available at The Hollywood Reporter.
Ava DuVernay's 13th, nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary, frankly examines the prison system in the United States and considers how it reflects a history of racial inequality. Even before the movie received an Oscar nomination, it won widespread critical acclaim.
13th has been available to watch on Netflix since October 2016, but not everyone has Netflix. Beyond that, 13th is the type of documentary that people want to talk about afterwards. Advocacy organizations hosted dozens of screenings across the country last fall and Netflix now says that many educational institutions have asked for permission to screen the documentary. So Netflix has decided to grant public screening access to the movie.
As explained at Variety, that means it may be shown in "classrooms, community groups, book clubs, and other educational settings." In practical terms, the movie may be watched via the streaming service in a public environment, per THR. That should lead to a lot of spirited, post-screening conversations.

Scott Rayner hovered at the edge of space, scanning the Earth for any trace of his mother or grandfather as he waited for his dad to appear. Soon a faint green star winked into existence, then grew to a streaking emerald comet.
Waiting for his father to hit the atmosphere, Scott prepared to match his speed. But he wasn't prepared for the sight of the Green Lantern vanishing as he hit the fringes of Earth's atmosphere, a green contrail the only clue he had been there.
Having just witnesses a second parent vanish in the span of an hour, Scott began to freak out."What the Hell?" he shouted, looking around. He quickly scanned the area around his father's last position. While he didn't find any trace of his father's familiar energy signature, he did detect something else, something dark.
As quickly as the panic had hit him, Scott's brain began to work. The words of Ted Grant echoed through his mind. "Doesn't matter how hard she hits you, kid. What matters is how quick you hit back."
Scott figured he had to do something, and he might need to step up. His parents had made sure he had the willpower, self-control and skills his powers required, making him train with both Ted Grant and Kilowog, but they had kept him away from their work. His father always said he could become a hero "When the time was right."
Scott wasn't sure that the time was right, but it was necessary. The young man's ring flared, shifting his shirt into a facimile of his grandfather's uniform. A dark green mask formed on his face, and he held his ring before his eyes.
"Earth calling Oa. Earth calling Oa. Hal, John, 'Wog, anyone there?"
Kilowog's face appeared before Scott. "What's up, Poozer?"
"We got a situation on Earth. Mom vanished, I can't detect Granddad Alan and Dad disappeared when he hit the upper atmosphere."
He paused, choosing his next words carefully. "I know I'm not technically a member of the Corps, but right now I'm the only Lantern on Earth, and you've trained me in ringslinging. I've gotta call an SP-4902. Earth is under planetary quarantine."
The image of Kilowog nodded. "Fair enough, kid. Your pop always said you were gonna be a deputy in 2814 when the time came."
Next to the alien's face, Hal Jordan appeared. "Kilowog is right. You're the current Earth GL, Scotty. I'll let K'dhyzn and Ssarrvaahg know, they'll throw a cordon up around the solar system. Let us know as soon as you find something."
"Roger that, Uncle Hal. Scott out."
The images of the Lanterns faded, and Scott dove for the last place his mother had been, the JSA Brownstone.

DRUM! has learned that Yamaha Drums will announce today the signing of Jimmy Chamberlin to their artist roster. Renowned for his work with Smashing Pumpkins and the alternative band Zwan, and more recently his jazz fusion outfit Jimmy Chamberlin Complex and his collaboration with Chicago jazz saxophonist Frank Catalano, Chamberlin has been a major drumming influence for 25 years.
On his return to Yamaha Chamberlin has chosen to play Yamaha Absolute Hybrid Maple with Polar White finish, which blends his signature feel, sound and dynamics. He's also picked out snares including the Yamaha 14″ x 6.5″ Recording Custom Aluminum and the 14″ x 6″ Absolute Hybrid Maple.
DRUM! spoke with Yamaha Drums Artist Relations Manager Greg Crane about welcoming Chamberlin back to Yamaha. "When Jimmy played the hybrid maple he said these were some of the best drums he ever played," said Crane. "If you play a multi-tom setup, hybrid maple is perfect because of the separation you can get between each drum."
Jazz Beginnings
Though known for his work on the Pumpkins early recordings, which feature the most furious toms since Keith Moon, Chamberlin's recent work has shown he's a lifelong student of drumming in many styles. He started playing at the age of nine, and rapidly progressed through lessons under Charles Adams, who would go on to play with Yanni. During his teen years, he went on to study Latin, Brazilian and big band techniques. Chamberlin cites jazz musicians Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich, as well as rock drummers Keith Moon, Ian Paice and John Bonham as major influences, shaping the style he brings to Smashing Pumpkins.
Following 1991's Gish, Smashing Pumpkins broke into the mainstream market in 1993 with their second album, Siamese Dream. Through extensive touring and their 1995 follow-up, the double album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, the group built a large, dedicated fan base and signature style that continues to reach the masses today.
"Yamaha Drums are the sound on my best-selling records and the accompaniment to my biggest and proudest musical moments," notes Chamberlin. "The versatility of these drums continues to be unmatched by any other brand. These days, the scope of the music that I play is such that I need an instrument that can take me from a small jazz club to an arena to a festival, and Yamaha provides me with that flexibility. I couldn't be happier to be back!"
Chamberlin will be joining Smashing Pumpkins on their upcoming Shiny And Oh So Bright tour in July 2018.

To the editor:
We have an entire segment of our population that is taxed without representation: teens.
I am heartened that several teens have decided to run for governor of the state of Kansas because too many teens are taken advantage of by too many employers.
The National Association of College Stores states that the average college student spends $655 just on textbooks every year. For teens making minimum wage, that means they have to work more than 90 hours to pay just for textbooks; that's not counting fees and tuition, not to mention daily living costs.
Is it any wonder, then, that so many young adults have to continue living with their parents while going to college?
Imagine spending a few hundred dollars to take a course after which you are certified by the Red Cross to be fully trained to perform a life-saving job.
But then you're only offered a little above minimum wage to perform that job.
How committed would you be to saving people's lives?
While the national average wage for lifeguards is nearly $11 per hour, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, with some experienced lifeguards earning $16 per hour, lifeguards in Leavenworth get paid minimum wage or a little more in most cases.
Yet, when Leavenworth residents want access to public information, we have to pay the City Clerk's office staff $20 per hour for retrieving that information.
While it takes some basic knowledge to look up information, lifeguarding requires several rescue skills that few clerks will ever achieve, such as water rescue techniques, CPR, use of the AED and various methods of first aid. Most lifeguards are also told they are personally responsible for the safety of everyone in the water where they work, even though many states do not specify how many lifeguards should be present at any particular pool.
According to the Recreational and Operational Ordinance for Local Health Departments put out by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, "all Category I swimming pools must provide an adequate number of lifeguards" and "all lifeguards will be certified by the American Red Cross" (Personnel and Supervision).
How many lifeguards are "adequate?" Let's hope you never have to find out.
I make certain to thank the lifeguards who work at our local pools because, while it is their job to ensure our safety, a little gratitude often helps them feel less stressed and more attentive.
The least Leavenworth could do for our front line first responders is make certain they all are paid adequate wages. The least most employers can do for our young people's future is to pay them livable wages.
The rest of us should seriously consider voting for a teen for governor.

It is no small thing to receive a quilt for a gift. If you do remember what your Mama taught you and say thank you. The following is my thank you to the ladies of the Frisco Quilt Guild. May it inspire you to your own epistle of thanksgiving.
Thank you.
That is the gist of what I want to say, but the words seem too small, too plain, too ordinary for such a splendid gift. They don't laugh or cry with joy. They don't brush up against the cool surface of a fresh quilt and breath deeply of the love that went into making it. They don't sparkle with glimpses of personalities shining through the bits of fabric and thread.
I know that it is a tricky thing to make a gift of a quilt, especially if the gift is meant to commemorate something. It isn't so difficult to make any old quilt for the odd birthday or wedding, but a quilt intended to mark the passing or the achieving of a particular event by a particular person, well, it is like trying to find the perfect greeting card. When it is a group effort, it is like trying to find the perfect greeting card by committee. It takes courage.
Receiving a quilt can be a bit overwhelming. If you are familiar with the process it is easy to be struck by the depth of work that went into each aspect. Regardless of how the rest of the quilt hits you, (and make no mistake this hits me somewhere between "Oh my Gosh!" and "Shut my mouth!") you have to be floored by that. It is no small thing to be the focus of someone's attentions for the number of hours that it takes to see a quilt from start to finish.
A quilt is a particularly personal gift. They are a bit larger than the pen set given at graduations. (I have a couple in the back of the drawer in my desk, replaced by the age of computers and my lovely I-pad.) They are certainly larger than the clocks given at retirement parties. A quilt can not be set indiscreetly on a back shelf and left to accumulate dust. It is meant to be at very least seen, and at best gathered around the recipient as if to impart the warmest of embraces from a distant friend. A quilt is a shield, a comfort, and an encouragement to the one it is gifted to.
If you were to ask me to choose a quilt to be gifted to me, I couldn't do it. However, I know I would want it to reflect the giver and say something about the relationship I had with them. Given the personal nature of a quilt, I would want it to fit me as well. That seems like a great deal to ask, much more than I would ever ask of anyone who isn't my mother.
You've conquered all of these things and created a splendid gift for me.
The color and style of this quilt is not very traditional....neither am I....yet it seems to respect the traditions of quilting and design. It doesn't so much create a mood as make a declaration. Joy is spoken here and love and friendship and just a little bit of nuttiness. Skill and balance are also spoken for. Your fine workmanship tells me that this isn't the quilt that was made "just for..." insert kids, picnics, community service, any recipient that comes to the tip of your tongue when you sigh and give in to the temptation to do less than your best. This quilt sings of the freedom to create and share your creation with others who are like minded. It is not bound by the traditions that formed it.
This quilt was made for me, by you.
I have to say, yet again, that I am honored to have served the guild in the capacity of president. If this quilt, even in a small way, reflects the effect that I have had upon the guild, then I am touched to my very core. Thank you all.
