They should not and don't have to have a look at this Paulie.
This is just an easy (and good) patch for a design flaw, but not a fix!
Since 6 years this flaw is history. Circuitry had been changed to a proper voltage regulator.
That seems to be a relatively common fault in "the earlier versions of" this series of amps. Looks like it was a good fix for those amps.
Redo? You're assuming that the outcome is actually going to be a WT-style amp and not something entirely new and "Marshall-like".
It WAS a common fault!
What are those bad vibes all about?
I have no idea about how good "Marshall like" is.
I meant that I'm hoping that Eden retains its separate identity and continues as an identifiable, high quality brand, and does not slowly evolve in to a bass version of the corporate Marshal stack.
I don't see anything like that coming.
We didn't see any funny things since the Marshall ownership!
And we got some time with them already.
The only things that changed are a better distribution and a much better CS.

RX100 Hero Turning Villain For Nani?
For his grey-shaded performance in his super hit film “RX100”, young hero Karthikeya Reddy won immense attention and fame too. And now, he’s busy with movies like Hippy and others in his kitty. But here comes a twist.
Apparently, director Vikram K Kumar of Manam fame is looking forward to a handsome looking villain for his next featuring Nani in the lead. And when they knocked the doors of young hero Karthikeya, we hear that the response they got is epic.
With excitement and thrill, Karthikey is said to have got agreed to do the role, but currently, the whole details regarding this are kept under the wraps. Actually, the makers want to keep this as a surprise until the trailer of the film hits the marquee.
However, we have to see how far the RX100 guy will match to that of Nani in terms of performance to make sure that he stands out as a villain.

The Shifting Sands of SaaS Relationships. Here’s How to Handle It.
I know why Steve Jobs was so very, very mad at Google and Eric Schmidt. Why he pledged to go “thermonuclear”. Why he vowed to spend up to $100 billion dollars (Apple’s cash) to “bury Google”. It couldn’t have been about Android per se. Google bought Android (the company) in 2005, a “software system for cellphones”, years before the iPhone ever came out in 2007. Jobs knew about Android.
You know what it was? Schmidt didn’t call.
Schmidt sat on the Apple board, watching the iPhone go from an idea to the center of Apple’s post-iPod strategy. And during that time, Android clearly became one of the top 1-2 strategic initiatives at Google.
Friends become competitors in tech. It’s just a fact, and one that stresses relationships and sometimes breaks ‘em. But everyone understands it happens.
And Schmitt should have called. By that, I mean he should have told Jobs exactly what was coming 6-12 months earlier than whenever he did, and stepped off the Apple board that day. But he didn’t step off the Apple board until 2009. And most importantly, he simply didn’t call early enough. I don’t know this to be a fact. But I know it to be a universal truth.
And one thing I can guarantee you in SaaS. This will happen to you, too. I guarantee it.
Your larger partners will notice your success, and compete with you, directly or indirectly.
Your exclusive relationships will become non-exclusive.
Your partners will partner with your competitors as they scale as well.
And in one way or another, you’ll either throw someone under a bus — or they’ll do the same to you.
It’s not fun, but it’s part and parcel of the world of competitive destruction we live in.
So what do you do? It’s simple: Call. Or better yet, get on a plane. As soon as you can.
It’s a natural tendency to hide or duck when these changes happen. Let your partner find out on their own 3-6 months down the road. Why call, if it’s just bad news? Let’s wait. Kick the can.
I noticed the NYT’s coverage of Windows 8 talked about the first call Ballmer made once they’d made the go decision on Surface. It was to Michael Dell. Ballmer then got on a plane, and intercepted Michael Dell in Chicago, on Dell’s way to Africa, to talk to him in person.
Was Dell the man and Dell the company mad? I have no doubt. Their most important business partner is now competing with them, at least in part. Not that cool.
But Ballmer handled it (near as I can tell) the exact right way, once the decision was made to compete in part. And the net result, is Michael Dell is giving tons of press to MSFT and professing full support of Surface. Certainly, he isn’t going thermonuclear.
Maybe it’s not apples-to-apples. But it’s close enough.
The thing is, in SaaS, things will probably change again over that 72-144 month journey. The guys that threw you under the bus, in another 24 months, may again become your most important partner or customer. Your partner’s attempt to compete with you? It probably will fail. They don’t know the space as well as you. It’s all a journey.
Treat people the way you’d like to be treated, as best you can given the circumstances, and it will reward you. Though that reward may take years.

As the new Ecclesiastical Sewing Website launch date approaches, I thought it would be nice to have a few feature posts to highlight some of the beautiful liturgical fabrics that will soon be available for sale. But the usual way of uploading photos in the blog posts does not seem to be the best way to show off these lovely church vestment fabrics. I admit that I am not very tech savvy, and so I’ve been trying to find a better way to upload a collection of photos for viewing. Of course many of you may be saying right about now, “Use a photo gallery…doesn’t she know that yet?……..” Well, now I do, and in time, I hope to continue to learn and be able to update the site more. So thank you for your patience in the process.
The subject for this photo gallery is the Liturgical Fabric Cloister. Cloister is a piece-dyed fabric which means the color is completed after the weaving is done. The fabric is originally woven as “grey” goods without the use of dye. Once the weaving is complete, the fabric is dyed to the desired colors. This method of manufacture is useful in that it allows for an affordable liturgical fabric at an introductory price point. The drawback with this method of manufacturing is that it limits the depth of color. It had vivid colors, but they often lack the richness of color found in more expensive church vestment fabrics.
Cloister is a reversible symbolic pattern which dates from around the year 1900. If one looks closely, it is easy to see the two main design features of the Scottish Thistle and English Rose which were popular at that time. Cloister is a lighter weight ecclesiastical fabric that would work well for making stoles, chasubles, tunics, dalmatics, chalice veils, and other vestment pieces. Cloister would work well with machine embroidery, when the proper stabilizers and backings are used.
In addition to the colors below, Cloister is available in Roman Purple, Violet, and white. Cloister is also frequently used in the making of University robes in the United Kingdom. The pattern repeat is small which makes Cloister a little easier to work with than some of the larger pattern repeats found in other ecclesiastical fabrics. Cloister is a fabric that has grown in my estimation over time. The design elements found in Cloister are steeped with hundreds of years of history. The English Rose was the emblem which played a prominent role in English History during the 30 years of the War of the Roses. While the English Rose history dates back many centuries, the Scottish Thistle has an even older history. The rose and the thistle also have a liturgical significance.
When one takes the time to really look at a liturgical fabric, one can see the thought and” care that was taken to include symbols and design elements that are filled with symbolic meaning in the history of the church. For those interested in learning more about Church Symbolism, I recommend Rev. F. R. Webber’s book Church Symbolism.
I hope you enjoy looking at a few of the liturgical colors available in the Cloister Pattern.
*Webber, F. R. (1938) Church Symbolism. Cleveland. J. H. Jansen, Publisher.
I was wondering if you’d found an American supplier for your brocades? I’m only familiar with an English company.
The liturgical brocades will all come from the United Kingdom. I have found an America Company that has a few nice brocade patterns and may add those to my line in time, but for now the brocades will come from England. The quality of the English brocades is very nice and they are lovely to work with. The thread count is very high so most work well with either hand or machine embroidery, like the brocades from ages past.
Yes, I will be selling fabric swatches, and would encourage everyone to use swatches to show their priests and others the colors and fabric options that are available. The swatches also are a good way to check the quality and “hand” of a fabric. I am working on swatches this weekend, as well as stole kits and will be sure to have updates when everything is ready.

Education is more than a pathway to a better job; it is a gateway to a more empowered life. Good universal education is essential to a democracy because it gives the tools to all citizens to think, and to act, with the power that is necessary for self-governance.
Without trained minds, we are less prepared for engaged citizenship. A more conscious sense of citizenship is imperative if we’re to right the ship of our democracy. Democracy bestows more than rights; it bestows responsibilities as well: the responsibility to understand what is happening to our country, to make carefully considered decisions regarding who we elect to represent us. Education gives us a greater ability to direct our own lives, and also to help direct the fate of our nation.
Education is a form of empowerment, while under-education is a form of lock-out.
Yet, millions of our children are just that: locked out. And the more locked out they are, the greater the chance that someday they will be locked up. Under-education is a form of oppression. The United States is the only country that funds our public education through property taxes, ensuring that children from poorer neighborhoods receive a poorer education, thus deepening the roots of wealth inequality.
Millions of American children go each day to schools that do not have functioning toilets, and which lack the minimum school supplies necessary to teach a child to read. A child who cannot read by the age of eight is less likely to graduate from high school, and more likely to one day be incarcerated. This is more than an “educational issue.” It is a humanitarian crisis. In the richest country in the world.
Even today, the children of America are treated more like the property of adults than as fully empowered United States citizens.
Millions of American children live with chronic emotional trauma, unable to achieve the highest possibilities of education, even when it is offered to them. That is why trauma-informed education and social wrap-around services are necessary, in addition to what we have normally associated with the most important aspects of a child’s education. Education in America should expand not only a student's intellectual horizons but also her cultural, emotional, psychological and spiritual ones. It is impossible to separate issues of economic despair from issues of domestic violence, from issues of childhood trauma, from issues of lower educational achievement. And America needs a president who understands that.
Universal quality education for all Americans, starting in pre-school and extending through college or technical school, should be available to all our citizens, in every neighborhood in America. Every child should have access to the most advanced arts education and the most incredible cultural opportunities, as well as the best intellectual preparedness of any nation in the world.
Why? Because America should belong to its people.
Our government’s servitude to short term profit maximization for multi-national corporations has squeezed the majority of resources of our public treasury into the hands of a very few, creating untold suffering among millions of Americans, particularly our children. Such is the opposite of effective long term economic planning. Our future gold, our future energy, our future success, lives in the kindergartens of America. The way to provide vibrancy in our country tomorrow – social, economic and political - is to honor our children today.
The high cost of higher education is putting college out of the reach for many students unless their parents are wealthy. The average graduate leaves school nearly $30,000 in debt, with student loans now totaling over $1.5 trillion. This creates a drag on our economy, as young graduates have to spend their money repaying loans instead of buying goods and creating businesses. How many American youths would love nothing more than to have $2,500 in discretionary spending that they could use to fund their own entrepreneurial enterprises? Instead of supporting them in doing that, we are raising a generation of indentured servants who will spend decades - if not a lifetime – paying off banks.
The way to create a successful economy is by unleashing the spirit of the American people, starting with those fresh out of school.
At the end of WW2, the GI Bill helped build America’s great middle class – the same middle class that has been decimated by corporate-driven economics over the last forty years. A GI Bill level of investment in educating America’s youth would help bring the Middle Class back.
Universal pre-school for all children.
Increased funding for free and reduced-price lunches, so that they cover breakfasts as well. It’s not only hard to learn when you’re hungry, but addressing hunger leads to addressing child poverty – another stain on our national character.
Federal compensation for state school funding, allowing equal access to quality education for every American child.
A far more expansive array of educational approaches, including social and emotional learning; the development of conflict resolution skills; restorative justice (schools who implement such programs have seen up to 65% reduction in violence and disorderly conduct); meditation and mindfulness; comparative religion (for the sake of spiritual enlightenment and to help ease religious strife); anti-bullying programs; and the fostering of other life skills to help prepare children for a meaningful life. We need a whole-person educational system that addresses the heart and soul as well as the intellect.
Reform the out of control testing – We need to reduce the amount of high-stakes testing required and the associated value added model that unfairly associates teacher and school performance with the results of those high-stakes tests.
Teacher training programs and teacher retention. We must invest in teacher education programs that provide best practices and developmentally appropriate models of education for our future teachers. Retaining these teachers in our classrooms requires giving them adequate preparation, support, leadership, and autonomy as well as compensation that reflects their professional stature. We also need to ensure that teachers face classrooms of a manageable size – and that means hiring more teachers overall. Student/Teacher ratios must shrink.
Better management of education infrastructure. Buildings and buses are some of the largest budget items for public schools. There is no reason for buses to sit in a lot in between running kids to and from school, given society’s need for public transportation. Multi-purpose use for buses would improve communities and drive down school costs. The same can be said for school facilities – there are other community services that can be provided in those locations, safely and effectively.
Free college or technical school tuition for every qualified student. If we cannot find ideal offsets for this expense, I’m open to exploring ways that students can repay some of these costs with a small payroll tax once they start working (based on Oregon’s efforts) or through reasonable amounts of public service.
Student loan amnesty. We need to explore student loan forgiveness and options to remove red tape and lockouts, and reduce on-time payments from 10 years to 5 years. We need to reduce the interest rate for repayment of loans to a nominal, if not zero, percentage rate. We need to eliminate the origination fee on federal student loans, and eliminate the annual caps on federally subsidized loans.
The most advanced matrix of technical schools in the world. Going to a liberal arts college is not the only option for higher education; we should create more opportunities for people who want to work in the trades or technical areas.
Low-cost education for those in middle and older age who have been dropped from our economy yet still retain, as all people do, the God-given potential to create meaning for themselves and others.
Part and parcel with these priorities is a need for safety.
Every child in America – and the parents who kiss them good-bye each morning -- lives with the fear, however deeply tucked into the recesses of his or her mind, that this might be a day when someone starts shooting a gun at school.
Once again, corporate short term profit maximization– in this case, of gun manufacturers – is placed before the health and well-being even of our most precious citizens, and this underlying amorality would be vigorously challenged by my administration.

Just took a “Trophy of a Lifetime” What’s Next?
You have just harvested a trophy of a lifetime maybe it will even make the Boone and Crocket or Pope and Young record books, now what? This experience may not be encountered again for many years for most hunters, so you need to be made aware of the questions a taxidermist will ask you and what you need to Mounted Whitetail Deerask them before contacting a taxidermist. You also know that you will have the animal mounted by a reputable taxidermist. Selecting a taxidermist can be almost as challenging as harvesting your new trophy.
What Room will Display the Mounted Animal?
Where are you going to hang your new trophy mount? The room in which the mount will hang is a contributing factor on the pose you will select for the mount. There are so many poses available! If your ceilings are around 8′ high or a basement den, the ceilings are not likely to be vaulted. How tall are the antlers? A full upright taxidermy pose might require the mount to hang low on the wall. There are three basic form poses – upright, semi-sneak, and full sneak. With an upright form, the neck is in a vertical position almost parallel to the wall. The semi sneak form has the neck and head down at approximate 40 degree angle off the wall. The full sneak pose has the neck at almost 85 degrees from the wall. For a low ceiling, a semi sneak or full sneak may be the better choice for your new trophy mount.
Time to Interview The Taxidermist!
Where can I see some of your work? You need to look at their work very close. Look at the eyes, is it a natural look or does it look like the animal is bug eyed? Feel the back of the head between the antlers and slide your hand down the back of the neck. Do you feel the Stitches they used to sew the hide together? Has the hide shrunk? You will not notice this with true tanned hides.
Found your Taxidermist ”Enjoy” your Trophy!
The return time of your trophy mount is not as important as the above questions if you feel you have found the right taxidermist to do the mount for you. It should still be around 1 year, but 1 1/2 years is not uncommon! The Last this is the cost of the mount. How much is it worth to you? If you think you have found the right person to mount the animal the actual cost should not impact your decision. After all you get what you pay for!!
Be Prepared buy a Quality Knife!
Your knife is your best friend when you are in the outdoors and trying to survive. The survival knife is a tool that can be used in so many ways; it is the most invaluable tool you may possess. There are literally hundreds of different knives to choose from but you should be choosing one before you leave for the outdoors.
Buy a Survival Knife that fits YOU!
Size: You want your knife to be small enough to carry but large enough to be used to cut branches from trees, butcher meat and even for digging.
Sharpness: Your survival knife should be sharp at all times especially when you first purchase it, if it isn’t sharp then, then it never will be.
Balance: Your knife should have a good balance to it, meaning the blade and handle will complement each other. When you swing the knife, the weight if the blade should be doing a lot of the work. Try a few knives and you will notice how they differ in balance and pick the one that best suits you.
Good Handle: The handle of the outdoor knife should be comfortable to use and preferably made of wood as this means it won’t slip as much.
If possible try and get a knife that is fixed blade. This means that the blade of the knife doesn’t fold in. A fixed blade knife is more reliable and safer to use as some folding knives don’t lock well or can slip and cause injury. Always make sure your knife has a good sheath, leather is the best kind, and that it is sheathed when not in use.
A Good “Sharpening Stone” is a Must!
The proper care and maintenance of your knife is extremely important and should be a daily ritual when it is in use. Sharpening the blade is essential and the best way to do this is to purchase a sharpening stone. Diamond sharpeners and other type of sharpeners are good but none of these do as good a job as a sharpening stone in the hands of someone who knows how to use one. Your knife’s blade should be sharpened to a point that is not too steep and is still thick enough not to chip.
To properly use a sharpening stone, it is best to dampen it first and then move the blade over the stone in a circular motion on angled so that you are removing the burrs and chips from the cutting edge, you will feel it when you get that perfect angle. When Sharpening the blade it must be simultaneously flipped to get the best cutting edge possible. A sharpened blade should have no burrs and the angle of the cutting edge should be constant.
Your knife is your best friend when in a survival situation. Choosing the right Survival knife and maintain it by keeping it very sharp knife sharpener are lessons that should be learned before heading to the great outdoors for some Outdoor Survival fun.

As a collection of puzzles Path To Mnemosyne is a peculiar conflation of ingenious and over-familiar, as well as having a name you’ll never remember when you want to find it on Steam later. As a small vignette, it looks beautiful (if slightly held back by clunky controls) offering smart puzzling ideas, in between some of the most hackneyed puzzles you can think of. I rather liked it.
Presented in a scribbly hand-drawn style, predominantly grayscale, it’s a striking and splendid look. The screenshots look great, but the game itself looks better, the scribbles wiggling and squiggling as you play, appearing impossibly from a central point as you progress ever forward.
Movement is pretty simple. You primarily go forward or backward along a seemingly infinite path, that ever-stretches to a vanishing point, left and right reserved for sidling along curved paths that loop around the screen. You are, essentially, in a magic tunnel. Early puzzles are solved by standing on marked spots that let you rotate the paths ahead or behind you around their invisible central pivot, rearranging the pathways, and walking over buttons. But then you must also jump, and the game isn’t quite up to it. It’s an stilted affair, with no fluidity – you essentially come to a standstill and do an awkward feet-together hop. And I thought, “Uh-oh”. And then, you know what? It didn’t much matter.
It’s a short game, which certainly helps. It’s also one that’s visually fascinating, both in terms of the extraordinary hand-drawn beasts and skellingtons and body parts that encircle the path, and in how the whole game stretches before you (and indeed behind you) throughout. Escher-inspired in places, the game hypnotically appears as you run toward it, revealing intricate creations about you.
What you’re doing swings pendulum-like between interesting and creative puzzles, and ideas as hoary and groan-inducing as pattern repetition. Press the buttons in the order they lit up. No! Don’t wanna! Already did in 80 million other games! And then just as I’m moaning to myself about that, I’m working out how to use teleporting holes and rotating platforms to propel myself to hard-to-reach places. Or spotting tiny hidden details in the amazing drawings that tip me off about what I should be trying to do next.
I don’t think the game quite achieves its ambitions with its story. You play a young girl, seemingly trapped in some sort of metaphorical reality, as an increasingly unreliable narrator encourages you to gather memories in the form of blue orbs, unlocked by solving puzzles. Flashes of memories on successfully completing a section show grotesque visions, or frightening faces, implying some manner of horror, and in which direction this is heading is yours to find out as you play.
But the endings don’t quite deliver on the promise of the build-up, leaving too much narrative work for the player to do where the game abruptly stops. Which led me to think that it didn’t really earn its glimpses of horror for a little girl motif. That certainly isn’t helped by the school nativity-level acting from the detached voices that follow you as you play, lines clumsily intoned in a rather atmosphere cracking way. So it’s testament to that atmosphere that it survives this.
The game’s Steam page rather peculiarly has an age gate on it, which itself explains that there’s no obviously adult content within. I thought this seemed like overkill, until my three year old watched me playing for a bit. I figured he’d enjoy the drawings of animals he’s into (snakes, sea creatures – I wasn’t in a section with the scary skulls or the like), and the strange way the tunnel impossibly appears, but very quickly he trembled, “Daddy! I don’t like this game!” and made his exit. Oops. But yeah, point made. That rather works.
So yes, it’s a bit of a muddle, but it’s a really interesting one. I could really do with never playing another pattern repetition puzzle again as long as I live, let alone the requisite set of three. But then I’m always up for scouring scenery for tiny clues and experimenting with game worlds to see how they apply! I probably never need to see another “child trapped and probably tortured” excuse for esoteric gaming weirdness, but then again I love how creepy the game manages to be despite those hokey moments. Also, gosh, it’s just so wonderfully animated and drawn.
I should add that I did have to contact the developer at one point, because I was so mystified by a puzzle. It turned out I’d correctly figured out what to do, but the demands of its timing are astonishingly precise – too much so I’d suggest, since reflexes aren’t most puzzle-solvers favourite requirement – not least in a game where movement is too clunky to merit the demand. And it’s worth adding that in his reply, I was told the game draws from a philosophy of Greek mythology and metaphor in ways I’m too much of a thicko to have noticed. But ace. I mean, you’re probably rolling your eyes at me because you already knew that Mnemosyne was a Titan, daughter of Uranus and Gaea, and the goddess of memory, but you probably went to a better school that wot I did.
Classical education standards aside, this is certainly a mixed bag, but a very interesting one, and I’m certainly very pleased to have played it. If they could have ditched the dullest puzzles for more of the smartest, and had that jump feel a little less awkward, I think it would have shone. But it still glimmers rather nicely, and for a price that makes it worth it.
Path to Mnemosyne is out on Steam on Wednesday Spetember 26th for $10.

Sadio Mané’s opening goal in Liverpool’s 2-1 win at Fulham last Sunday meant that he and Mohamed Salah had managed to achieve something last managed by club legends Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush, 36 years ago!
As reported in Liverpoolfc.com, Salah and Mané became the first pair of Reds forwards to both reach at least 20 goals each in all competitions for two seasons in a row since 1983.
Last season, Mané scored 20 goals as Liverpool finished fourth in the Premier League and reached the Champions League final in Kiev. Salah, of course, had that phenomenal first season at Anfield and managed 44 goals in all competitions.
This season, so far, both players have now managed 20 goals as The Reds battle for the Premier League title while continuously pursuing European Cup number six.
To match this achievement, you have to go as far back as the early 80s. Dalglish and Rush both notched at least 20 goals apiece in consecutive campaigns during the 1981/82 season and the 1982/83 season.
Before that, you have to go back to the 60s, when the deadly frontline of Ian St John and Roger Hunt managed it for three seasons running (1961/62, 1962/63, 1963/64).
The rarity of such occurrences points to what a fantastic accomplishment this is for Mané and Salah.
Here’s hoping we’re watching them bang plenty more goals in at Anfield for some years to come.

I’m on new fertility medication that makes me so nauseous that I take it right before bed. I’m so busy at work there’s no way I can sneak away for an insemination. Not going to happen.
I’m hoping that my cycle will be longer than usual and maybe I’ll ovulate over the weekend instead of right in the middle of my work week. If I ovulate during the week, then we’ll just have to do it the old fashioned way and pray.
A friend of mine was so sweet to FedEx me all her fertility supplies. Like Christmas in the middle of the summer!

One of the major annoyances in Windows 8 that many tutorials fail to to mention is that their chrome/explorer browsers and “browse for folder” windows automatically open in app/metro mode in Windows 8.
You will see yourself running into this when uploading a media file via browser through wordpress/joomla/drupal etc via the backend CMS for example. If you want to upload an image directly from a URL, you will not be able to do it in Windows 8 metro. Instead, you will have to download the file locally first before uploading. To resolve this without doing that, set your browsers to open in desktop mode.
Files that open in Metro/App mode may also experience the same issues. To get around this issue, change default program file associations.
From the Windows start screen type: default programs and select the Default Programs icon under results. The Default Programs windows will open on the desktop. You will have a couple of ways to change the default programs that open your files. The easiest is to click “Set your default programs.” Select the program you want to set as your default for your files.
Was looking for a quick fix for this. The app design on Windows 8 is quite annoying.

Just outside the back door of the house at Manly is a cupboard. I think the door is always open. I've had a peep in. There's a bucket and mop, some household cleaning items, a row of shoes and a few bits and pieces of things.
Last night I had the back door open, and after a while I could hear this banging and crashing in the cupboard. My first thought was that it was the cat, Slinky, and I went to the cupboard and came face to face with a ringtail possum. We faced each other - our faces only 18 inches apart. We just stared at each other.
I chose to back off, and slowly inched my way back through the back door, which I shut so that the possum could not enter. Interestingly I wondered if a possum had been in the house during the day. There were a few things in the bathroom and kitchen that had fallen and I don't think there was any wind. The cat could have done it. I don't know.
Ps. our daughter is back home from hospital. A little sore! Actually her elbow was dislocated. So it was put back into place and sent home. We all have to wait on her now!

1 What Are Fullerton Health Clubs?
What Are Fullerton Health Clubs?
If you have actually had a specifically stressful day, a half-hour stroll at the gym track or on the treadmill could supply the emotional lift and also anxiety decrease you need, inning accordance with the Mayo Clinic. Yet those that experience occasional bad moods or a decline in their mood aren’t the just one who could benefit from regular journeys to the fitness center. The Mayo Center locates that normal exercise might make a big distinction for some individuals by helping to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety as well as clinical depression.
As you begin your workout, your mind’s natural chemicals – one of its chemical messengers – attach memory with muscle mass to get you moving, according to the Franklin Institute. At the very same time, the stress and anxiety hormones cortisol and adrenaline are reduced as endorphins are released, locates Harvard Medical.
Regular workouts at the health club will at some point aid you accomplish your physical fitness goals. When you search in the mirror as well as see a thinner or more muscle body looking back at you, you’ll acquire renovations in self-confidence as well as confidence. Additionally, time invested working out with other people in an aerobics course gives you with a social environment where you could gain the emotional benefits obtained with the friendship you create with various other classmates.
A current survey located that in between 30% as well as 40% of individuals who have a fitness center membership state they never ever utilize it. They go for a couple of weeks and find the health club truly isn’t an excellent match.
Initially, discover a gym or club that is close to residence or job. The closer it is the more likely you are to go.
Take a tour and ask as several questions as you desire prior to you join. Make certain it’s the ideal health club for you. What kind of people exercise there? Are they like you? Does the staff appearance pleasant or intimidating? Do you really feel secure while you’re taking the excursion?
Take advantage of free personal training or use a trainer momentarily. You’ll get accustomed to the devices and develop a work regimen.
A lot of trusted clubs will certainly allow you to function out totally free at least when prior to joining. Do your workout at the time of day that you normally prepare to function out to see how crowded the club gets and exactly how lengthy you would certainly have to wait for equipment.
Learn about classes. Ask to see a course routine and also talk to some instructors. Learn if courses are totally free with your subscription.
Learn if somebody is consistently on staff to respond to inquiries about your exercise. Excellent gyms will certainly have someone readily available to instruct you ways to make use of all of the tools properly for free. Learn, as well, if your gym has individual trainers that can take you through your workout. This normally entails a cost (be particular who you choose as your trainer– in most city clubs, the fee for a personal trainer is thirty-five to eighty bucks an hour). Although you may not wish to make use of a trainer constantly, having a professional check out your workout every once in a while could do wonders to boost your strategy.
Join a fitness center that is close to your house or job. Health and fitness club masters have just what they call the “twelve-week/twelve-mile” hypothesis: Many people who sign up with will work out for just the initial twelve weeks of their membership, as well as just if the club is much less compared to twelve miles from their office or home. Discover an area that’s close and also practical.
Consider the ambience. Choose a gym where you really feel comfortable. Look at the people that go there and think about how you would feel working out among them. Perhaps exercising with the “twenty-somethings” makes you pursue more. Or perhaps you choose an area that uses courses designed specifically for individuals over sixty. Some clubs are geared exclusively or primarily to ladies, as well as others are much more geared to guys. Look around and decide just what ideal fits you.
Is it exactly what you require for your exercise? I prefer a club that not only has the equipment I such as, yet also the equipment I could make use of if I develop an injury. If a club does not have numerous extra elliptical machine devices as well as numerous extra rowing machines at the time I am most likely to work out, I recommend selecting another club.
The IRS commonly restricts deducting the price of a fitness center subscription because it defines this type of expense as a company, enjoyment or social experience as opposed to a therapeutic atmosphere. Also if you use the facility to improve your general physical wellness, deal with an ailment or perk up your mental health, it still can not be written off. That claimed, among the criteria the IRS considers when determining if a fitness center membership or program is eligible for a deduction pertains to period: If you currently come from the facility before you attempt to compose it off, the deduction might be a challenging sell.
If your doctor suggests routine exercises calling for a gym membership as part of your therapy for weight-loss, condition– e.g., diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular ailments or hypertension, as an example– or mental rehab, the condition might qualify as a deduction if you could provide evidence that your doctor “has bought you to perform a certain physical activity due to an identified medical condition,” inning accordance with State-licensed accountant Tara Haas. Show this situation and most of the times you could deduct only the charges you spent for the program that assists you regain your wellness, not your membership fees.
It’s a healthy and balanced action in the appropriate direction, fitness center subscription fees are just often taken into consideration qualified with a Flexible Spending Account (FSA). In order to qualify for FSA compensation, you would certainly need a medical professional’s note indicating that the fitness center membership would aid with the therapy of a certain clinical condition. The IRS considers wellness club/gym subscription charges as “basic wellness” items, as opposed to as a requirement to treat details medical conditions. Unfortunately, that usually leads to fitness center subscriptions not being thought about as FSA eligible, yet it actually depends upon the FSA account.
It’s finest to consult your FSA plan summary to find out about FSA eligible expenditures, or to call your FSA manager to obtain more info. If you want to uncover even more FSA eligible expenditures, Check the eligibility listing.

All week and the forecast is looking good. We’ve seen this before though only to have hopes dashed at the final hurdle. So, we set off, full of expectation and hope, but a much depleted team due to late drop outs (for good reasons).
Our accommodations at ‘The Bunker’ are ready for us as we arrive at various times during the late afternoon and evening. Owen, a late replacement, takes the biscuit though arriving at 4.30 am, after needing a nap en route. So we have a bright (expression only) and early start with breakfast at 6.45, ready for an 8.00 ropes off for a 9.30 slack window.
Our first dive, the M2. Perfect conditions; a slight chop, overcast but bright and clear. Descending down the shot (placed perfectly on the conning tower) we could see the shape emerging before us. Good visibility at about 8m meant we got a really good appreciation of the wreck and all the life in and around it. Conger, Bib, Tompots, Pollack, Crabs. A real treat with the hangar safely accessible for those who wanted to share it with the free swimming conger.
As always with Portland the second dive is a drift. An opportunity to go scalloping and critter searching on Lulworth Banks. Visibility was limited so keeping your buddy was a challenge, not possible to hang around and wait ! Lots of crabs, small wrasse, gobies and some nice corals. There were patches of king and queen scallops, so a good haul by some.
Jill had observed the funfair (difficult to miss since it was next door) and so persuaded / bullied various members of the team onto the waltzers. Being organised, we had booked the ‘Cove’ for dinner and a very pleasant meal was had by all.
A slightly later ropes off and a more civilised breakfast time made for an easier start and the flat calm sea helped ! St Dunstan, a bucket dredger, our first dive of the day. Great visibility of 10m mean for an excellent dive. Lots of open areas, the operating machinery clearly visible, hundreds of fish around (as previous day) plus lobster and huge shrimp. A really good dive for both metal heads and veg divers. Off the side of Portland headland at Black Nor Point for the drift. Quite gentle so opportunity for an explore – more hidden life except the ubiquitous wrasse and occasional cuttlefish. Some saw the remains of the James Fennel.
Since we were starting early it made for an early finish so we continued the custom of a drink in the ‘Boat that Rocks’ (Marina Bar) before going too far. Except that Jill went a little too far with ‘play’ pushing Huw into the hedge. Huw not realising that this was ‘play’, was a little more forceful in his response and we all heard the loud scream and turned to see two feet sticking out of the hedge. Only pride dented though.
We were meant to take slow cookers but only one arrived. So we ended up cooking in the late afternoon. An excellent chilli following the starter of diver caught scallops was enjoyed by all. Thanks to Frankie, Ray and Matt.
Our last day came around too soon. A slightly more adventurous sea journey to get into the lea of Portland for our second sub, HMS Sidon. The visibility was not great (we had been spoilt) at maybe 4m but it was enough to see where you wanted to go. Fantastic fin shape on the stern and the usual profusion of life.
We decided to repeat Black Nor Point to search for more cuttlefish and wreckage. We got both ! A great end to a very enjoyable long weekend.
Just returned from our excellent excursion to Portland to dive with Skindeep Diving Weymouth. Len, our admirable skipper, gave us the best dive sites we could ask for given the relatively poor underwater visibility. Maggie gave us cups of team, support and encouragement.
We stayed in the ‘Bunker’. A ten minute walk from the Marina and just across the road from Chesil Beach and convenient hostelries.
The weather was glorious. Shorts were the standard dress code (not just for Steve).
Over three days we managed four lumps of metal – The M2, James Fennell, St Dunstan and Black Hawk (bow) and 3 drifts. The viz on the M2 and St Dunstan was disappointing at about a metre driven by the recent poor weather and a lot of plankton (good news for the fishes !). The shallower drifts all had better viz at up to 5m. The first started with the scattered wreckage of the James Fennell and merged into a nice sedate drift. The drift to Portland head was a little more exciting especially for those going shallow. There was plenty of life to glimpse on the way.
The dive of the weekend was undoubtedly the Black Hawk. Scattered wreckage creating wonderful shapes emerging from the sand and gravel ridges. Teeming with life. All kinds of beautiful Wrasse including male cuckoos, large Tompots and Bib of all shapes and sizes (including huge), Pollack and sightings of parts of Congers. Lots of crabs of varying persuasions -including spiders and huge edibles. Some very pretty irridescent lobster. This must a be a truly awesome wreck in better visibility.
Our Barbi on Chesil Beach was undoubtedly the catering success of the weekend. Watching the sunset into the distant coastline.

In March of 1965, Lieutenant Philip J. Caputo landed at Danang with the first ground combat unit deployed to Vietnam. Sixteen months later, having served on the line in one of modern historys ugliest wars, he returned homephysically whole but emotionally wasted, his youthful idealism forever gone.
A Rumor of War is far more than one soldiers story. Upon its publication in 1977, it shattered Americas indifference to the fate of the men sent to fight in the jungles of Vietnam. In the years since then, it has become not only a basic text on the Vietnam War but also a renowned classic in the literature of wars throughout history and, as the author writes, of the things men do in war and the things war does to them.

Samantha Shostak, our Lowcountry District Manager, shares her favorite things to do in and around Hilton Head, the location of our first store.
Hilton Head has always held a special place in my heart as it was the vacation spot for my family before we decided to finally move down. My favorite spot to eat on the island is Stu's Surfside Subs, a sandwich shop located in Coligny Plaza. Stu's is run by a local couple who are the sweetest people you will ever meet. Their beach club with peppered turkey, fresh guacamole, and the softest bread will give your tummy the smiles it needs to conquer the beach or a day of shopping!
A must go to store on Hilton Head is called Del Sol. They offer a range of products that change color in the sun, whether it's nail polish, t-shirts, or frisbees there is something for everyone. When my nephew or one of my nieces has a birthday I always grab them something from Del Sol because I know those kids are going to love it! This shop is also located right in Coligny Plaza.
If it's my day off and I'm spending it on Hilton head I love to hit up the Frosty Frog for a frozen daiquiri, shop around the plaza for a bit and then head to the beach! Coligny beach is so beautiful, with wooden bench swings and the fountains filled with happy squealing children, it has an awesome vacation atmosphere even for us locals. After some fun in the sun beach time, I always make sure to stop at the Tiki hut to hear live music and enjoy a pina colada while enjoying the ocean views or playing beach volleyball.
Now if it rains on HHI, I mean it is a tropical destination, Shelter Cove has recently been rebuilt with a bunch of fun restaurants and bars. World of Beer has just moved in with a huge selection of beers from around the world and I love to try to hit everyone! They have oversized Jenga to play and also have some themed nights like trivia, etc. When the rain clears, the location right along the marina allows you to walk along the water and gander at the docked boats. It's beautiful and romantic.
Summertime is when HHI is in full bloom! The visitors are happy, the locals are busy and the palm trees sway in the breeze. It is truly heaven on earth.
I love making Hilton Head custom signs for our transient folks who consider this a second home or even for the locals that show their pride for the small island. My favorite and most creative sign I've seen was made by an employee of mine. It's a small, three-letter sign that says HHI featuring palm trees, a hammock and a full-color picture of the Harbour Town lighthouse, a staple for anyone sightseeing or avid golf player! Many visitors and locals love to take that one home as a souvenir or gift for someone that loves the island as much as we do!

He’s Andy Six, Andy Black, and Andrew Biersack. Now, he’s also The Ghost of Ohio, a smalltown boy taking a chance on life in the big city to chase his dreams. His semi-autobiographical sonic tale arrives Friday, April 12, 2019, via Lava/Republic Records. The album serves as a companion piece to Black’s upcoming graphic novel of the very same name, which is set to arrive on April 19th.
With the blueprint for his own personal sound in his hands, Singer, Songwriter and Pianist Black sat down to pen a second solo collection, the conceptually-themed, 12-track The Ghost of Ohio. Produced by Grammy Award-winning John Feldmann (Blink-182, Panic! At The Disco), the album serves as a soundtrack to Black’s upcoming graphic novel. Marrying melancholy themes with upbeat Rock and Pop to tell the tale of someone who died young and whose spirit inhabits an area for a hundred years looking for ways to connect, The Ghost of Ohio aims for bold storytelling embedded in catchy Pop Rock tracks.
Down a long and winding road we travel into the story of The Ghost of Ohio via first track, “Introduction: Resurrection.” Electronic atmospherics create a somber mood as Black sings of anxiety and demons, and, of course, hopes for redemption. Much as its title suggests, this is a perfect introduction to what is to follow and a sweet little summary of the entire tale.
“The Promise” boldly explodes with piano worthy of a Broadway production moving into a reflective glance back at the glory days of youth; the dreams, the mistakes, the glorious freedom of believing in the impossible. It’s like a coming-of-age tale set to dramatic melodies — oh yes, and saxophone! — that allows Black to weave his honey-coated vocals around the words inside a book, preparing listeners to turn to the next page.
Funky bass licks delve into “Westwood Road,” the album’s first video/single. Moving on but wanting to rewind, this is the desire to leave and the desire to stay; a confession from the boy who is torn between wasting away in Ohio and taking his chances in the big city. It’s dance-y, it’s Pop-y, but it falls a little flat. Continuing to inject sass into his approach, the Synthpop-y scrumptiousness of “Know One” is a look at playing the game to stay alive, the Ohio boy trying to learn the nuances of life in cutthroat Hollywood. Sonically, this is the closest we get to Black’s previous solo release, a fun, danceable moment with smart lyrics and a clear stand-out.
Electronic orchestration weaves the spell into infectious anthem “Soul Like Me.” Lost and the hopeless souls are guaranteed to sing-along and embrace this power ballad written in the name of finding like-minded individuals. Alternately, “The Wind & Spark” goes for twinkling ivories and a melodic Pop Rock jam feel with some understated Country edges to its guitar work.
For the titular “Ghost of Ohio,” Black dips into some sonic minimalism on the track’s verses, allowing his voice and his autobiographical confessions to steal the spotlight. While, for the chorus, he utilizes some vocal effects to give the song edge and to add an infectious kick that makes it feel Top 40-worthy. To lighten the mood a bit, a toy piano kicks off “Heroes We Were,” a reflective glance backward in hopes of saving the future. Meanwhile, an electronic beat anchors the observations of “Feast or Famine” before the love ballad “Heaven” finds a heartbroken, lost boy chasing his dreams into the arms of a special lady.
Next, “The Martyr” explodes into undeniable beats as Black implores listeners to save themselves, as he indirectly speaks of his own need to put himself first and play the martyr. This segues perfectly into the album’s finale, “Fire In My Mind.” Here, acoustic guitar keeps pace with Black’s velvety baritone as he sings of finding his way through the flames to freedom.
It would certainly be hard to say that The Ghost of Ohio is all killer and no filler, though there are a multitude of diverse approaches throughout: from VH-1 worthy stints (“The Wind & Spark,” “Heroes We Were”), to Synthpop infectiousness (“Know One,” “Feast or Famine,” “The Martyr”), to ballads (“Soul Like Me,” “Heaven”). The positive: Black has changed up his sound and taken chances with his twelve eclectic yet cohesive tracks. Sure, sometimes the grandiose expectations fall a bit flat, but in those key moments all the elements come together and Black shines with edgy Pop Rock finesse — and you can’t help but dance.
However, with all due respect, it still feels like Black is holding some key piece of himself back, that he’s never truly going for broke in his lyrical confessions. There’s no arguing that the man has talent, and it appears that there’s something truly amazing hidden inside of him. But for now, fans have to accept what he’s willing to give — which is good but not yet great. None of this keeps his music from being fully enjoyable, but much like Pop music, Andy Black sometimes rings a bit hollow. For these reasons, Cryptic Rock give Andy Black’s The Ghost of Ohio 4 of 5 stars.

Travel with Kevin and Ruth!: The entertainment budget is blown for the month!
Of course Ruth and I haven't been around to take part in this tradition for the past 10 years, but the rest of the family has still been doing it.
Well this year, we got to take part as well!
My mother had made reservations yesterday for 12 people at the top of the line Wilfrid's Restaurant in Ottawa's famous Chateau Laurier Hotel. They do a very nice (and very expensive!) Sunday Brunch.
From left, my older sister Elaine, Ruth, our son Alex, grandson Cameron, Alex's girlfriend CJ, son in law Justin, grandaughter Sadie, our daughter Lindsey, my mother Elspeth, my younger sister Alison, my nephew Marshal.
"Located within the elegant walls of Fairmont Château Laurier, Wilfrid's is an award-winning restaurant in Ottawa offering a wide selection of culinary creations. Our Executive Chef and his team are famous for their superb selection of regional Canadian cuisine. This beautiful dining room offers wonderful views of the Parliament Buildings and the Rideau Locks."
Part of the buffet table.
My first plate of food!
The food was delicious. I really don't know what they could do to make it any better for selection. The roast beef was tender and juicy. Fresh made omelettes if you wish. Waffles with real maple syrup.
But, for all of this you pay a price. It's $44 CAD ($34 USD) per adult. Kids under 6 are free, so Cameron and Sadie weren't charged. Add in taxes and a tip and you're around the $55 CAD ($42 USD) per person mark.
It turns out that when my mother made the reservation, she was asked if anybody had any food allergies, and my mother mentioned that there are 7 of the 12 who are gluten intolerant. She didn't think anything more of it, and we just ate what we could. There was lots of choice, so it wasn't an issue.
But as expected, many of the desserts contained wheat flour.
As it came to that time of the meal, the head chef came to our table, with a couple of people carrying trays. They were specially made gluten free Christmas treats!
The dining room manager said they cater to everybody and they want everybody to be able to enjoy as much as they can.
Yes, you should get extremely good service for the price...but this was unexpected, and a very classy touch.
The head chef at our table.
Cameron, guarding the dessert table!
Really nice meal, but the entertainment budget is blown for the month!
Ruth and the kids in the hot tub. The outside temperature was -16C (3F).
A great day with family and friends. Today, we're headed up to Ruth's father's place west of Ottawa and we'll be there until after Christmas.
The popular Miracle Grow indoor garden kit on sale...cheapest it's ever been. I always thought this would be a good hobby for an RV'er!
Well worth the price. Sometimes you just have to "do it". We have one young lad in the family with Celiac disease, and we make sure there's not only something for him to eat, but a large selection of gluten free items, with no cross contamination (he's quite sensitive). The "Vegans" however? That's another story. Best keep my opinion on that to myself.
Totally agree with you Bob, and it was really good! We would have spent way more than that if we bought Christmas presents for everyone.
Very nice. The gluten-free deserts must have been a truly unexpected treat.
Yes, the desserts trays were totally unexpected. It was a very nice touch.
Wait...why does this come out of your entertainment budget? Since you are celebrating with family in lieu of exchanging gifts, I think this should come out of the gift budget, thus leaving you a few dollars for future entertainment! Or at least that's the way my convoluted mind works. ;-) Looks like a lovely meal and time!
It comes out of the entertainment budget because we look at it as entertainment. Plus, we don't have a "gift" budget, for us gifts would go under our miscellaneous category. Really it doesn't matter where it goes because we are still spending that money one way or another and still need to try and stay within our monthly budget.
$44++for breakfast!! Well it is Ottawa where everything is expensive.

Join sommelier Shar Peterson for a new class diving into an amazing wine region, little known to Americans: Valle d’Aosta.
The Asota valley is located in far northern Piemonte, on the Swiss border. It’s the smallest wine region in Italy in both size and production (only 36,000 cases total of DOC production), and it’s the highest elevation vineyards in all of Europe. Because of the high elevation, the phylloxera louse was never able to take hold, resulting in most vines being on their own rootstock (a rarity worldwide, but especially in Europe).
Some varieties that grow here you know well: Pinot Noir, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo. Then there some wonderful oddities: Vien de Nuts and Petite Rouge, plus many more.
Come learn about the region, the people, and the wines in this fantastic and beautiful corner of Italy!
Class starts at 5:30 and includes some small bites from the kitchen of Black Dog Cafe.
