    Kaia has so much patience and talent! We were pleasantly surprised with the results of our photo shoot with our cranky 2 year old. She is a sweetheart and has a keen eye. She knows how to capture beautiful images in the most unlikely circumstances. And worth every penny of her reasonable rates! Thanks Kaia!

Tips to performing better puppet shows

22 May

v Puppet shows on your own puppet stage are not only great fun for children, but are also rich with developmental benefits that include nurturing creativity, teaching pretend play and allowing positive reinforcement. Puppet shows are also dramatic performances, and some simple rules of thumb will help make performing easier and more rewarding for the children, as well as clearer to understand for their audiences.

CHARACTER VOICES: Encourage each child to make up a character voice they think suits the puppet, or that they can perform well. Remember there’s a great deal of flexibility and creative license in matching the role to the puppets on hand. The child can mimic a specific character from movies or TV that suits the part, such as the Cowardly Lion from “The Wizard of Oz,” Mickey Mouse’s high falsetto, and so on.

WALKING: To simulate a puppet walking or running across the stage, encourage the children to take it beyond merely sliding the puppets across the stage. Rather, have them bounce the puppet slightly up and down to represent each step as they move from one position to the other. These small “step-size” bounces can create more of a sense of excitement on stage and also allow puppeteers some great opportunities for jumping from view and other fun, dramatic moves.

BODY LANGUAGE: Show your children how to use pauses for dramatic or comedic effect, explaining to them how controlling the puppet’s body moves is as important to their acting as their enthusiasm on stage. A pause and a slow turn by the puppet to the audience can pull the viewers into the puppet’s exasperation or its “thought process.” Paul Winchell, the great puppeteer and ventriloquist, was a master of the slow turn. Think of all the other ventriloquists and puppeteers you’ve seen. Sometimes a hesitation plays as well as a spoken line. Slightly vibrating the puppet can communicate fear or can be used to create a double-take of surprise. Holding up the puppet’s arms can communicate glee. A puppet’s hand on its chin shows it’s thinking. Hunching the puppet forward can mean sadness. Help the children develop their own “body language” moves. Most animated cartoons use the same techniques.

TALKING: With moving-mouth puppets, the natural tendency for most is to SHUT the puppet’s mouth in sync with each syllable. But humans do the opposite, and so should puppets. It may take practice, but try to teach each child to OPEN the puppet’s mouth with every syllable. Sid worked with the Muppet puppeteers once, and that’s the first thing they taught him.

GENDER NOTE: In adapting our collection of Aesop’s Fables scripts, we’ve referred to the animal characters in the neuter “it,” because we don’t know if a boy or girl is ultimately going to play the part. (Aesop seemed to assume all animals were male.) When you find a script to adapt, you may have to switch pronouns, too. But the children will usually point that out right away. Don’t let the gender of the original material keep you from performing a script you think works well with your puppet cast.

Puppets aren’t, by construction, as fluid and flexible in communicating the emotions as humans are. As humans, we can roll our eyes, frown, smile and show how we feel in the subtle ways. If a child is having difficulty making the puppet communicate a certain emotion, have him stand in front of a mirror and try to express the emotion without the puppet. Point out if the child has tilted his head, drooped his shoulders or any other natural movements he has drawn upon to express the emotion. Then help him to translate these movements to the puppet. This will help the child become more aware of and comfortable with his emotions, and your puppet show will be richer and more enjoyable.

Grumpy Cat Toys and a Not-So-Grumpy Dirk

I’m sure most of you have read about Grumpy Cat or seen pictures of him. I think he’s super funny even if it’s unintentional. I doubt he’ll be happy to hear I love him or that he now features in cat toys – at best he probably can’t care less.

Yes, you read it: Grumpy Cat toys!! I have to admit I think I might like these even more than Dirk does. The toys have the characteristic grumpy face which just makes me laugh out loud.

How do Dirk and the grumpy faces get along? Well, let’s find out!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Whoa, seriously what’s that look on his face?!?!
(It’s his natural facial expression Dirk, Grumpy can’t help it)

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

All right then, but I sure want to give it some good kicks 🙂

The Catnip Sock has some bells attached to it and the sock itself makes a funny rustling, crinkly sound. Most cats absolutely love this. Dirk will come running as soon as he hears it. You can hide the toy and squeeze it a few times to arouse his hunting instincts. Wait for you cat to get into ‘hunting mode’ and just watch him pounce and kick it around 🙂 And of course it contains the much-loved catnip… I’m afraid Dirk is an addict and I’m his enabler…

The other Grumpy Cat toy we play with a lot is technically a door hanger. I say technically because Dirk much prefers playing with it on the floor or anywhere else rather than the door. It makes sense too, because it is quite big and really suited for interactive games or stretching&kicking it around – which Dirk loves 🙂

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

No mom, I don’t want to play with you. It’s all mine!

The door hanger looks like a cat and thus has also got four legs. Initially Dirk wasn’t so sure about all those dangling legs, but he soon discovered you can stretch and kick all at the same time. Another fun feature: when he gives the head some proper kicks it makes a squeaky sound too – which sent him flying the first time around.

While Dirk prefers dragging and kicking this toy around, you can absolutely hang this toy on the door knob. We only have door handles in the house and it’s therefore a bit difficult for Dirk to get the toy off the handle and play with it. However, if your doors have knobs then your can can easily grab hold of the toy’s legs and pounce them. With some effort they might be able to get them off the door knob. Just imagine the look on your cat’s face when they succeed!

Dirk is truly becoming one of Grumpy Cat’s fans and as they say “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”!

(work those ears&eyes a bit more Dirk)

This is me with my lovely cat Dirk! Let me tell you something about both of us.
I work as a cat sitter for Cat Care London and am basically surrounded by cats 24/7! I also occassionally walk dogs or board hamsters or rabbits, which Dirk doesn’t seem to care about at all!
Dirk is roughly 8 years old. I got him 6 years ago from a shelter. Dirk is truly the most loving and lovable cat I know. He is very interested in people and loves being cuddled a lot. Dirk spends most of his time relaxing with me or anywhere around the house really. He is also quite playful and loves the games that involve interaction the most.

    1. Hi Rosey, Dirk loves these two toys. He’s still kicking them around&about on a daily basis, lots of fun for us too 🙂

    2. I’ll admit they’re mostly my interpretations of his behaviour, but he certainly loves these toys. He’s still kicking them around on a daily basis so good fun for us too 🙂

Sojourner Truth's America

Sojourner Truth's America

eBook - 2009
Rate this:
This fascinating biography tells the story of nineteenth-century America through the life of one of its most charismatic and influential characters: Sojourner Truth. In an in-depth account of this amazing activist, Margaret Washington unravels Sojourner Truth's world within the broader panorama of African American slavery and the nation's most significant reform era. Born into bondage among the Hudson Valley Dutch in Ulster County, New York, Isabella was sold several times, married, and bore five children before fleeing in 1826 with her infant daughter one year before New York slavery was abolished. In 1829, she moved to New York City, where she worked as a domestic, preached, joined a religious commune, and then in 1843 had an epiphany. Changing her name to Sojourner Truth, she began traveling the country as a champion of the downtrodden and a spokeswoman for equality by promoting Christianity, abolitionism, and women's rights. Gifted in verbal eloquence, wit, and biblical knowledge, Sojourner Truth possessed an earthy, imaginative, homespun personality that won her many friends and admirers and made her one of the most popular and quoted reformers of her times. Washington's biography of this remarkable figure considers many facets of Sojourner Truth's life to explain how she became one of the greatest activists in American history, including her African and Dutch religious herita≥ her experiences of slavery within contexts of labor, domesticity, and patriarchy; and her profoundly personal sense of justice and intuitive integrity. Organized chronologically into three distinct eras of Truth's life, Sojourner Truth's America examines the complex dynamics of her times, beginning with the transnational contours of her spirituality and early life as Isabella and her embroilments in legal controversy. Truth's awakening during nineteenth-century America's progressive surge then propelled her ascendancy as a rousing preacher and political orator despite her inability to read and write. Throughout the book, Washington explores Truth's passionate commitment to family and community, including her vision for a beloved community that extended beyond race, gender, and socioeconomic condition and embraced a common humanity. For Sojourner Truth, the significant model for such communalism was a primitive, prophetic Christianity. Illustrated with dozens of images of Truth and her contemporaries, Sojourner Truth's America draws a delicate and compelling balance between Sojourner Truth's personal motivations and the influences of her historical context. Washington provides important insights into the turbulent cultural and political climate of the age while also separating the many myths from the facts concerning this legendary American figure.

Most jobs involve a clear sense of logic and rationality… and then there’s the creative industry!

Ad creatives, designers, animators, directors, illustrators and more have taken time out to dress up their favourite worst feedback from clients, transforming quotes that would normally give you a twitch, into a diverse collection of posters.

Ireland’s creative community have gotten together to release a lot of pent up anger through the medium of the A3 poster, all in aid of Temple Street Children’s Hospital. The results are brilliant! We have been sending these around the office in work today and it’s a real case of ‘funny ’cause it’s true!’

Hyundai court case

A lawsuit has been filed against Hyundai and Kia seeking $775 million in damage over them overstating the fuel economy of their vehicles.

Both companies had reported higher gas mileage rating on EPA window stickers than the cars were actually capable of. Both companies admitted guilt and are reimbursing 900,000+ customers who had bought affected vehicles.

While most models were found to be 1-2 mpg out on their true figures, some were awry by as much as 6 mpg.

PSA and Renault

French car makers Peugeot and Renault have both suffered massive loses in 2012. Net profit for Renault dropped 39% in six months and Peugeot shares went down to €5.45, closing to their lowest even since 1986.

The two companies have been urged to work more closely if the French automobile industry is to gain a competitive advantage over the dominating German auto industry. Auto makers in Germany are cooperating in the development fuel cell technology for the automobile sector and French manufacturers should also be doing so.

Brand image

Within the European market (home of hatchbacks) Peugeot and Hyundai both have the same target group for their vehicles. The  introduction of the i-range by Hyundai to penetrate this market was a great success, competing with the X08 range of Peugeot’s. The i10 against 107, i20 against the 208, and of course, i30 against the 308.

Both companies have a “cheap” car image in europe, selling themselves with key phrases such as “economical” and “small running costs”. They are mainly targeting at everyday people who are just trying to get from A to B, with little cost and minimum effort. Even the top of the range brand new i40 Tourer and 508 are both less than £20,000 and is being sold for their “efficiency”.

906_hyundai_i10_1 modified-peugeot-107-korea

The RCZ and Veloster are Peugeot and Hyundai’s attempt at offering something different, both are sold on the design of the vehicles and their performance.

In America however, Hyundai has a completely different brand identity to its European counterpart, whilst Peugeot stays pretty much the same. The i-range for Hyundai does not exist in America; the veloster which is at the top of Hyundai Europe’s price range has been dropped to the bottom in America, being one of the cheapest cars they have on offer. As previously mentioned, it is Hyundai’s objective to design cars that match the standard of luxury brands, and it is what they are exactly doing in America. They have a completely different brand image in America, which is quite interesting because there aren’t many companies out there doing this.

Paris_-_Mondial_de_l'automobile_2010_-_Peugeot_508_-_005  2013-Hyundai-Equus-front-three-quarter-1024x640

In the Asian market, Hyundai is considered something in between its European image, and American image. As someone who spent his early years in Hong Kong, I still remember the first family car that dad purchased. It was a Hyundai, a green Hyundai Excel. It was hideous, but it was cheap, which is what mattered most to my parents at the time. I remember it being so ugly that I thought to myself, “I would never buy from that brand when I’m older”.

Many years have passed since then, and I can honestly say that Hyundai is not the same as they used to be. Hyundai offers only the i40 out of the i-range in Hong Kong, and is only selling the Veloster and Elantra as alternatives. Same with Peugeot, as they only offer the 308, 3008, 5008 and RCZ. Hyundai and Peugeot are not common brands in Hong Kong, this is mainly because the tax rate on vehicles is high, but the insurance is low; so when people purchase a new car, they will either go for BMW or Mercedes if they are looking for something luxury, Toyota or Honda for something practical, or Nissan GTR and Lamborghini if they are looking for something sporty. There is not much ground for in-between brands such as Hyundai or Peugeot in Hong Kong as people want brands which are well known.

Hyundai – stepping up the weight category

Hyundai is currently sitting at the world’s forth largest auto-maker position. It has already secured its place in the economic cars market but the chairman & CEO of Hyundai Motor Group Chung Mong-Koo wants the company to  focus  on produce premium quality cars to compete with the likes of BMW and Mercedes.

As a company that made it’s place by building cheap and affordable cars, it seems like a massive risk to be up marketing like this, but the company seems to be finding its way to achieve its goal.

We can see a massive improvement in the design of Hyundai’s premium cars these past few years. The Genesis’s introduction was a warm welcome, and the luxury redesign of the Equus has certainly not been a disappointment.

However, let’s not forget that as of right now, Hyundai’s i-range products are what the company is known for, hopefully Hyundai will not lose it’s position in economic car manufacturer in this transaction.

Company’s Ownership and running

Peugeot and Hyundai are both listed companies on the stock exchange market, so the shareholders  of the 2 companies are constantly changing, but as Both Peugeot and Hyundai remained a “family” business, the people up at the top who makes all the big decisions still carry the company’s name.

In terms of ownership,both companies have given up a lot of their shares to investors. Hyundai family has only retailed 26% shares of the company; the remaining 74% are from other investors with the majority 43% of it coming from foreign investors.

Peugeot have done a similar thing with their ownership of the business, having only maintained 25.4% of the company’s shares. The French government have also recently pumped more money into the business to fund its financial problems and have a good amount to the share of the company.

Ownership wise, the two company seems to be very similar, but in terms of the company’s running, they are in two very opposite situations.

Hyundai Motors is a fairly young company, the business has only been passed down by one generation, and the control of the company is still fairly closed off. As the chairman and the CEO of both Hyundai and Kia group is Chung Mong Koo, the company’s directions are predominately in his hands. If there is a conflict of interest into the running of the company, he is also in charge of the company’s board members, which gives him further control of company, even if other shareholders are not happy with the way the company is going.

Peugeot on the other hand, has been around for over 200 years and passed down many generations, the structure has been heavily diluted and the company has numerous CEOs and chairmans within the company. This means that there are more opinions thrown towards the direction of the company, and less predictable outcome of how companies will work.

In terms of subsidiaries, both companies are parent companies to numerous firms, most notably Kia and Citroën.

As of December 2011, Hyundai has 33.99% ownership of Kia Motors, making them the majority shareholder and have full control over the company. Peugeot also holds 31% of Citroën’s shares and have 48% voting rights, granting them full control over the company also. However, Peugeot and Citroën have a more separate identity than Hyundai with Kia.

Peugeot’s struggle

Peugeot is facing further finical struggle as shares drop down to €5.45; a new low for the company since 1986. Peugeot have approached the government in further borrowing of €7bn to try and rescue the company, but cash doesn’t come freely. What will Peugeot do in return?

Peugeot have already scrapped more than 10,000 jobs and a domestic plant to stem losses approaching €200m a month, while developing future vehicles with General Motors to deliver more savings in five years’ time.

Peugeot is not the only struggling automotive company, the decline in demands have affected other car giants such as ford, GM and Fiat.

The decline in demands could be linked to the increasing Asian automotive market. Also, cars are discretionary expenses to many individuals and this type of spending reduces in a recession as people tend to refrain from spending on luxury items while there is unemployment riskand decrease in wages.

Hyundai – Increasing profit

Hyundai continues its success and have increased its quarterly net profit by 13% to $2 billion.

Its July to September net profit rose to 2.17 trillion won ($1.9 million), above their market forecast and up on last year’s 1.92 trillion won.

Politics have also been kind to the South Korean based manufacturer. As the island dispute between China and Japan goes on, Japanese rivals have been hit with a  decrease in demands, which benefits Hyundai’s sales in China.

Dr. Oz’s Colonoscopy Finds Pre-cancerous Polyp: What Can He Teach Us?

Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Jonathan Lapook.

Mehmet Oz just might be the last person on earth people would expect to get a colon polyp. He’s physically fit (he left me in the dust the last time we ran together), he eats a healthy diet, he doesn’t smoke, and he has no family history of colorectal cancer or colon polyps. But several weeks ago, when Mehmet had his first screening colonoscopy at age 50, I removed a small adenomatous polyp that had the potential to turn into cancer over time. Statistically, most small polyps like his don’t become cancer. But almost all colon cancers begin as benign polyps that gradually become malignant over about 10-15 years. Since there’s no way of knowing which polyps will turn bad, we take them all out. The good news is there’s plenty of opportunity to prevent cancer by removing these polyps while they are still benign. But only about 63 percent of Americans between ages 50 and 75 get screened for colorectal cancer. Patients who smoke, eat diets high in red and processed meats, drink too much alcohol, don’t exercise, and are obese are at increased risk of colorectal cancer. So Mehmet’s healthy lifestyle may actually have protected him from having a bigger polyp – or even colorectal cancer by now. But the bottom line is this: no matter what you do, you can’t totally eliminate your risk of developing this disease, which is expected to strike 143,000 Americans and kill over 51,000 in 2010. About the same number of women is affected as men. And about 70 percent of patients have no family history of colorectal cancer.

Reduce risk from cancer-causing polyps

EXCLUSIVE: Marcheline Bertrand, French actress and mother of Angelina Jolie, has died of cancer

A fiber-rich diet with plenty of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans is commonly associated with a lower risk of colon cancer. Yet in one recent large population study, fiber consumption was unconnected to colon cancer occurrence. No randomized clinical trial the most convincing type of human study has shown that increasing peoples dietary fiber decreases the first appearance or recurrence of polyps either. The problem with the randomized clinical trials so far may be their short duration. None has been more than four years long. It is probable that diets affect on colon cancer takes place over a longer period of time. Despite the lack of supporting evidence from randomized clinical trials, you should still eat the lowfat, mostly plant-based diet researchers recommend to lower colon cancer risk. This eating style might inhibit colon cancer in several ways, such as decreasing polyp formation, slowing the growth of polyps, or blocking their transition from benign to cancerous. Other steps you could take to decrease the formation of colon polyps include limiting your red meat consumption and meeting the current recommendations for folate. This nutrient is found in dark green leafy vegetables, orange juice and other plant foods, and its often low in Americans diets. You should also get enough calcium and vitamin D.

Our Annual General Meeting

The date of our Annual General Meeting (AGM) is a result of the timing of our financial year. Our financial year was determined when our Model Rules were adopted in 1992, which stated the period to be from the 1st January to 31 December of each year, and according to our Model Rules,  the Management Committee is required to hold the AGM within three months of the completion of that financial year.  This year our AGM was held on 25.03.10, at Kenilworth Hall – provided rent free by the Kenilworth Hall Management.

At this AGM,  most of the time available was taken up by the review of the year’s business, followed by the election of the President, Vice-president, Secretary and Treasurer for the coming year. This year, the only nominations for the management positions were from the previous officials of last year. These nominations were presented to the meeting who elected  Steve Walker as President, Rod Heading as Vice-President, Pam Engle as Treasurer and Dennis Woodford as Secretary. The existing Building Committee members will continue to assist in this coming year.

The Obi Obi Hall Property.

The process of application to Council for  building development will soon start, with a quoted cost (to be supplied by Lex Freiburg) of the building works required before the application can proceed.

The Obi Obi Rural Fire Brigade has submitted a specification for their proposed Fire Shed at the rear of the hall property.  The exterior of the building will be of an Australian shed style with horizontal wall cladding.

The Grid.

The Grid (inverted) at J Hoopers, Montville.

It is now at the Hall property awaiting installation by the Sunshine Coast Regional Council.

Mazhya Blog chi navin CHADDI!! Tuk tuk. “Feeling very comfy” is what my blog is saying.

A joke on CHADDI!

Q: What is the problem with very typical Maharashtrian girls?

Ans: She says “Aaho CHADDI ikde tikde taku naka” after sex.

  1. Eeek!

    I don’t think this belong here. In particular, the chaddi joke.

    And your entirely politically incorrect statements are going to start a riot on WordPress (almost all my friends seem to be hell-bent on doing that!)

  2. If we Maharashtrians enjoy Sardar jokes then why not one on us!!

    PS: Please take this joke in a lighter sense as I dont wish to hurt anyone’s sentiments.
    Any emotional disturbance caused is unintentional. No offence meant against the beautiful Maharashtrian girls.

  3. I wanted to write down something on my new theme but the first word that came to my mind was CHADDI. So just scribbled it.

  4. Ha ha!

    Can I send a link of this post to Miss Seema Joshi?

  5. And comment moderation is off!!

    Hurrah! Joy to the world!!

  6. I haved mailed her the reply. I think I will call/msg her only after a week or so.

  7. hey guys….

Fernando Alonso and Mclaren-Honda set for a divorce?

Double world champion Fernando Alonso’s patient with Mclaren Honda might be heading for a divorce after some string of  poor reliability & performance issues at preseason and the Australian GP.  What was gone wrong  for Fernando Alonso at his second stint with Mclaren

3 year term at Mclaren-Honda

Alonso was signed at Mclaren-Honda for a period of 3 years starting from 2015/16 to 2017/18. During the first year at Mclaren, he had to face too many reliability & poor performance issues. He did not complete most of the races and despite this poor show, Alonso was patient enough & he repeatedly said that the Honda was in their initial phase of new V6 turbo engine and the project was mainly focused on building Mclaren for 2016/17 season. In his second stint back at Mclaren, the team finished in 9th position ahead of Manor Racing in the constructors championship.

Reasonable 2nd year

Although, Honda improved their reliability and the performance was said to be reasonable, Mclaren were regularly fighting for a spot in the midfield. Alonso with his extra-ordinary driving, gave Mclaren their highest ever finish with Honda. He notched up two fifth place finishes at the Grand Prix of Monaco and United States respectively. He has a 6th place finish at Russian Grand Prix and couple of 7th place that saw him earn 10th in the drivers championship. Mclaren-Honda achieved 6th in the constructors championship with 76 points.

Early Expectation

The pressure was obviously on Honda engines to deliver and both the Mclaren & the Honda were confident going into the pre-season testing. They have changed the livery from black to orange thereby sticking to their vintage color. The livery changes was matched by the name change moving from their trademark “MP4” to “MCL32”. There was quite a major change at helm as Ron Dennis, the founder & CEO was ousted from Mclaren. American Zak Brown took over the position of executive director at Mclaren.

Preseason woes

With new livery & with great hopes, Mclaren-Honda started the preseason in the worst possible manner. Fernando Alonso was forced to stop the car twice with intermittent electrical issues. The team had changed a number of electrical components on both PU and the chassis, but the problem persisted. Finally, Honda found the source of the problem and it was the excessive vibrations from Honda engine that some-how brought the car to stall.

Overall, the statistics have provided that the Mclaren were the last team in terms of mileage & performnace. This preseason failure dashed any hopes for the season opener at Melbourne. Mclaren-Honda had 2 weeks time to prepare for the Australian GP

Albert Park, Melbourne

With the poor reliability, there were questions whether the Mclaren-Honda would complete the full 57 laps at the Albert Park. With such a poor car Mclaren Honda entered the qualifying with utterly no hopes. Fernando Alonso used all his experience and talent to get the best out of the car as he qualified at stunning 13th position. Daniel Ricciardo who finished 10th in qualifying was demoted after receiving a penalty from FIA which in-turn pushed Alonso to 12th in the qualification.

Alonso had reasonable start gaining one position and occupying 11th. Romain Grosjean who was running in 6th position had to retire early, this moves Alonso to 10th & an unlikely points finish was on the cards for Mclaren. Alonso firmly held on to the 10 position for major part of the race and he was fighting the Force India of Esteban Ocon & Nico Hulkenberg of Renault for 10th, 11th & 12th positions respectively. Alonso did a great job in holding off Ocon who had 20km/hr advantage on the straight over him. Eventually Alonso lost his place to Ocon & Hulkenberg.  In the end, the double world champion had to retire from the Australian GP with a suspension failure.

Alonso blasts Honda

Despite producing a promising Australian GP display, the two time world champion showed his frustration by claiming that Mclaren ‘Should be last’ on the performance-wise when compared to other competitors. Alonso played down the good Australian GP performance by saying it was down to some good fortune and has nothing to do with the car.

Alonso & Honda stands on a single thread

Going by Mark Webber, a F1 pundit & close friend of Alonso, who said that “Alonso might not see full season with Mclaren Honda”. Alonso is started showing signs of frustration & he has openly criticized Honda, the very first time he is being doing that. One cannot question the patient shown by Fernando Alonso as he is giving everything and rightfully earning pundit’s applause for his spectacular driving skill throughout this troublesome period.

Honda said that they will be bringing an upgraded engine in one month time (max). Should Honda fail yet again, then Fernando Alonso who is in last year of his contract with Mclaren may walk away before even the contract expires, if the same level of performance shown by Honda at Melbourne is being repeated . Fernando Alonso may switch over for a vacancy at Mercedes if Bottas fails to live up to the expectation in the current season or Ferrari consider to replace Raikkonen.

Poor Chennaiyin FC paid price for their defensive blunders

Chennaiyin FC were defensively exposed by lethal counter attacking  FC Goa.

The match between Chennaiyin FC and FC Goa was held at Marina Arena, Chennai. Chennaiyin’s owner Abhishek Bachchan was present for this season first home match. Chennaiyin had their new manager under John Gregory and had a great hopes coming into this game.

On a night when Chennaiyin FC were expected to perform well in front of their home crowd, they were miserable and in the end they fell 2-3 to FC Goa. Here is the analysis of Chennaiyin FC

Pathetic First Half

Both teams had a high hope coming into this game but the way chennaiyin played in the first half, it was all over. FC Goa was not so good but chennaiyin FC conceded all the three goals in space of 13 minutes. Goa made the most of chennaiyin’s vulnerability to counter attack. They were also helped by poor goalkeeping from Chennaiyin’s Karanjit Singh. To be frank Chennaiyin goalie Karanjit Singh playing like a street side goalie!!!

He was out of his position for all the three goals. Had he stayed in his position, his defense would have put their bodies on the line and could have avoided FC Goa’s second goal. The third goal he should have saved, he got a hand to it but still ball went past him across the goalline.

Decent second Half

In the second half, Chennaiyin started the match brightly. Chennaiyin pressured FC Goa that saw Jeje and Nelson hit the post twice in space of 2 minutes. Soon the pressured faded away and FC Goa was happy to sit back and defend. Chennaiyin had a good possession and controlled the game from the midfield.

Chennaiyin got the goal they want in the 70th minute through Calderon from a free kick. It was the mistake of Kattimani who failed to gather the ball and fumbled across the goaline.

Chennaiyin got the second goal in the 84th min from penalty scored by Raphael Augusto. Raphael was one of the stars of the night.

Where should chennaiyin need improvement?

Chennaiyin FC played worst football in the first half. To be honest, they were playing like a street side football team. There were no soft touch, no ball control and they failed to retreat when FC Goa countered. In-fact, it was the heavy touch from one of Chennaiyin FC player that gifted FC Goa’s first goal from Chennaiyin’s corner.

Karanjit Singh was better in the second half. There were occasional balls played at him which he collected in a decent manner from his position.

Manager John Gregory might be encouraged from his team’s fighting spirit in the second half but Chennaiyin was exposed frequently down the right wings in the first half. The players lacked stamina and energy while chasing the game in the second half. Though Chennaiyin scored two goals, they seemed like they lacked a striker in front of the goals.

The bottom line is when you are so poor and concedes three goal in quick succession that too in first half, there is no chance of comeback.

Favorites England take on Unpredictable Pakistan at Sophia Gardens

England, one of the top favorites to win the tournament take on the Men in green from Pakistan in the first Semi-Final clash at Cardiff on Wednesday.

The tournament host England have defied the expectation & played like one of the favorites. In fact, they are the only side to remain undefeated in the tournament. England has been consistent throughout the group stages both with bat & ball and they are the red hot favorites going into the semi final. England have stick on to the winning combination and a possible change in playing XI is expected.

Roy set to be dropped

The only issue for England is that the form of opener Jason Roy. Jason Roy is a type of player who can decimate the opposition once he keeps going but unfortunately he has never got that form back. The opener has scored 51 runs in his past eight one day internationals. England are set to drop Roy and Jonny Bairstow lined up as his replacement.

Morgan on Baristow, ” Jonn is our next man in line. He is a very fine batsman. One thing he does exceptionally well is deal with no baggage. He comes in and wants to prove wrong everyone the whole time. It has been a huge attribute in him scoring runs when he has had a chance”.

Key players

Ben Stokes is the man for England in this tournament. He has scored 150 runs in 2 group stage matches including a match winning century against their arch rivals Australia. He has also taken 3 wickets from 3 matches played so far. Pakistan should be aware of the danger possessed by stokes.

Joe Root, Eoin Morgan & Alex Hales have all scored bunch of runs and possess quite a threat to Pakistan. As for as England’s bowling is concern in Mark wood, Liam Plunkett, Adil Rashid & Jake Ball they have a strong bowling unit to bundle out the opposition. Between them they have 22 wickets at an economy of 4.80.

Alex Hales
Joe Root
Eoin Morgan
Ben Stokes
Liam Plunkett
Mark Wood

Pakistan have always been a dark horse in the ICC Tournaments. They have recovered strongly after their 124 runs loss against arch-rivals India. They had defeated the No.1 world ranked team in South Africa by 19 runs(D/L method) thanks to the rain interruption. They have crossed the line against sri lanka by 3 wickets to set up clash with England

Fakhar Zaman

Opener Fakhar Zaman has been crucial for the Pakistan’s change of fortunes. The Pakistani opener have batted in a positive manner and created a platform for the middle-orders to set up the chase. His scores of 41 & 50 have beautifully set up Pakistani win contrast to Ahmed Shehzad who has dropped after scoring 12 against India.

Fearsome Bowling

Hasan Ali has been a major threat to the opposition scalping 7 wickets in 3 matches played so far. With the likes of Mohammad Amir & Junaid Khan who have taken 7 wickets between them at an economy of 4.75 they have controlled the ability of opposition to score freely. The spin-duo of Imad Wasim & Mohammad Hafeez have chipped in with crucial wickets in the middle overs.

Key players

Hasan Ali will be the trump card for Pakistan. Pakistan will be hoping Hasan Ali to provide the crucial breakthrough like he did it in earlier matches. Fakhar Zaman & Shoaib Malik are the other two key factors if Pakistan have to trump England.

Fakhar Zaman
Babar Azam
Shoaib Malik
Hasan Ali
Mohammad Amir
Junaid Khan

Possible Lineups

  1. Jonny Bairstow, 2. Alex Hales, 3. Joe Root, 4. Eoin Morgan, 5. Ben Stokes, 6. Jos Buttler,  7. Moeen Ali, 8. Adil Rashid, 9. Liam Plunkett, 10. Jake Ball, 10. Mark Wood

1. Azhar Ali, 2. Fakhar Zaman, 3. Babar Azam, 4. Shoiab Malik, 5. Mohammad Hafeez    6. Sarfraz Ahmed, 7. Imad Wasim, 8. Fakim Ashraf, 9.Mohammad Amir, 10. Junaid Khan, 11. Hasan Ali

Conclusion – Advantage England

England will start this match as a favorite as they have the crucial advantage in running between the wickets and fielding.

Was Wigan Athletics’ decision to sack Joyce & appoint Barrows – Justified?

Was the decision by latics to sack Joyce & to appoint his assistant as a interim manager justified?

Wigan Athletic have sacked Warren Joyce less than four months after he was appointed as the manager, with Graham Barrow to take over until the end of the season. Wigan have become the third club to fire their manager in week after Norwich City axed Alex Neil and Derby County dispensed  Steve McClaren.

Fans back David Sharpe

Wigan, lie at 23rd in the standing with the club four points adrift of safety with only nine fixtures remaining. Considering this form, it is justified enough to sack the former Man United manager less than four months in-charge of the club.

wigan vote.png

This was a great move by Sharpe and many fans have backed Sharpe in this decision. The appointment of Joyce successor was eagerly awaited by many latics fans. It is expected from the board of management to appoint someone who possess relegation experience to guide the club to safety. But the decision of board to appoint Barrow as the Interim manager till the end of the season, rises eyebrows and question the board’s decision to sack Joyce.

Question of logic?

If the chairman David Sharpe thinks that Warren Joyce cannot save Wigan Athletic from the drop, yes- he made the right decision to sack Joyce. But what makes David Sharpe & the board to think Graham Barrow is the right man to save the latics?

Barrow was working as a assistant coach under Joyce. He was an integral part of coaching team & if Joyce is responsible for what wigan has acheived today, Barrow should also take equal responsiblity. With the sack of Joyce, he was a failure as a assistant coach and by giving him the interim manager, the board have made a mistake.

So sacking Joyce – Justified?

It is very clear that the board have sacked Joyce without having a potential replacement. Now, they pay the price by appointing Graham Barrow till the end of season. This sack will demoralize the team and it can be seen very clearly from what had happened in the game against Aston Villa where Wigan lost 0-2.

Take Wigan’s relegation rival Blackburn Rovers for example. They had a poor run of results under Owen Coyle, the board decides to sack him and they have appointed Tony Mowbray. Since his appointment they have never lost in 7 league games until now & that is what an experienced manager can bring to a team.

So, with the appointment of Barrow, the club had clearly made a mistake. They have appointed Barrow as an interim manager & have assigned him a daunting task of keeping Wigan in the championship. Its a move that will simply have no progress at all. They are going to finish at the same 23rd position. So, I personally consider this sack on Joyce is unfair.  Wigan will be relegated and will play Championship League 1 at the next season.

Review – West Bromwich Albion vs Arsenal

At Hawthorns

The Game-Week 29 kicked off at the Hawthorns where West Bromwich Albion hosted Arsenal at 12.30 pm on Saturday. The bookmakers and the odds were in favour of Arsenal to win this fixture.

Team Line-ups

Arsenal starting XI

WBA starting XI

1st half Analysis

The match started by Arsenal kick and it was high intense clash with both the teams showing early sign of intent. It was the Baggies who drew the first blood through Dawson’s goal at the 12th min. Dawson rises above a host of Arsenal defenders to head the ball into the back of the net from Chadli’s corner.

It took only 3 minutes for the gunners to respond and it was their in-form star man Alexis Sanchez who level the scoring at the 15th minute. Sanchez receives the ball from the right, cuts inside and powers a volley beyond Foster from 8 yards.

Turning point

The crucial moment of the match came in 35th min when Arsenal goalie Petr Cech complained about a hamstring problem and Arsene Wenger was forced to sub Cech with the club’s 2nd choice goal keeper David Ospina.

The 1st half ended as 1-1 with Dawson & Sanchez sccoring for their respective teams.

2nd Half Analysis

Darren Fletcher restarts the game and they were attacking the Birmingham Road End. Rondon was subbed at 54th min and in came Robson-Kanu. With-in the minutes of stepping into the pitch, Robson-Kanu gave home side the lead. It was David Ospina’s fault that lead to the goal. Ospina failed to collect Chadli’s ball in and Robson-Kanu made the most of it as he scored the goal from 10 yards.

The Arsenal were chasing the game and in came super-sub Giroud for Theo Walcott at the 65th min. Arsenal forward Welbeck came close to level the scoring but the ball was slashed across the crossbar from a gooner corner with Arsenal trailing at 2-1. At the other end of the pitch it was Chadli who looked liike scoring when his shot was blocked on the line by Mustafi. Robson-Kanu tried to hit the ball from rebound, only for Ospina to save the shot.

It was Chadli in 74th min earned the corner for the Baggies and the shot was taken by McClean. It was met by Craig Dawson who scores through a brilliant header to score his 2nd and West Brom’s 3rd goal of the match.

The game was all but over for Arsenal. Although gunners enjoyed 77% of the possession they cannot find a way to break the baggies wall for the 2nd time. The Baggies played positively & defended the ball without any pressure. At the end, it was a deserved victory for Tony pulis & West Brom Albion.

Man of the Match

dawson mom

What it means for Wenger

For Arsene Wenger the pressure is mounting on him to leave Emirates at the end of the season. Arsenal fans were in a split mood where majority of the fans want Wenger to walk away after the current season is over, while some backed Wenger to stay. Arsenal fans demonstrated a protesting by flying a wenger out banner.

In-response to the #WeengerOut banner, an another banner was flyed out and it was carrying the backing for Arsene Wenger.

Arsene Wenger or Arsenal Wenger?

Over the years, the atmosphere is toxic at Emirates and the fans were protesting against Wenger’s regime. Arsene have done so much for the Arsenal and the Board of Management will leave it to Arsene Wenger to take the final call on his Emirates Career.

The Contenders to replace Karanka at Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough and Altior Karanka have parted company by a mutual consent. The struggling Teesside club who lie second-bottom of the Premier League and without a Premier League win in 2017 have confirmed his departure just 72 hours before they face Manchester United on Sunday.

Who will succeed Karanka

With the Assistant Manager Steve Agnew taking over first-team duties against Manchester United on Sunday we will take a look at the contenders for Karanka’s replacement.

Steve Mclaren

Steve Mclaren was sacked by Derby County recently but the timing of Altior Karanka’s sack may come as blessing in disguise for Mclaren. With Middlesbrough languish second bottom of the table, Steve Gibson knows he needs someone like Mclaren who has plenty of experience to steer the club away from relegation. Gibson knows well that it was Mclaren who led Boro to League Cup glory in 2004. Mclaren would love to return to the top flight of English  Football if a chance is given to him

Steve McClaren Mouth Open Newcastle United

Nigel Pearson

The other man who looks to give Mclaren a tough run is none other than Nigel Pearson. Pearson was sacked by Derby County after falling out with the owner. Nigel Pearson may have been out of job for months but he is still widely consider as a top manager, the man who changed the Leicester City’s fortunes. Like Mclaren, Pearson have fought many battles in the relegation and his experience might come in handy for owner Steve Gibson to save Middlesbrough.

Claudio Ranieri

Claudio Ranieri, the man behind the success of Leicester City being crowned as the Champions of England is a free agent after being sacked at controversial circumstances. Ranieri have worked across Europe’s most elite clubs but has a little experience when it comes to the relegation battles. Although Ranieri had kept Parma in Serie A a decade ago, the football has changed a lot over a decade.

Alan Pardew

The 55 year old Alan Pardew has been out of work since Palace sacked him in December. He is the manager with most experience among all the contenders. He has faced many relegation battles over the years at Reading, West Ham, Charlton, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace. He has been reportedly eager to get into the management and he is also linked with a vacancy at Norwich.

Steve Agnew

Steve Agnew was Altior Karanka’s assistant coach and he will in-charge of the club on Sunday’s clash against Manchester United. If Middlesbrough can come up with a draw or a win against Manchester United, then Steve Gibson would consider Steve Agnew as a real contender. Will Steve Agnew do a Craig Shakespeare at Leicester? Only time will provide the answer.

Ryan Giggs

Former Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs was strongly looked as a contender to replace Francesco Guidolin at Swansea but the swans had the other ideas and overlooked him. Whenever there is a managerial vacancy in the top flight, Giggs named will be linked by the bookmakers but he is yet to land a job. Giggs without any managerial experience, this will be a massive gamble if Steve Gibson appoints him to save Middlesbrough.

FA Cup Preview: Chelsea vs Manchester United

Chelsea set to take on Manchester United at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup Quarter-final. This will be Jose Mourinho’s second visit to Stamford Bridge after his bizarre sacking last october. Jose Mourinho’s first visit at Stamford Bridge ended up in a 4-0 loss and will be eyeing up for an revenge.

Image result for chelsea vs man utd

Team News

United will have to do it without inform striker Zlatan ibrahimovic who is set to serve his first of three match ban. United will also be without star strikers Rooney and Martial due to injury while the youngster Marcus Rashford was left behind due to illness.Without many senior forwards, Mourinho is expected to play Fellani at the center Forward with Mkhitaryan and Juan Mata in the nearest supporting role.

Antonio Conte has a fully-fit squad and is considering his options open. Chelsea captain John Terry has played in three  prior FA Cup rounds, but the defender’s place against United in not guaranteed.

United’s record at Bridge

United have set a dismal record against their FA Cup opponents. Chelsea have won 11 of their 20 previous meetings at the Bridge in all competitions, losing only two.

Review – Melbourne Stars vs Adelaide Strikers

Melbourne Stars vs Adelaide Strikers

Melbourne Stars hosted Adelaide strikers at MCG in what was a crucial match for both sides aiming to qualify for the finals.

Team News

Melbourne Stars have missed Maxwell, Adam Zampa & James Faulkner to the national duty and their replacement were Peter Handscomb who returned from national side, Gulbis and Liam Bowe.

Strikers too had lost some player like Travis Head and Stanlake while Chris Jordon missed the game due to injury. The replacement were fan favourite Tim Ludeman, Wes Agar and New Zealand leggy Ish Sodhi.

Adelaide Innings

David Hussey won the toss and opted to bowl first. The opening pair of Jack Weatherald and Ben Dunk started the innings positively. They got of to a reasonable start but could not continue the momentum as Weatherlad was one of the many victim’s picked by Scot Boland. Ben Ludeman joined Dunk and carried the innings forward. The young bowler Bowe picked the prize scalp of Dunk. In came, Striker’s captain Hodge but he too did not lost long as he fell for mere 17 runs as he was clean bowled by Boland.

The Next person to go was Ludeman who tried hitting  Boland for a maximum but endedup caught by Quiney. The big West Indian Kieran Pollard, known for his hard hitting fell cheaply for 16 runs as Adelaide strikers got 152 in the end. Scot Boland was the star men as he picked 4 for 30.

Melbourne Innings

Quiney and Wright went out to chase what was an easy target. Wright fell cheaply in the 4th over. One of clever move made by Hodge bringing Ben Dunk to bowl as a second choicebowler. The move paid off as he removes Wright. Next up was Quiney who has made quick-fire 41 of 17 balls. Pietersen and Handscomb tried to steady the innings but Handscomb was bowled by a beauty of delivery by Ish Sodhi.

Stonis and Hussey fell cheaply as Stars have lost half of the side for 84 runs. It was left to in-form Pietersen to finish the game but a untimely run-out saw stars lose Pietersen. As the momentum shift in favour of strikers it was Gulbis and Big Ben who rescued Stars by a unlikely parternship of 37 runs stand for 7th wicket which swung the match in favour of stars.

In the end, Big Ben finished the game off  with an unbeaten score of 32 runs that saw Melbourne Stars won by 2 wickets with 3 ball remaining.

What’s Next

Striker’s will face Melbourne Renegades on Jan 16 at Home while Stars face Perth Scorchers at WACA.

A 365 Day Project

Day 7_365

I really love looking at portraits, and really admire portrait photographers. In this day & age of digital photography, creating a decent black & white portrait means grasping some post processing methods, and this is what I am pursuing. There are so many different ways to create a B&W, this time I have used the channel mixer in PS. I like the outcome, however, clearly being a learner at this, I would appreciate any hints or tips people may have to offer.

This is my son, Ethan. He is usually moving so quick that getting a photo like this is impossible, so I took the opportunity to capture him.

Ethan: Nikon D70; f5.6; 1/320; ISO 200

A year into doing makeup full-time, I just noticed that there are more and more people that are getting into makeup artistry. So to set myself apart, I decided to do a bit of branding work for myself. And what brand doesn’t have its own logo? I wanted a logo that would reflect my personality, and would also instantly reflect the service that I’m offering. I actually had a sort of logo 2 years ago, which I just tweaked from my calling card design done by my friend Khai. This is how it looked like:

I really liked it before, but two years after I found it too… cute. If you saw my calling card but didn’t see me, you’d think I was some sort of high school kikay kid who knows how to do cool makeup. Not really the image I’m going after.

So I asked my good friend Jan (check out his works here), a former officemate who does great graphic design, to tweak it for me. I want something that would look professional, modern, but still fun. I also asked him to retain the dots/circles idea to represent colors in a palette. Lastly, I said maybe he could just use at most 2 colors, and the rest would be done in black/grayscale.

These were his first studies:

I liked how the dot of the “i” is in the empty space of “s”. He also got the silhouette of the girl from one of my makeup works.

I’m not feeling this second one too much…

These were all nice, though I was looking for something that’s a bit more horizontal so that I could easily insert the logo in calling cards, presentations, website, etc. So I asked Jan if maybe he could do more studies with a more horizontal orientation. Also, I liked the font of “Kris Bacani” in the third one that he did, so maybe he could develop that.

So here’s the second batch:

I asked a gay friend what he thinks of this 2nd logo. He said, “Teh, ‘pag yan yung ginawa mong logo mo para kang nagbebenta ng tsupon.” Hahaha! I guess he’s right. It’s cute and all, but it certainly looks like a logo for a company selling baby products =p

I like this third one, but my eyes seem to just focus on “Bacani” since it’s has the biggest font and it’s all caps.

Hmmm… I think this last one may be THE ONE. Though I think it’s still a bit too colorful. Perhaps my name should just be in grayscale?

PERFECT! I love it. It didn’t veer away too much from my initial logo, it just became more professional looking. It looks definitely more modern too. I think Jan and I did this for less than a week, I doubt it would be as fast if a complete stranger has done it for me. Thank you so much Jan Sanchez / Sanchez Creatives! I owe you makeup for your future bride (our ex-deal =p).

Up next, Project Level Up Part 2, my website! =)

New banner is up

If you had ANY idea how hard is was to create the new banner you would pay me money to look at it.  But it looks nice, right?  If only I could move the text higher – but I have to pay $30 a year to get that capability and I am not doing that.

So now the new, memory-friendly banner is finally up and I can bear to look at the blog without cringing.  Funny how I know we got through all this and I still only need to look at the old banner to get choked up.  Go figure.

Week 2 Reflection

Week two, well this was an experience if I’ve ever seen one!

I learnt quite a bit about Fitzroy and the community around it. It was the most fun I’ve had so far! We went around talking to members of the community (e.g Police Officer, John’s friend/ local Cafe Owner) and we got all sorts of views and opinions, but all mostly positive of course, because who doesn’t like they’re own community? There was only ONE negative part about the trail and that was when right at the end John shouted a drink for everyone and then it hit us that to pay for a drink for all 17 of us would be quite a expensive and we all felt guilty for ordering something.

The only other part of the week I remember was the Teamwork skill workshop, where we had to carry each other and the person being carried didn’t feel very safe to say the least. We also had  to build a tower out of newspapers which was unfairly won, because we weren’t allowed to tape our tower to the ceiling to keep it steady, but the winning group was allowed to tape it to the ground for exactly that.

All in all, it was a great experience and I’m looking forward to the surprises next week holds.

One thought on “Week 2 Reflection

  1. Hi David,

    It seems that week 2 provided you with a much more engaging experience of Galileo 🙂

    Don’t worry about John shouting you drinks – we will occasionally treat you and there’s no need to feel any sense of obligation to us!

    What did you learn about yourself in a team environment this week? What do you tend to contribute?

If I were to give you one word today, “fascinating” what is the first thing that comes to your mind.

Wonder, why all of a sudden am I talking about this 11 letter word? Wonder, what is it that has made me get into the things that have anything to do with the same.

For most of us, life has always been that one fascinating thing which has intrigued us, made us happy, made us sad, have been the cause of all sorts of emotions going in our minds.

And of the anatomical aspects, what has fascinated me the most is our ability to see and make sense out of things out there.

The process which starts from our retina going to the optical nerves to the brain, where we actually construct meaning from the things we see, has been well studied and documented.

Have always believed, that things we take for granted, as being coming naturally to us, have been the most difficult to comprehend.

And what better way to demonstrate the same, than by teaching an algorithm how to go about doing visual recognition.

Have you ever wondered, how a child would actually perceive things in his mind? If not, you will have to do so, in case you want to train your algorithm to do things similar to how a human brain does.

You will have to get to the very basics of the various wavelengths being detected by the receptors and being given a meaning through the very fundamentals of NLP.

Everything ranging from emotions to mindset, from perceptions to language, starts from the information we receive through our senses.

Be it love, hate, intelligence, the one thing that remains common in the development of all is how comprehensively we receive and perceive the information gained from our senses.

Which makes me believe the very essence of life is framed through the lenses of our receptors.

After all, it’s about making sense, which is immensely fascinating in itself. Isn’t it?

Sooo…how about that MOBOs last night

Last night saw the 17th Music of Black Origin awards which took place in Liverpool. Emeli Sande took home 3 awards, Rita Ora won Best Newcomer, the beautiful Rachel Kerr won Best Gospel Act, the handsome loudmouth D’banj won Best African Act and Misha B brought the house down with a great performance (as usual). Oh yeah and let’s not forget that lovely Waterfalls performance by Stooshe (It’s still sad to see T-Boz and Chilli without Left Eye).

However, and most importantly, is there any point in calling it Music of Black origin Awards anymore? I just don’t understand how Kanya King runs the show. Who chooses the nominees? How are the categories chosen? Whose great idea was it to mix bashment into the Best Reggae category? I just don’t understand.

With that said, the performances were better than they have been these past few years. I honestly didn’t know that the MOBOs only celebrated commercially successful, mainstream artists that do pop music. Oh okay Music of Black Origin awards.

And  how do they choose the presenters? I’ve always liked Miquita, she really knows how to ask a lot of questions and she ain’t never bothered nobody, but Adam Deacon…just stop it!
