Back in Round 2 of the 12WBT, I undertook a 50 kilometre walk along the federation trail. To recap on that, check out the link and read the Mini Milestone challenge.
Now I had two reasons to do this challenge. The first well, to see if I could do it! But right from the beginning, 8 weeks earlier, I wanted it to mean something. I wanted my challenge to be able to let someone else feel as GREAT as I felt, to feel the success and gain confidence, to change their lives and believe in themselves, like I learned to do. Those things are gifts that I will hold close to me, to experience such a huge turnaround in my life is more than I can express in words. And I found it through Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation. More than a weight loss program, this changed EVERY aspect of my life for the better. And ....it WORKS.
So after I completed the 50 K walk, I had raised the funds needed to sponsor another and pay for a heart rate monitor. Thank you so much to the generosity of my friends. And now, let me reveal to you, with permission, a picture of the results. I give you Theresa Lee, 10 weeks in to the program.
AMAZING! She was nominated by her friend.
"I would like to nominate one of my dearest friends whom I have known
since High School. Her name is Tess, she recently started to do some
training of her own and completed the 5km Run Melbourne. I would likeTess to receive this as she a mild case of Cerebral Palsy but as long as
I have known her it has never stopped her doing anything. She is a mum
to 3 beautiful kids including a son with Aspergers Syndrome so the
training could be a bit of 'Me' time for her. I have seen the Michelle
Bridges do amazing things for some special ladies and I know Tess
would love to continue training."
Now Theresa has not only lost the weight, she is RUNNING! Just recently she massacred a massive 7 minutes off her personal best time to run 5 km and has signed up for her first 10 kilometre funrun! She also regularly works out at 5.30, 6 am in the morning!
I challenge you, each of you to look at what excuses you make to not do the work. I still have excuses..." It's too hot, I'm too tired, i just don't feel like it!" But then I look at this AMAZING woman who has achieved so much in such a short period of time and she inspires me. Monumentally.
And just to finish, this incredible woman is signed up for another round......and I know she will SMASH it just like this time!
Wednesday, 31 October 2012
Paying it forward.....results 10 weeks on.
2 comments:
Woohoo Theresa, your progress this round has been amazing, you are a machine with your early morning workouts something I have yet to conquer...ReplyDelete
You have such a big, kind, generous heart Kristine :) It's people like you that make this world a better place :)
Awesome. I was not aware that Tess was the recipient of this great offer. She came and trained at one of our saturday garage sessions and busted her gut. I am so happy for her and she is proof that there are no excuses if you really want to succeed at this.ReplyDelete

WASHINGTON, DC — Vote Hemp, which advocates for industrial hemp in Washington, DC, and the Hemp Industries Association (HIA), representing over 200 hemp companies, are concerned by recent Associated Press and USA Today news reports alleging that lollipops "flavored with hemp oil" are "legal." Hemp seed oil is in fact not used in such candies, and both groups are formally advising that last year's federal court decision affirming the legality of hemp seed and oil foods DOES NOT cover candies or other products made with Cannabis flower essential oil. This essential oil is steam-distilled from the resin in the flowers and leaves of the Cannabis plant and/or from trace resin in the exempted portions of the plant, including stalks, and thus remains controlled and unlawful under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
Joe Sandler, HIA's attorney and counsel in HIA v. DEA, in a February 24, 2004 legal advisory the HIA sent to its membership, clarified that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that upheld legal hemp foods was limited to those made from hemp seeds or oil derived from the seed, but does not apply to the Cannabis flower essential oil used to flavor some candy products. (You can read the court ruling here.) "Cannabis flavored lollipops and candy should not be considered a hemp food under the exemption in the Controlled Substances Act [21 U.S.C. §802(16)]," stated Mr. Sandler. "Although Cannabis flavored candies likely will not cause a psychoactive effect and contain insignificant trace amounts of THC, they will be considered illegal insofar as they include fragrance or flavorings derived from the non-exempt trace resin of hemp stalks or other parts of the Cannabis plant."
On February 6, 2004 the HIA won their 2 1/2-year-old lawsuit HIA v. DEA, invalidating the Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) misguided attempt to rewrite the definition of marijuana to include nutritious and safe hemp seed and hemp seed oil. However, brands such as "Chronic Candy" and "Pot Suckers" are importing and selling candies flavored with Cannabis flower essential oil not covered under HIA v. DEA.
"While there is no drug effect from the Cannabis flower essential oil, we understand the efforts of federal and state law enforcement authorities to stop the marketing and sale of these products that prominently associate with marijuana and are not exempted from the CSA," says David Bronner, Chair of the Food and Oil Committee of the HIA. "Such marketing and sale can only lead to public confusion about bonafide hemp seed and oil in safe, healthy foods that are intentionally not marketed as having anything to do with marijuana."
"The bottom line is that these candies are being marketed solely to play off marijuana, and the Cannabis flower essential oil is a marijuana flavoring that has nothing to do with industrial hemp," says Tom Murphy, National Outreach Coordinator for Vote Hemp. "These lollipops are, in the eyes of the law, pot-on-a-stick, and should not in any way be associated with nutritious hemp foods, no more than controlled opium essential oil fragrance should be confused with exempt poppy seeds consumed on bagels every day."
Hemp Foods are Safe and Nutritious
Hemp seed derived from non-psychoactive industrial hemp is one of the most perfect nutritional resources in all of nature. In addition to its mild nutty flavor, the seed meat protein supplies all essential amino acids in an easily-digestible form and with a high protein efficiency ratio. But most importantly, hemp seed and hemp seed oil offer high concentrations of two essential fatty acids (EFAs), omega-3 and omega-6, in perfect balance. EFAs are the "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. This superior nutritional profile makes hemp nut (shelled seed) and hemp seed oil ideal for a wide range of functional food applications and as an effective fatty acid supplement. Given that the FDA is warning pregnant and nursing mothers about trace mercury in fish and fish oil supplements that are the traditional omega-3 sources in the American diet, hemp seed and hemp seed oil foods are experiencing incredible growth in natural food stores around the country. The recently-revived global hemp market is a thriving commercial success. The U.S. is the only major industrialized nation to prohibit the growing of industrial hemp.
Vote Hemp is a national non-profit organization dedicated to the acceptance of and a free market for industrial hemp and to changes in current law to allow U.S. farmers to once again grow hemp commercially.

The security software Total Safeguard Antivirus Assessment
Norton Antivirus security software 2014 is known as a powerful and reliable antimalware scanning engine. Antivirus program also automatically reports returning to its company when this sex session unknown detrimental and even benign files. Subsequently they has been renowned their application from Norton Antivirus" to Norton Security". I just like AVG, yet To discover an employing the free of charge version and lately I've been thinking that you need to devote in a great anti-virus system that I may trust.
We would be resting if we all stated the skipped malware and slow-moving diagnosing decided not to matter us, nonetheless features like Free from danger Funds with regards to guarding on the net repayments get back a number of our favor. This is undoubtedly the factor we all expended very much in a advancement a program that will bring you a synthesis of AMTSO accredited science lab evaluation outcomes the very best warning of the top rated antivirus program . The best thing is a quality antivirus that won't slow your personal computer down as you work. Significant pop-ups show up from period to period inside the underlying part place of your screen, inviting one to invest in the superior antivirus deal – or perhaps one of AVG's additional items. Restricting you to ultimately one internet reliability system also minimises the harmful impact of anti virus computer software upon the functionality of the LAPTOP OR COMPUTER .
When store shopping for House windows Antivirus program , there are many features which might be common to almost all courses, and some features that just the best program courses give . So when you are keen to basically seek out the very best reliability place for your needs – alternatively than depending on the fit that's already on the PC — AVG's family of products is an excellent place to start. Tiered pricing: Corporations have diverse tiers of pricing, usually using a basic nonetheless effective antivirus computer software rendition and more than one higher-priced variations with more features. When it comes down to that, the virtually all important thing when selecting antivirus security protection software software can be just how well this can safeguard your system against the two noted and unidentified threats.
Guarding the PC or Mac out of a disease is easy with internet protection software . I believe that their coverage is decreased then the avast's one particular when Avast themselves isn't going to find a lot of malware Avira does although We choose balance and dependability over extra 5-10% of protection . Eugene Kaspersky , the company's chief account manager, reports this individual would allow the United Areas administration to inspect his company's resource code to allay distrust of the antivirus and cybersecurity items. Bottom Tier: On the per-device most basic, Webroot Protect Everywhere Net Security Total will not price any more than the rated antivirus option ideal part with this suite.
There are three methods to select the ideal free of charge anti-virus : Reports of independent testers, qualified antivirus security software program assessments , and customer antivirus security software computer software testimonials . Possibly many free anti-virus courses outperform Ms anti-virus application with a substantial perimeter. Whenever you schedule on investing in an antivirus security protection software program , such as The security software , afterward I'd claim that you down load a paid out variant from the web page instead of modernizing one which came with the laptop. The greater extensive search that a Microsoft windows Antivirus software software program software can perform is what is known as the full have a look at. Network protection is extremely important to my firm, and among the widely employed and advised full version of antivirus applications that users want set up in order to remote VPN is certainly Sophos, so that says a great deal to me personally about the reliability on the software .
Total UTAV Expert mob.lesmauxdedos.com 2018 is without question a great ant-virus fit that stocks many of the features with others shown here, plus some welcome supplements. The extremely popular Malwarebytes Premium 4. 0 is definitely known to catch episodes that a lot of classic courses usually tend to let slip simply by. Threats this specific option focuses primarily on include Trojan horses, earthworms, spyware, and more .
With most different courses , you need to transform off the firewall forever game functionality which leaves your laptop wide open to malware and other bothersome intrusions and harm. This is certainly a extremely simple iphone app which usually doesn't provide any more features nonetheless has a very effective Google android antivirus browse .

Eloquence just flees sometimes when you don't know what to say.
So let's just start with a story. I have often contemplated the possibility of death. It has not frightened me- not mine, at any rate. I have just wondered how people would react were I dead. Unfortunately, the last two days have brought me uncomfortably close to death.
So, this is what happens. Shock for the first three hours. Grief for a day, or two, or a week, or a month. Soon, however, things start kicking in. Life starts going on. Projects have to still be submitted. Group IDs, that seemed so busy with condolence messages, start again with demands for projects/letters of recommendation/whatever.
I'm not saying its a bad thing. I'm not saying it shows a lack of feeling. I'm not disputing the factum of grief. Not saying that those who move on are ghouls. Some of them have lost much more than what most of us have
Just this: That life- for most of us- will go on eventually, a little poorer for the loss. There are very few people you are indispensable to, and when you go, you've pretty much shattered their lives. For all the others, your friends, your classmates, people you know- but not too well, things WILL eventually come back to...well, not normal as they knew it earlier, but a normal slightly off an axis. All I think one should do, is look at those who one IS indispensable to, and wonder what our actions will do to them. If you're lucky, you yourself will be one of them.
This was meant to be a condolence post when I started out. It isn't. Just rambling. Requiescat In Pace.

Well, that's not all I'm saying, but yes, if all other defenses fail, then this should be the last safety net.

Even THEIR lives will soon reconcile to the fact that you are no longer there...it may take longer...and may be harder on them...but it WILL happen...the only person one should live for is oneself...and when one finds that life is no longer desirable...one should give up life...life is at the same time too precious and too frivolous a thing to be lived for someone else...

Shrey: Spoken as someone who's never been suicidal. There are points in life, especially if you're not mentally all that sound, when you don't find life and living desirable, and if you need help, it's other people who make the seeking help worthwhile. :)

You don't get to hear the pipe organ very often these days. It truly is becoming a rare treat to hear a piece on the pipe organ... unless you are a student at St. Mark's Episcopal School in ALtadena, CA or a congregant of the Lake Avenue Congregational Church in Pasadena, CA. If you are either one of those, you would have the privilege of hearing Grace Chung play the organ on a regular basis.
And it really is a treat:
Grace will join the line-up of amazing talents on Friday, July 29th at the Walt Disney Concert Hall for our 15th Annual Benefit Concert. Tickets are available here.

ALTON — Michelle Ross would never describe the past year as a fun one, but thanks to the dedicated health care professionals at Alton Memorial Hospital she is looking forward to a bright future.
Ross, 42, found a lump on her breast last November that turned out to be breast cancer. A mother of six and grandmother of two more, she went through the full gamut of treatment at AMH — surgery, chemotherapy and radiation — and feels blessed by every bit of it.
"The environment where you are treated makes a big difference," Ross said. "Alton Memorial has been wonderful every step of the way. I can't thank Dr. (Joseph) Talsky enough for encouraging me to get everything checked as soon as I felt something. After we found out what it was for sure in January, Dr. (David) Chung did the lumpectomy. I just love him."
Following the surgery, Ross had chemotherapy treatments under the care of oncologist Dr. Mark Woodson, then 30 radiation treatments at the AMH Cancer Care Center under the care of Dr. Joel Simmons, nurse Toni Brummett and the Cancer Care team.
"Miss Toni and all of the nurses were so encouraging," Ross said. "Dr. Woodson was so good to me during the chemotherapy. But I have to be honest, I cried when I lost my hair. But I trusted God through the whole time. I kept going to church the whole time, and my pastor, Samuel White (at Monroe Memorial Church in Alton), also helped me through everything. Cancer is an eye-opener, but with God's help you can make it through anything."
"Michelle had not even had her first mammogram when she was diagnosed," Toni Brummett said. "That should be a reminder to all women to do monthly self-breast exams and schedule yearly mammograms. I know she was devastated by her diagnosis, but she has done great and is so grateful for her care. Michelle is a real success story."
October is Breast Health Awareness Month, but for Ross and others who have been through treatments, every month is a reminder and a blessing.
"Ms. Ross has been very positive throughout this difficult process of accepting the diagnosis and navigating the sometimes murky waters of tri-modality treatment," Simmons said. "It's a long journey through surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. She's been a pillar of faith and has had unwavering trust in our team at AMH."

After the Network Sonar Wizard discovers your network, the Network Sonar Results Wizard opens, allowing you to import network elements into your SolarWinds product. Nodes that are discovered do not count against your license count. Only nodes that you have added to the SolarWinds Orion database count against your license.
When you manually run discovery, by default, the system automatically selects all network elements to be monitored. You must clear the check boxes for elements you do not want monitored.
If you are discovering your network for the first time, SolarWinds recommends that you monitor a small number of devices.
After discovery, if the status of a node is Unknown, you may need to check a few settings in SolarWinds SAM. See Troubleshoot Unknown Nodes for more information.
SolarWinds recommends that you do not monitor VoIP interfaces or NULL interfaces.
By default, SolarWinds NPM imports interfaces that are discovered in an Operationally Up state. However, because interfaces may cycle off and on, you can also select Operationally Down or Administratively Shutdown states for import.
SolarWinds recommends that you do not monitor compact disks or removable disks.

Lipstick, the male Lana, Little Boots and Lucy
It would be fair to say that I am engaged in a rather intense and quite beautiful love affair with Taylor Swift at the moment, so much so that I would be utterly miffed if I were not the subject of her next country-infused love ballad.
As a writer, I am quite in awe of Swift's natural skills as a lyricist; at 14, she was the youngest songwriter ever hired by Sony/ATV Music publishing and has since gone on to be honoured by the Nashville Songwriters Association and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. But putting all that aside – her songs are just so catchy, she wears great lipstick and she seems really cool!
Taylor Swift 's fourth studio album, 'Red', is out now.
Josef Salvat is an Australian singer-songwriter, who has been described as the male Lana Del Rey. I can definitely see the similarities in melancholic delivery and sepia-prone music video backdrops, but I think that Salvat has a more ironic, almost comical in part, demeanour which appears lighter in shade than Del Rey. I would define Salvat as classic soul-tinged pop and I look forward to hearing more from this artist.
'This Life' is released on March 25th, 2013.
'Motorway' is the first track taken from Little Boots' second studio album, 'Nocturnes' (set for release on May 5th, 2013) and is available now as a free download from her website. I really like this track, which has a darker electro-dance feel than previous releases from the platinum-haired Blackpool native. I've always likened Little Boots to Kylie, particularly during the 'Light Years' era and the similarities are especially evident on this track. 'Nocturnes' is said to celebrate "90s house, seventies disco and futuristic electronics" (Hesketh) – sounds good to me.
Lucy Rose is a folk singer-songwriter from Surrey, UK, who I first saw live in March, 2012 when she supported Noah & The Whale on their UK tour. Rose's debut album, 'Like I Used To', is out now and 'Shiver' is the latest track to be released from the record. The combination of Rose's delicate, emotive vocals playing out over the romantic reminiscences of the video is quite touching and works really well. Plus, any video with a beach location is always a winner for me; the song 'I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside' could well have been written about me.

crate of large sausages....
I'm going to warn you about going through his site, lots of naked dude pictures, I've asked him to give me a warning but always always always have to fast click away from his blog in public. haha whatever, I've sort of grown to like those posts (didn't at first, I told you that)
I think whats important to remember about ideas is that you will keep having them. Its not like your brain will dry up and you'll never have another good idea in your life. I mean, I think thats what a lot of us fear, but its really unrealistic to actually happen.
Also school puts a whole new dimension on 'ideas'...because they aren't even ideas anymore, they are school projects. Especially when its a group dynamic and people weigh in on your ideas right away and your brainstorming on the spot and for me that is a tough way to be creative.
I also try and save my ideas for later, especially on this blog, partly because I think I fear ^^ (running out of good ideas) and partly because I am lazy. I think, I'll do that post later, when I'm more organized and have more readers and and and.
and then it never happens because in a couple weeks my mood has shifted and its not the post I want to write anyway.
Must get to school.
Here are the search terms people are using to get to my blog.

Hahahahha whaaaaat? Have you even posted about some of those things...I mean, really?
Also, in order to comment on your blog I have to prove I'm not a robot and I don't like it because a) I always want to comment and b) half the time I can't even freaking read them and then I have to try for like 10 mins just to leave a comment.
So what I'm inadvertently asking is, can you please remove that option? K, thanks!
Also, new shoesies are on their way to yousies!!

Hannes Artens and Pandora's Box
With Hannes Artens coming to speak at Ithaca College February 13th, I've been doing some research on the author's views and political presence, in particular looking through the presentation of his various connected websites which include CAN and the Secular Student Alliance (??). His writing about his latest book, The Writing on the Wall, has its own narrative metaphor as he attempts to break down the pretense of the American government's path to war with Iraq as an entrenched way of walking to war with Iran.
"A coalition of aching-for-Armageddon televangelists, big oil, and false prophets of democracy manipulate maverick, straight-talking Senator-become-President- in '08, Jim Whitman into aerial strikes against Tehran. This is a confrontation he knows the United States must avoid by all means. Yet the spirits he has cited and pandered to on his road to the White House no longer follow his command. When the cakewalk into Iran becomes a gauntlet, the Vietnam veteran- turned-dove-by-conscience is soon decried as a reckless warmonger by the public and besieged in the West Wing by cut-and-run protesters while the American Empire stumbles over the abyss into a military quagmire, economic depression and possible nuclear war.
The Writing on the Wall is as much a no-holds-barred accounting of the last six years as a forceful premonition of what may follow. With provocative frankness and an abundance of political allusions some will find too realistic to handle, this cautionary tale exposes the forces that opened the Pandora's Box of the Middle East. Through stirring personal fates, it guides us into the gray area where today's frightening fiction can become the future's bloody fact. A future we may still have the power to change…"
Though I'll wait till his presentation to decide whether our views are similarly matched, the use of such strong narrative language is something to consider. I'm not so much a fan of pulling the "fiction into fact" and "Pandora's Box" out into just the promotional materials for a piece of literature– Pandora's Box in particular creates a rather negative and all-consuming image of that ever-nebulous Middle East, only further perpetuating the media bias that all countries and people can be lumped into a single mysterious box of dynamite. There we go with the metaphors again.

Juvo Identity Scoring
Company: Juvo, San Francisco, CA USA
Company Description: Juvo partners with mobile operators to establish financial identities for billions of people worldwide who are creditworthy, yet financially excluded. Juvo provides the underbanked with real-time credit, using data-science driven Identity Scoring to create identity-based relationships with anonymous prepaid users, providing access to otherwise unattainable financial services.
Nomination Category: Products & Product Management Categories
Nomination Sub Category: Best New Product or Service of the Year - Telecommunications - Service
Nomination Title: Juvo Identity Scoring for Cable & Wireless Communications
Tell the story about this nominated product or service (up to 650 words). Describe its function, features, benefits, and performance to date:
Juvo and Cable & Wireless have joined forces drive access to mobile credit services and drive financial inclusion to the underserved population across 15 Caribbean markets.
Juvo's Identity Scoring technology allows prepaid users to request credit extensions for immediate usage, dramatically improving customer experience and satisfaction. Cable & Wireless deployed Identity Scoring under the brand name Flow Lend and is already delivering credit extensions to 25% of the smartphone market in the Caribbean, and customers are consuming 10% more of the company's products and services and have raised loyalty levels by 50%.
A new report by Juvo revealed that data-science driven mobile financial services will significantly impact the global pre-paid market, increasing operator revenues by as much as USD $70 billion.
Flow Lend uses data science and game mechanics to build real-time subscriber personas allowing C&W to personalize lending criteria and provide immediate credit extensions. By re-imagining the prepaid experience, the app initially enables Flow prepaid customers to request credit advances for airtime and data, reducing zero balance days and progressively increasing access to services.
The Caribbean market has been quick to respond to the new Flow Lend app with thousands of positive mentions and reviews from users. For instance, one user said: "I love it Flow Lend– I just topped up and I had until 3 October to repay with no interest. Bye-bye Digicel, I'm not gonna cry" (September 12, 2016).
A great example of how Flow Lend has impacted the individual user is Jackie, a single mother of three and a janitor at a local school in rural Jamaica. Jackie is the first face to showcase the compelling impact Juvo is making in the lives of underbanked and underserved individuals. Like many of those millions of subscribers, her phone is her lifeline - her only means of communication and access to the internet. When Jackie can't get to a top-up location, or doesn't have cash, she can't use her phone. At any given moment, 20% of people like Jackie are at zero-balance and many are without phone usage for 5-6 days out of every month. Juvo's identity scoring analyzes daily mobile behavior to generate scores and quantifies a relationship with the operator. As a result, Jackie can use her score to borrow voice, data, and balance -- and through her interactions, she can improve her score to access more and more services. Eventually, Jackie's Identity Score will give her access to life-transforming benefits like banking, small business and education loans, insurance, and even healthcare. (See Jackie's experience in the video under supporting assets.)
Flow Lend has been a boon to the mobile operator as well.
"We are delighted by the impact that Juvo's Identity Scoring innovation has had on our business and our service delivery to customers. Flow Lend is one of the most successful innovations we have launched, delivering remarkable results i.e. increases in ARPU and customer engagement, in such a short period of time," said James McElvanna, VP Products, Cable & Wireless Communications. "Flow Lend has become the 'blueprint' for the launch of similar 'digital transformation' services across Cable & Wireless Communications."
-Consumer conversion: once a consumer has the app and a low credit balance is detected, Flow Lend, through its proprietary technology, is able to convert between 40% and 50% of these users to borrowers.
-Increased engagement and usage: Increased engagement and usage: On average, users of Flow Lend have increased their revenue of Cable and Wireless telecoms services by more than 10%
-Frequency and repayment: Average borrower is takes 4.5 loans per month and 98% of loans are paid back, on average within three days
-ARPU Lift: Prepaid ARPU increases by 10-15% among users within the rst 30 days of deployment
-Churn Reduction: Prepaid churn is reduced by 50% among users within 90 days
-Lifetime Value increase: Over 50% increase in lifetime value

Giacomo Giamba is the ruler of the Vinci city-state of Miana following the assassination of his elder brother Petruzzo by the Doge of Venucci.
In the single player campaign of Rise of Legends, Giacomo is the primary protagonist, and the player starts each mission with control of his unique walker unit, except for the first campaign mission, where he is riding a horse. His walker is eventually acquired, in the following mission, when its transport convoy was ambushed viciously. In the following campaign segments, Giacomo upgrades and improves his walker and the Clockwork Men that he begins with.
Giacomo is a renowned inventor and technological genius. As such, it was his brother Petruzzo, rather than Giacomo, who was groomed from birth to lead Miana. Despite his brother's beliefs, Petruzzo never interfered with Giacomo's abilties as an inventor throughout his reign.
Throughout the campaign against the Doge, Giacomo expresses doubts as to his competence to lead effectively.
Despite these feelings, Giacomo proves himself to be an able leader, willing to quickly adapt new technologies and methods to his cause.
Giacomo also displays a keen ability to win friends to his cause, earning the allegiance of many powerful foreign leaders, among whom Lenora of Pirata and Arri of the Alin kingdom.
Walker Edit
Before freeing his mechnical mount, Giacomo had to make do with a sidearm, and a horse. Then after finally acquiring his walker, Giacomo commands his troops in the front lines; Modified to use a variety of gadgets to help his troops, Giacomo can make the tables turn against the bitter enemy. He attacks with a grenade launcher with an AOE attack.

Veteran Vossloh looks to next Etihad Rail stages
German rail group Vossloh, an experienced player in the regionŌĆÖs railway sector, has the next stages of Etihad Rail in its sights as it builds on convincing project wins in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Dubai-based Fr├®d├®ric Milliet, director of Vossloh Middle East, said: ŌĆ£We have plenty of existing projects, especially in Saudi and the UAE, but we have a bit everywhere, including in Iraq and Iran.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£We are targeting all the railway projects, including conventional railways, high-speed, tram and metros, focusing on the main contractors, consultants and the final customer, the railway networks.ŌĆØ
Having manufactured rail components since 1883, the German group now provides both track elements and rolling stock, supplying both shunting and main line locomotives.
In Saudi Arabia, where Vossloh started to work in the 70s, ŌĆ£there are always new projects,ŌĆØ said Milliet, and the group is currently providing switches and fastening systems for Kingdom lines.
Vossloh began working in the UAE in 2007 with the supply of switches for the Dubai Metro, and is currently delivering around 100 switches and the fastening systems for the first stage of Etihad Rail.
Milliet continued: ŌĆ£We hope of course to be successful for the remaining stages of Etihad Rail, phase two and phase three, but we are looking also at Qatar of course, like everybody ŌĆō first the metro, but of course we are looking at everything else, future conventional lines, etc.ŌĆØ
Fr├®d├®ric Milliet will be holding a seminar at Middle East Rail 2013 on high-speed grinding technology.

text: There are other articles about this, but this one does the best job that I have seen in describing the vicious political process that produced this disgrace, controlled of course by veto threats and lobbying $$$$ behind the GOP. Democrats apparently finally caved out of fear they would be blamed for a 10% pay cut for Medicare doctors due to take effect Jan. 1 if they did not bow to GOP demands to push the S-CHIP issue past the 2008 elections. They should have stood their ground and called the GOP bluff, this is a disgrace. All of those responsible should have this hanging over their consciences during the holiday season. Too bad they don't give a damn.

Last fall, the Sunday before Thanksgiving to be precise, I was visited by my new good buddy Jeff Evans from up Virginia way. We did the whole nine yards beer wise; we traded some beers, enjoyed a few at Taco Mac, and then came back to my house to pop a few growlers I had picked up at Stout's here in Canton. One of these was Reformation Winter Scout Stout.
I didn't take notes then (we were having too much fun and I had too many before to judge fairly), but no worries, the beer showed up a few months later at the aforementioned Taco Mac here in Canton. Reformation is fast growing on me, not solely because of their proximity (they're about ten miles from my house) but also because they brew such wonderful beers. Winter Scout Stout is a great example, and is a draft-only seasonal release.
Reformation Winter Scout Stout is described as a "Tart Winter Ale. It has an alcohol content of 7.2% by volume, perfect to shake off that winter chill. I paid $7.25 for a 32-ounce growler at Stout's, and $5 for an 11-ounce glass at Taco Mac. So, pretty reasonable this one.
Ingredients listed from the brewery website:
Roasted malts, flaked oats, back barley
Ginger, Allspice, nutmeg cinnamon & clove
Lemon, orange peel & honey
My glass of Reformation Winter Scout Stout arrived a jet black color with a rather thin head of silky tan foam and a robust nose of clove and ginger with hints of citrus fruit. Taking a sip the beer has a lightly roasty palate with a full mouthfeel and lots of spice; the clove and ginger being most apparent to me with much dry nutmeg and a sour tart citrus rind finish to round it out. As the beer warms, the cinnamon comes out a bit.
I very much enjoyed this beer both times I tasted it, though I'll confess my recollections being much better on the second sampling. Here's hoping Winter Scout returns for 2016. I for one will be scouting it out.
Update 12/16/2017: Sadly, I didn't run across Reformation Winter Scout The Storyteller stout for the Christmas season of 2016. Good news though! For 2017, Reformation has made it easier than ever to find, now in cans. I bought a six-pack at Target for $9.49, and was very happy to see it offered. Much the same as above, but much more clove than I recall. Wonderful new addition to my annual holiday beer lineup.
And remember, try a new beer today, and drink outside the box.

We're all starving like fuck and a few doors down from Susan's house is a takeaway – Cantonese and Peking Cuisine – and we go in there and after a great deal of pissed up fucking about arguing, we go and finally get loads of dishes that we're going to share with her boyfriend Bob. As I've taken control I do the ordering and shout up: Beef Chop Suey, Stir Fried Chicken with Baby Corn, Sweet and Sour King Prawn Balls, Lemon Chicken – I fucking love Lemon Chicken – Fried Mixed Veggies, Pancake Rolls and two portions of Special Fried Rice. It worked out about eleven quid each not including how post-order Christine decided she wanted a Banana Fritter which I ordered and paid out of my own money and this also added time to our exit as they did what needed doing to cook a fucking Banana Fritter. But who fucking cares. The green light to paradise was still shining down on me and Christine. We were gonna have some tonight. I was definitely a starving horse about to be fed his oats. We went to Susan's house and I was immediately introduced to Bob and I tried to do the decent thing in a strangers house by trying to act all together as well as convince the bloke that I hadn't been shagging his bird all afternoon. He shook my hand and seemed genuinely friendly enough even though most small blokes who wear glasses usually are. I mean, by their very presence they're hardly equipped to go about their lives at war with us lot. Most sensible small blokes all know that they just have to except their placing in the general scheme of things and get on with it. Handle the piss takes if and when it happens to be dished out in their direction and don't get all self important and try and make a name for yourself. It never ever works out in their favour when they try to be Bruce Willis when they've had a few jars of courage. Bob's sort will always lose out. It's the law of the jungle. So with that said, I didn't really have a problem telling him whereabouts I lived. I might look like I'm from the
Bob ate more than any of us, although I didn't do too bad. What fucked me off was that Christine had made a right big fuss about getting a Banana Fritter after we'd already ordered and had to wait an extra five minutes for her and now as we're sitting here all finished, I notice that she's only taken one mouse sized bite out of it, the very same Banana Fritter that's slumped on the hard shoulder against the piled up mountain which happens to be the rest of the food she's also failed to touch. What a fucking waste. I could have got the right hump. But fuck it. Fact is, I have big plans. I need to stay cool here.
We go to watch some old DVD which Bob tells me is his all time favourite film. It was Shallow Grave. I've seen it before and it was okay, but no way would you call it brilliant though as the flatmates in it were all cunts and deserved to die. I fell asleep soon into the film and when I awoke it had finished and little four-eyed Bob and sexy Susan are dishing out the polite goodnights as they take out the plates and then Susan came back with some bedding and we're all rather foolishly saying goodnight again and then in a sort of embarrassed silence me and Christine Dean, while avoiding eye contact, make up a bed on the floor using the cushions from the sofa and the two armchairs as a mattress. The door's partially open, letting in some light from the hallway, and I'm hoping that Bob and Susan won't have a problem leaving it on for a while as I like to see what I'm doing. As most birds who know me and have been there will tell you.
We're still not speaking or acknowledging each other as we undress and then as soon as we get under the quilt cover and our knees touch it instantly becomes the signal for me to start and I reckon it was under two minutes when I had Christine Dean pushed up on all fours arse high and I was in there licking and fingering her in both holes. I was frantic. It was great. She was responding well and I soon had my cock up her. It was total no nonsense. Mad and barmy. So fucking brilliant as I try to truly appreciate this moment as here I am banging into her. I'm pulling her shoulders back and battering her in and out as fast as I can go but it seems that all the beer consumed during what has been a brilliant day is now numbing all sensation and it's not helping me achieve my ultimate goal. I have to think quickly on my knees and so I pull out my cock and stick two fingers up her and now that I'm lubricated by her juices I'm onto opening up her arse again and seeing that there's still no vocal opposition, I quickly seize on the moment and stick my long fat cock up there and it feels so much better, it really does, and now I'm possessed and I'm banging into her so hard, so fast, and I'm totally oblivious to her surrendered shape as I just keep looking down, concentrating hard on the visible portion of the rod of my cock going in and out of her arse all mechanically like a piston from George Stephenson's Rocket or something and I think I can hear her acknowledge my good work, the work of my rocket, my best endeavour in pissed up circumstances and I go and try raise the game further, speed up the ride, I'm now slapping her tiny tight arse cheeks as this 7-4 favourite continues to slut it on home full of the thrust and speed of her brilliant rider – the dirty cow's fucking loving it more than I am – and I'm well clear of the chasing pack and I'm in such good health here despite all the beer consumed during what has been a brilliant day and the dark thoughts that now make themselves known to me as I continue on with the job are dealt with as I'm on such a rush that this is at long last really happening for me again, I am back, Jim Best, well and truly back on the saddle, and on and on I continue to push myself faster and further than I've ever been before and I'm knackered but getting faster all the time and I try not to get hypnotised by the speed of my cock sorting out this tidy anal slut and on we go and I'm wondering how long I can keep this up for but I'm wanting a finish now cos I'm feeling knackered so to add to the thrill I'm now knocking off a few years off of her, turning her into a sweet fifteen year old school slut who has crept downstairs and let me in through the back door with ma and pa oblivious to what I'm doing to their loving innocent daughter who just loves it shoved right up her, always keenly begs for it up the arse and this drives me to new magnificent heights and I want to shout out and let the world know how good this all is, but I'm in Bob's house and you can't do that sort of thing cos he's got a kid up there and anyway there's no way I can have him getting images, having a sneaky wank to our dirty noises all carefully so Susan doesn't know what he's really doing over on his side of the bed, so I copy Christine and keep my volume on mute and instead I home in on the beautiful sight of the receiver and then incredibly I realise that I haven't even got her tits out yet, so I waste no time and push her T-shirt aggressively up to her shoulders which she plays up on and tries to resist while I continue to pump into her and then I keep the game going and reach under and rip her small tits out from her tight bra and I have a small grab with my left hand while the right sees to clutching a fistful of her hair, pulling her head back so that I can work my way up there another inch or so as she jerks back grunting away and I reckon I really could just go on like this all night if I really wanted to and I'm just keeping my concentration going working myself up for big explosion and then incredibly, from out of nowhere, I'm registering some negative resistance going on here and it's not in the script either and therefore it ain't going down well and it all gets worse cos the fucking bitch is actually right at this very moment telling me to stop, and I lose my way, confused, as I'm dropped from such a great height, confused until the emotion is replaced by complete outrage as I can now see clearly that there's stewards on the track waving red flags and trying to fucking well call off the race as I'm about to cross the finishing line and she really is telling me to stop, this is no joke, JIM, ARGGH, STOP! ARGGH, STOP! PLEASE JIMMEE. ARGGH, STOP! PLEE EASE! ARGGH, NO. NO JIM. JIM, JIMMEE! NO! PLEASE JAMES STOP! and having hit the alarm name, calling me James, I appreciate in how this is seriously mad, not nice, and she's now uttering her pleases in some honourable controlled half muted way as if she's now trying not to bring this apparent out of the blue disaster what's going on here to the attention of those above us and I look up from what was once the gifted magic of sex and now I can see and hear that she's crying, pure concentrated devastation, and I just want to continue, finish the race, the job, bury my rich seed up her arse, but she's really fucking going mental here, sobbing badly, and I go and pull up abruptly and before I know what to do next I go humiliatingly soft and as I do I fall off the saddle.At exactly the same time I impact the floor, the hall light sinisterly goes out and now we're both in total darkness and initially I'm happy because Christine can't see my face and then I'm wondering if Bob and Susan really have heard any of this and I'm laying on my back and I know that Christine has moved well away from me and she then goes and confirms this as she pulls almost the whole of the quilt her way and for the first time in my life I genuinely feel like I've just committed rape.
Naked and lying on my back in the dark and with the broken whimpering to my left continuing to haunt me, it really does feel so horrific.

KOCHI: A month after the state Director General of Police issued a directive to take action against those engaged in killing stray dogs, Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said that no cases will be filed against those who kill rabid dogs.
The minister, who is also an animal lover, in a Facebook post, expressed concern over the growing instances of rabid dogs attacking people.
"I am an animal lover, who loves to feed and nurture them. However, the state is facing such a precarious situation where stray and rabid dogs bite and attack people injuring them seriously. It has became a serious situation and is affecting the daily life of people. Hence, we cannot sit by and watch the situation idly. There is nothing wrong in killing those dogs which attack and spread rabies. No case registered against anybody who does kills such animals," said the Minister.
Numerous cases of dog bites have been reported across the state in recent months and there has been an huge public outcry demanding culling of these violent dogs. Recently, three persons belonging to 'Theruvu Naaya Unmoolana Sangam' (Stray Dog Eradication Group) were arrested for allegedly culling four animals at Perumbavoor near here.
The arrests comes after the DGP directed the district police chiefs to take necessary action against those engaged in illegal culling of stray dogs, acting upon a letter from the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI). The minister's statement apparently comes in the wake of widespread public protest against the police decision to arrest the three men.
AWBI had asked the police to take action against the group and industrialist Kochouseph Chittilappilly who supported the move. Chittilappilly has announced that he will be staging a 24-hour hunger strike on Sunday in protest against the failure of the authorities in containing the stray dog menace.
Last month, the state government had directed civic bodies to take necessary steps to control rapidly increasing number of strays. Chief Minister Oommen Chandy had assured that animal birth control, vaccination and providing treatment to dog bite victims are part of programmes proposed to tackle the menace.
The states' tourism sector has been on the receiving end since last couple of months with a group of animal activists and AWBI launching an online campaign '#boycottKerala' in the social networking mediums over the stray dog issue in the state.

New President, No Problem
Late in the fall semester of 2014, former University of Dayton president Dr. Dan Curran announced his plan to end his 14-year presidency term. At that point in time, my only experience with our president had been when I was exiting a building and was unexpectedly greeted by a tall and smiling umbrella-yielding Dr. Curran. My heart dropped into my socks as I nervously greeted him in return. Shortly thereafter, Dr. Eric Spina was given the nod as the new president (how do you pronounce his name? SPEEN-UH or SPIN-UH?). As a freshman I remember thinking this change of leadership would most likely have little impact on me, a lowly undergraduate student. After experiencing a few months of his presidency as a junior, my initial thoughts about our university's new "fearless leader" were quite mistaken.
My first experience with Dr. Spina (it's pronounced SPEEN-UH, by the way) came in the summer of 2016 when I was interning in an ecology research lab on campus (SEE PREVIOUS BLOG). During his first week as the official new president, Dr. Spina came to a lunch for all undergraduate students participating in scientific research. After lunch, Dr. Spina then spoke about UD's emphasis and dedication toward undergraduate research. Further prompted by student questions, one of which was from myself (after admitting that I had been creeping on him online), Dr. Spina explained how excited and humbled he was to begin his presidency term at UD. I specifically remember him saying that UD already "feels like home."
There is very little Dr. Spina isn't doing to show his commitment to UD students, save perhaps mopping floors (however I am unable to keep tabs on the man around the clock, so I can neither confirm nor deny this). He wants to be an active member of the community, not just the guy who makes all the big decisions. Dr. Spina has ventured into dining halls for lunch to interact with students face to face, to understand what students think "off the record." His social media outlets, while also more expansive than my own, are constantly featuring the students he is engaged with. He is even watching out for students when they least expect it: Friday nights in the student neighborhood. The new prez tagged along with a public safety cruiser to get a true feel of UD's student experience (Featured in a blog from the president). I have even learned of student testimonials of emailing Dr. Spina about racial tension that is present on campus. Dr. Spina replied to the emails personally.
The man simply wants to learn in order to understand, and understand in order to immerse fully in the UD community. The University of Dayton is not a stepping-stone in the career path of one Dr. Eric Spina. To him this is home. Well, let me know wherever the battle is, Dr. Spina. I'll be right behind you.

Japanese BB Shikishima
1/700 scale resin ship by Modelkrak
Japanese BB Shikishima
1/700 scale resin waterline ship by Modelkrak
Quick look review by Steve Jantscher
Resin- A
Decals- n/a
Photoetch - n/a
This is another of the excellent all-resin products from the house of "Jadar-Models". Like the rest, the resin is finely cast, capturing and retaining the fine details of the prototype without the any obvious casting defects like bubbles or warped pieces. One is supplied with an overabundance of little (well they would be at this scale) boats and gun barrels. Jadar models continues to surprise and please me with their excellent value in finely cast models. Unfortunately, they also suffer from a continuing lack of clear and detailed instructions. Below are reproduced the full extent of the instructions. These would be sufficient for a very well know and documented subject. But for a turn of the last century Japanese Battleship the instructions are woefully inadequate., I know a number of modelers like me who might buy this kit because these old BB's look funky and would make up into a very nice model, that have very little to no research material to help them build such a ship kit. I suppose one might argue that the enclosed diagram is all that any modeler might need, but I believe that would be pushing the point. This kit supplies too many boats, funnels and barrels to leave their placement up to the small two view diagram of the prototype supplied in the instructions.
Not included in the kit are painting instructions, photoetch or decals.
All the hardware (except perhaps some photoetch, available as generic railings and ladders from Gold Medal Models or Tom's Modelworks at Roll Models) is present to make a bang-up model. What is missing is sufficient "software" in the form of more detailed instructions so that any model builder can build it with a degree of certainty that the parts are going where they are supposed to.

While I was at Madison, I taught an English discussion and pronunciation class at the community center. Learning about new languages and cultures thrills me, so being an ESL tutor in Madison and now, in Sheboygan, is one of my favorite things. I have been working with the Literacy Council for a year and half and am amazed by the persistence and passion our students have both for learning English and for connecting with our tutors and community. Also, working in hospitality at Kohler allows me to meet and work with people from all over, something I really enjoy. In addition to volunteering with the Literacy Council, I am the vice president of the Italian American Women's Club in Madison and enjoy helping the I-94 Project fight human trafficking in Wisconsin.
