Honeycomb Roadshow Comes to Sligo
Digital content creators based in the border counties of Ireland are the target of a €4.2 million cross-border programme entitled Honeycomb – Creative Works.
Funded by the EU's INTERREG IVA Programme, the Honeycomb Roadshow will be coming to Sligo on the 22 January 2014 to reach out to businesses and freelancers in order to raise awareness of the benefits of participating in the programme.
Speaking about the programme, Kevin Fearon, Honeycomb Project Manager based at Dundalk Institute of Technology highlights the importance of Honeycomb: "Honeycomb – Creative Works is a new and exciting networking and business support programme targeted at professionals who are leading on digital content creation within the creative industries sector.
"The digital content sector is universally recognised as one of the most fast changing and constantly evolving sectors, and governments right across the world have put in place dedicated strategies that place the digital economy at the heart of their development plans; and Ireland is no exception.
"In light of these opportunities for growth, Honeycomb aims to address the needs of digital content creators to ensure that the economic environment is sufficiently supported to allow the sector to flourish and to develop links and networks with counterparts in Northern Ireland and the west of Scotland through our partners in University of Ulster and Creative Skillset.
"So if your business is film or broadcast; animation; games development; music technologies or interactive media, then the Honeycomb team looks forward to seeing you in Sligo."
Honeycomb has identified a range of activities which will be delivered over the next two years and which are grouped around the four specific themes of Research, Networking, Skills Development and Seed Funding.
The Honeycomb team will be in Sligeach Film Studios, Old Thorn Yard, Wine Street, Sligo from 1pm on Wednesday 22 January 2014. To register, simply email firstname.lastname@example.com or come along on the day.

I feel it is important for me to share what PeerCube offers before I talk about how PeerCube came about.
What PeerCube offers?I will be upfront. PeerCube is optimized for how I and Mrs. RT make loan selection and lending decisions. I hope that PeerCube provides value to fellow lenders, too. We focused on two areas of loan filtering and loan review.
Personalized Loan Filters
- Ability to create, load and delete custom loan filters available at one location.
- Load a saved filter, adjust any of the 29 parameters, and save the resulting filter as a new filter.
- Filtered results showing loans meeting a filter criteria, high level information about the filtered loans and a Detail button to view the loan details, funding progress and peer insights.
Collaborative Decision Making
- Review top peer rated loans, your recent reviewed loans, and loans with most peer opinions at one location.
- Rate loans, share your opinion and review peer rating and opinions
A few screen captures from PeerCube website are shown at the end of this blog post for your review.
How PeerCube came about?The credit for the idea seed that grew into PeerCube goes to Mrs. RT. As she wrote in her blog post Filtering the Currently Available Loans, she wasn't impressed with the loan selection process through Lending Club website as well as through CSV download that I was using.
She thought both processes were slow and took too much of time commitment versus the amount to be invested. She suggested I look into automating the loan selection process with couple of her requirements in mind:
- Avoid downloading the CSV file for currently available loans and inserting the custom filters on the columns to filter loans every time we decide to review available loans for investment.
- Avoid the need to save the filter criteria in a separate document that is referred to create custom filters, every time we download new CSV file for currently available loans.
Mrs. RT likes to select loans and decide on investing together as mentioned in her post Let's do Lending Club night!. When we couldn't hold Lending Club night several times due to scheduling conflict, it was clear we needed "virtual" Lending Club nights to continue investing. So a new requirement of collaborative decision making and opinion sharing was tacked on to the original project.
Mrs. RT was so excited with peer to peer lending and Lending Club that she couldn't stop talking about it with her friends, doctor, hair dresser and everybody else who will listen. Naturally, some people expressed interest in learning more and requested access to our project. Such requests along with complexity of using VPN to access home server remotely, it became clear that this web service needed to be hosted at a web hosting company with public access. So a new requirement of user authentication and management was tacked on to the original project requirements. And, the final result is PeerCube as it stands today at www.peercube.com.
As a fellow peer to peer lender, all readers are invited to use this free service. Your feedback and suggestions for improvement and new features are most welcome through blog comments, Contact Us page at this blog and Contact page at PeerCube.

Welcome to my blog and to my first ever post. My blog will mainly consist of posts about Wargaming and Wargame related items. Hope you all enjoy it!!!
Recently on the League of Augsburg site, there were some figures for sale that Barry painted up for the Battle of the Boyne. As there's no info on the three Huguenot regt's that fought he made up some flags, so I thought I'd have a go too. The flags are LeCaillemotte regiment in blue, de Meloniere regiment in black & du Cambon regiment in green. They're not the best flags you'll ever see, but feel free to copy them if you want.
I have made some other flags that are not commercially available for the period that I'll post at a later date.

Generosity vs. Stinginess
"Realizing that all I have belongs to God and using it for His purposes"
2 Corinthians 9:6
"The point is this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully." RSV
The generosity of the female alligator
The generosity of the female alligator in giving the right amount of help at the right time is critical to the survival of its offspring. Giving the right amount at the right time pertains to the protection and aid of the hatching eggs and also applies to early stages of the nest's construction. It is most important that the nest is built in a proper way and in the proper place to ensure the survival of the alligator eggs. "Taken from IBLP by permission"

An update to a story we've been chronicling on American Rattlesnake recently: We now know that despite feigned ignorance by top administration flacks, the higher-ups at the Department of Justice were aware of Project Gunrunner, a program initiated by the ATF under President Bush which has now become a national embarrassment to the men and women charged with its enforcement.
The fact that American law enforcement officers would be told to allow the trafficking of high-powered arms into Mexico-in order to validate a now discredited theory that it would lead to them back to high profile drug cartels-is bad enough. However, the coverup of this scandal is even more egregious, especially when you consider that the death of Agent Jaime Zapata could have possibly been a result of this astoundingly foolish, dangerous policy.
We need answers, and that's one thing we're not getting from this White House. That's why the suggestion by 24Ahead that we demand them is so necessary at this point in time. We need to hold our elected officials, and the journalists who ostensibly police them, accountable for their actions-or in this case, inaction. Gunwalker is a scandal of epidemic proportions, as well as a vivid illustration of the flaws in our border security policies. The government must be held accountable for its failures, and for the continued obstruction of journalists and oversight investigators-such as Senator Charles Grassley-who are attempting to get to the bottom of it.

An economic tsunami is coming at us. We already witness the early squalls. Stocks are down. Gas prices are up. Financial houses are writing off billions in losses. The dollar has steadily declined. The head of the Federal Reserve warns that the economy will continue to slow.
At the center of the gathering storm is the bursting of the housing bubble, and a spreading credit squeeze. Over a million homes in foreclosure this year; another two million threatened next year. Housing prices down generally. The inventory of unsold houses reaching near record levels.
So when Democrats gathered for the historic debate in Las Vegas last week, what did the CNN anchors ask them about? Campbell Brown started by asking Hillary Clinton to respond to a charge that she engaged in the "politics of parsing." That wasn't enough for Wolf Blitzer who pursued the charge that Clinton as "triangulating." Not to be left out, John Roberts wanted to know if John Edwards was "flip flopping."
And so it went. Would the candidates support the Democratic nominee? Merit pay for teachers? Does Dennis Kucinich disagree with unions on anything?
Not one – not one – question on what the candidates would do on the housing crisis. Not one question – not one – on what the candidates would do to deal with an economy that is headed into trouble. The CNN anchors were so busy looking to generate a little conflict, or to play "gotcha" that they couldn't be bothered with asking about the economic tsunami that is building up every day.
Wolf demanded a yes or no answer on whether the candidates supported issuing drivers' licenses to undocumented workers. Sure, immigration is becoming a hot button issue. But these candidates generally agree, as Blitzer knows, about comprehensive immigration reform. So rather than focus on the broad issue, he zeroed down to something that might illustrate division or diversion.
By the time people vote in Iowa and elsewhere, the state of the economy – and what we should do about it – will be at the top of voters' concerns, along with the war in Iraq. It will be more important than immigration, more important than flip flopping, of greater concern than the politics of parsing.
And what should be done will be – and should be – a matter of great debate. Hillary Clinton, embracing the economic priorities of her husband, says the first priority is to balance the budget. But the budget will be in balance if the economy continues to grow. It is the economic downturn that will generate deficits at the national, state and local level. The key will be to generate growth. Cutting spending or raising taxes to balance a budget in a downturn is exactly the wrong policy.
Republicans say sustain the Bush tax cuts. But whatever stimulus effect the tax cuts had – and it wasn't much – they've already had.
We need action. Initiatives now are needed to save homeowners headed to foreclosure. Investments in new energy and conservation, in affordable housing and education can put people to work, generate growth, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and help kick start the economy.
As we should have learned with Katrina, bold action and clear leadership is vital when a storm is gathering. Lives can be saved; property can be protected. Those who put their heads in the sand are likely to be swept away by the waves and the winds.
Now an economic tsunami is headed this way. It is time for leadership – from the current White House and Congress, and from those who seek to lead us in the future. And it is time for the press and pundits to wake up.

Family is my top priority. Your family and mine. I have been happily married to my husband Marc for 33 years. We've been blessed with four sons, ages 15 through 26, who give us tremendous nachas (satisfaction and joy). To be sure, we have experienced our share of challenges as well: infertility, adoption, bedrest pregnancies, prematurity, learning disabilities, sibling rivalry, ADHD…our list goes on. I know first hand that being a parent takes patience, courage and endurance. There've been plenty of times that I could have used a parent coach myself!!
I have 30 years of experience working with Jewish families. As a child of Holocaust survivors and as a frum (traditional) Jew, I have dedicated myself to the cause of Jewish continuity. This is my derech, my calling. Countless parents have come to me over the years for advice, support, information and help in locating educational and medical resources. I've always considered it a privilege to work with them. My goal is empower Jewish parents by helping them discover how best to raise their children as committed Jews in positive, healthy relationships. The Jewish future is with our children. For me, strengthening Jewish families is very fulfilling.
It all started in 1976 when I graduated with high honors from The Ohio State University. For 5 years and in 3 states, I taught high school science and mathematics both in the public schools and in Jewish day schools. In the years since then, I have been a full time mom, a youth director, nursery school director, Jewish community activist, and educational consultant in the Greater Washington DC Orthodox Jewish community. Working personally and communally with parents and children through the years, my focus has always been to address the spiritual, intellectual, physical and emotional needs of Jewish children of all ages.
As an Academy for Coaching Parents International Certified Coach ® for Parents and Families (ACPI CCPF), I'm ready to help you meet your parenting challenges. Let me help you realize your dream of creating a home filled with shalom and simcha, balance and joy.

Paul Mumford, an internationally respected Personal Fitness Trainer, interviewed me for his article in Ultra-Fit Magazine June 2014 from which he used excerpts from our interview. You can read Paul's article on his own blog here: "Time To Get Naked"
Below is our interview in full.
1. Firstly, how would you like to be described?
I'm a Musculoskeletal Podiatrist.
My focus is on natural barefoot gait as the basis for optimal foot & lower-limb health and movement. Understanding more about how the natural human foot functions barefoot on natural surfaces, informs & modifies my treatment choices as I consider the effects of all the unnatural influences exerted on the foot by footwear and man made surfaces which modify human gait.
I've been nicknamed by others as "The Barefoot Podiatrist" due to my practice of being unshod for 95% of the time.
2. Your approach to podiatry has radically changed over the last few years. Can you explain what brought about this change and how this has altered the way you treat your patients?
I've been qualified for 26 years this Summer & in the profession for 29 years. From about 14 years ago I became involved in the design of a very successful range of foot orthoses for the correction of gait abnormalities with a company called Healthy Step.
At that time, & up till about 4 years ago, I believed, like many podiatrists, that approximately 80% of the World's population would be helped by wearing functional foot orthoses.
The prevailing belief is that human beings function best when shod in protective & supportive footwear for almost all activities. Wearing shoes is seen by most in my profession as the norm. Not once did I consider that human beings could safely live a barefoot lifestyle.
In fact, as I stated above, not only did I believe that humans need footwear for optimal gait, but that approximately 80% of people also need foot orthoses to avoid injuries to their lower-limbs & backs.
I not only believed in prescribing foot orthoses for patients with musculoskeletal lower-limb injuries and pathology, but also using them for preventing problems from occurring.
Then, just over 4 years ago, I read an article in The Telegraph newspaper "Why expensive trainers could be worse than useless" about Chris McDougal and his experience learning to run barefoot with the Tarahumara Indians in Northern Mexico. I was totally surprised to discover that this indigenous American tribe could run long distances with little or nothing on their feet for protection or support. I was so intrigued by this incredible feat of human achievement that I became obsessed with researching more about them, as well as other habitually unshod races around the world. I spent four months reading everything I could find about barefoot gait in the orthopaedic and podiatric literature.
It became apparent that some medical researchers have known for well over one hundred years that footwear always interferes with natural gait creating mechanical dysfunction, and eventually compensatory adaptions in almost everybody who wear them for prolonged periods of time.
It is also very well understood that footwear dramatically increases the risk of developing foot deformities like bunions and hammer toes.
After giving this new information serious consideration I realised I needed to revaluate how I practised as a clinician.
I changed my practise philosophy from emphasising longterm support of the foot and leg with corrective orthoses and stabilising footwear, to one where I promote rehabilitation and prevention.
I now advise exercises and lifestyle changes, including going barefoot more often, particularly on uneven surfaces.
I believe, just like the rest of our bodies, our feet are more healthy if given plenty of fresh air, exercise and sunshine.
I encourage my patients to strengthen & mobilise the joints and muscles of their feet with spiky massage balls daily, as well as to walk or run barefoot on natural uneven surfaces as often as possible.
Foot orthoses are still very useful, but should be seen more often as a short-term tool to support an injury whilst the patient rehabilitates than as a permanent necessity.
Many foot and lower-limb problems can be more appropriately and effectively addressed by rehabilitative muscle exercises, mobilisations, massage and lifestyle changes.
I give many patients a choice between rehabilitation with and without orthoses, or treatment just with orthoses. Realising that orthotic supports have been shown to create dependency, I try my best to help my patients avoid the problem of relying on foot orthoses as a panacea, rather than properly rehabilitating.
3. What are the most common problems people come to you with and how do you treat them?
I'll briefly discuss three of the most common injuries presenting in my clinic. Plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgias and shin splints.
The most common problem I see in my clinic is plantar fasciitis (fasciosis), followed by various types of metatarsalgias. I also see quite a few cases of anterior knee pain and shin splints of various types.
My treatment for plantar fasciitis has changed dramatically due to my new philosophy. I now emphasise strengthening exercises and massage as the primary aspect of curative treatment, with some patients also using foot orthoses in the short term to give quick pain reduction, almost as a first aid measure. For most of my more able-bodied patients I also recommend barefoot beach walking using a short stride with forefoot strike (followed by gentle heel placement) onto the soft-sand for 10-20 minutes 3-5 times a week. The main aim of this rehabilitative approach is to stimulate an increase in foot & ankle muscle strength as well as to improve the hysterisis (elasticity) of the plantar fascia. Footwear advice is given to my patients because I believe the evidence is clearly showing that stiff, supportive shoes, acting like braces, cause muscle weakness & atrophy, along with joint stiffness. The evidence is showing that the plantar fascia & arch muscles need to be used in a repetitive stretch/shortening cycle in order to keep them strong & pliable. In essence, to keep the foot healthy it needs to function in the way it was evolved to function – naturally! Stiff supportive footwear don't allow this.
As far as metatarsalgias are concerned, apart from some rather uncommon problems with fat pad atrophy, most pathologies in the ball of the foot are caused directly by wearing shoes over prolonged periods of time, leading to disruption in the normal plantarflexion of the toes causing a muscle imbalance between the long extensors & flexors of the toes, as well as between the extrinsic foot muscles & the intrinsic muscles of the foot. In the case of many forms of metatarsalgia there is also the pathological effect of lateral compression of the forefoot causing a disruption in the relative positions of the metatarsals & also the plantar digital nerves, making Morton's neuroma very common, along with capsulitis of the metatarso-phalangeal joints.
( A brilliant explanation of the causes of metatarsalgias is found here, written by my good friend & co-designer Andy Horwood: Mechanically Caused Metatarsalgias )
My treatment is always aimed primarily at trying to restore natural position & function, wherever possible. So plantarflexion exercises to mobilise the joints & stretch contracted soft-tissues are used. Plus I use strengthening exercises for the intrinsic foot muscles. Osteopathic mobilisation techniques of the foot, including the cuboid, are also very helpful. Orthotic foot supports are frequently used in my clinic to off-load the pressure areas & reduce the inflammation in the soft-tissues. Sometimes orthoses are used short-term, but quite often long-term because many patients end up with permanent adaptive deformities associated with the long-term over-use of shoes.
When it comes to treating shin splints my treatment philosophy has changed completely. It seems to me that most types of shin splints, but particularly medial tibial stress syndrome and anterior compartment syndrome, are associated with poor running technique. Over the years of treating runners with these all too common running injuries, the single most successful treatment approach has been to get patients to change their foot plant from a rearfoot to a forefoot strike. So I also teach barefoot/natural gait running technique & drills which incorporate a gentle forefoot strike, along with advising on going barefoot or using minimalist shoes.
4. Can everyone be 'fixed' by simply taking off their shoes?
The short answer is sadly NO!
Mainly because some patients' problems have been left till its too late. In some cases barefoot walking or running is no longer possible comfortably.
UnfortunateIy, some people I see cannot fully rehabilitate. This is due to irreversible arthritic changes to the joints, or permanent adaption of the soft-tissues.
Also, the simple act of "taking off their shoes" is not enough for most people any way. The adverse effects of prolonged footwear use creates physical dependency on them. Most people have to be gently and slowly weaned off their supportive and protective footwear.
And tragically for many people the physical adaptive changes to the foot, and the whole lower-limb can be irreversible. These people would probably benefit from going barefoot more often, or wearing minimalist shoes, but they won't receive the full benefits because of the irreversible anatomical changes.
In some few cases, those changes to the physical anatomy of the body are so widespread and so well established, that changing their gait to a more natural style is not an option which would be beneficial at all, but would actually cause more problems. Fortunately, I believe this to be true only for the minority of shoe wearers.
There is possibly only one medical condition which could preclude someone from barefoot gait. This is sensory neuropathy. If you cannot sense the ground with your feet then you are in danger of traumatic injury. (I would now add some others: see future blog post for update)
The biggest problem though is the psychological/socio-emotional dependency. Most people just cannot imagine ever walking or running barefoot. And certainly not in public. This is treatable with the introduction of new information which can change our attitudinal paradigms to feet and their use.
I consider my clinic to be almost like an addiction recovery clinic. Only, the drug is shoes.
5. Why is it so important to feel the ground beneath your feet? (could you explain a little about proprioception here?)
One of the most important functions of our feet is to sense the surface on which they are placed. The many thousands of highly specialised sensory nerve endings in the skin of our feet have evolved to expect intimate skin contact with the ground. There are touch, pressure and vibration mechano-receptors which function to give vital information to our brains so our brains know precisely what we are standing on and how are feet are interacting with that surface. The sensory information is necessary for optimal muscle function and postural alignment. The better the quality of that information, the more effectively our muscles can work to enable us to walk and run as efficiently as possible, thus reducing the risk of musculoskeletal injury.
The big problem with footwear of any type is they interfere with that sensory perception of the ground. Muffling and distorting the image our brains receive of our interaction with the ground.
Minimalist footwear designs go some way to improving the amount of proprioceptive feedback, but with evolution only giving us just enough sensory nerve endings for optimal proprioception, nothing is as good as totally barefoot.
Some minimalist footwear are better than others for various reasons. The main criteria I think are important are the thickness of the material under the sole of the foot, combined with how pliable that material is. The other is: does the footwear allow natural foot movements, with individual toe function very high on the list.
6. Let's talk about toes. Is it OK to bunch them all together in socks and shoes or is there a real benefit in allowing them to move independently and spread? Why is it so important to have strong toes?
Though the scientific research hasn't proven this conclusively yet, I believe that it makes sense from an evolutionary & a biomechanical perspective to maximise the number of bones & joints moving, as well as muscles contracting & relaxing for the best proprioceptive feedback. From experience in my clinic over the last four years I've found people who wear Vibram FiveFingers seem to have less foot injuries than those wearing minimalist shoes with toes all bunched together.
There is evidence that separating the toes increases the intrinsic muscle activity in the ball of the foot. Having strong muscles in the forefoot helps to protect against injury.
7. Finally, what do you think needs to be done in order to change the way we treat our feet? Why have we got it so wrong for so long?
I'm convinced their needs to be a paradigm shift in thinking about our feet. In fact, we just need to think about our feet. Most people are completely oblivious to how their feet work, or don't work. They just stick them into shoes without any thought about what the shoes are doing to the function of their feet. It's a bit like everyone habitually sticking their hands into boxing gloves and then ignoring them day in, and day out. Eventually there would be repercussions.
The biggest challenge, I think, is that the overuse of shoes in our society has become so normal, so expected by social convention that people don't consider that shoes could actually be causing their foot, ankle, knee, hip or back problems. It's because wearing shoes is the norm, & has been for many years, that very few people consider the risks. Children grow up without a choice of whether or not to wear shoes when they go outside. No-one makes a choice, they just do what society has programmed them to do – wear shoes!
The problem with the over-use of shoes is not normal for all societies, mainly Western European & American. Australians & New Zealanders are much more relaxed & comfortable about going barefoot outside & in public.
The main reason for obsessive shoe use in Europe is believed by historians to be related to the class system going back to the Renaissance when the aristocracy wore shoes to set them apart from the peasantry. When you wore shoes you were "well-heeled!"
After that the lower classes aspired to become like the upper and middle classes, and wearing shoes was part of the image they desired.
Since then, wearing shoes just became a tradition. Most people don't consider why they wear shoes, they just do.
However, just like in other fields of medicine, where once a cause for pathology is discovered lots of effort is put into educating the population about healthier lifestyle choices, the same is true for feet.
In dentistry, once sugary foods in our diets were discovered to be a major cause of took decay, the dental profession gave advice about better diets.
Once doctors discovered that smoking causes lung cancer, health promotion campaigns encouraged people to give up the dangerous habit.
Now that we know that sedentary lifestyles increase our risk of developing diabetes & heart disease, exercise for health is encouraged.
In a similar way, now we know footwear can be harmful to our bodies, we should inform & educate the population about the risks of shoe wearing & encourage people to make healthier lifestyle choices. At the very least we can teach people that they have a choice.
The biggest hurdle is challenging social convention. The general population need to become more accepting of seeing a bare human foot in public.
Just as a bare hand is normal for human beings, so should a bare human foot be!

You know, the primary thing about a New York apartment is that it must be quiet, says the artist Taylor Mead, who has lived since 1979 in a 260-square-foot hovel on Ludlow Street. And have nice light. New York artists have always been famously accommodating about their accommodations, choosing to live here as spartans or slobs (or both) rather than anywhere else. This is the city at its most romanticthough, as Mead would tell you, romance isn't easy. In 2002, he received an eviction notice. They had the building fumigated because it was infested with cockroaches. He was allowed to stay, but many of his belongings and work weren't. Now the apartment is a worse wreck than before, he says. My ceiling is collapsing, there's no water coming inbut I'm afraid to complain, because they'll inspect it again.

Right-wing voters want Sarkozy back in politics
Date created : Latest update :
Conservative French voters want former President Nicolas Sarkozy back at the helm, according to a new poll. Sarkozy recently broke a long silence to accuse President François Hollande of lacking leadership on the Syrian crisis.
Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy continues to enjoy overwhelming support among conservative voters, following his recent call for stronger leadership from Paris on the Syrian crisis.
An IFOP poll published in the weekly Journal du Dimanche on August 19 found that 53% of voters who support his centre-right UMP party want Sarkozy to be their candidate in the next presidential election in 2017.
Of those polled, 40% said they would welcome his return "especially if he tackled new areas of policy", while just 7% said they did not want him back in politics.
Sarkozy has kept a low profile since he was ousted by Socialist rival François Hollande in May's presidential election.
Before the vote, he said that he would quit politics permanently if defeated.
But on August 8, he stuck his head above the parapet for the first time in three months to criticise Hollande's leadership on the Syrian issue, arguing that military intervention was needed to end the crisis.
In 2011, Sarkozy led calls for military intervention in Libya, which ultimately contributed to the downfall of ex-dictator Muammar Gaddafi.
Sarkozy's criticism of Hollande was followed up by his former Prime Minister François Fillon who called on the new president to "be a bit braver".
Fillon, who argued for stronger diplomacy rather than a military option, is seen as the favourite to win the party leadership vote due in November.
Sarkozy told the Journal du Dimanche that "my return is not on the agenda ... for the moment" and that he was "putting himself out to pasture for two or three years."
According to the newspaper, former President Edouard Balladur has advised Sarkozy to avoid any political comment "for at least a year" as the best way to prepare for an eventual return to politics.
Sarkozy's plan for his eventual return is to play "hard to get" while his party recovers from the double defeat of the 2012 presidential and parliamentary elections.
"Sarkozy's strategy is clear," the Journal du Dimanche said. "He wants to make himself desired rather than rushing headlong back into the political fray."

Have you ever been to a Web site and had an all-around excellent experience? The site was easy to use, the checkout was flawless, and when you had to call to change your order, a human being actually answered the phone and cheerfully assisted you. It doesn't get any better than that!
If you are a small-business owner, it's in your best interest to provide the same out-of-this-world experience for customers that you would expect as a Web site visitor. Every door that leads to the customer is part of the customer's experience: every word on your site, every e-mail message you send, and every conversation between you and your customer. Your customer's experience is determined by the customer service you provide, the navigation of your site, and the overall satisfaction you provide for your customer.
It seems that every business owner would want to make every effort to create a brilliant experience for the customer. But we have all been to sites that left us confused, frustrated, and downright annoyed. So, there's obviously room for your business to jump ahead of the pack and become "customer-centric."
If you are still wondering why you should bother to address the customer's experience, consider the fact that you may not have any customers if you don't! If a visitor has to stumble through your site to find your shipping charges, not only do you have a frustrated customer, but your bottom line will suffer in the long run. People who have good experiences tell a few friends. People who have bad experiences tell everyone they know.
So why not make some small changes that will leave a positive impression on your customer?
Consider Amazon.com. Sure, it is one of the biggest and best-known Web stores. But the company works relentlessly to guarantee an easy-to-use site and supports it with a helpful customer service department. That's why customers return.
Don't worry -- you don't have to have Amazon's money or resources to create a positive experience for visitors to your small-business Web site. In fact, all it takes is some extra planning and dedication to a common goal for the customer's experience. Here are five key ingredients that will put you on the road to a customer-centric Web site:
- Post all necessary information on your Web site: policies, shipping charges, server maintenance times, and help pages. This will make it easy for customers to help themselves.
- Personalize your site to increase customer satisfaction. Use cookies to welcome the customer back to your site and reuse the information that your customer has already provided.
- Perform quick and inexpensive usability tests to ensure ease of use. And when you make changes to the site, perform the tests again.
- Build credibility by adding the human touch: Let your customers know that there are real people behind your business's Web site. Post the names and pictures of the employees with whom your customers typically interact, such as customer service representatives or salespeople.
- Ask your customers for feedback. Answer -- and act upon - every response you receive.

Fenn Swordfish Product Review
When I first got my Fenn Swordfish, I was in San Francisco, CA in the week leading up to US Surfski Championships. This gave me the opportunity to test out this new boat right from the get go, running it through all types of conditions from surf to chop to current rips to flat water. I raced it twice in one week, first at the Wave Chasers Sausilito to Berkeley race then at Champs, and was very impressed by its handling. When my wife called from Bellingham halfway through the week to see how I was liking the boat she asked "Is it <the Swordfish> as good as you thought it would be" my reply was "It's better". Having been paddling this boat for the past 3 months now, I wouldn't change my answer. So the question that everyone is asking is "What makes the Swordfish so good?". Here's my impression:
Filling the Void
The newest boat from Fenn Kayaks, the Fenn Swordfish, fills the void of a high performance intermediate boat not only in the Fenn product lineup but also across all surfski manufacturers' products. The challenge for many intermediate paddlers (and more skilled paddlers looking for added stability in big conditions) is that, until now, there hasn't been a model in between the wider "beginner" boats and the skinny "elite" boats, period. Looking at all the major surfski manufacturers' models out there, the beam width is either 19″ and above (ok the S1-R says it's 18.75 but that's close enough) or 17″ and below. You're either in a "fat" boat or you are not. The jump from a wider boat to a higher performance boat has been too much for many looking to step up their paddling, leaving them either in a bulkier boat than they want or a boat the is unsafe for them in some conditions. At 17.72″, the Swordfish offers a middle ground. Sleek high performance design with added stability that comes with it's beam width.
Looking at just the raw data of the Swordfish vs the XT or the Elite (below) will tell you that, yes, this is an intermediate boat that falls smack in between the specs of Fenn's two main models, but that doesn't do the Swordfish justice. From the specs alone you can see the beam is going to go up or down an inch from the other two models , overall length is going to go up or down a foot, and finally the height is going to adjust an inch up or down respectively. The weight of the carbon model comes in around 24lbs, again stats that are tucked right in between the XT and Elite. But you can't simply classify the Swordfish as the filling in between the cookies thereby making the Fenn line-up complete. No, you have to look at the boat itself, it's design and handling to really see why the Swordfish is in a class by itself.
Swordfish Design
This boat is designed to surf. There are a number of factors to the design that make the Fenn Swordfish a surfing machine. To start, the length of the Swordfish, at 20′, is hitting a sweet spot that will perform well on swell as well as wind generated waves. After that things get messy, so let's start from the nose and work our way back.
The front of this boat is designed to cut through waves while at the same time being able to respond quickly to steering. The volume of the Fenn Swordfish nose is actually smaller than both the Mako XT and the Mako Elite. Lining up these three surfski's bows, I was amazed at the actual size and shape difference in the profile between the three. (See Photo Above) This adjustment to the nose volume in the Swordfish makes for a nose that is easier for smaller paddlers to handle compared to a big volume bow like an Elite.
The seat in the Swordfish is very comfortable. The higher sides and smaller bucket offer a snugger, more secure feeling seat than the low wide seat on the XT but not as constrained at the Elite cockpit which can feel a little clostrophobic if you're not used to it. Fenn has added cut outs at the the paddle point of entry, making for easier blade placement and also added to the aesthetics of the boat. The footplate and adjustments are standard Fenn stock, with the added bonus of a webbing pully to move footplate more easily.
What the Swordfish lacks in volume in the nose, it makes up for in the tail. The boat has had most of its volume put behind the cockpit, which gives some added stability as well as helping put the boat on waves. With the smaller nose and the fatter tail, it's hard not to catch a wave on this design, with the tail feeling like it's being lifted and placed on the wave. When lined up tail to tail, the Swordfish's rudder is about a foot further forward on the hull the the XT, which helps keep boat from broaching on steep wave.
The overall stability on the Swordfish is great. On flat water one might wonder what the difference is from the XT, it feels that stable. Once it gets out into waves or chop though, the rocker of the hull can be felt the differences in the stability stand out from the XT, making this a boat for experienced paddlers. Primary and secondary stability can be felt on the Swordfish, whereas in the XT it all feels pretty similar and stable.
With the higher sides, the Swordfish is a step up in remounts from the XT, but needs far less balance and skill than remounting the Elite which can be a challenge in big conditions. Overall (for experience paddlers), swims are easy to recover from in the Swordfish.
The Swordfish is a great choice for paddlers who have been waiting for a boat that will give them stability and high performance in surf. Whether you are an intermediate paddler looking to step up your game in the surf or an expert paddler looking for a little more stability and safety on the big days, the Swordfish will make a great addition to any collection of boats. The Swordfish's performance in the water along with the high quality design construction that Fenn is known for is sure to make this boat a competitor in the surfski market for years to come.

Who wouldn't enjoy driving this around town and on the highway? It looks super sleek, especially with the top down. Awesome!

My day started off with some much needed God time. It was one of my usual mini fasts where I avoid food and social media, put my phone into "Do Not Disturb" and dig into God's presence, giving all of myself to Him for a few hours. I felt compelled to do this today because as I mentioned in my previous blog post, I've been on an up and down spiritual roller coaster and my connection to God certainly hasn't been what it should be. While I have had a few of these mini fasts since noticing my decaying spiritual condition, the one I had today was a little different…
Sometimes when I listen to worship music, I like to meditate; to close my eyes and see if there are any dreams, visions or thoughts God wants to instill in me. More often than not, my mind races and jumps, making it impossible for me to be still and for Him to really reveal anything to me, and today was one of those days. Not only did my mind race, but it jumped. It jumped into my hole of pain that I've done all that I can to bury. I couldn't even focus on God anymore because I was so focused on my own past and sins. I cried and asked God to bring healing into this area of my life.
It took me some time, but I eventually wiped my tears, crawled out of bed and picked up my bible, my promise box and my journal. The promise I picked brought me to Isaiah 58– the scripture about fasting. I find it funny; almost every time I'm fasting, I'm brought to this passage, but God's word is amazing. I can read a scripture 20 times and learn something new/relate to it differently on the 21st time.
Isaiah 58:6 reads:
"Is this not the fast that I have chosen:
To loose the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the heavy burdens,
To let the oppressed go free,
And that you break every yoke?"
I've read this verse countless times, but it never impacted me the way it did today. I cried– not just tears– I cried out with my voice to God that this is who He is, and this is what He does for His children. Take my burdens Lord; remove my sins of overthinking, my fears of commitment, my complaining and bitter tongue and make me new again. This was the cry of my heart and as I declared it, that peace began to wash over me again.
Declaring these things verbally wasn't enough. I opened my journal– something I haven't done in months– to get these thoughts on paper. When I was done, I chose to reread some of my journal entries from two years ago just to see how things in my life have changed and what I still needed to work on. My heart broke and my regret sunk in because a lot of my journal entries pertained to the very sin of my past that had been weighing on me that morning. I saw the problem's progression where I journaled about it in its earlier, slightly more innocent stages, asking God for help, only to see that the problem spiraled and got worse and worse.
Suddenly I realized why my meditation had been interrupted with the regrets of my past; it was God's way of telling me that I can keep praying to Him about my current struggles, and He will give me peace and strength, but the only way a long lasting change can come, is if I actively choose to obey Him every. single. time I am faced with that sin. I had been guilty of choosing my flesh over His spirit too many times in the past in that area of my life and that is why the problem was never solved.
A lot of people negate the power of prayer, and I am in no way doing that, but I do believe that with prayer, must come action on our part; that is why throughout passages in the word, God tell us to "follow," "obey," "do." Our walk with Him is an active one.
Put it this way: if I'm overweight and I go to a nutritionist and a fitness instructor for help, they will provide me with meal plans, workout routines, ways to break old habits and other helpful advice. When I talk to them, I'll likely feel better and more motivated to change, but then I pass that bakery and I see that cake calling my name. I remember the advice I was given, but I want that cake… No. I cannot eat that cake. I walk by the store and pat myself on the back for resisting the temptation. The next day comes and there are free cake samples being handed out on the street…
"Just one bite won't hurt… You'll go to the gym tomorrow and burn it off… You deserve a cheat day…"
*NOTE: I am well aware that a piece of cake for someone on a diet isn't the end of the world*
The point I'm getting at is that that cake represents the sin in your life. You may resist it once, twice, even three times, but Satan will always try harder to make you fall. He'll make it more palatable, more accessible to you, and unless you make the active decision to choose God's way and the strength He has given you, you will continue to fall, and you will eventually come to that place of shame and regret, questioning how you fell so far.
God is merciful and gracious. He does heal our wounds of the past, so I do know and believe that He can heal my old ones and any new ones, but two years from now, I don't want to look back with regret and shame because rather than resisting temptation and allowing Him to really change me, I constantly chose sin. I want a long lasting victory. Two years from now I want to rejoice because the sins that once held me captive are gone. So today is day one on a new journey of actively choosing His spirit over my flesh.

Proudly made in the U.S.A. with a focus on patients and usability, the clean sophisticated design of the DeVilbiss IntelliPAP Series of CPAP/BiPAP Systems is a great step forward in CPAP design.
The IntelliPAP Standard CPAP offers whisper quiet operation, an exceptionally small footprint, a rich feature set, and the industry's longest warranty. It is an ideal solution for use at home or away.
Rich Feature Set: The IntelliPAP Standard includes all of the features you'd expect from a basic CPAP including a wide pressure range (3-20CM), a user adjustable ramp, and a universal power supply; but it also includes great premium features like whisper quiet operation, auto altitude adjustment, automatic leak detection, and auto on/off.
Integrated Heated Humidifier Optional: In addition to being a great CPAP machine the IntelliPAP can be coupled with a truly-integrated heated humidifier. The IntelliPAP Integrated Heated Humidifier docks into the bottom of the unit without requiring a separate hose or power cord.The humidifier chamber is easy to remove and replace and includes built-in overfill protection that prevents water from the humidifier damaging the CPAP!
User Adjustable Pressure Ramp: Many people find it is easier to fall asleep with a lower therapy pressure that gradually increases to the full prescribed pressure setting over time. The IntelliPAP's ramp comfort feature does this. Ramp time can be set from 0-45 minutes (in 5 minute increments); and If you wake up in the night and have trouble falling back to sleep, the ramp can be reinitiated with the push of a button.
Universal Power Supply & Slimline Power Cord: Most CPAP machines use an external power supply (brick) that adds weight and hassle. The IntelliPAP eliminates the external power supply and replaces it with an internal universal power supply and automatic voltage regulator designed for use worldwide on AC currents from 110 to 240. Just a slimline power cord attaches the CPAP to the wall outlet. (A plug adapter may be required for use outside of North America.)
SmartCode Therapy Compliance: The ingenious SmartCode system from DeVilbiss makes it fast and easy to access sleep therapy data -- whether it is for yourself, for your job, or for your doctor. SmartCode is an alpha-numeric code that is shown on the display of the IntelliPAP. Your code can be phoned in to your doctor, emailed to your job, or you can use it yourself. The characters and sequences in your SmartCode contain vital sleep therapy usage data in an encrypted form. Enter the code into the SmartCode Report Generator at IntelliPAP.COM and you'll have instant access to your therapy data in easy to read reports that can be saved or printed. No external software or data card is needed, everything is always available right on your machine!
Great For Travel: The IntelliPAP Standard is great for home, but it is built for travel as well. Lightweight, durable construction means the IntelliPAP CPAP weighs less than 3 lbs and fits easily in the supplied carry case or any overnight travel bag. DC power cord and battery options are also available for camping, air travel and boating.
Great machine. Got it in a timely fashion. Was some confusion on my prescription but it got cleared up with a brief phone call. Nicely done. Written by kramcraft, 2017-03-19
Excellent machine. Very quiet compared to my last one. Easier to travel with as it is smaller and lighter. Written by Jay, 2016-09-30
This is my second machine of this same model and I think is one of the best bargains around. Easy to use, nothing fancy and works as any other CPAP. I usually replace my CPAPS every 6 years, and plan on getting another one of these for home use when needed. Written by Ben, 2016-06-06
My new CPAP is working great. I love how much quieter it is and the compact design for the humidifier. Perfect fit for me. Written by Janet C. , 2015-06-11
I love my new CPAP. I had my last one for 11 years (I'm told you shouldn't do that) and wasn't even aware of how badly I was sleeping even with the pressure increase. I found the user reviews so helpful in choosing the machine to go with, I appreciate all of the people who took time to post their experiences. My new Intellipap is smaller, quieter and gives me a choice of humidifier settings so I'm not getting rained on. I haven't slept so well in ages. I'm still working on getting the right mask, but I definitely got the right machine. Written by Stevie, 2014-05-18
The machine is so quiet I had to run a small air cleaner machine in the room to cover the street noise (I work nights) Very pleased with the machine. There is no noise transmitted into the air hose...my old remstar plus lx sent a hum into the hose. Written by Donald B., 2013-05-31
Good basic cpap machine with all the necessary features. Written by G, 2012-02-17

Hi : )
I know my birthday was last week but a number of you have requested that I film a vlog, SO HERE IT IS! On Oct 4th, we had dinner at a British/Pub kind of restaurant called The Monk's Table and went to Nuit Blanche.
Ahem. In case you don't know what Nuit Blanche is . . it's an annual all-night arts festival that happens in Toronto!
TBH. All I really wanted for my birthday was to spent quality time with my friends since we're so busy with our lives–I really wanted to use this opportunity as a time for us to reunite :'). Thus, I chose to do more of a get-together "party" ^^;.. keeping it small made it feel like we're catchin' up rather than eating. Heh. THANK YOU ANITA, ANTHONY, CHRIS, CONNIE, EMILY, JUDY, KEVIN, LAN, MINH, PARK, RICKY, SYLVIA, TRANG FOR COMINGGG ❤
As for Sunday, which is my actual birth day (October 5th) my boyfriend brought me to an Italian restaurant and surprised me with Cirque Du Soleil :DDD It was my 2nd time going to a circus, but I hardly remember what my first experience was like D: …BUT DAMN. I instantly fell in love with the music at Cirque du Soleil's Kurios. It ranged from classical to electro-swing, and jazz ❤ AWESOME!
Ty bby for taking me there (●´∀`●) I've been itching to go there, but I kept on forgetting LOL.. oh dear.
&& thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday. I couldn't have asked for more ❤
Each and every one of you mean so much to me! Thank you for supporting me! /hugs

PS. I am writing this blog with my heart on my sleeve. What I have to say is from my personal experience and I will not tolerate any hate comments ^^; Please be mindful of others.
