Let me get this out of the way first: Yotsubato! has no story. It is not “about” anything. There is no point. It does not go anywhere. The manga could be classified as falling within the genre of comedy, but it doesn’t really try to be funny. The reader never really learns anything about the characters, and the relationships between the characters show almost no development. Nothing important or exciting happens.
Let me also get this out of the way: Yotsubato! is one of my favorite manga in the whole wide world.
I have been fond of Azuma Kiyohiko’s four-panel manga Azumanga Daioh ever since the translation was released in America in 2002. I also enjoyed the anime based on said manga. When defunct American manga publisher ADV Manga started releasing translations of Yotsubato!, Azuma’s new project following the completion of Azumanga Daioh, I picked up the first volume immediately. Unfortunately, I found myself disappointed. It wasn’t a fun manga to read. I didn’t get it. The dialog was translated in a way that was supposed to be wacky and zany, but I didn’t think the manga itself was that funny. The art was a little weird, too. A year later, in 2007, I went to Japan to find Yotsubato! featured prominently at almost every major bookstore in Tokyo and Yokohama – most memorably at the Tsutaya in Shibuya, which had an entire wall devoted to Yotsuba paraphernalia. The cover of the Japanese publication of the manga was approximately five hundred times more appealing than the cover of the translation, so I picked up a copy. While reading it on the train home, I fell in love.
Yotsubato! follows the daily life of a five-year-old girl named Yotsuba. Having been orphaned on an island somewhere outside of Japan (the circumstances are never made clear to the reader), Yotsuba has been taken in by a man named Koiwai, who seems to be in his late twenties or early thirties and makes his living as a translator. At the beginning of the first volume of the manga, Yotsuba and her adopted father move into a new house in the suburbs of a city assisted by Koiwai’s friend Jumbo, a florist with a preference for Hawaiian shirts whose name reflects his comically enormous stature. After moving in, Yotsuba and Koiwai (and Jumbo, who visits from time to time) become friends with the family living next door, which consists of a mother, a daughter in college, a daughter in high school, and a daughter a year or two older than Yotsuba (the father of the family never makes an appearance). Although other friends of Koiwai and the next-door neighbors are occasionally introduced, Yotsubato! mainly revolves around this core set of characters and their interactions. The manga moves slowly from day to day. Over the course of nine volumes, its leisurely pace has taken it from the middle of summer to the very beginning of fall.
What I love about this manga is this very slowness. I wouldn’t describe this work as “contemplative,” however; Yotsuba herself is very curious and energetic, and her adopted father is something of a character as well. There is nothing boring about the manga, but its focus on the mundane allows the reader to take a step back from his or her own presumably hectic life and enjoy an endless summer full of daytrip adventures and small discoveries. This is not to say that Yotsubato! somehow resembles something like My Neighbor Totoro. The manga is written from an adult perspective, and the reader is constantly encouraged to identify with the people who surround Yotsuba rather than with the girl herself. The occasional jokes that the manga makes are sophisticated, and the adult speech and relationships are not sanitized or downplayed.
The attention to detail expressed in every aspect of the manga finds its most visible outlet in its gorgeous artwork. As I noticed when I first read the manga in America, it takes Azuma several chapters to settle on his character designs, which are drawn in his unique style. The rest of the visual realm, however, is drawn in an almost photorealistic way, from the tiniest detail of the interior architecture of Yotsuba’s house to the products lining the shelves of a neighborhood convenience store. Aside from the shade of Yotsuba’s unique hair, there is almost no screen tone used in the manga; everything is conveyed in understated ink work, which miraculously never clutters the page or busies the panels. The slightly cartoonish characters provide a pleasing contrast to this sort of detailed background. I feel like the background art in this manga captures the essence of a Japanese suburb far away from Tokyo; so, even while I was reading this manga in Yokohama, it made me feel nostalgic for living in Japan.
I suppose you could say that I enjoy this manga because of its pace, its narrative tone, and its art. I’m not really sure, though, what makes Yotsubato! different from any other “slice of life” manga, but it is different. I have said before that I think manga can be considered literature, but Yotsubato! is not literature. It is a masterwork of an entirely different medium of artistic expression. Really, I think Yotsubato! stands alongside the works of Urasawa Naoki and Asano Inio as an exemplar of what manga is capable of.
Although I am a great believer in translation, I feel that Yotsubato! is much more enjoyable in the original Japanese. Thankfully, even beginning students of Japanese should not find the dialog in the manga to be prohibitively difficult. For those readers who have no Japanese language background, however, a new English translation of the manga is currently being published under the title of “Yotsuba&!” by Yen Press.
I think the following two pages demonstrate the style of the manga. In the middle of a late summer typhoon, Yotsuba runs into the storm to warn her next door neighbors to be careful. In her haste, she forgets her umbrella, so her adopted father runs after her to give it to her. Upon catching up with her, he finds her already drenched, so….

I always wondered what that panel was from.
It’s really hard to explain that genre to new readers. I’m always at a loss about Azumanga Daioh! because if I say, “It’s about some girls in middle school and it’s really funny,” it fails to articulate the subtle and not-so-subtle wackiness of the show. Which I need to finish watching.
I’m going to die when I no longer have easy access to Book Off.
The end of Azumanga Daioh made me cry and cry and cry. Not because it was sad, but because it was so beautiful. I wish my high school experience had been like that. It’s just a light-hearted, silly show, but it made me think a lot about memory and nostalgia, and about what experiences in our lives are important, and about how we choose to remember them. Also, I thought I would die when Sakaki-san finally gets a kitten. She is my hero.
Thank you for your review. BTW, the neighbour’s father does appear rarely e.g. in Vol 3 Ch 20, where eldest daughter Asagi doesn’t recognize him. A few pages of banter between father and daughter ensues.

Aaah! .....you're "reasonably" intelligent!!!: Life on the farm.
Good news....... the need for a heart pace maker has been placed on the back burner for 6 months. My partner's breathlessness and tiredness has lessoned so all is well so far. Such a relief to learn that. From a purely selfish point of view; no hospital visiting and trying to find parks and endless walking along corridors and dealing with medical staff. Feckin Hooray!!!!
She is recovering from a fall supposedly at the dining area at the Home. I was called within 10 minutes by a very concerned nurse. They were awaiting the ambulance to take her to the hospital for a check. I phoned the hospital, talked to the doctor handling her and was amazed that an Xray was not ordered, after all it is her right hip area! She returned to the home later that night.
I visited and she is OK except for soreness and one hell of a bruise. We all breathed sighs of relief as the last thing any one wants is a broken hip. I've been told that the elderly do not live very long after a hip fracture. Mum is now 88 and does have trouble walking. She has one older sister left who is 92 yrs old. Her brothers all died before reaching 60!
My 2 siblings are still living in Mum's home and supposedly paying the insurance and council rates. Nothing else. No rent or repairs. I don't speak to them now since my last attempt to get them to pay their way became heated and futile. My brother said he would do jail time over me?? But then... he is a psychotic narcissist. Really scary stuff there. I'll be keeping my distance.
I'm older. I thought I was wise but time has proven that I am not! Can not tolerate what the politicians and the pen pushers are doing to our population and country. We need to stand and fight for our rights. Remember Hitler? Remember Stalin. Remember George W. Bush. Now we have our own dictators in Australia. Do not let it happen again. Protest,sign petitions, write letters.

We are Z Patisserie, a family-run baking business created by local pastry chef, Linda Zimmerman.
about dessert and dedicated to providing the most memorably delicious treats for any occasion.
All through my childhood and early adulthood, my mom and I would plan outings together based on what we would have for dessert. After I had my own children, I continued that tradition by frequenting afternoon teas and local bakeries with them. As my children grew up and I began to travel, the focus of my trips always revolved around going to local markets and patisseries in each place I visited. So after decades of tasting, baking, researching and a few professional pastry courses completed, I have finally put my passion to work and created Z Patisserie.
Baking has always made me happy. I hope our desserts make you happy too.

Since the announcement of the new Rolex Daytona at this year’s Baselworld, the watch world has been abuzz about just when it would arrive in stores and how long the average buyer might have to wait. All along, Rolex touted late summer as the expected release date â and then a funny thing happened â a lucky few got a phone call from their local AD’s this week, saying the first batch of Daytonas had arrived. Two of our team members were included, Mr. John Mayer and Mr. Ben Clymer. After the two received the watches, they hopped on the phone to talk about it, and what they think it means to them, watch collectors at large, and what it means to Rolex. Read an abridged transcript below.
So you and I are among the first two to receive the new Daytona in the country â I don’t think there is a single first â but we’re in the first batch, we know that. And I think the excitement about this watch takes some dissecting. There is the watch itself, and then there is the esteem of getting the watch. One of them stays, and the other one doesn’t.
Right, and I think both points are worth exploring here. But what’s amazing is that though a few of the people I sent pictures to once I received the watch do indeed have their names on the list for one as well, most of them did not. Which means their reactions were not plagued by annoyance that I got the call and they didn’t, they just wanted to see the watch, and experience it. And I think that speaks a lot to the quality and purity of the design of this Daytona, which has zero to do with a wait list or being early to own it.
Agreed. You know when I took the watch out of the box, I think I may have spent the least time looking at it of any watch i’ve purchased in years. It has very little stare factor. I got it, put it on, and immediately just started owning it. And that, to me, proves how well thought through this design is. It immediately became a part of my life. This is a watch you can take on the road with you for three or four weeks at a time, and there is zero burn out.
You say that now, 36 hours in, but you think that will be true after six months?
That takes us back to what I said first â there is the watch, and then there is owning the watch now. To me, and to an existing Daytona owner, this is like a software update to your iPhone. Every time you download a new update you’re not having a new experience with your iPhone, you’re having a new experience with whatever is updated and new, and so I think that’s the difference here. We are experiencing the bezel, and the black sub-dial rings. After that, it’s the same watch we’ve owned.
That’s exactly it. But this is that iOS update where Apple added cut and paste to the iPhone. It’s the update that makes us forget there was anything that came before. In the last article I wrote about the new Daytona, I said there really isn’t anything to get super excited about. On paper, you just said it, it’s a bezel and slight dial tweak. But in the metal, it feels like much more. This is what we’ve been waiting for for years! This watch should’ve been out years ago, we all know that. And we all know that Rolex could have done it years ago too. Finally, after what felt like three to five years of Rolex just playing with us on some level, they finally decided to give us what we all wanted, and now we’re all reveling in it.
[in 2011], to the platinum in the year it should have been done, to the steel this year in 2016? The first Daytona with a ceramic bezel came out half a decade ago! In some ways, the rollout of this watch was as beautiful as the watch itself. And though it killed me, you, and thousands of others waiting for this, you had to tip your hat at Rolex and say “well done,” because only Rolex could do this that way.
Right, and it speaks to the power of Rolex and this watch in particular. This is not a hyper-expensive watch relative to what some collectors are used to, but this is THE watch, at any price point, all over the world, to own right now. I’ve never seen anything like it.
This is the trophy watch of the year. And I’m not sure most years even have trophy watches. There is a good chance this watch will still be the trophy watch of next year too. This is the new flagship watch for Rolex and it’s not even close to being the most expensive model in the Rolex lineup.
Yup, it’s the flagship â and this is what’s so charming about Rolex â is that you can get a platinum Day Day, for what, $80,000 plus, but THIS is the watch to have. And the people that usually buy the platinum or the rose gold, they don’t care about that, for at least the next two years or until they get one.
This watch is the most Rolex watch that Rolex has put out in 20 years, and with that, we’d be remiss to not talk about what this will do on the secondary market. What do you think this watch is worth, on the street, right now?
Off the top of my head, $20K. What’s funny is I picked up the watch Thursday morning after a few days out in California, took it to the office, and immediately received an offer for double what I paid. Is it worth that? I dunno, but I could see it up there for sure.
If a green glass Milguass hit $20K back in the day, and it was selling for what â $6,000 or $7,000 â is the sky the limit here?
Someone told me there is a guy on a forum offering one at $22,000 right now, but I actually think the number will increase with time. Right now, there are so few watches out there, and those that have them seem to be very serious collectors, the types that don’t really look to flip no matter what, so the opportunity to buy above retail isn’t real yet. Once more watches hit â the second and third waves â and the watches get into the hands of other people, I fully expect to see them offered at CRAZY prices.
I think it’s $30K. You kinda can’t put a price on owning this watch â it’s such a visceral thing. I think people will pay $30,000 for the bragging rights! And social media plays a big part in the story of this watch. Hell you and I were talking about how we’d get this watch up â we’re as guilty as anybody.
It’s just fun, and we’re only human of course.
You know what, we just love this game. But, if you couldn’t have had it this week from a dealer, how much would you be willing to pay to get one right now?
For this watch? I don’t care how long it would take â I’d want it directly from an AD, with my name on the papers. This one matters to me, even though I’ve owned earlier, more “special” Daytonas. So I don’t think there is a price, honestly.
Here’s an interesting thought â I kind of wish this were my first Daytona. It’s so good, and so right, I’d be sleeping with it, showering with it on. We all remember our first Rolex, and just imagine if THIS were your first? Watches this good, even Rolexes this good, do not come along often.
Oh man, completely. This is really the culmination of so many previous Daytonas, and it’s right up there with some of the best of ’em. It’s amazing to see how we, and even Rolex themselves, treat the Daytona as a sacred object â almost a brand unto itself â managing it even more expertly than the rest of the brand. Thus, we see the trickling out of watches which began just this week.
It’s amazing to see how we, and even Rolex themselves, treat the Daytona as a sacred object â almost a brand unto itself â managing it even more expertly than the rest of the brand.
It’s like the slowest feature creep towards evolution in history, but that’s because it doesn’t have to be any better. They do treat the Daytona differently â look at the new Sub, the new GMT, they have these broad shoulders that make them feel so new. I think this watch has the exact same dimensions as the Zeniths!
Oh definitely. It’s as if touching the case of the Daytona is sacrilege, and you’re totally right â it’s the the same as it was when they launched the very first self-winding watches in the late ’80s. That’s amazing. The case of the Daytona is such a big part of what makes them special â the proportions of the vintage and the modern pieces are just perfect.
And look at the bezel. In ceramic, for the first time since the 6263, you really notice it’s there, with a tachymeter and everything! It feels like a technical instrument again â like a slide-rule or something. It was never this verbose on the steel bezel. It’s really back to being a tool watch.
Me? Never. But that’s me â and I get dressed up so infrequently that when I do, I want to do it right with a real dress watch â a gold Patek or something. That’s not to say I don’t think you could get away with it here â but it’s not for me. Though I guarantee you, you will see these everywhere in the board rooms of banks and law firms, very soon.
Such a great point. To a lot of guys, nothing is going to make them not wear this watch. It’s not coming off the wrist â if you get a new Daytona and you work at Goldman or Morgan Stanley or something, you’re wearing it. It’s a point of honor. Which bring us to the next point â what are you going to think of this watch in six months, a year? And a follow up â if you were to engrave the back, what would you engrave?
To a lot of guys, nothing is going to make them not wear this watch. It’s a point of honor.
I think I’ll still love it. This is the watch I’ve been waiting for for years, and I really mean that. I said when I wrote the Inside Rolex story that I wanted an modern Rolex to buy, wear, and keep the rest of my life, and this is it. It’s definitely a fun footnote that I got the watch early, but that’s all that it is. It stands on its own.
You know, I don’t often buy modern watches, so I do try to tie them to something going on my life. But this one, I think it’s a just-the-initials watch. I really think this one is going to be part of the foundation of my collection potentially for the rest of my life. What about you?
I’d engrave “FIRST” with an exclamation point. Kidding. I think it’s totally a “JCM” and the year type of watch. It’s the perfect pair of Levi’s â so neutral, and goes with everything. It’s going to live on my wrist for a really long time. It’s so rare that you add a watch to the base of a collection and you can feel it right away. When you add something to the very top of the collection, it’s a big deal. But this one is instantly there, right at the core of the collection. It’s so good it’s like I’m not even wearing a watch. Better, it’s like a fan’s digital rendering brought to life!
I almost wish this were my first Daytona, because I feel like it would just open up the door to a whole new world to me. It’s such a gateway watch.
I know! There are so many people that don’t really “get” the Daytona and could never think of spending the money for a 6263 or anything vintage, but I guarantee you once people experience this, they’ll see it. They’ll find a way to go deeper into Daytonas because of this watch.
Yup, this watch won’t be any more impactful than on a first time Daytona owner. And it’ll do it by being just plain, and simple, and awesome. This is the watch that will breed a new generation of vintage Daytona collectors, and that makes us all smile.
Based on what we’ve learned this week, deliveries have begun in very limited numbers and in very limited markets. Neither Rolex, nor their dealers, are able to provide an accurate idea on when the next shipment will be received or how many watches will be delivered. As always, the best way to get one of the new Rolex Daytonas is to call your local authorized dealer and put your name on the list, just like we did. Read more about the new Daytona here.

As an extension of PFC’s acclaimed TFIC series spanning over a decade, this 4-day course aims to provide students with the skills needed to safely design, instruct, and implement practical reality-based training. All instruction involves the proper use and application of Non-Lethal Training Ammunition (NLTA) with common Force-on-Force training systems such as UTM or Sims FX.
TFIC-ST is designed specifically for the instructor tasked with delivering Force-on-Force training modules or other Simulation Training Exercises. The use of NLTA is valuable for firearms instructors looking to provide stress-based training that prepares students to prevail in combative encounters. Through the application of different exercise models, use of NLTA exposes students to fluid, reality-based simulations that are dynamic and intense, but safe. Due to the nature and practicality of NLTA, quality training can be conducted anywhere despite venue limitations, live fire range restrictions, or poor weather conditions.
Whatever your mission or tactics, this material and instructor development will improve your simulation training program. Certification is achieved through comprehensive testing and evaluation of instructor knowledge, skills, and abilities. Unlike other train-the-trainer courses, this certification is not rubber-stamped. Graduates must earn their certificate through testing methods that measure and demonstrate instructor capability. Administrators and end users can have the confidence in knowing that their trainers who’ve completed this program possess the credentials to deliver professional, safe, and effective reality-based training.
TFIC Simulation Training Instructor Certification is valid for 3 years.
Enrollment: Open to Department of Defense, law enforcement, government agencies, eligible government contractors, and approved security personnel.
* Mobile training programs are available with a minimum of 12 students and agencies may earn free course slots for hosting. Contact PFC to learn more about host requirements.
PFC's CPIC is a complete 4-day pistol instructor program designed to impart the fundamentals of teaching handgun skills and managing pistol training for armed professionals. CPIC standards exceed every state, military, federal or commercial firearms certification process currently in existence. Students must successfully pass 6 examinations scoring no lower than 100% on 1 and no lower than 90% on the remaining 5. Training includes safety, instructor development, risk analysis, remediation, development of live fire evolutions, as well as progressive operation of the semi-automatic handgun weapon system. Evaluations consist of a comprehensive written exam, dry fire Limited Scope Performance Test (LSPT), Live Fire Skills Test (LFST), classroom presentation, student-led live fire evolution, and construction of a hazard-mitigating Risk Analysis Tool. Graduates will be able to safely instruct students in combative handgun fundamentals as well as develop and run essential live fire evolutions or qualification courses. Due to the proprietary information taught in this program, CPIC applicants are screened on a case-by-case basis. Graduates of this instructor program will be provided with a detailed manual and training curriculum authorized for use within their own organization, department or unit. NOTE: CPIC is not a "how to shoot" course, and as such, students who lack shooting skills upon arrival stand a very low chance of successfully completing the Live Fire Skills Test, which will only be administered a limited number of times. Registered applicants may request a copy of this skills test for practice prior to the course.
PFC's Combative Rifle Instructor Certification is a challenging program designed specifically for those already working as firearms instructors. The overwhelming majority of rifle-based programs focus solely on baseline operation of the system while CRIC instructs trainers how to mold armed professionals capable of defending the citizenry, themselves and partners with speed and precision. CRIC features training on instructor development/information delivery systems, carbine deployment case studies, dynamic weapons system operation, practical maintenance and zeroing protocols, combative manipulation, bilateral & wounded operation, extreme close quarters deployment, and qualification course development. Graduates must pass five examinations to include a dry Limited Scope Performance Test, written examination, risk analysis/safety study, assistant instructor evaluation, and lead instructor live-fire range practical. The curriculum presented in this course and the graduation standards required exceed any federal, DoD, state, local, or commercial firearms instructor program in the country.
PFC's PFIC is a 5-day course designed to impart the core doctrine of fundamental handgun, shotgun and rifle instruction to already proficient officers currently tasked with training others. PFIC exemplifies the core of evolutionary PFC doctrine with a curriculum that requires more than any other state, local, military or federal firearms certification. Students must successfully pass 6 examinations scoring no lower than 100% on 1 and no lower than 90% on the remaining 5. Topics covered include firearms safety, instructor development, risk analysis, remediation, development of live fire evolutions, as well as progressive operation of the handgun, carbine and shotgun weapon systems under frictional conditions. Testing and evaluations consist of a comprehensive written exam, dry Limited Scope Performance Test (LSPT), Live Fire Skills Test (LFST), Firearms Competency Protocols, classroom presentation, student-led live fire evolution, and construction of a hazard-mitigating Risk Analysis Tool. Graduates will be able to safely instruct students in law enforcement firearms fundamentals as well as develop and run essential live fire evolutions. NOTE: PFIC is not a "how to shoot" course, and as such, students who lack solid skills upon arrival stand a very low chance of successfully passing the Live Fire Skills Test, which will only be administered a maximum of four times. This training, as well as other PFC programs, has been directly credited with saving lives and ending confrontations in compressed timeframes with the minimal amount of force necessary.
Despite the overwhelming number of undercover, low-profile, and off-duty deployments of firearms that officers or security professionals experience, most are wholly unprepared to make the safe transition from the duty-belt system to weapons carry that may include, suits, jeans or plainclothes attire. The stakes involved in concealed presentation are also higher as suspects may consider the good guys to be another criminal/competitor and worthy of resistance. PFC’s Low-profile/Undercover Firearms Instructor Certification course aims to enhance agency capability, officer safety, and mitigate risk through imparting the techniques, tactics and procedures that will allow personnel to dominate encounters with the same level of confidence as if overtly uniformed. This program is expressly designed for those individuals who are already firearms instructors. Over four days, candidates will be exposed to, as well as tested on, advanced level instructor development models (shown to deliver pertinent information faster with a higher level of recall under duress), methods of handgun concealment & presentation, low-visibility carbine deployment, vehicular tactics, low-light operations, tactical trauma care from plainclothes equipment, team tactics, and student-led instructional delivery. This program is a must for any trainers tasked with imparting firearms skills to personnel working in an undercover or non-uniform capacity.
The Active Violence Responder Instructor Development Course represents a bold step in the necessary evolution of officer response to the active shooter or attacker. Historical and recent events have shown us variance in numbers, execution, techniques and tactics of the aggressor(s). We must remain vigilant and flexible to an unknown and unknowable combination of circumstances unfolding on an accelerated timeline. Through this course, officers will be introduced to the most progressive instructor development techniques for learning and teaching active violence response concepts, case studies, critical incident management, solo & team tactical firearms training, structure clearing, overland/exposed space operations, tactical trauma care, and indomitable mindset. Students will be evaluated through both written and performance-based evaluations designed to measure knowledge, skills and abilities as an instructor. Successful graduates will be better prepared to enhance their own student’s capabilities and survivability upon completion. First responders in any organization, public or private, must be competent in these areas for managing and resolving the trend of active violence incidents.

Yikes, that is a weird episode title. However, the episode freaking rocked, so let’s talk about it!
Michone and Rick are trying to mourn Carl in peace when a whole mess of walkers rudely interrupt. Michonne uses the heavy front gate to peel the face off of one. Yes, that’s right. The face easily tears away from the bone. Like a grape. The pair manage to save the town square gazebo from fire before escaping. I take this as a sign of hope that our heroes will one day return to Alexandria and rebuild, just like Carl would have wanted.
TRASH PEOPLE! Damn, everyone wants Jadis and her crew of garbage folk on their side. We see Simon and Negan in a heated agreement about how to handle them. Negan sees them as a useful resource, while his right-hand general wants to blow them away. Oh, the seeds of discord are being sewn! The two receive Maggie’s “gift," one of their own in a pine box. She’s got more, and she will kill them if need be.
Simon is supposed to go and get the Trash People back on board. Jadis claims they never sided with Rick. In fact, they delivered him to The Saviors and got shot at for their trouble! Simon goes off script and kills both of Jadis’ loyal generals! The nerve! These people are her family! Her tribe! She punches him and he orders his men to open fire. Once they get back to The Sanctuary, Simon lies to Negan and says the plan went fine. Liar, liar, pants on fire.
Michonne and Rick go to the Dump and find a tearful Jadis surrounded by her former friends, now walkers. She gives hints to her life as an artist before all this. And how making her tribe and their unique culture was the ultimate art piece. Despite her pleas, Rick leaves without her. Jadis is left no choice but to lure her former family members into a trash shredder-thingy. Like a meat grinder, her people come out the other end a sloppy pile of bloody pulp. Now, you all know I love Jadis. Silly Rick, you will regret scorning this woman.
Michonne points out that abandoning Jadis is exactly what the late Carl would NOT have wanted. Her man can sure be dense sometimes. Rick reads his and Negan’s letters from his son, and decides to Call Negan up on the radio. We all know that Negan actually really liked Carl, and has a soft spot for kids. Once the Big Bad Wolf gets word from Rick of the boy’s death, he CRIES. NEGAN CRIES. He tells him how he had big plans for that boy, he was the future! And Rick got him killed and will ruin everyone’s lives. And that all this fighting and death is Rick’s own fault. Rick tells Negan about the letter, and how his child pleaded for peace, but that Negan will not find it. Amazingly, Negan still insists that he could have saved everyone. The man really drinks his own Kool Aid and believes that he is HELPING people by ruling over them.
How do you combat someone SO DESPERATELY convinced that they’re doing the righteous thing?
In other news, Enid and Aaron are at the mercy of Cindy and her women-warriors. Despite Enid basically being forced to kill Cindy’s grandma (and former leader) before the mid-season break, Cindy spares their lives. She and her ladies will not aide in the cause to take down The Saviors. Enid is supposed to go home and tell Maggie the situation while Aaron waits on the edge of the women’s village. He is determined to get their help. He’s right. These gals are fierce, and we need them!

How Far Was Traditional Support for ‘Monarchy, Church and Aristocracy’ the Most Important Element in Disraelian Conservatism?
925 words - 4 pages that would best secure their welfare. Disraeli argued that it was the peoples natural leaders among the territorial aristocracy and gentry, informed by a sense of mutual social obligation, who alone could guarantee their protection. In my opinion the most important factor was one nation conservatism. Which was based on support for the monarch and the church of England and the aristocracy. All of which helped to ensure stability and security at home. Therefore, reaching the aims of Disraelian Conservatism.

This week, I was lucky enough to be invited to the inaugural sailing and naming of Celebrity's newest ship, The Edge. There has been so much hype about this ship because it is so different than your traditional cruise ship. To say it has been amazing is an understatement- I'll share more about my trip later! The warm weather has been very welcome and although it takes me out of the Christmas-feeling a bit, I'm ok with that for a few days!
Wearing: I finally got this Straw Bag I have been wanting for a while now. It's pricey- especially just for a straw bag, but it's just so gorgeous and it fits so much. I can fit my big DSLR camera and everything else in nicely! It will be a great beach/pool tote, too!
Drinking: The bartender at the Polo Bar this past weekend served us tequila shots and he served them with cinnamon over an orange wedge and it was SO good. It truly made such a difference and really brought out the sweetness in a tequila. I loved it and will now be doing this instead of lime and salt. Gamechanger.
Reading: Loved this Southern Living article that talks about the nostalgic Christmas trees! Did you grow up with one in your home? My mom puts hers out every single year and I love it. She made hers in a ceramics class that she took with my aunts when she was in her 20's which makes it even more special! It's kitschy and not really something I would typically like, but having grown up with it, it's something I just love! Target is selling one somewhat similarly, but I would love to find somewhere where I could create my own like my mom did!
Sale-ing: One of my favorite cashmere cardigans is on sale! I've had a few for years and always get so much wear out of them. They're just a great, luxe basic!
Watching: Did you guys hear the Friends rumor that it would be leaving Netflix on January 1st? Thankfully, it was just a rumor so let's keep our fingers crossed it continues to stay on Netflix! It is one of my favorite go-to shows!
Loving: This sweater is just gorgeous. Would look great casually with boyfriend jeans or dark wash skinnies but you could also dress it up with leather leggings and heels. I am usually a neutral gal, but dare I say, the yellow is quite beautiful!
Wanting: There hasn't been too much on my radar this week since I have been away from the computer a lot but here are a few great items!
Pittsburgh-ing: Did you know that there are five Christmas pop-up bars in Pittsburgh? I think Jingle bar might be my favorite!
Traveling: I'm currently in Florida soaking up the sun! Follow along on instagram for more!
Quoting: 'What makes you happy doesn't need approval from anyone else.' // See more of my favorites, here.
For the nostalgic trees, we have one my grandmother made that always is put on the table in the hall between all the bedrooms at my parents' home. I love history it brings into the family decor even if it is not in the main space.

BRIDGEPORT, CT – Mayor Joe Ganim and the City of Bridgeport today launched Public Safety Software “NexGen” to ensure proper information sharing from dispatch to all first responder agencies that will allow situational awareness that will improve efficiency, effectiveness and public safety.
The new strategy will enable a seamless collaboration between the City’s Emergency Communications Center (911), the First Responder agencies and our Emergency Operations with providing cutting edge technologies of NexGen and PowerPhone applications to improve emergency response capabilities and integrated information sharing amongst all partnering agencies with the ease of a digital tablet at their vehicle console and display at first responder headquarters.
Before NexGen, a Police dispatcher would type notes about a call in their own individual system. But only the responding Police officer would have access to the notes; the responding Fire unit did not. The NexGen system shows all responders any notes and updates regardless of the agency.
Both companies are locally-based in Connecticut. The NexGen Company operates out of East Haven and PowerPhone is a Madison-based company.

My puppy labrador was recently diagnosed with Kennel cough and now has swollen eyes and nose. What's the prob?
He was given some medication and was being treated for kennel cough. 3 days later, he now has swollen eyes and nose. I can’t find any information as to what would be the cause. Kennel cough and the swelling apparently have nothing to do with each other.
How long has he or she been taking the medication? It sounds like the pup might be allergic to it. If I were you, I would call the vet and see if the vet ca prescribe something else.
Good luck. I hope your baby feel better soon.
If he was diagnosed then he should be being treated for it.
Kennel cough is an upper respiratory disease which affects the eyes and nose.This can last anywhere from a few days to several weeks, and it has to run it’s course just like the flu although medications are prescribed they don’t attack the disease itself. This is an airborne virus, so make sure your dog is vaccinated, listen and watch for any signs of sickness in the future.
Your dog is probably having an allergic reaction to his antibiotics. You are correct- Kennel cough does not cause any facial swelling. I would contact your vet right away to get a change of meds. He may also need a shot of steroids to counteract the allergic reaction. If you have him on a cough suppressant dont do this, it will make him too sleepy- but you can give him benedryl- the dosage for a dog is 25mg per pound of body weight. If your dog is 25lbs he can have one adult capsule, 50lbs 2 capsules. If he is less than 25 use the liquid benedryl- 1 teaspoon is 12.5mg. But get into contact with your vet first thing in the morning- Dont give him any more of the meds until then. Hope he is feeling better soon!

The 2017 Commemorative Service to remember the courage and sacrifice of Australians and our Allies who fought against the Japanese in SE Asia and the Pacific Areas duirng World War II was held at the Australian War Memorial on 6 September.
On 7-8 December 1941 the Japanese entered World War 2 by attacking American, British Commonwealth and Dutch Forces in South East Asia and the South West Pacific. Most of Australia's armed forces were away fighting in Europe and North Africa. By January Malaya had fallen.
The Japanese overwhelmed the Allied forces, capturing Rabaul, which was then Australian territory, on 23 January and Singapore on 15 February 1942. During the Japanese invasion of the island chain from Singapore across the north of Australia, the cruiser HMAS Perth was sunk (1 March) in the Battle of Sunda Strait, HMAS Yarra was sunk (4 March) defending a convoy south of Java and HMAS Vampire was sunk (9 April) in the Bay of Bengal. Army and RAAF forces defending Ambon and Timor were lost. Overall, there were heavy casualties, the entire 8th Division and many RAAF aircraft were lost and over 15,000 Australians became prisoners of war.
Using Rabaul as their main base, in May 1942 the Japanese sought to threaten and isolate Australia by attempting a direct sea-borne landing at Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea. They were turned back by a combined Australian and American naval force in the Battle of the Coral Sea. This battle was the first naval engagement in history where the opposing fleets, using carrier borne aircraft, were never in direct sight of each other.
In their next attempt to capture Port Moresby, the Japanese made a sea-borne landing at Milne Bay on the eastern tip of Papua New Guinea in August 1942. In a fortnight's hard fighting, the defending Australian troops, supported by RAAF fighters and American forces, inflicted the war's first land defeat on the Japanese. During this and other campaigns, the Australians were supplied by ships of the Merchant Marine of several nations, the Dutch providing the largest number.
To assist their move against Port Moresby, the Japanese landed troops on the northern coast of Papua New Guinea and advanced over the Owen Stanley Range along the Kokoda Trail. After eight weeks of fighting (July-August 1942), with heavy casualties on both sides, the Japanese attempt was stopped by the Australians a mere 25 kilometers from Port Moresby. Over the next 18 weeks (to January 1943) the Australians began to drive the Japanese back over the Owen Stanley Range and, in conjunction with increasing American forces, to expel the enemy from their beachheads at Gona and Buna on the north coast of Papua. Throughout the battle over the Owen Stanley Range, the support of Papua New Guinea porters and stretcher-bearers, affectionately known as 'Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels', was invaluable.
Meanwhile, in the Solomon Islands to the east of Papua New Guinea, Australian and American ships and aircraft were engaged trying to prevent the Japanese establishing a base on Guadalcanal. Many ships, including the Australian heavy cruiser HMAS Canberra (9 August 1942), were sunk in the fierce sea battles off Savo Island and Guadalcanal. American, New Zealand and Fijian forces cleared the enemy from Guadalcanal and surrounding islands.
During this period Australia's northern towns, including Broome, Darwin and Wyndham, endured enemy air attacks. Darwin was the main target, suffering repeated bombing attacks from 19 February 1942 to 12 November 1943. The city was defended by Australian, American and British fighter aircraft as well as by Australian anti-aircraft gunners and a flotilla of corvettes, one of which, HMAS Armidale, was sunk by Japanese aircraft in the Timor Sea. Australian, American and Dutch aircraft, flying from Australian bases, mounted counter strikes against the Japanese. Other attacks by Japanese aircraft and submarines were made on Sydney and Newcastle. Many merchant ships were torpedoed along the east coast of Australia.
By the end of 1942, the Japanese advance had been checked. The direct threat to Australia was over. But hard fighting followed for nearly three more years, in New Guinea, the Northern Solomons, the Pacific islands and the East Indies (now Indonesia), before major coordinated Allied advances toward Japan culminated in the Japanese surrender on 15 August 1945.

From birth to old age, cranial osteopathy has worked wonders for everyone. It has the power to heal many ailments and it also keeps the body fit and healthy. Let us take a closer look at how it works.
Osteopathy is a treatment that works on strengthening the body structure and the overall internal functioning of the organs. The habit of living a sedentary and yet a stressful lifestyle has led to improper health. The work tension and pressure of always performing better, make us ignore the way of living a healthy life. When these pressures begin to build up, the muscles and the tissues begin to contract and cause pain and discomfort. If these minor unhealthy signs are ignored, it results into bigger health problems. People of all age groups are suffering from some sort of daily tension and pressure. Therefore, this therapy helps reduce the stress and tension levels. This treatment is gentle and harmless to the body and focuses on the overall functioning of the body. Brush through this article to know more about working of this therapy.
This treatment was introduced by William Garner Sutherland in the year 1930. His curiosity in the skull bones and its structure led him to develop this therapy. The tissues in the body rhythmically change shape which is termed as cranial rhythm or involuntary movement. The cranial rhythm often gets disturbed by the level of stress and tensions that an individual suffers from in his daily life. These pressures restrict the movement of tissues and contracts them. In the beginning, the effects of stress might be very minor but as it accumulates in the body, it begins to show symptoms, such as backaches, headaches or neck pain.
It is used for the purpose for curing ailments such as jaw pain, cranium pain, to release the tension build around the spine, joint pain, facial pain and even help in reducing any kind of trauma or accidents. Cranial osteopaths take many years to master the skill of recognizing these mild rhythms created by the movement of tissues and spinal fluid. These osteopaths use many techniques to reduce the body strain that is formed in joints or muscles. These ailments occur mainly due to less body flexibility and poor posture. Therefore, osteopaths focus on improving the posture as well as enhance the flexibility. Proper functioning of muscles and joints reduce a lot health risks and keep the body free from stiffness and rigidity. This treatment not only improves the posture but also strengthens the digestive system and improves the immunity of the body.
In order to cure the patient from the stress, it is essential for the osteopaths to understand and asses their lifestyle. Doctors of osteopathy also have to thoroughly study the medical history of the patient to use appropriate techniques to cure their medical condition. The neck, joints, and spine are well examined to exactly locate the problem area. Inflammation, pressure on joints, or even misalignment in them can cause strain. To release such pressure, the patient undergoes muscle stretching, massage or joint articulation. This gentle pressure and the stretches loosen the muscles and increase the blood flow in the body. It removes all the blockages and misalignment of joints and even takes away the stiffness. If a patient is suffering from prolonged pain, several sessions can help him overcome the build up of stress.
It can be of great help in case the patient is suffering from asthma, insomnia, stiff shoulders or neck, slipped discs, joint pains, improper posture and many more such health ailments.
It is among the well recognized therapies that many doctors are experimenting with on their patients. This treatment has also shown positive results and is being adopted by many hospitals and clinics. Make sure to consult your doctor and find out whether it is the right therapy for you.

Not that long ago I read Bernie Lubbers' book Bourbon Whiskey - Our Native Spirit. In the book he wrote fondly of bonded bourbon whiskey. For those unfamiliar with the term bonded whiskey, also labeled as bottled in bond, refers to whiskey that has been: aged for at least 4 years, bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% alcohol), the product of one single distillery, and the product of one distilling season. To be honest, before reading his book, I hadn't thought much of bonded whiskeys. Most of what I saw seemed to occupy the bottom shelf in the liquor store or back bar of my local watering holes so I assumed they weren't as good as the whiskeys higher up on the shelf. But, as I discovered in my blind tasting of inexpensive whiskies, price and enjoyment are not always correlated.
Inspired by Bernie's passion for bottled in bond whiskeys I've decided to search them out and allow myself to have an open mind. According to Bernie's website there are now 17 commercially available bonded whiskeys, up from 13 just three years ago, and two others only available at the Jim Beam Visitor Center and the Heaven Hill Bourbon Heritage Center.

Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon, distilled by Sazerac Co. at Buffalo Trace Distillery and bottled at 46.5% ABV.
As the story goes, Elmer T. Lee, Master Distiller at Buffalo Trace decided to create a new and innovative bottling for bourbon lovers by producing the world's first single barrel bourbon. Since 1984, the concept of single barrel spirits has been copied throughout the spirits industry and in part helped birth the "small batch" category which has dominated the growth and sales of premium spirits for the last 20 years.
The bourbon is named after Colonel Albert B. Blanton who began working at what today is the Buffalo Trace Distillery in 1897 when he was 16 years old. Blanton worked his way up the company ladder from an office boy to president of the distillery. During National Prohibition, the government gave Blanton permission to continue making whiskey for "medicinal" purposes which makes it one of oldest continuously operating distilleries in the United States.
Nose: The nose is light and fruity, reminiscent of candied apple and ripe pear. Underlying these bright top notes are deeper aromas of oak and yeasty bread.
Palate: Neat, Blanton's is very hot and screams for a dash of water. Once my tongue recovered a bit from the impact of the alcohol, the bourbon has a medium body with light sweetness, hints of vanilla and bright lemon zest.
Finish: The finish is incredibly long with that is semi-dry from the wood tannins. The flavor on the finish shows notes of coffee and an herbaceousness reminiscent of rosemary.
With Water: The sharp heat mellows with the addition of water and the initial sweetness on the tongue intensifies and then transitions to baking spices. The finish is both herbal and sweet not unlike a cough lozenge.
Conclusion: Blanton's is a fine bourbon though not completely my cup of tea. For fan's of Buffalo Trace, it is definitely worth trying but I felt the balance was off. The heat from the alcohol overshadows most of the flavors and the combination of sweet and herbal flavors are not what I usually look for in a bourbon. I imagine that Blanton's would work well in cocktails that call for sweet vermouth or for those who like to drink their bourbon on the rocks.
Thank you to Rachel for the sample.

Conversations at our house these days involve lots of ‘why’ and ‘where’ and ‘I want.’ Where did Daddy go? Where is the puppie? Where is my cookie? Where is the car? Where is the paper? I want a bath. I want a bath with bubbles. I want a cookie. I want juice. Then, when you answer any of these statements, you just get ‘why?’ And, then the questioning starts all over again. Miss H has turned into quite the chatterbox and sometimes it can be pretty funny.
Besides being a chatterbox, she is very into her art. For those of you who have seen Miss H in action, you know she rarely stops moving but some paper and markers will keep her attention for a long time.
She loves to draw and play with the different colors but goes through lots and lots of paper. We are now big fans of the Crayola markers that only leave marks on the special paper (and not on Miss H, the walls, the windows and the furniture).
We got to spend Saturday evening catching up with Kerry’s cousin at the Light Horse in Old Town. The food was great and it was even better to spend time with his cousin and her boyfriend. It was nice to hear the funny stories from their childhood and we lingered for over three hours. Kerry and I laughed that we had not stayed up past midnight in a long, long time. Seriously, it was probably pre-Miss H days.
Mom was nice to come spend the evening babysitting so we could enjoy dinner! On Sunday, we both chased Miss H around the playground and tried to get some pictures but we both just got some blurred action shots. I guess they will have to wait until next time.

Nurses are endlessly busy and undoubtedly could benefit from handy tools to help patient interactions and behind-the-scenes work flow smoother. Luckily, there are some great iPhone applications available to give them the relief they need! Let’s take a look at 10 of the most amazing apps available for nurses.
The Nursing Central iPhone app is a comprehensive field guide for nurses, offering an abundance of information, including a drug guide, a diseases and disorders reference, and a lab and diagnostic reference. A copy of Taber’s Medical Dictionary is also readily available.
A.D.A.M. (which stands for Animated Dissection of Anatomy for Medicine) offers a symptom navigator iPhone app that allows nurses to quickly check through a list of symptoms to determine what ailments may be afflicting a patient.
The symptom navigator not only gives tips on what issues a patient may have, but also offers tips on what to do about symptoms, as well as whether a patient can engage in self-care, needs to see a doctor or may need to visit an emergency room.
The Bio Dictionary iPhone app offered by the University of Nottingham gives nurses definitions to unfamiliar biological terms. It allows nurses to search for these terms two different ways. And if you don’t have time to sit and read through all of the definitions, you could take advantage of the audible function that allows you to listen to an explanation of the terms from the medical database.
