Each piece of jewelry has been handcrafted here in the USA!
Legacy metal jewelry was developed after careful research and experience in knowing where design meets quality. Many of the pieces are made from Argentium silver which is milled in the USA. This metal meets the highest standards for 93.5% silver and make a great option for those with sensitive skin. At Mune Studios it is fused with a torch, hammered, and then even hardened in the stove before being polished and completed for you.
Each piece is made by hand at my small studio in the Pacific NW. The designs make a wonderful soft twinkle chime which will inspire smiles. The tactile feel is very reassuring, and unique. Let me help you tell your story through custom sensory journey jewelry.
Special thanks to Mich Lundgren of Wilde Woman Design (http://wildewomandesign.com) for the wearing photos.

It's my turn to share a creation with you all, and this time I have used Exotic Beauty- isn't she special? I honestly don't know how Andreia manages to create such stunning digis every time!! She was so much fun to colour with my new Clean Color water markers.
The papers used are from the Dovecraft Bohemian range, and compliment the image perfectly. The frame around the bird was cut on my Silhouette Cameo, and the flowers I used are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
We love to see your creations using MoonFlower images, so if you haven't already then why not join our Facebook fan page, where you can join in the chat, share your work and keep up to date with all the latest news. We'd love to see you there.

Create a private nook, here is one of my favorite bedroom decorating tips I like to share, and that is to create a quite place for yourself in your bedroom where you can sit and read quietly. Make a private reading or lounging space by using comfortable chairs and foot stool and placing them at the end of the bed. buy luxurious linens, as interior decorating rule states, the use of beautiful fabrics will help outfit your bedroom. Linens tend to add comfort to the bedroom. Purchase sheets that are made out of 100% cotton with a thread count of around 350 or even more.
One wall might be decorated with zebra and other zoo animal art with zebra stuffed animals arranged on a black and white children is rug. The window to her bedroom might be framed by stenciled butterflies. Beautiful framed butterfly artwork will give the room a happy and joyous feel. All her favorite interests can be showcased in her room in a delightful and pleasing way.

text: The CD "Heartfelt Expressions" is a group of original songs for the Native American flute that captures in sound an inner peace and respect for life that can nourish the well-being of every living spirit. Many of the songs are spiritually based and conceived deep within the heart, while others simply reflect the love of life through the observations of nature and humanity. It is my hope that as you listen to these original songs recorded on a variety of Native American flutes you will be refreshed, at peace and enjoying the precious gift of life.

LOS ANGELES -- Bridgestone Corp. recalled 42 Steeltex radial tires on Wednesday for the same type of defect that led to a massive recall of its Wilderness tires, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The NHTSA announced the recall of Steelex tires manufactured between March 9 and March 15 because of potential tread separation defects that "can possibly lead to a vehicle crash, resulting in serious injury or death," it said on its Web site.
Bridgestone/Firestone has advised NHTSA that all of the tires in question have been removed from the field, the Web site said.
The voluntary recall came in the midst of a NHTSA review of whether 27.5 million Steeltex R4S, R4SII and A/T tires should be recalled over tread separation defects.
The agency is considering whether to reopen its investigation of the tires at the behest of Los Angeles attorney Joseph Lisoni, who filed a $3 billion proposed class action last year accusing Bridgestone of concealing defects in the heavy-duty tire.
The lawsuit claims the tire, installed on 43 types of vehicles such as pickups, vans and mobile homes, caused thousands of serious accidents including fatalities.
NHTSA's decision on whether to reopen its investigation of Steeltex tires is expected by May 27.
Bridgestone is still fighting rollover lawsuits in courts across the United States stemming from tread separation in its Wilderness tires, which were standard equipment on the Ford Motor Co. Explorer and other SUVs. About 20 million Wilderness tires were recalled, 14 million by Ford and 6.5 million by Firestone.
"We don't know exactly what they are up to. Maybe this is the first crack in the dam," Lisoni said of the Steeltex recall.
An attorney for Bridgestone said the recall was unrelated to the lawsuit and would not affect it.

I have installed the windows version of GMAT onto my Windows7 system computer. I then proceeded to run through several tutorials using GUI and GMAT functioned as the tutorials said it would. When It came time to create my own example however GMAT would crash and the program would close. My colleague downloaded the Mac version of GMAT and he has been able to successfully run the same example script. There were occasions, however, where GMAT also crashed for him as well.
The Error message for Windows and Mac reads:
**GMAT.exe has stopped working** (Checking for a solution and will notify you when one is found)
Then the program proceeds to exit and the GMAT file is closed.
Is there a compatibility issue with GMAT for Windows and Macs?
Any information on this matter would be much appreciated.

Dan Majesky of Cincinnati shared the most beautiful, heartfelt pregnancy announcement with a sonogram photo—but it wasn't your typical pregnancy announcement.
If you've never experienced infertility, you may not know about the minutiae of all the things you go through. And if you're lucky enough to end up a parent at the end of the journey, there is no greater gift.
Although his announcement, posted on Facebook, is more than 3,300 words long, it's definitely worth reading the entire thing.
Majesky chronicles the struggle he and wife Leah have been through on the road to becoming parents that started three years ago.
Between hormone injections, insurance, a dwindling egg supply, IUI (that's intrauterine insemination, for the uninitiated), waiting, testing, disappointment—all on repeat—and then miscarriage, it's one rough road to travel.
And when that first glimmer of hope in the form of a flickering heartbeat on an ultrasound disappears, it is absolutely soul-crushing.
"No one gets on Facebook and tells their friends. It's specifically why you wait to tell anyone," Majesty wrote about the couple's experience losing a baby. "But then you have no one to tell. When a family member dies, you can share your grief. With a miscarriage, you would have to tell people that someone who will never be born, who they had never heard of and will never meet, but who meant the world to you, is gone. And you don't have the strength to get into it. You tell your parents, maybe a close friend, maybe your boss."
Then as you continue to struggle and see others experiencing the joys of parenthood, sometimes it's almost too much to bear, Majesky wrote.
"You see your friends getting pregnant, and you get a little sad. But you get mad at yourself because you want to feel happy for other people, and that's not fair to them. And then the 17-year-old across the street gets pregnant, and you get a little sadder. And your cousins get pregnant, and you get a little sadder. And you see people scream at their kids, and beat them in Kroger, and you just want to die because you would give anything to have a child throwing a tantrum in the cereal aisle."
Then, one day, his wife took an at-home pregnancy test and the faintest line showed up—and they were pregnant. They had their first obstetrician appointment and discovered they're having a girl, and she'll be born in November.
The happy dad's Facebook post has been shared more than 4,300 times and has more than 40,000 likes.

Door Neptunus travelled to our field on Saturday for the second game of the series. My roommate got the start for us today and was solid through 3 inning before running into a bit of trouble in the 4th allowing 4 runs to score. The wind was howling out to right field and that helped the balls get into the gaps safely instead of being routine outs. He allowed 1 run again in the 5th before coming out of the game in the 6th and handed the ball to Steven Van Groningen.
During this game we proved you don't need to get hits to score runs. After putting together quality at bats we were able to score 1 run in the 5th, 3 in the 7th, and then 1 in the 8th to tie the game. Four of those runs came in via a bases loaded walk or a hit by pitch once again proving that baseball is one funny game. All of a sudden we were tied at 5-5 heading into the last inning.
Steven came out to throw the 9th inning and got the first two outs quite quickly and then the elements played a big in how the game was decided. The Neptunus batter hit what looked like a routine fly ball, but it got caught in the wind which carried it just over the wall to give Neptunus a 6-5 lead. We came back out to try and tie it up in the 9th but went down in order as Dushan Ruzic closed out the win.
On Sunday we had to travel back out to Rotterdam and avoid the sweep. Things didn't go to plan as Neptunus scored first but we instantly replied by scoring 2 runs on an errant pick off attempt to 2nd. The pitcher attempted a pick off, but threw it away. As the center fielder ran in to pick up the ball, he missed it which allowed the runner from 1st to score as well. Those were the only runs we would score all game as Neptunus put on runs slowly to run out 6-2 winners and finish off the sweep. I came into the game in the 7th inning and allowed 1 hit in 2/3 of an inning.
This week we take on Sparta/Feyenoord who are the last place team in the league. Hopefully we can take all 3 games from them and get closer to clinching that playoff spot.

Refugees and Rape, Wrong Man Selected as the Athlete of the Year and Clowns VS Bigots
Dear, reader, this is an archived post and there may be some errors in code. They are likely to be minor and shouldn't disturb the reading experience. However, should you encounter an incomprehensible problem, please send us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll look into it. Thank you.
The shocking comments of the Helsinki deputy police chief, Ilkka Koskimäki, caused an uproar last week after he insisted that sexual assaults in the streets of the capital were unknown before the refugee-wave hit ashore in 2015. The essence of the article was his controversial words while Koskimäki sitting high enough to have a birds-eye-view. I also happened to witness a scene during the New Year's celebrations that possibly was related to the events. No xenophobia here. Just a journalist doing his work.
Nevertheless, Koskimäki's comments and my observations, whether accurate or not, get buried under the heavy hammer of statistics, when looking at the big picture.
In 2015, about 20 refugees were suspected of sexual assaults from a total of 931 reported cases of rape and aggravated rape, according to Tommi Ree, the superintendent of the National Police Board. The number equals 2.148 per cent of the total. Less than a drop in the Töölö Bay.
On another note, the statistics reveal that the migrants who arrived in Finland seem to have a relatively short fuse. They are a suspect of more than 200 assaults last year. The migrants, however, were not on a killing spree attacking native Finns – the hallucinated nightmare brought up multiple times in the speeches of bigots. The vast amount of the brawls were between the refugees themselves.
[alert type=blue ]The vast amount of the brawls were between the refugees themselves.[/alert]
I attended the Sports Gala last week's Tuesday at the Helsinki Arena. It's an annual event where, among others, the Athlete of the Year is selected by the critical jury of the National Organisation of Sports Journalists'. I've got major problems with some of the selections.
I can't understand how the javelin thrower, Tero Pitkämäki, won the Athlete of the Year award for the third time. Don't get me wrong, Pitkämäki is talented and one of the best javelin throwers to ever have pushed off from this frosty country, but he came third in the World Championships in Athletics in Peking in July.
Let me suggest a few alternatives for the prize.
2015 is finally wrapped up and it has been one heck of a year!! One more time, a big thanks to all the people who have been supporting me through the whole year it means so much to me really looking forward to this year 2016 and what kinda challenges I will be able to face with! #happynewyear #keeponsmiling
How about Jenna Laukkanen? A young swimmer in her '20s, who won gold in women's breaststroke in both 50 and 100 metres courses in the European Short Course Swimming Championships in Israel in December.
3×180 paused, long stroke A video posted by Freddi Smulter (@superhurri) on
Or Fredrick Smulter, 31, the world champion of bench press, taking off from his family piggery turned into a gym in Ostrobothnia? He won the title in Sweden in May in the category of men weighting over 120 kilos. I had a brief conversation with him at the gala.
Why didn't you receive recognition at the gala? Why didn't you receive any award?
"It just goes without saying that some sports are considered above others," Smulter said in a tailored dark suit matching his dark short hair and square jaw. It's not easy to find a proper jacket, when one's chest measurement is one and a half meters. "I was bitter at first. But I got over it."
[alert type=blue ]"It just goes without saying that some sports are considered above others."[/alert]
The treatment fullfills the word unfair in so many ways. The man, after all, won the title as a result of extending 401 kilos! Clean of doping, if I may add. He could push off his chest five sports writers, weighing an average of 85 kilos but he was not even listed among the 85 candidates for the Athlete of the Year award . . .
My third shot for the winner is the one and only, heavyweight boxer Robert Helenius, 32. He has overcome a gold medal worth of injuries and bullshit from his previous team and doubters. The undefeated Helenius is one which Russians would call a real man, muzhik. In December, he pocketed another scalp after winning the European championship title in a thrilling fight under the eyes of a home audience of over 13,000 at Helsinki Arena. Helenius' placing among the candidates is 51 . . . and so I crunch the list into trash bin. "I wish that Finland will do better in sports next year, so that the Athlete of the Year award is not won with a bronze medal," Pitkämäki said in his award speech.
[alert type=blue ]"I wish that Finland will do better in sports next year, so that the Athlete of the Year award is not won with a bronze medal."[/alert]
Meanwhile, a group of clowns, Loldiers of Odin, is representing Finland in the headlines across the globe. On Saturday, they hopped through the centre of Tampere dressed as a bunch of clandestine clowns, to meet and make fun of their primary target: Soldiers of Odin, a street patrol, formed to "fight the fear caused by immigrants." Especially among women.
Soldiers of Odin, which originates from the northern city of Kemi, consists of about 400-500 people in the whole country. They say their members are "ordinary citizens" with a mission to "secure the streets of Finland in as many cities as possible."
While Soldiers of Odin hit the streets of Tampere on Saturday night, Loldiers of Odin cartwheeled the same streets with a group of 20 people in a frost of about -17 degrees.
In a video, a tall man dressed in a purple-striped bathrobe and a helmet with horns and wearing a mask with a thick beard, high fives people having a smoke outside the bars. "I am Odin," he exclaimed referring to the one-eyed god of war and death and the sky as well as wisdom and poetry in Norse mythology.
The video climaxes with the clowns going toe-to-back against Soldiers of Odin, about a dozen guys, many wearing bomber jackets walking away in a tidy line along the zebra crossings. "When we meet next time, we'll have brand new fun and games!" the clowns sing while shaking tambourines.
However, the video doesn't show the peace-making tactics of the police, who visited the scene with a mission to de-escalate the provocative measures of the clowns. Maybe it was because the lack of drama: no one was apprehended nor did anyone file a report of an offence.
Hilmar Örn, the head of an old pagan Norse religion Ásatrú Association, a subset of Heathenism, is sad because one of their most important gods is associated with an anti-immigrant association. "It's terrible. Those people don't understand the whole point," he said in an interview for NYT.
He gets stunned again and again after extreme right-wing organisations use Norse mythology as a tool of their hate. Heathenism is a religion of tolerance and conservation. "Heathenism is in practice a beautiful model for multiculturalism," he said.
[alert type=blue ]Örn gets stunned again and again after extreme right-wing organisations use Norse mythology as a tool of their hate.[/alert]
One of the most important principles of the Ásatrú Association is to treat the fellow human with respect, whether one is the host or a guest. "It has nothing to do with white supremacy," Örn said.
According to Soldiers of Odin, "80 per cent of the amount refugee tourists should be diminished." In addition, "the practice of Islam should be banned in Finland." But hey, one can't argue that Soldiers of Odin is a cool name, involving a one-eyed god and all that . . . "We were pondering on many names for our group during last September. 'Soldiers of Odin' was the best according to the majority of our group," said the head of the organisation, Mika Ranta, and rank-and-filer, Kimmo Oksman, in an interview for a blog at a gas station in Kemi.

Tree Root Scanning Technology for the 21st Century
We tend to see a tree and expect it to be there forever unless it gets chopped down. But in reality trees can suffer from a number of problems, and without proper care and maintenance they may not be able to remain as tall and firm as they appear to be. Many trees end up falling over as a result of compromised roots. This could be due to a number of reasons, including decay, constricted growing conditions, or severance as a result of construction works. Thus root inspections need to be carried out so as to avoid these kinds of problems as much as possible. The first and most obvious way of carrying out such inspections is by excavating. However this is a risky procedure because digging or use air guns to remove the upper soil is very invasive.
A great alternative to this is using Tree Radar. This is a non-invasive method of carrying out tree root inspections. The root location is easily found, along with its depth and layout. The layout refers to the density and the direction from the trunk. During this inspection it will also be possible to detect any pipes, ducts and cables that are beneath the ground. Tree Radar can scan through soil and grass, as well as paving, tarmac and concrete. The depth penetration is very good and it requires minimal setups and scanning. Multi-line scans can be carried out within an hour generally. One can also scan in straight lines parallel to the tree, or else in concentric circles around the tree. Even small structural roots can be detected. Thus there is no doubt that Tree Radar is the more effective and accurate tool for tree inspections. It is often referred to as a virtual excavator, and it is indeed so since it is totally non-intrusive.
Once the inspection is carried out a Tree Radar survey will need to be made. Tree Radar surveys offer a comprehensive overview of what was discovered during the inspection. These surveys are very important as a foundation for certain decisions that may need to be made. There is no denying that tree roots play a significant role in sustainable forest productivity. As a result these tree radar surveys shed some light as to how natural disturbances could have had an effect on tree productivity, carbon sequestration and other important aspects. Tree radar surveys also offer valuable information to ecologists and foresters when it comes to learning how different techniques, such as site preparation, harvesting methods, and cultural practices, might have had an effect too. Property owners where there are trees, and those who are interested in construction works at a site where trees are present, will also need the information acquired from tree radar surveys to assess the feasibility of certain projects as well as establishing protection zones during construction works. Tree radar surveys are also used by local authorities to ensure that proactive steps are taken to help urban trees thrive, since these surveys can actually shed some light to the tree health.
So evidently tree radar surveys offer a lot of valuable information to a wide spectrum of people who may be interested in the health and safeguarding of trees. The Tree Radar is an instrument that has enabled the inspections to be carried out in a whole new way, and being able to understand the structure of trees and their root mass is very helpful. Both the health as well as the structural integrity of a tree are important considerations, and they actually have an effect on various people and numerous decisions. Besides it is quite simple to carry out the tree survey. The subsurface root scans can be made and mapped in about half an hour, and through this scan it is possible to map not only the structural root density but also its location and depth. Not to mention the fact that there is no need for any trunk preparations. The trunk gets scanned in multiple elevations and that will be enough to map the decay of the trunk accurately.
The quantitative as well as graphical results that are derived from tree radar surveys are very valuable. It is important that these surveys are carried out by professional arborists and arboricultural specialists as they are best used in conjunction with other diagnostic techniques. This will lead to detailed results and a proper assessment of a tree's health and structural integrity.

Panels from "Batman Goes to Washington" in Batman (1940 series) #28 (April-May 1945), script by Alvin Schwartz, pencils and inks by Jerry Robinson, letters by Ira Schnapp
No one would definitely call Batman a patriotic character (aside from that one time where he dressed up as Star-Spangled Batman), but during World War II it was pretty much required for you to not only be patriotic but to turn in your old comics for scrap paper to...uh...I dunno, build tanks out of. I'm sure Bruce Wayne converted many of his ball-point pen and rubber glove factories to making big-ass guns for the Allies, and he likely spear-headed several local Gotham City events and rallies to buy bonds, but Batman himself (and, oh yeah, Robin) certainly had adventures that inspired a proud tear as you salute the ol' red stripes and White Stripes and all 48 good old American contiguous states. No foolin' though, Batman would salute as soon as Alaska joined the Union. Hawaii, though, as far as Batman was concerned heck with it.
This is a story of defiance, not against the government ( goodness no, National woukldn't dare in the '40s), and not even against the Axis powers, tho' there were plenty of cover images devoted to that, most infamously and wrongly Action Comics #58. No, this is about not only fighting criminal organizations rampant during the war (through use of a government crime database) as well as giving reformed ex-cons a chance to work in the wartime society. It was definitely a simpler time let's face it, Batman's pride in the government crime database doesn't fit with his modern "don't trust nobody" ethos. But it's done with such a light touch it's forgivable, and give yourself the suspension of disbelief in a comic book world where the government is trying to help us all and bad guys can reform. Remember: once upon a time Gotham City was bright and cheerful and sunny and while clowns and quizzers freely roamed the streets, they were carefree pranksters who would have fun on top of giant appliances and really no more harm to anyone than one of those rubber-masked monsters those meddling kids chased down.
Bruce Wayne ponders the plight of reformed ex-cons who have gone straight but can't get jobs. Hmmm, too bad there aren't any main industries in Gotham for them to apply to. Instead, put on the old cape 'n' cowl and start a social media movement. Social media, in this case, meant that Batman asked to interrupt The Jack Benny Program to lecture on the radio for thirty minutes about his new employment idea. Gotham City warmed to the idea, but Don Wilson was furious.
Ex-cons reduced to doing nothing but sitting around, playing cards, and on average wearing one-third of a green suit like the idea, and Batman reads his fan mail after Alfred has already opened up all the envelopes and removed the snapshots that weren't appropriate for Robin to see.
Batman gets a letter inviting him to speak in front of the Senate, and WHOO HOO ROAD TRIP! This issue marks the first appearance of the Batmobile's famous Bat-Trailer, and NO I AM NOT KIDDING ABOUT THAT
Unfortunately, some real and unrepentant criminals want to pressure the Senate from voting for Batman's Jobs for Ex-Cons Bill. Rich private organizations trying to pressure and influence the government through shady means? Man, I'll believe in Superman, but this is a little crazy. Meanwhile, Batman gives the ex-cons a patriotic tour of Washington, prompting them to stand up straight and be as rock-steady as the Giant Ape sitting in the Lincoln Memorial WAIT A MINUTE GIANT APE?!? YOU BLEW IT UP! DARN YOU ALL TO HECK!
Time to visit FBI Headquarters and see how their patented 3 by 5 card system helps stamp out racketeers and fifth-columnists across the country! Crime cards! Collect 'em all!
Then they see the almost photographically detailed Capitol Building eriously, nice job, Jerry Robinson! I'm sure if Bob Kane had done the Capitol it would have been red. Meanwhile...suspenseful caption strikes!
Batman and Robin are coshed by the bad crooks and that robot from Planet Express and spirited away to a warehouse, which only goes to prove: Golden Age Batman and Robin must have had some serious head injuries. Also: hash is settled.
And the good ex-cons hunt for and release Batman! To be fair, it was six days later, and they'd put 3,300 miles on the Batmobile joyriding around the Capitol area, but in the end they did the right thing.
And now, in the spirit of Batman Returns and Batman Forever...Batman Filibusters! Happy Fourth of July, everyone!

A few weeks ago the Scud (Tom- my roommate) asked me a simple question that was rather entertaining in the complexity of the answer. Anyone who's known me for long knows that's not that difficult to achieve. Simple question = long winded drawn out answer. The question in this case, how many days have you slept in your own bed this year (2013)?
Hmm, Simple enough question... my response – well, what do you constitute "my bed"? Victoria? Derby? Or is it the bed I've spent the most consecutive nights? In which case neither of the former. So, the answer (to date) looks something like this..
Santa Cruz, CA – 1 2nights - Jan 01 – 12
Victoria, BC – 2 nights – Jan 13, 14
In Transit, Victoria – Vancouver – Airtransat - Derby – Mallorca - 9 nights (4 different "beds") – Jan 15 – 23
Mallorca, SP – 10 nights – Jan 24 – Feb 2
Derby, UK - 12 nights – Feb 3 – 12, 25
Champagne, FR – 1 night – Feb 13
road side motel, FR – 1 night – Feb 14
Trans en Provence, FR – 2 nights – Feb 15, 16
Erics House (Hyeres), FR – 5 nights – Feb 17- 21
La Pouzin, FR – 2 nights – Feb 22, 23
Dijon, FR – 1 night – Feb 24
So the Simple answer now would obviously be…er, Santa Cruz?? Most successive nights in 1 bed, Right? I suppose if you really look at it I have spent more days in Derby, my "home" bed then anywhere else this year but MY STARS it doesn't feel that way! I honestly feel like I blinked on a Tuesday in December and now its nearly March!! What the hell just happened??
I've traveled more (distance) in the last 8 weeks then I have in the last 2 years combined and have ZERO lounge status to show for it! Damn. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not for 1 second complaining, I have enjoyed nearly every minute of this journey thus far, but all of this globe trotting would explain more then a few issues I'm facing in my life right now. 1) Sleep pattern, if you've had it - you know – Jet Lag is a bastard. That was by far the biggest struggle I faced the first almost 2 weeks. (still think there's improvements to be made in the sleep department) 2) Training consistency. It would be kind of comparable to trying to write a novel using only a laptop and having rolling black outs for 2 or 3 (or 5) days at a time. When it comes time to send in the first 3 chapters to the editor…there's more than a few gaps in the content quality. My training as of late seems to be much the same.
This year, as I'm coming to discover, will be all about making the learning curve over here as ridiculously steep as possible! Not just the racing but life in all aspects is just a bit different than the norm I've become so accustom to back in the safety blanket of Victoria. Good thing I'm always up for a challenge and at this point Britain has proven to be a more than worthy adversary. I'm confident I will prevail but like I said I need to button up this change in lifestyle toot-sweet!
I'm really looking forward to the next few weeks "at home" (term used loosely, only doing 1 day races that are within a days drive) to make a huge dent in this adaptation and really get the ball rolling with some consistency in training, sleeping, eating and everything else in my day to day life. Fingers crossed!
Oh ya, did another race in France on the weekend. Didn't go so well. Interestingly enough though I think it was the coldest race I've ever done, not the coldest I've ever been in a race but it was around 0C for the majority of the 5 hrs. So that was cool. Lots was learned over my time down in France and I'm incredibly grateful to the team for the opportunity and have full intentions of marking a massive improvement when lining up for my next race en` Francais.
Home now, next up, "The Sones" this weekend. More on that to come.
Stay tuned.
Here's a few shots to summarize the last week.

Riots and MobsMarch 17, 2015
Escaping from Riots and Flash Mobs
by Greg Ellifritz
I've read some articles by various "tactical gurus" advising that if people get caught up in a riot or confronted by looters, they should start cutting throats and shooting everyone in the face with their 9mm pistols to facilitate escape. There's certainly a time and place for such actions, but if you are smart, it will never come down to that. Let me share some of my experiences….

I have trouble believing it, but Urban Velo is reporting that the North American Handmade Bicycle Show will be in Richmond next year in late February.
Virginia isn't exactly a hotbed of frame building. Previous shows have been in California, Portland and Indianapolis, all of which have much bigger custom scenes. I seek out the coverage every year and drool on my keyboard over the bikes offered by Vanilla, IF, Cicli Polito, Black Sheep and many others. It's bike porn of the highest artistry. (That's this year's best in show above – an old-style grass track racer from Cycli Polito.)
Our own Jimmy Miller made the trip to Indianapolis this year to spread some of his Speedy's hot sauce love. If Urban Velo is to be believed, the trip will be much shorter this year. And I'll be making it. I may not be able to afford a custom bike, but that can't stop a boy from dreaming.
Wednesday update: Richmond show confirmed by Velonews!

Michael's basil seedlings have poked through their sleepy peat pot cocoons and unfurled their delicate tender leaves. As they bend toward the morning sun, they inspire dreams of midsummer caprese salads and genovese pestos. While we're weeks away from the sweltering dog days of summer and the height of basil season, a variety of vibrant pestos can be prepared from the gorgeous spring greens that dot the stands of our farmer's market.
Arugula Pesto Pizza.
Simple Pesto.
I dropped 2 cups of delicate Shelby County baby arugula into the bottom of a blender before adding
minced garlic, 1/3 cup toasted almonds, 1/3 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano, 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. After blending the ingredients into a loose pesto sauce, I scraped the sauce into a small bowl, covered it with plastic wrap, an set it aside.
Pizza Dough.
I kept it very basic by mixing 1 1/2 cups Weisenburger Mills all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sugar, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 3/4 cups lukewarm water in a large bowl. I pulled the dough into a rough ball, kneaded it for 5 minutes, plopped it back into the mixing bowl, brushed it olive oil, covered it, and let it rise for 2 hours.
When the dough doubled in size, I punched it down, dusted our well worn pizza stone with cornmeal, and pressed the dough into a clunky shaped pizza round. After smearing the arugula pesto over the top of the squishy dough, I dotted it fresh mozzarella cheese and split grape tomatoes. I brushed the exposed dough with olive oil, added thinly sliced onions, and showered the pizza with parmigiano-reggiano before sliding it
into a preheated 475 degree oven.
Within minutes, the pizza rippled and bubbled. When it was slightly blistered from the heat, I pulled it from the oven and set it aside to cool. While the oven was still hot, I roasted paper thin slices of prosciutto. The delicate fat rendered quickly, leaving the prosciutto crisped and caramelized. After plucking the pork cracklings from their fatty bath, I scattered them over the pesto pizza.
So, here's the deal. I expected the arugula pesto to have aggressive peppery undertones. Not at all. Tempered by the fruity olive oil, nutty reggiano, and oozing mozzarella, the pesto mellowed in the mix. As the pizza baked, everything melted and swirled together to create a fun topping for the pizza crust. The rich cheesy pesto sauce seemed almost creamy (the goo factor). While the salty sassy crunch of the crisped prosciutto shards balanced the slight peppery creaminess of the pesto, the roasted split tomatoes added bursts of sweet acidity.
For now, we can still dream about summer basil. Luckily, early season spring arugula pesto gave us a tasty hint of what's to come.

ANA PUSICA / Square and Circle
The exhibition ANA PUSICA / Square and Circle took place from 28th of April until 26th of May 2017. The opening day was on 27th of April 2017.
In Ana Pusica's work, the very action of painting is fundamental, it is the moment when physical impulses and visual imagination come together on the canvas. What matters most is the creative act itself.
The paintings are the expression of her subjectivity. They reflect poetry of her inner world with it's mixture of memories, ideas and quotations from her favorite authors. Within these works, the gesture is just as important as the subject, so far as it reveals the impulses or movements that are the embodiment of the artist´s thoughts. "I am someone who lives in my own bubble. Although it seems very quiet, only then I can truly express myself."
Ana Pusica's art is a physical act, direct, intuitive and in motion. There is energy in the pictures, that is why she likes to work on large formats so that she can put this concentrated force into the frame. "I try to create a new and interesting surface from repeating one motif several times by using a lot of different movements, gestures and randomness. From the mixture of surfaces and layers, something like a figurative image emerges at the end."
The idea behind the series of work "SQUARE AND CIRCLE" is to develop through the colors a materiality and dynamism, which allow the viewer to decide what is the story behind the figure. Sometimes, the painting's surfaces are heavily worked, sometimes they are expressively fluid or made of extravagant drips of paint. They are non-abstract, but not strictly figurative either. Though containing no identifiable portraits, her pictures evoke associations: red-hot magma, cheeky pinks and oranges or cloudy color spectrums. As a result, her artworks exude an 'intense lightness', and are making multiple layers of potential meaning.

Friday: Full Effort!
A whole new set of awesomeness at High Voltage this Fall? Can it be?
Yup – it's just how we roll! Check these events out and get in the game!
Upcoming Events at High Voltage:
- Saturday October 20 – Barbells For Boobs Workout – 9am
- Sunday October 28 – Kettlebell Cooking Class
- Saturday November 10 – Whole Life Challenge Finals
And that awesome happening with Team High Voltage isn't just on the competition field. Competing at events is largely a means to the end – staying consistent healthy and pushing yourself outside your comfort zone. And this is happening everywhere! In the past week I've seen Kathy DOUBLE her back squat PR! Frankie B has been using his regular goat work training to smash his Deadlift PR's and by setting his training on fire he's realizing numbers he didn't think he'd attain!
I've witnessed Crystal get her first Handstand Push Ups Craig dramatically improve his gymnastic skills and Alex improve his overall mobility for huge PR's. Tons of these small changes and improvements add up big!
And I get to see Lori and Norma prep for their first Oly weightlifting meet on Saturday November 17. They're training super hard & consistently – check out Lori receiving world class coaching advice from Emmy!
Much of the hard work our athletes do happens right along side everyone else. But by putting yourself on the line – by going outside of your comfort zone again and again by committing to be the best you can be – you've already started to make the real changes happen. That's the hardest part – and once you get that all that's left is the hard work and your best effort possible.
~Full Effort is Full Victory
Post your favorite pre-competition quote to comments.
Friday's Training:

It is the kind of thing I find so stupid. First because of course a word does not belong to a group of people and then, if the dictionary changes every year, it is because the language changes, evolves. Yes, you who is opposed to gay marriage, you do not speak like your ancestors. What a big news!
More seriously, as reports the Seattle Times, the Solicitor General's Office of the Attorney General's Office is responsible for ensuring that language on all state ballot measures is clear, concise and tries to be neutral. In crafting language for a referendum on the recently passed legislation, the state lawyers say that the measure indeed "alters the current meaning of the term marriage."
Use of the word "redefine" is key in the predictable fight over ballot language for Referendum 74, which, if enough valid signatures are gathered, would put the new law to a public vote in November.
On the other hand, the gay marriage supporters explain: "Marriage is not redefined by this law any more than voting was redefined by laws granting African Americans and women the right to vote," they say. And that's so true...

NSL Sample Script - Avoiding a Login Loop
Novell Cool Solutions: Tip
Digg This -
Slashdot This
Posted: 8 Feb 2006
A reader asked the following question:
"Can someone give some script on how to fix the following problem? When clicking Logoff in an IE app, NSL re-logs me back into the same IE app I just clicked Logoff for. Is there some redirecting script to stop this loop? I'm attempting to log out of IE apps, but NSL basically won't let me."
And here's the answer from Forum expert Eric:
Yes that is possible. You need to use a new variable (i.e., ?LoggedIn) that you set to "1" or "YES" when your user has logged in succesfully.
Now in the beginning of the script, you check to see if this variable is already set. If it is, you ask if they would like to log in again. If they choose not to, you redirect them to another page. In a nutshell your script would look something like this:
If ?LoggedIn Eq "1" MessageBox 'Would you like to login again?" -YesNo ?Choice If ?Choice Eq "Yes" Call Login Else GotoUrl "www.protocom.com" EndScript EndIf Else Call Login EndIf EndScript Sub Login Type $Username #1 Type $Password Password Set ?LoggedIn "1" EndSub

If you have no life, then you have no evolution. Following the laws of science and nature, how did that first life arise?2) How do you explain the origin of Grand Canyon without a world wide flood?3) How do you explain the copious numbers of dating methods which point to a young earth, and a young universe?4) What scientifically factual information can you supply to support your contention that the universe is billions of years old? Don't give me your assumptions and theories, and don't give me the speed of light problem because it's also a problem for you, and I already answered it with my response. I want scientifically factual information.5) How do you explain the origin of information, such as the information contained in the DNA, without violating the laws of thermodynamics?6) How do you explain the PRESERVATION of the information in our DNA over MILLIONS and MILLIONS of years, seeing as how thermodynamics is observably and quickly removing bits and pieces of that information in every single generation?7) How did sex arise? Seeing as how there are miriads of sexual reproduction systems in organisms, pretty much NONE of which are compatible with one another in reproduction. See CrEvo Rant # 13 Ian's Sex Video for the quick low down on the problems you face in explaining this dilema. I'm not interested in sexual fantasies of how one system evolved into the other, I'm interested in factual, scientific evidence - observed changes, like any good scientist would expect of a theory.8) Do you think your brain was intelligently designed? And if not, then how can you trust your thoughts if they are the result of unintelligent, undirected forces? Random chemistry? http://ianjuby.orghttp://wazooloo.com ▶ 0:00 1

I really enjoyed making these angels and playing with the metallic thread, it was a bit frustrating at first but I think I got the hang of it. I used gold, green and red thread to embroider the hearts on white felt, I embroidered sleepy eyes on their faces and I think they look so peaceful :-)
They are listed in the shop along with many more Christmas decorations!
Wishing you a great day,

Hope For Endangered Giant Mekong Catfish
By: Olivia Harlow
Produced & Edited by: Olivia Harlow
The Mekong Giant Catfish has low-set eyes, a silvery gray scaleless body and a yellowed white stomach. Endemic to the Mekong River and one of the world's largest freshwater fish, the Mekong Giant Catfish lives a threatened existence, vulnerable to dam construction, overfishing, and habitat destruction.
Rarely seen, this massive fish–capable of reaching a record 10 feet in length and 650 pounds—was listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as critically endangered in 2003; and according to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) there may be only a few hundred left in the wild.
On November 9, this giant fish was found and tagged for the first time this year in the murky brown waters of the Tonle Sap by a team of biologists, including Nat Geo Wild's "Monster Fish" host, Zeb Hogan, who has studied the species extensively for many years.
Mr. Hogan—who was coincidentally in Cambodia doing research at the time of this catch— said that adult Mekong Giant Catfish are only seen during very specific times of the year in equally specific locations. He added that compared to counting terrestrial animals, tracking fish populations from large ecosystems like the Mekong is very difficult.
"What we do know is that in the late 1800s, thousands of Mekong Giant catfish were caught each year. In the early 1900s, there are reports of hundreds being caught each year. And recently we hear reports of less than 10 caught per year," he explained.
Youk Senglong, Executive Director of Fisheries Action Coalition Team, clarified that these fish used to be eaten for food, "because those people do not understand." He added that many people back then used to care more about their income than the importance of protecting the species.
Mr. Hogan said that fish catching often serves as a proxy for abundance, "So, IF catch is related to abundance, then giant catfish has declined by 90-99 percent in the last century."
Mr. Hogan explained that giant freshwater fish in other parts of the world, including the Yangtze River in China, have completely disappeared. "Unless there is someone monitoring the populations, the same thing could happen on the Mekong," he said, adding that the Mekong Giant Catfish already teeters on the brim of extinction.
Mr. Hogan said though some people may not care about one species' potential extinction, this declining population reveals a much bigger issue.
"The Mekong Giant Catfish is symbolic of the health and integrity of the Mekong River," he said, explaining that this specific body of water is one of the most biodiverse on Earth. "The extinction of the Mekong Giant Catfish would be an indication of declining river health and a red flag for the millions of people who depend on the Mekong for their livelihoods."
In addition to warnings of the area's fragile environment and loss of sustainability exists a spiritually related problem.
Traditionally revered among Buddhists, the Mekong Giant Catfish, or "pla buk", is considered a sacred creature.
"Cambodian people, in particular fishers, believe that this kind of species is the king of other fish," said Mr. Senglong, adding that Buddhist religion requires that the fish not be killed. "This species also brings other fish to fish. So, if the fishers catch and eat the catfish, the fishers will never [have] chance to catch other fish."
Mr. Senglong added that when he was young, fishermen would conduct a special ceremony for the fish. "[There was] music and sprinkling perfume," he explained. "The role of Buddhist monks and other religious followers is important to educate the fishers not to catch and eat."
Thach Sophanara, Director of Laboratory at the Fishery Administration Department, said that this kind of ceremony occurred before the fish was set free on November 9, fishermen sprinkled perfume over it for good luck. "Cambodians believe they can wish for something or for good luck with these fish," he explained.
But unfortunately, this "lucky" fish is experiencing anything but luck.
The Giant Mekong Catfish requires long stretches of open water in order to migrate and environmentally specific conditions to breed, but according to Mr. Hogan, human intrusion and the building of dams have disrupted these patterns.
"The main threats are incidental catch, habitat fragmentation because of dams, and habitat degradation—primarily dredging, rapids blasting, and reduction of flooded forest habitat," he explained.
Additionally, although it's now illegal to fish this particular species, enforcement in Southeast Asia's more secluded areas is minimal.
"The difficulty of enforcement in remote areas is because when they fish Giant Mekong Catfish, they transport into Laos," said Mr. Sophanara—who was also present at the catch on the Tonle Sap. "Also, we don't have budget for patrol or to educate them."
Mr. Sophanara said that fishermen rarely pay close attention to the types of fish they catch when they cast nets. "Fishermen never understand when it's [the fishes'] season and what kind of fish they are catching," he said. "They just leave their nets in the Tonle Sap, but they don't know that impact."
He added that many fishermen in other Southeastern countries continue to catch and sell the species in local markets, which is out of Cambodian control.
According to the WWF and Mr. Hogan, these social and economic developments make conservation work in the Greater Mekong region urgent, yet challenging.
Fortunately, last Monday, scientists found hope.
On November 9, the Mekong Giant Catfish— also known as the "royal fish"—was caught and tagged, proving its doubted presence in Cambodia.
Mr. Hogan then dove ten feet with the seven-foot long fish, ensuring that it returned safely to deeper waters.
"[I tried] to direct it to deeper water where it normally swims and is less likely to be caught again in a net," said Mr. Hogan. "The fish seemed strong as I released it, so I hope that it will recover from being captured and continue its migration."

For most of the year I have been receiving treatment and ultimately surgery for early stage uterine cancer. I have been extremely lucky and have been given the all-clear and, whilst never life threatening as it was detected in its very early stages, it still scares you and makes you look at much of your life in a different light. For us, it has helped motivate us in our determination to find a new home. Since our daughter went to university we have been planning a move to a rural location but with other family commitments there have been many other added considerations when looking for the perfect place. And somehow amongst the constant fray of everything else, we found it. Our ideal home, workplace and inspiration all rolled into one. It has been an agonizing three months of applications, business plans, discussions and interviews and finally, two days ago we were offered the tenancy. Nestled in the hills in the crossroads of Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire is the tenant farm that is to be our home.
But for now,

Whether you purchased your car brand new and want to make a few changes, or you purchased a used car and really want to switch things up—you have to decide where to begin. Below are just a few upgrades and changes you can make to your car to make it look and feel more like you.
Electronic upgrades in your car have never been more versatile. If your car is a bit older, it may not have many electronic gadgets built-in. Below are a few electronic car upgrades to consider:
• New car stereo, speakers, woofers, etc.
• Satellite radio
• IPod and/or Smartphone adapter
• Bluetooth
• Rear seat DVD
• Solar chargers
• Dash cam
• Radar detector
• Power locks
• Remote starter
Interior Changes
Changing the interior of your car is an excellent way to make your car more comfortable, functional, and even more visually appealing. A few interior changes to consider include:
• New upholstery
• Seat covers
• Upgraded or seasonal floor mats
• Interior car organizers
• New steering wheel
• Decorative shift knobs
• Dash kit
• Custom gages
Paint and Detailing
Changing the color of your car will make a dramatic difference. When you factor in finishes and colors, your list of options is a mile long. On top of that, you want to determine if your car will be one solid color, or if you want to have a custom design painted on. Automotive painters are true artists who can do far more than pinstripes and flames, and instead creative color blocking and patterns.
However, painting your car a fairly common color can make it feel more like you. Since most cars come standard in only a handful of colors, painting your car a color you like will really personalize its appearance.
Exterior Upgrades
Some exterior upgrades are more for visual appeal, while others are designed to improve speed and function—and this goes far beyond a new paint job.
Some of the most common exterior car upgrades include:
• Lighting—both functional and decorative
• Fender
• Bumper
• Spoiler
• Folding side mirrors
• Moldings and trim
• Running boards
• Custom grilles
• High performance exhaust systems
• Truck cab accessories
• Off-roading upgrades
Personalizing your car has never been easier. Just select the features you want to upgrade, and work on them one-by-one until you have the look and feel you are going for. If car exhaust systems are on this list, check out the wide selection at Muffler Express—available for shipping to both the US and Canada.
