    Should have stayed in Steamboat! Grand County was not good. Decided to head further east. Craftsbury went from 30″ at the stake to 6″ in about a week. Lake Placid, Trapp and Middlebury are closed “indefinitely”. The net result is that I’m back in NC on the bike. Looks like you finally have winter again.

    Do you need me to send that broken Swix Triac to you? The break was actually about 19″ from bottom on the right pole. I’ve taken pictures and examined the break. Hard to say if it was my ski that hit it, the 4-5″ of rotten snow or a combination of the two that snapped it. No hurry as I’ve hung up skis for the season. However, if there is a chance that they wouldn’t be warrantied, I’ll buy that other set of 155’s.

    • Murray Selleck says:

      Hi Kyle,
      Yes, we received a nice dose of winter. The Lake Catamount Marathon on Sunday was ideal. Cold with a great groom. No worries on the Triac. The warranty process is in the works and I’ll be back in touch. See you soon. Murray

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the ‘grr! argh!’ tag.

Some weeks just come up to you and punch you in the face. I still don’t know what happened, but I know I have a lot of planning to do.

It’s been a wacky up/down week. The main issue I need to solve (or in Type-A-Personality-Speak: Organize, organize, organize), is how to better manage my now bulging out-patient schedule. (Which, of course, immediately defies it’s own immensity by having half of my patients no-show today. But…that’s probably a rant for another post. My fellow out-patient SLPs can relate, I’m sure.)

I have a few patients who require additional set-up and break-down time and I am struggling to work this into my schedule without throwing off other parts of my schedule that are already established.  Plus I need to find some very simple hands-on craft activities and learn All The Baby Signs. ALL OF THEM.

Did I mention this week punched me in the face? Time to spend part of the weekend brainstorm ideas. And then maybe blogging about them.

So I had been working on an entirely different post this week, but decided to opt for a completely different piece because the other one seemed unpolished and unfinished.

I might have mentioned I work at a hospital where I sometimes work in the acute setting and sometimes in out-patient care. Some days I jump back and forth between both. Some days, it’s almost as though I don’t get anything accomplished in either place. On the other hand, the idea of sitting still in either setting puts my type-A personality on edge.

I’ve been doing this over a year now, and while it has gotten easier to switch between the two (switch populations, switch ages, switch my brain), I am still searching for that balance. If I really love something (and I love SLPing) or if I really want to succeed at something (and I really, really want to be a kickass SLP) I throw myself into it. In a sometimes-kind-of unhealthy way. (In fact, I should add to my goals: take some frigging vacation even when you don’t have anywhere to go.  Ahem. Anyway.)

In that way, it’s probably a good thing, especially this early in my career, that I have to keep hopping back and forth between many very different SLP-type things. I can obsess about twenty different types things all at the same time!  I mean, I can work hard towards balancing my time among all the different things I do.

Now I realize I am not a special snowflake who spends their SLPing jumping around between adults, children, swallowing, voice, evaluations, treatment, phonological disorders, playing Simon Says  to giving families the facts about NPO versus signing a waiver given the risks of aspiration. What do you guys do for balance? Does it get easier? Does it get harder? Do you think you provide the best care possible to so many different types of patients? (I know this is something I worry about all the time. I can’t be an expert at everything, can I?) Do you ever feel like banging your head against the wall? Oh, wait. I guess that’s all of us.

This week has been a frustrating week. To put it mildly. (Which is why there wasn’t a post last week. Sorry.)  So, I will take time to talk about something that has been frustrating me recently in my out-patient therapy.

It’s where my history in child care and my odd obsession with environmental modifications collide.

(Short disclaimer: I am pretty satisfied with the set-up at my out-patient clinic. This is a general frustration that I don’t have any suggestions to fix it. So I don’t really expect it to change, nor do I necessarily require it to change. It’s just something I’ve been thinking about.)

All day long, while I’m at out-patient, I dream of turning each individual session into Montessori-style language pre-school that lasts for under an hour. Yep, I’m clearly living in a fantasy world. Well, and to be honest, not all my therapy needs to be language pre-school style.  I still shudder to recall trying to do articulation therapy in the language pre-school at grad school.

But for very young children who are expressively and/or receptively delayed, or children who are on the autism spectrum, I can’t imagine a better way to address these goals. A small kitchen for us to play with and a table to sit and eat at. A real fridge we could walk to, open, and choose food or drink. An outdoor space with a playground where we could move around and practice verbs, or functional requests the child may use at school or at home. Hell, I wish we could go to the grocery store and practice learning the names of common fruits and vegetables that way.

I do try to come up with specific activities to give my parents to practice language skills at home, but I can never be sure how it’s going. Plus, speaking from personal experience, I always learned more when my graduate supervisor would demonstrate the technique than necessarily trying to tell me how to do it. (Guess it’s time to somehow institute a Hanen program.)

So then, is the very way an out-patient clinic structured make it too inflexible to accommodate all types of patients? Of course, we all tailor our goals and our approaches to our patients, but is there a certain rigidity that can’t be overcome in an out-patient setting? (And let’s not even get into how insurance probably would not support any slightly unorthodox approach to treatment.) All I know is that I have a few patients where I find the confines of the out-patient setting deeply frustrating. Time to get creative.

Franchise Sector Shows Job Growth for February, Says ADP Report

ADP report 2016 job growth adp report franchise sector

U.S. private sector franchises continue to drive employment, according to the February 2016 ADP National Franchise Report, produced by human resources management solutions provider ADP in conjunction with Moody’s Analytics.

The report found that franchise sector 2016 job growth in the U.S. was up by 18,500 in February. While the numbers fell shy of those reported by ADP in January, when franchise jobs grew by 20,000, they still reflected the impact franchisees have in creating employment opportunities.

“Though franchise employment growth declined a bit from January, accommodations rebounded into positive territory replacing most of the jobs lost in that sector last month,” says Ahu Yildirmaz, vice president and head of the ADP Research Institute.

Industries contributing the highest increases include food retailers (up 0.4 percent from January), restaurants and accommodations (each up 0.3 percent from January), real estate (up 0.2 percent from January) and business services (up 0.1 percent from January). Auto parts and dealers showed zero growth.

ADP report 2016 job growth adp report franchise sector

“Restaurants continued as the biggest employment driver among franchises,” Yildirmaz says, based on the actual number of employees hired for the month, a total of 14,400.

While the numbers shortfall between February and January could be considered negligible, both pale in comparison to December 2015, when ADP reported the creation of 48,600 new jobs. Restaurants, alone, accounted for 32,800 jobs, followed by the Auto Parts and Dealers sector, with 8,400.

“Franchise employment growth finished strong in December adding the second most jobs of any month in 2015,” Yildirmaz said in a press statement (PDF) responding to the report. “Restaurants had their second biggest month of the year and accounted for two-thirds of the jobs added this month.”

Despite the recent slowdown, strong consumer spending will be the catalyst for accelerated growth in 2016, with franchise businesses expected to grow at rates exceeding non-franchise business growth, according to the International Franchise Association (IFA) Franchise Business Outlook: 2016.

IFA anticipates that the food and hospitality industry will see the greatest gains (65 percent), followed by the services sector (29 percent), and the real estate and automotive industries (both at 8 percent).

“We are forecasting that for the sixth consecutive year, franchise businesses will grow at rates that exceed the economy-wide growth of industries where franchises are concentrated,” said IFA President and CEO Robert Cresanti. “Franchise businesses are showing tremendous capability to provide new jobs for working families and new businesses for first-time business owners across all sectors in local communities.”

Life has been moving very quickly in the past two weeks between work and family. I had a trip to Florida right before the inauguration. The following week I had a few health related appointments (nothing to worry about, routine things like an eye exam — turns out I need readers for my daily computer work). Of course, mixed in there has been the rush of being a father, with a son in cub scouts, and basketball. I got violently sick (Norovirus) towards the tail end of last week and didn’t really recover until Monday of this week.

I’ve been trying to keep with a cadence of at least one post per week, but I haven’t been able to bring myself to write since the inauguration of President Trump. It’s hard to believe its only been twelve days since the inauguration and only nine since we were introduced to the idea of “alternative facts.” Everything feels like it’s accelerated over the past two weeks, and the chaos with which the administration steeps its tea hasn’t helped much either. The truth is, I’ve wanted to write, but not about sobriety. I’ve wanted to write about politics, but I am trying not to do it here. I am considering writing about it elsewhere but I don’t know if I’ve got the energy for it.

My energy has been sapped — sucked out of me. With the whirlwind of travel, my son’s activities, my wife’s activities, illness, and just life in general, I have not made many meetings in January. In fact, I think I only made it to three meetings in the whole month.

Now, I’m keenly aware that this is very likely a bad thing.

But I am also keenly aware that (at least prior to the shock and awe of the last two weeks) I actually was feeling better and more comfortable in my own skin than I have in a long time. I firmly believe that part of this was likely due to the fact that I wasn’t listening to the negative talk that sometimes overwhelms meetings.

And yet…

With the overwhelming machine gun fire of news over the last two weeks, I’ve known that I needed desperately to get to a meeting. I could feel the tension starting to fill up in my body. I was starting to lose my temper over things that weren’t a big deal. The cortisol and adrenaline, pumping through my veins was taking their toll. My emotional sobriety was shot.

So, I went to a meeting on Monday night. And it was good. I saw friends who I hadn’t seen in a while. I got to share about a powerful experience that happened as a result of this blog — an experience that lead to a great sense of healing for me and one that I want desperately to write about, but cannot because it would break another’s anonymity.

Yesterday, I spoke with a friend in recovery who like me is struggling with the news of late. We spoke of having faith, faith in the process, faith in our democracy. We spoke of how stunning things have been for us, and how it’s hard to know how to respond. And we spoke of the fact that this may be a turning point in our lives, perhaps a turning point in the country, and that perhaps, there may be a better dialogue which results — that maybe good can come out of what we perceive as so horribly wrong, so violently against our shared values as a nation.

I don’t know if that will happen. I’d like to thing so.

What I do know, is that in these tough times, I need the connection that the program offers more than ever. I know that getting out of my head, getting out of the political morass, getting off the social media, and actually seeing and talking with other people who struggle with this brain disease called addiction, is key to my survival.

And so, I’ll keep coming back.

  1. The next four years will be difficult for those of us who simply know “right from wrong”. I read the headlines and try to not get sucked in. I tolerate. Some days its the best I can do. Recognizing that you were feeling better in your own skin before life became chaotic is such a blessing. It dials us in to taking care of ourselves, physically and mentally. We alcoholics tend to put everyone else first, even things that are happening in this world and then we become last. Then we suffer, and then that is when I recite the serenity prayer. Sometimes I have to say “and the wisdom to know the difference” over and over. Glad you have decided to “keep coming back”. its worth it and yes I still believe that goodness will prevail!

    1. Thanks for reminding me that I am not alone. It is a blessing to be more fully present and aware of my emotional state – we can’t manage what we can’t measure after all.

  2. You and me both, brother. I can’t tell you what our connection meant last night. Just someone perceiving I’m losing it a bit and reaching out. I think you know exactly what it means though! It’s the cure. I need to write about that call, as you have. I’m back at work today so i haven’t had the time to process it all. But, I will.

    The connections of the program, of the posse, these connections keep me alive. I don’t doubt it.

  3. I’ve been struggling a lot too. I’ve never felt so much anxiety in my life. The future feels so uncertain but I try to remember it is out of my control and just do the things I can, even when they feel so small and pointless. I agree that connection helps, though I find I just want someone to tell me it’s all going to be ok, and most people I trust enough to reach out to don’t feel that way right now. So I’m not getting the answer I want and that can make me want to retreat more. Getting out of my head and focusing on others is really the only thing that helps. And definitely staying away from facebook as much as possible, since it sends me into a tailspin. Sending you peace and strength. We will get through this 🙂

  4. February 2nd 2017!
    I keep coming back too Damien. My stubborn streak pays off as dogged perseverance & commiment to life free from active addiction – no matter what today.
    The American political landscape has ruptured with fear mongering nationalist hate groups & neo-fascists. This appears to a backlash for our system being primarily run by special interest groups and corporations for decades. Its horrible and heart breaking AND i beieve it will ultimately fail badly! We seem to be governing by nightmarish pendulum swings of trial and error rather than the proven principles our country was founded upon? I believe we are in an extreme time of crisis that demands more openness, transparency, equality, & freedom on a global scale.
    The arc of history has to be dragged in the right direction sometimes. This is one of those times.
    I’m hopeful #we collectively learn an invaluable lesson from these tragic times.
    Glad you are alive and in recovery. Our children need ethical principled parents NOW more than ever. They will live in the world we leave them. I want that to be a much better world.
    Hugz&Love my friend!

  6. Hi Damien!!
    I am with you on the state of affairs in our country!
    My hubs is trying to keep me calm.
    I am trying to spend less time watching tv, or even reading the newspaper.
    FB is awful, and I have family on both sides.
    I am sorry you have been sick!
    I haven’t taken any action, like making 5 phone calls a day, and then I feel guilty that all I do is complain.
    But today, I read blogs, going to yoga, going to the theater with hubs tonight.
    That is a good day.
    Here’s my latest post..I hope you can read it!

Until the Bitter End

I recently came across a podcast that poses an interesting question: how far should we try to live in the face of terminal illness or potentially fatal treatments?

Part of what is fascinating in the topic is how much doctor’s answers different from non-doctors. In a nutshell: doctors do not want many of the treatments and interventions that non-doctors want.

I’m not sure what to make of this. It might be that doctors know how much pointless suffering exists in trying to prolong life, it might also be the case that doctors see the suffering so frequently that they’ve developed a strong adverse feeling towards the idea of life prolongation.

What seems to be the case regardless of the doctor/non-doctor difference, is that people have different preferences in regards to how long they want to live their life and what interventions they want to have. Indeed people should be able to determine how long they want to live. And this leads us to the topic of euthanasia. There is much to say, but I’ll be brief and paraphrase John Perry (a philosopher at Stanford):

 The Beatles may be playing a song for 4 minutes, and suddenly notice that the drummer Ringo is not doing well and decide to cut the song short instead of going 5 minutes. This way, they’ll have a good 4 minutes song instead of bad 5 minutes song.

People should be free to have 4 minute songs out of their lives if they want. People should be able to prolong treatment as far as they want, or to refuse it as early as they want. And they should be able to ask for the recording to stop if they are no longer enjoying their song. It’s their song after all.

Developed by the Soviet Union, the bomb was originally designed to have a yield of about 100 megatons of TNT (420 PJ); however, the bomb yield was reduced to 50 megatons in order to reduce "NUCLEAR FALLOUT" (Oh, shit!). This attempt was successful, as it was one of the cleanest (relative to its yield) nuclear bombs ever detonated. Only one bomb of this type was ever built and it was tested on October 30, 1961, in the Novaya Zemlya archipelago.

Religion and the Reality of Climate Change

By QR Blog Editor 12-11-2012

The religious implications of climate change are becoming evermore clear, as the topic makes its way into mainstream America.

The Huffington Post reports:

Indeed, what role do religion and theology play in the accelerating conversation about climate change? This has been a banner year for extreme weather events -- from severe drought in the American Midwest to the wildfire siege in Colorado to the "Frankenstorm" of Hurricane Sandy fueled by a warming Atlantic Ocean -- which have helped the reality of climate change to register on the consciousness of most people.

Web Exclusive: Extended Interview with Vincent G. Harding

On April 4, 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave one of the most important speeches in American history. It’s referred to as “the Riverside speech” in reference to King delivering the speech at Riverside Church in New York City. It’s also called “Breaking the Silence” or “Beyond Vietnam.” In it he decisively and publicly expands his ministry to include opposition to the U.S. war against Vietnam. He was vilified for this move by his “friends” as well as his detractors. The Riverside speech, which names the sickness eating the American soul as “the giant triplets of racism, extreme materialism, and militarism,” was a watershed moment in American history. A year later, to the day, Dr. King was assassinated.

King’s Riverside speech draws heavily from a draft by civil rights leader and historian Dr. Vincent G. Harding that Harding had written over his Christmas vacation in 1966. King made a few minor changes but essentially delivered Harding’s original text. In preparation for the 40th anniversary of King’s address, Sojourners interviewed Dr. Harding on the history and context of the speech and what it means for America today. Dr. Harding was interviewed by Sojourners associate editor Rose Marie Berger in December 2006.

SOJOURNERS: Do you mind just offering a prayer for us, just as we begin.

VINCENT G. HARDING: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Please speak to us and through us and with us. And help us to know what that speaking means for us. Thank you. Amen.

SOJOURNERS: My first questions are about the historical context of the “Beyond Vietnam” speech and your place in that context. My memory is that in ’64 or ’65 you had gone back north to Evanston, IL, and in ’66 or so you came back to Atlanta to Spelman College. Is that right?

Veen Observatory Visitors’ Night for July 14

1am EDT (7/15) Update: A successful public event was had. Many thanks to those members of the public who attended, and also to local television stations WZZM TV13 and WXMI TV17 for their continuing support of the Astronomical Association and it’s observatory by publicizing their events.

5pm EDT Update: The Observatory will be open this evening. The skies are clearing now.

Unlike two weeks ago, it’s not certain that there will be clear skies for tonight’s public night at the Veen Observatory. Some meteorologists are saying it will clear up, some are not. our staff weather people haven’t looked into it enough yet to make a decision. So the Go/No Go announcement will be postponed until 7.00pm at the latest.

If we are open, here’s the particulars:

Time: 9.30pm – Midnight
Admission: $3 – Adults, $2 – kids 17 and under, under 5 free

Full information on Visitors’ Nights can be found on the Grand Rapids Amateur Astronomical Association website – graaa.org. Just click on the Visitors’ Night link in the menu.

There you will find a map showing directions to the observatory, and a FAQ about visitors’ nights. On the main page of the site, click on the OPEN sign, and you will be taken to a page with particulars about the specific night detailing what objects will be featured through the telescopes.

For tonight, the planet Jupiter will be the main target. Along with the solar system’s largest planet, we will show off some of the finest objects of deep space as well, including nebulas and star clusters. And who knows, perhaps a comet and an asteroid. The sky’s the limit.

If you go out to the observatory, we’d love to hear your thoughts about the experience. You can leave comments here, or drop an email to graaa @ graaa.org.

About Griff

My passion is antebellum history and I particularly enjoy primary sources such as letters and diaries.

Greetings Fellow Historians!

This site was created to stash old letters that were spared from obscurity so that descendants of those who wrote the letters may benefit in their historical or genealogical research. I do not wish to profit from these letters and it’s my intention to eventually donate any originals that I own to an appropriate county historical society/museum. A significant number of these letters were never owned by me; they were transcribed with the permission of the owner prior to their being auctioned on ebay and posted on this site after the sale.

If you find these letters useful in any way, I’d love to hear from you.

Additionally, if you have any old letters or diaries you’d like to have transcribed and preserved, I’d love to help you. Please visit my website for more information.

Messy Studio

Heyo, this is Cecil. I did a bit of painting tonight. It can be tough to get started but once it happens, the ‘zone’ comes easily. I’m slowly getting back to making it a consistent behavior.

(click to embiggen)

So, this is what my studio looks like right now – pretty disastrous, but cozy. The painting has been in progress for way too long, but should be finished soon.

Hey guys, just mostly finished this illustration. Feel free to crit, comment or whatever.

It illustrates which sub-types of Cholinergic receptors are used by various organs.

The figure, spinal chord, and brain was  rendered in maya 2008 with a ramp shader that becomes transparent as the surface comes perpendicular to the camera; gives it a nice ghosty look. I didn’t model the male figure or the spinal chord; bought them awhile ago from turbosquid.com. I did, however, model the brain and brainstem.

All the other organs I painted in photoshop with an intuos 2 wacom tablet.

All the labeling was done in Illustrator.

Stay tuned for 3d animations of landscape stuff composited with makeshift green screen footage!

-peace out- Alex

I just got my Etsy page up and running – see it here at http://www.etsy.com/shop/courtneynoonan

I know people who have done well on here, and I really like the community of artists better than the vastness of Ebay. It was really easy to set up, 20 cents to list an item, and you can write little paragraphs about each item. My basic plan is to keep the pieces I do as part of a series together for shows, and then sell the pieces that are somewhat unrelated on Etsy.

If you have an Etsy page or something similar, post it in a comment!

Slow Cooker Bacon Mac and Cheese

Creamy, cheesy macaroni made in the slow cooker with bits of salty, smoky bacon flavor. It’s the ultimate comfort food and so easy to make. No need to cook the pasta first. How awesome is that?

Slow Cooker Bacon Mac and Cheese

I had never made mac and cheese in a slow cooker before I tried Trisha Yearwood’s Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese. I liked it so much I’ve been playing around with other crockpot mac and cheese recipes.

Slow Cooker Bacon Mac and Cheese

And the only way mac and cheese gets better is with bacon right?

I actually added jalapeno too to jazz it up even more but the jalapeno is totally optional. I find it’s best to cook the bacon first. Otherwise it will have an unappealing texture and color. It does lose its crispiness if you put it in the crockpot to cook with the macaroni, but it really helps get that bacon flavor we all love so much into the mac and cheese.

Mac and Cheese with bacon made in a crock pot

(These are newer pictures made using elbow macaroni and no jalapenos)

Mac and Cheese with bacon made in the crock pot.

Alternately you could just reserve the bacon and sprinkle it on top of the cooked macaroni. I sautéed some diced jalapeno just briefly in the bacon fat and then added it to the crockpot along with uncooked fusilli, cheddar and monterey jack cheese, 2 eggs, whole milk, evaporated milk, a little butter, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

I turned the heat to HIGH for 30 minutes and then to LOW for 2 1/2 hours. I find that if you keep it at HIGH too long, it burns around the edges. But cooking it on HIGH for a little while really helps shorten the cooking time.

At the end of the cooking time, the pasta is cooked just right and it has absorbed most of the liquid creating a thick, rich macaroni and cheese.

  1. I made this today for my Thanksgiving pot luck at work. It turned out amazing. Not only was it the first dish to empty, but everyone was asking for the recipe, and asking that I make a double batch next time! I love crock pot dishes for work luncheons because they can cook on my desk and be served hot! Thanks so much for this recipe.

  2. I made this tonight–very simple to assemble and very tasty! Skipped the jalapeno (afraid it’d be too spicy for the kids), but I put in some finely diced white onion instead and then sprinkled individual servings w/ chopped scallions. It was a hit with all 4 of us! Thank you for the recipe.

  3. I made this recipe just a couple of days ago! In the future, I’ll be sure to add more noodles. I enjoyed it a lot, except that I prefer a creamier texture. The dish turned out a little bit goopy… and it was not good when reheated.

  4. I love homemade mac and cheese and the fact that you made this in the crockpot is fantastic! I love the bacon in this too, bacon makes everything better. Pinning this one!

  5. Now this is something that needs to happen soon! Mac and cheese is a favorite of ours, and this sounds beyond easy to make. And bacon makes everything better!

  6. Omg, this looks so good! What a perfect comfort food recipe! I haven’t tried mac and cheese in a slow cooker yet, but I’ve been meaning to. Love the addition of bacon and jalapenos! 🙂

  7. Wow, I love that you made this in a slow cooker, Christin! Especially since you don’t have to cook the pasta first! Sounds amazing with the jalapeno and bacon!

  8. My slow-cooker is my best friend throughout the fall months when life is so hectic and busy. I will definitely have to try this awesome mac! My family will eat just about any mac, but I’m pretty sure they would inhale it if I snuck bacon in there! Looks awesome, Christin. 🙂

Monthly Archives: October 2016

Well, it’s October. So much for regular posting in the summer. My summer didn’t offer me the time I thought it would. Yes,  had the time to sit and blog, but there were so many other things going on that simply were more important. I may never have gotten around to executing my summer plans for my blog, but I want to get into regular blogging again so here I am, four months later. 🙂 Don’t worry. I haven’t completely forgotten about this!

Life Updates

A week after finals, my family and I went on vacation to southern Wyoming to visit family. It was a lot of fun and I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to go with them. A week after we got home, I was off again, but this time to stay. I moved 10 hours away with my boyfriend to live with him (and temporarily his family). It’s definitely been an adventure. And the biggest reason I didn’t blog this summer. I’ve had a hard time adjusting to this new life, but I’m happy here and have mostly adjusted (I think). He’s introduced me to several new games, so I didn’t play Wizard101 as much as I thought I would–too busy enjoying other new games too! Some new favorites include Undertale, Minecraft, The Sims3, Dragomon Hunter, and Dark Souls. He’s also introduced me to D&D and Betrayal in the House on the Hill (board game).

School started again two weeks ago. I’m taking one online class through the college I had been attending prior to moving. So far the work load has been light. Hopefully it’ll stay that way so I can work on the blog projects I REALLY do want to do. I’m also taking two different introduction to traditional animation classes with a retired Disney animator. We’re working on anthropomorphic characters in one of the classes, so you can expect to find me spending a fair amount of time in the Spiral with a sketchbook, drawing NPCs–especially in Marleybone, since the character I’m currently working on is a dog.

Wizard101 Updates

Cam and I did about 50 runs of Tartarus on our four (balance, storm, ice, & fire) and each character ended up with at least one full set of Hades gear–most got both sets! We’ve finished Azteca and started Khrysalis. I’d like to get our four through the end before the next world comes out, but since it’ll probably be the fall/winter update, I doubt we will. We’re eager to reach 100 and farm Darkmoor. Only 5 levels to go!

Blog Updates

I’m still working on Reagent Maps. They’re harder to create than I initially thought. Much more time consuming. And I get bored putting them together really quick. I’ll post them as I finish, but they’ll take time. I have discovered that I need to be in the right mood to work on them or else I get bored after a single realm. Each map section (depending on the size of the map) takes between 15-20 realm loops to make sure I found ever spawn spot.

I still plan to work on Housing Items Made Easy, mostly because it’s something I want to have access too and because Wizard101CentralWiki freezes too easily on my laptop. As much as I love the database, it’s useless on my computer. 😦

I mentioned above that Cam and I did around 50 runs of Tartarus this summer. The majority of those runs took place within about 2 weeks. We would average 2-4 runs a night, each run taking less than an hour. I have plans to put together a guide of how we farmed the dungeon. When we start farming Darkmoor, I plan on putting another guide for it together, though both dungeons are run extremely similarly.

And as for Dorm Rooms with Emma…well it’s something I do want to do, I’m just not sure if I like the formatting of my first two. I’m not sure how I want to run the series yet, but I’ll figure it out. You can expect some form of it sometime fairly soon…I think. I should probably stop promising projects happening “soon”. I haven’t been very good about following up…

So I’m back. I haven’t forgotten about the blog, it’s just been put off. Hopefully, I’ll start being better about writing again. This really is a lot of fun and something I honestly do more for myself than for anyone else, even though knowing other people will occasionally view my blog is nice too!

Cagewriter - Mixed Martial Arts

The Sun is reporting that former UFC light heavyweight champ Forrest Griffin may miss most of 2009 because of the broken hand he suffered in his loss at UFC 92 to Rashad Evans. Pins were placed in the left hand to help the healing process. The British tabloid is quoting UFC sources as saying Griffin won't be back until September at the earliest.

The UFC's light heavyweight roster is deep but Griffin's loss does hurt. He was likely being targeted for co-main event status in July or August (suspended by NSAC until June 27). It could be a blessing in disguise for guys like Wanderlei Silva, Chuck Liddell and Shogun Rua. With Griffin out of the way and a big win in the next fight they could all quickly be in the mix to face the Rashad Evans-Quinton Jackson winner.

When the UFC bought Japan's Pride Fighting organzation, Rua was considered the hottest commodity. The 27-year-old fell out of the mix after suffering a loss to Griffin that was sandwiched between several bad injuries over the last two years. If healthy, Rua could quickly put himself in position for a title shot. He destroyed Jackson in a 2005 fight. Rua says his jiu-jitsu and striking will eventually take out light heavyweight champ Rashad Evans.

EASY Christmas Candy Cane Soap & Holder Tutorial
DIY Christmas Candy-Cane Napkin and Mint Holder

EASY Christmas Candy Cane Soap & Holder Tutorial

By Starr Durrant

This easy to make candy cane soap & candy can soap holder is a great hit at Christmas!It’s a super simple and affordable project and you will love how this soap feels on your skin!

Candy Can Soap

What You Need
A shallow rectangular pan – minimum depth ½”  6″ x 9″ works good or individual small pans
6 bars of white hand soap (base for soap)
Candy canes (3 canes per soap stand) and extra’s to crush up
No stick cooking spray
Red Food Coloring
Plastic Wrap
Ribbon & Bows or Decorative Accent to put on Ribbon (to decorate soap bars)
Round Christmas mints (for top of soap holder)
Glue gun

Step One – Prepare your ingredients.

Lightly spray your pan or use plastic wrap to cover the bottom and edges of the pan to prevent soap from sticking.

Put a handful of candy canes into a baggie and crush. You want finely crushed little pieces, not crushed so much it’s all powder but crushed enough there aren’t large chunks.

Candy Cane Crush
Cut up soap bars into 6 to 8 chunks each

Step Two – Making The Soap

Using a deep plastic or glass bowl – place 5 or 6 chunks of soap in the bowl and place in the microwave for on high for 1 minute. The soap will inflate like candy floss as it heats – when it has expanded over the top of the bowl, remove it.

Next, add in a few tablespoons of candy cane and few generous squirts of red food coloring and mix.

Mix it up
Quickly scoop it out and press it down into one end of the pan until it is ½” thick. Repeat – the process until the pan is filled. It is important to press it down firmly into the pan. Don’t try to put a thin layer across the entire pan and then add to it to make it thicker – it works best to add 1/2” thick section by section. When the pan is full of soap that is ½’ thick – leave it for 10 minutes until soap is hardened again. Use a knife to separate the soap from the side of the pan and flip the pan over to remove the soap.  If you used individual pans just pop them out.

IMG_1204 - Copy

Cut soap into bars approximately 1.5”x 3.5 x .5”. If you have made the bars too thick to just slice some off – they need to be narrow enough to fit into the curve of the candy-cane soap holder. Wrap each bar in saran wrap and add some ribbon.

soap slices

Step Three – Making A Soap Holder

Take 3 candy canes (do not remove plastic wrap on the candy canes) – depending on the size of the candy-cane cut off the bottom so that the height of each candy cane is approximately 5”. Keep the pieces you cut off. Place the pieces in a tripod shape with the curved part on the bottom. Make sure the curved part of the candy canes are turned outwards – the front two balanced so that the soap can slide in. Glue all three together at the top with hot glue and then place a Christmas candy or decoration on top to hide the glue.

Next glue one of the pieces you cut off as a support bar between the front two candy canes – you may have to cut it to the right size (about ¾ of an inch) and then glue a longer piece from the back candy cane to the center of the support bar (approx. 2 inches). Remember to leave the plastic wrap on the candy canes.

Wait until you try this soap – you and those you share it with will love it! The candy can pieces create a gentle exfoliate that melts instantly away leaving your skin tingling and  silky smooth.

I do love tea I’ve drank tea for almost years and get into the tea culture. Don’t take me wrong but I think what Teavana is selling too us is more like a corporate thing, I don’t buy their speech of organic and healthy tea, is like Coca-Cola it taste good but is toxic and definitely not good to your body.

Orca Named a Gartner Cool Vendor in DevOps, 2017

AUSTIN, Texas, May 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Orca (orcaconfig.com), a leading innovator in software configuration management and release automation, today announced it has been named a 2017 Cool Vendor in DevOps by Gartner, Inc. The annual Cool Vendor report evaluates emerging vendors that provide innovative, impactful and intriguing technologies.

According to the report, “This year’s Cool Vendors recognize that the scope of DevOps tools must evolve and innovate. In many enterprises, growth in DevOps adoption is frenetic, fueled by rising business demands for speed and agility.”

For IT operations, DevOps, middleware teams and application owners in complex environments, Orca error-proofs and automates time-consuming configuration management and application release workflows in an intuitive, unified solution. At just a glance of Orca’s intuitive Configuration Heat Map TM, users immediately detect application, middleware, database and operating system configuration drift – major sources of compliance issues, performance problems and even security vulnerabilities. Beyond the ability to detect drift, teams also use Orca to easily correct drift on-the-fly and to schedule, approve and pre-validate routine configuration changes and deployments.

Out of the Box Integrations. Easy to Use Automations.

Before Orca, IT Operations teams typically had to rely on a combination of manual processes, technical debt-laden homegrown automations, point solutions and scripting-centric, open source tools that require teams of Ruby developers. Appealing to DevOps teams’ need for speed and to IT Ops’ need for governance, control and audit reporting, Orca’s end to end automation of configuration management and application deployment relies on a highly intuitive interface and pre-built, pre-tested integrations to key middleware, databases, operating systems and ITSMs.

Orca does not require teams to invest time and money learning new scripting or declarative languages. But operators have the flexibility of importing their existing processes for workflow automation.

“Our customers are choosing Orca because they want central, secure change control and faster software releases but without requiring new skills and long learning curves for their teams,” said Timothy Wall, Orca CEO. “We are honored to be recognized by Gartner as a Cool Vendor in DevOps for 2017 and will continue driving DevOps innovation for our customers.”

So You Think You Don't Have Any Talent

Speaking of talent I always thought I didn’t have any.  About the only thing different about me was that I could do backbends and cartwheels.  My tap dancing was a little better than average, and I could do high kicks like the Rocketts.  The greatest compliment I ever had from my spouse was when he said that I was like a BMW—not outstanding on anything but above average in everything.

The reason I value my hubby’s compliment is that compared to him I’m a dufus—you name it and he can do it, or figure out some clever way to get it done.  He can go out, earn the bacon, and then come home, and fry it up in a pan.  He is the go to guy.  If anyone wants an idea for anything, just ask him for one, and he will come up with 20 or more ideas.

But I believe God gives talents to everyone.  Some receive more talents than others. If you work with the talents you have, God may give you more.  That’s what I’m hoping for anyway.  After coming down with fibromyalgia, and after much prayer and research, I decided I could work on my prayer life, and on becoming a writer.

As far as opportunities to grow in my prayer life--- God put on Fern Nichols heart to start Moms in Touch, now moms in Prayer, --- and I have been praying with moms groups for over 20 years as a result. At my old church 2 of the ladies started meeting one morning a week to pray for the church and our country.  So wherever I attend church I’ll find a prayer group or start one because of the example of these ladies.

God has answered many of my prayers in wonderful and interesting ways.

  •       Chris miraculously found me an outfit to wear to our sons wedding.
  •       We amazingly ran into Dale Chihuly on his way to lunch when we visited his workshop.
  •       God made our church grow—not in the way we thought it would but in another good way.
  •       I found a wonderful prayer partner every time we moved.
  •       We have wonderful kids and grandkids.

I could list more and more but I will stop here and tell you about running into Dale Chihuly.  Speaking of those with outstanding talents I was privileged to have a tour of Dale Chihuly boathouse in Seattle and his workshop in Ballard.  We just happened to be near the glass area when Dale walked through on his way to lunch.  Our tour guide and good neighbor took this picture of us.

So keep using those talents because you have them!  May God multiply them!

[video] Iran President Ahmadinejad blames US Government for 9/11

Say what you want but this is felt by alot more people that just Ahmadinejad, he just has the heart to speak on it on a world stage. Listen to this video and you will hear him lay out why he thinks the US government is guilty of knowing alot more about the terrible act of 9/11 then what we have been told.

Vodpod videos no longer available.
via Huff Post

(AP) UNITED NATIONS — The U.S. delegation walked out of the U.N. speech of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday after he said some in the world have speculated that Americans were actually behind the Sept. 11 terror attacks, staged in an attempt to assure Israel’s survival.

He did not explain the logic of that statement that was made as he attacked the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Ahmadinejad said there were three theories about the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks:

_ That a “powerful and complex terrorist group” penetrated U.S. intelligence and defenses.

_ “That some segments within the U.S. government orchestrated the attack to reverse the declining American economy and its grips on the Middle East in order also to save the Zionist regime. The majority of the American people as well as other nations and politicians agree with this view.”

The Americans stood and walked out without listening to the third theory that the attack was the work of “a terrorist group but the American government supported and took advantage of the situation.”

Strawberry Thief Liberty Emery dress

I haven’t done any sewing for a few weeks now, what with being in London for work and all, but I did make this beautiful (if I do say so myself) dress before I went. I don’t really know what to say about this dress, except that it’s another Emery pattern, in a Liberty Strawberry Thief print. I really love my Liberty print!

Despite making quite a few of these dresses now, this Emery still turned out differently, even though I followed the same instructions. I’m not sure whether I was a little bit tighter with the seam allowances but this one was bigger in the waist and bodice than any of my previous attempts. Hmmmm.

I’m also a massive fan of the length of the Emery dress, but the last one was just a little bit too long. So I shortened this one quite a bit and now the length is perfect for me.

I loved working with the Strawberry Thief fabric and I loved that it had quite a straight print as it made me really take notice of how I cut it and of making each part match up. I’m really pleased with how it turned out.

The only thing that’s slightly annoying me is that I made a facing for the neckline. Although I love facings generally, this one seems a bit bulky in the front and needs pressing down. My initial plan for this dress was to make matching bias binding for the neckline and arms, but I cut out the facing before remembering my plan and didn’t really want the beautiful fabric to go to waste. I think, in the future, I may take it out and try the bias binding option.

Like the other Liberty fabric, this one too is very thin but I’m sure I’ll get a lot of wear out of this dress. Plus, it’s Strawberry Thief! Who doesn’t like birds picking fruit from a tree on their clothes?

An Emery for a wedding

Anyone who is anyone in the sewing world has attempted an Emery, haven’t they? Yep, it’s one of those classic dresses that everyone goes mad for and I, of course, lag way behind (like I do with 90s TV shows too by the way – so at least there’s a pattern).

Anyway, the story behind this dress is that my good friend Phoebe got married last month and I decided to set myself the challenge of making myself a dress with only about a week to spare (great planning there!). I didn’t want to use any of my tried and tested dress patterns and I knew I wanted to use a Liberty fabric, so enter months of debating over which pattern to use and telling everyone I knew about my plan to make a dress, and I had finally decided on the Emery.

In the end I think I had about four days to cut and trace the pattern, make the muslin and sew the final version. But I managed it and the dress is a firm favourite now. I think the Emery, although suitable for a wedding, is also wearable in a casual way. I’ve been adding a cardigan and flats and wearing it that way ever since.

The fabric is Liberty’s Tatum, which I pored over during my last visit to London but ended up buying online in the end. It is quite thin and creases a bit, but is a really good quality tana lawn. I love the colourway as it is summery, floral and perfect for a wedding, but I’m definitely tempted by this colourway too.

I now know why everyone raves about the Emery. It’s such a lovely pattern to work with and so versatile too. I’m longing to try out the longer sleeved version ready for the autumn and I already have plans for more Emeries.

I bought my Emery pattern at The Village Haberdashery and my Liberty fabric at Shaukat.

A pinch of mustard: a completed elastic skirt

A little while ago I picked up some remnants of a silky type fabric from a local craft shop for £2.00. Immediately I fell in love with the fabric, which was a lovely mustard yellow colour and I had lots of ideas of what I could make out of it. I wanted to make a skirt, but I also dreamt of using the leftovers to make a large, drapey scarf. Unfortunately, there wasn’t that much of the fabric (and none left in the shop) and so I had to settle for making only one thing – the skirt.

I followed my own really easy tutorial and completed it pretty quickly. As I wanted quite a full skirt, the amount of fabric I had (I think it was about 1 1/2 – 2 metres) was perfect and the silky texture gave  it a nice drape. I would have liked to have made the scarf too, but if I ever get bored of the skirt, I’ll just unpick it and sew the scarf.

Have you ever grabbed any bargain fabric? I’d love to know what you bought. Let me know in the comments.

The skirt goes really well with navy blues

I’ve mentioned before about how useful charity shops are for sourcing fabric and cheap clothing. Today I went on a fashion binge in one of my local shops. I hadn’t been for ages, so it was a nice treat for my meagre budget and I ended up buying quite a lot for a small amount of money.

Firstly, I bought two vintage floral pillowcases, in different patterns. Together, these were only £1 and I’m planning to make elastic skirts out of them. Once I’ve made one, I’ll put the DIY on the blog.

The pillowcases that I picked up for £1

I also bought a very nice purple stripy top, originally from H&M, a yellow floral Dorothy Perkins skirt that I’ve been wanting for ages and a Peter Pan collared polka dot dress.

This stripy top was originally from H&M

The Dorothy Perkins skirt

The Peter Pan collared dress I bought from a charity shop

Unfortunately, as is often the case when buying things from charity shops, the skirt is too big. But you have to take the bad with the good and I’ll probably just sell it on eBay or use the fabric to make something small.

Easy DIYs: How to customise a pair of shorts

Have you ever bought something that isn’t quite to your taste but you haven’t wanted to waste it? So have I. A few months ago I bought a pair of shorts from a jumble sale, but when I brought them home, they weren’t exactly flattering.

This is how they used to look

Although they only cost me £1 and I could have used the fabric, as it was Laura Ashley, I really didn’t want to waste them. The shorts were so easy to customise that you could potentially do it while you’re asleep, so instead of giving you a tutorial, I’m just going to tell you what I did. I folded the shorts up, pinned them in place at the sides and sewed. That’s it! The only thing I’d advise you though, if you do this, is to try on the shorts when you fold or roll them up and pin them while you’re wearing them (but watch out for your legs), as it’ll help you to judge whether the sides are equal in length and how short you want to make them. I folded mine three times, but they are a long pair of shorts and I wanted them short, so it really depends on what your taste is.

An unflattering pair of shorts can be made into something wearable with a little craftiness

And here is the finished product

So, you see, it is as easy as pie and the shorts can be customised in a matter of minutes. I actually made mine this morning and wore them straightaway, spending the day relaxing in the sun and drinking copious amounts of ice cream soda.

Oxfam Boutique, Cardiff

The Oxfam sign, created out of records

Last night, I went to the Oxfam Boutique on St Mary’s Street, where I attended their weekly Stitch and Bitch event.  Although not many people turned up, I had a great time and even got to learn a new craft.  Last night’s event concentrated on knitting for beginners, which some people argue is an important skill at this time.

The purpose of going along to the event will be unveiled in my soon to be posted feature, but it’s a great way to contribute to society, whilst creating something that you can be proud of.  So, if you’re ever at a loose end on a Thursday night, head down to the Oxfam Boutique and pick up a new skill.

Hour of Code - FREE lesson plan!

One of the largest road blocks to having K-5 teachers implement computer programming skills is TIME! I have often heard my teachers saying "I just can't add more more thing to the day."

That's why I think that the success of incorporating computer science skills INTO the curriculum is essential! Currently, I am looking at the CCSS and the learning progressions. Using Scratch ( - a FREE website, I am working on creating lessons that are aligned to the CCSS in ELA and math.

Please feel free to use the FREE resources and worksheets for the Hour Of code week - December 9th thru December 15th!  The worksheets take the Kindergarten student through the process of creating a holiday card through various screen shots.

Service facilities - service and process analysis - Assignment Example

High school
Author : ashlyjacobs
Pages 2 (502 words)

From the above mind map, it appears that on a typical day, like Monday, a patient was likely to spend more than 1 hour and 45 minutes in the queues while waiting to receive attention from the on-duty MD. A lot of time was wasted while the patient waited on the rack for the nurse…

Extract of sample
Service facilities - service and process analysis

The clinic uses the first come first serve basis to transform incoming patients to into served customers. The clinic is likely to be using the pull systems in its production process to transform incoming patients into served customers. In a typical clinical production process, tasks and operations are linked together into a series of production flow-charts without the patients having to waste time or delay while waiting to receive attention from caregivers. In the value stream indicated above, the clinic seems to be using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method that links the processes into a pull system. When the patient arrives at the clinic, s/he is given a form to fill personal information and describe the ailment, the form is then time stamped and placed on a tray. After completing the form, the clerk attaches it to the patient file and arranged in a stack of files based on the stamped time. Subsequently, when a nurse finishes with the current patient, the next patient is selected from the stack of files in the order of arrangement. The goal of the FIFO pull system is to ensure that the patients waiting in the queue for services remain in the system and are served in the order in which they arrived the FIFO system. The FIFO system limits the number of patients who use the service based on the time and resources available. In an ideal situation, once the FIFO system is full, the first process of admission is stopped in order to avoid overwhelming the nurse practitioner in the diagnosis and treatment of the patients. However, this is difficult in this scenario, given that the patients walk into the clinics without appointments and reservations.
The main factors that patients view as critical-to-quality (CTQ) when they visit the clinic include satisfaction with the treatment they receive from the hospital, high nursing response rate in serving the patient and time spend in the queues while waiting to receive treatment from practicing nurse or on duty MD. These ...

On a completely random note of sublime geekery…

Being the kind of person who’s rarely found anywhere without a notebook of some description (usually stashed in a bag or a pocket somewhere) — I really want one of these!

Just in case anyone’s confused — it’s River Song’s book from the Doctor Who episodes Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead.

Yeah, I’m a geek.
(But I’m a stylish geek!)

On a related note, I wouldn’t mind one of these either… But looking at the price, the less ornate one I already have will probably suffice for now!

Does a "sh int" on the ASA show full duplex on the interface? It could be a duplex mismatch if the ASA is set to auto sensing.

hey guys, since i last posted i have switched over to a new ISP...this ISP's incoming connection is terminated with a fiber connector and coming in on a fiber port of a switch...from a configured port on that switch a crossover cable is used to connect to an ethernet port on the ASA firewall, all the necessary configs were made on the firewall and when these changes were made the internet connection worked excellent for about a week and now we are experiencing the same intermittent loss in internet connectivity as with the first ISP with temporary loss for periods in time, some pages load rapidly and others dont load at all, we have changed cables, checked and crosschecked configs, checked our dns and we are no more closer to a solution than we were with the first ISP, and it appears the issue is goin downhill every day. Can anyone offer some suggestions? Thanks

turns out it was a combo of cable, duplex settings and misconfig on the ISP's switch which they corrected...
