ROSES AND A BEE – TEXTURES
Tuesday was election day. I'm sure pretty much everyone everywhere knows that. We voted. Then, I took pictures. Not a lot of pictures. A few around town. It shows no election-related activity. None, at all. Which was worrying at the time, and more understandable now. The lack of enthusiasm was unusual, something I hadn't previously experienced.
The texture is the velvet softness of roses, the sharpness of thorns … and a bee.
These are probably the last roses of 2016 … and likely, the final bee. I was glad to see a bee. There have not been nearly enough of them recently.
I hear that there are anti-Trump protests all over the country in the big cities. Well, gee, talk about a dollar short and a day late. How many of these marchers went and voted, when it mattered? Do they now think that these protests are going to make him quit? Seriously? All it's going to do it piss him off.
I am still seeking intelligent life on Earth, but I'm beginning to seriously wonder if I'll ever find it.
JOY IN WRIGLEYVILLE – RICH PASCHALL
11/10/2016 02/16/2017 / Rich Paschall	/ 13 Comments
Mudville, too – Rich Paschall, Sunday Night Blog
The outlook wasn't brilliant for the Mudville Nine that day;
the score stood four to two, with but one inning more to play.
And then when Cooney died at first, and Barrows did the same,
a sickly silence fell upon the patrons of the game.
A straggling few got up to go in deep despair. The rest
clung to that hope which springs eternal in the human breast;
they thought, if only Casey could get but a whack at that –
they'd put up even money, now, with Casey at the bat.

Perhaps you are familiar with the famous baseball poem by Ernest Thayer. It was first published in 1888. For Chicago Cubs fans it seemed almost that long since their last World Series Championship. The Cubs won in 1907 and 1908. Fans had been waiting ever since for the North Siders to win again.
But Flynn preceded Casey, as did also Jimmy Blake,
and the former was a lulu and the latter was a fake,
so upon that stricken multitude grim melancholy sat,
for there seemed but little chance of Casey's getting to the bat.
No matter how good the team or even how big a lead the Cubs may have had during a regular season, they always seemed to strike out when they were needed the most. I recalled vividly the crushed hopes of Cub fans in 1969 when the Cubs had such a big lead on September 2, no one thought they could possibly miss. Then they lost 17 of 25 games and the hated New York Mets went on a winning streak to steal away the pennant. Like this year's Cubs' team, the 1969 players just seemed too good to lose.
But Flynn let drive a single, to the wonderment of all,
and Blake, the much despised, tore the cover off the ball;
and when the dust had lifted, and the men saw what had occurred,
there was Jimmy safe at second and Flynn a-hugging third.
Then from five thousand throats and more there rose a lusty yell;
it rumbled through the valley, it rattled in the dell;
it knocked upon the mountain and recoiled upon the flat,
for Casey, mighty Casey, was advancing to the bat.
The last time the Cubs made it to the World Series was 1945. Their team, just as all the others in major league baseball, had many replacement players. Most of the young and able-bodied men of the country were fighting in World War II. It was at game 4 in Wrigley Field that the now infamous "curse" was placed on the team by tavern owner Billy Sianis. It seems Billy bought two box seat tickets to the game, one for himself and one for his goat. The goat was let in, but after a rain fell on the crowd, the goat did not smell too good. Cubs owner and chewing gum magnate, P K Wrigley, had Sianis and his goat removed from Wrigley Field. On the way out, Sianis put a curse on the team which became a legendary story all around town.
There was ease in Casey's manner as he stepped into his place;
there was pride in Casey's bearing and a smile on Casey's face.
And when, responding to the cheers, he lightly doffed his hat,
no stranger in the crowd could doubt 'twas Casey at the bat.
Ten thousand eyes were on him as he rubbed his hands with dirt;
five thousand tongues applauded when he wiped them on his shirt.
Then while the writhing pitcher ground the ball into his hip,
defiance gleamed in Casey's eye, a sneer curled Casey's lip.
As the years wore on and some very good teams failed to bring any glory to town, local fans began to blame the Cub's bad luck on Billy Goat. Over the years, the Cubs even let the Sianis family bring a goat to Wrigley Field to help lift the curse, but it never worked. The Cubs found ways to lose.
And now the leather-covered sphere came hurtling through the air,
and Casey stood a-watching it in haughty grandeur there.
Close by the sturdy batsman the ball unheeded sped–
"That ain't my style," said Casey. "Strike one," the umpire said.
From the benches, black with people, there went up a muffled roar,
like the beating of the storm-waves on a stern and distant shore.
"Kill him! Kill the umpire!" shouted someone on the stand;
and it's likely they'd have killed him had not Casey raised his hand.
The Cubs held a record of futility no other team could claim. When they last won the World Series, they were not even in Wrigley Field yet. The ballpark opened in 1914. Pictures of Chicago in 1908 show horse drawn carts on the streets. Now we go to the games by bus and by "L" train. Those who live on the north side of Chicago know not to drive to the park.
1908 Giants vs. Cubs
With a smile of Christian charity great Casey's visage shone;
he stilled the rising tumult; he bade the game go on;
he signaled to the pitcher, and once more the spheroid flew;
but Casey still ignored it, and the umpire said: "Strike two."
"Fraud!" cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered fraud;
but one scornful look from Casey and the audience was awed.
They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain,
and they knew that Casey wouldn't let that ball go by again.
The second oldest baseball park in existence (Marilyn and Garry will tell you which one is older) had never been home to a World Series champion. With a team that looked better than the Hall of Fame rich 1969 edition, this seemed to be the year the Cubs would bring home the trophy.
With the Cubs down 3 games to one in the Series, it looked bad, but our heroes battled back. Then in the 9th inning of game 7, the team lost its lead and the rains came. But that story did not end there.
If you don't know the end of the poem, you can click the link that follows. Our story ended differently, this time. I am sure you heard about it.
Yes, there is joy in Wrigleyville. Mighty Casey hit that ball and knocked it right out of the park.
Read the entire poem here: "Casey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic Sung in the Year 1888," Ernest Thayer, The Daily Examiner, June 3, 1888. Or, here, where it is dedicated to Garry, a lifelong fan of America's Pastime: FOR GARRY ON THE OCCASION OF HIS BIRTHDAY … CASEY AT THE BAT.
WHICH WAY ALONG THE INTERSTATE – GARRY ARMSTRONG
11/10/2016 11/09/2016 / Garry Armstrong	/ 18 Comments
Traveling to New York and back, I stopped to take some pictures. Since the little rest area was next to the interstate, well, this just seemed the right place for them.
CHANGE. BIGLY.
Some of us really were looking and listening. Although all the liberal publications were saying Hillary Clinton would win big, I was hearing other voices. Michael Moore, to name one with whom you might be familiar, was saying the opposite. So were other important analysts — all issuing warnings that it was not going to be so easy. There were many things that could go wrong. Not only had the fat lady not sung, the concert hadn't even begun and the orchestra was just tuning their instruments. Too early to pop the corks.
Even when we say "What could possibly go wrong?" which means we really do know that things always go wrong, regardless of whatever plans you made, it's rare that absolutely everything goes wrong at the same time.
That is what happened for Hillary Clinton's campaign. Who's fault was it? Hers, certainly. The FBI? Absolutely. The Democratic and Republican establishments' unwillingness hear the angry voices in coal country and the rust belt. The people who neither Democrats or Republicans have been able to help for the past 30 years have felt abandoned. They have a point, but there's a huge question whether or not there's much to be done. No one can turn back the clock to the glory days of American manufacturing because that was substantially based on a postwar Europe in smoking ruins who, of necessity, bought their "stuff" from us.
You aren't going to bring back the coal industry. Oh, maybe a little will be revived, but those miners need to learn new skills, like the fishermen of New England who have lost their livelihood as fisheries closed due to persistent, relentless, over-fishing.
We have voted badly before and can do it again. We have yet to plumb the true depths to which we can sink.
Change happens and sometimes, no one is to blame. The world keep turning. Crying and shaking ones fists at the sky while howling "Stop the world! I want to get off!" is futile and pathetic.
A very big change happened yesterday. How much we will we personally, as individuals, be affected? It depends on too many different variables to make an educated guess much less a prediction. In any case, big changes to law and legislation don't happen overnight.
The remnant of Bernat Mills. A reminder of how things can change.
Many voters who got Trump into office are going to have a bad case of buyer's remorse when, in the not-too-distant future they realize there won't be a wall. The mines aren't coming back. America's manufacturing base is not coming back any more than the empty mills in the Blackstone Valley will ever again transform cotton and wool into cloth. Sometimes, when it's over, it's over.
Moreover, they will discover that as much as the man supposedly makes the office, the office of the president will remake Trump.
This isn't a toy job. By the time President Trump realizes what he's gotten into, he won't be the same guy. Reality has harder edges than TV reality shows.
The presidency changes those who take office. Always. Which way it will go this time, we can't know. I'm pretty sure the candidate doesn't know either. It's going to take time to sort it out. Determine who the power players will be. Who will populate the Trump cabinet. And who will be on the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, back in the deep blue Commonwealth of Massachusetts, we didn't vote for Trump. We did legalize marijuana and vote to protect farm animals from cruel treatment. Yay us.


I hate being in the heat, but love a good California desert getaway for some reason. On my first vacation on my job, I went to Palm Springs. During this long weekend, we spontaneously booked a night at Holiday House, a boutique hotel at the center of town, and it was such a great little break. We stayed in their smallest room type - "Good" - but it was still spacious with a comfy king sized bed. From clean white tiles to a mini Jeff Koons, the room has really tasteful and modern decor. Toiletries? No other than one of my favorite brands Malin+Goetz. It's obvious that a lot of thought was put into the details of every corner.
A desert getaway in Palm Springs wouldn't be complete without a pool, of course! Holiday House is not a particularly big property, but it has an awesome pool right in the middle, easily accessible from every room. Breakfast is included in the morning and can be enjoyed poolside or in the lounge outside.
Everything in the hotel is decorated white and blue, which really drew me in and it happens to matches my new dress! I wore a Vince polka dot pleated dress to dinner and got some snaps of it before heading out. It's one of the most flowy dresses ever and I just kept wanting to twirl. I paired it with a super affordable pair of sandals from Target.


TrainDR started as a father/son project as a way to find a joint project for us to work on. The site is focused on curating the wealth of train knowledge from Bill's head through an organized approach. First we wanted to focus on bringing high quality content, diagrams, and historical information on American Flyer Trains. Long term we will cover Lionel and others. Next we wanted to provide amateurs and enthusiasts quality information, manuals, and reference materials for toy trains. With a great deal of this content complete, we are moving on to the next phase of the project.
Phase II of the project is to add a collecting functionality. For over 60 years Bill has struggled to organize, catalog, index, and track his collection. Our collection tracking tool is designed to make that much easier. Next we wanted to add a better train community auction site than the generic EBAY style sites. Finally, we wanted to begin taking various components of the site and turning them into educational books, videos, and repair tools so that we may inspire future generations of train collectors and record the history of what exists now.
TrainDR provides you unique collection and selling features - upload train pictures, track values and create an inventory. Want to sell? Put your toys for auction with just a click. We bring history and key information of Gilbert American Flyer at your fingertips.
Thanks for subscribing! Please verify your email from the verification mail sent to complete the process.

Gilbert American Flyer Crossing Gates were introduced in the pre war 3/16's product line from 1938 to 1941. Many of the parts that were in inventory when toy production was stopped for the war were saved and then used in the post war products. The first crossing gate introduced in the post war period was the 591 which continued the prewar 591 design but with the wiring adapted to the newly introduced two rail track system.
When Gilbert acquired American Flyer in 1938, they introduced Gilbert designed accessories to compliment the train line. The first Gilbert American Flyer design bridges used Gilbert Erector Set Gilbert AF 1st Bridgeparts. The migration of parts went the other way as well. The house at the top of an American Flyer signal tower became the Erector Set house.
The first American Flyer Set produced also came with track, an uncoupler, and a transformer. The "T" in the set number indicated that a transformer was included. The set was cataloged in 1948 and 1949 and several un-cataloged versions also exist. 1948 versions should have the brass coupler weights and the 1949 versions should have black coupler weights.

At last, a female fixture as a late night host, Samatha Bee #queenbee
Funny lady Samantha Bee makes her solo late night debut in 2016 (Photo: Facebook
After decades of male late nights hosts with the exception one, Chelsea Handler, finally comes a female funny lady with an awesome last name Bee, as in Samantha Bee.
The former Daily Show funny gal Samantha Bee is gearing up for her new late-night show for 'TBS' which is set to air in 2016. She shared some tips on her journey to the top with 'Marie Claire.'
My Big Break
"I was about two steps away from giving up on comedy and acting completely when I got hired by the Daily Show in 2003. I enjoyed my audition. I was like, This is the ultimate audition. I've done the best job that I'm physically capable of doing, and if I don't get the job, then I'm not made for this business. And then everything changed."
What I Learned from 'The Daily Show'
"If you provide a hot lunch for your staff, they'll be yours forever. Also, you should know what people's aspirations are and try to help them achieve their goals. For example, if you're hiring someone to be a researcher, and what they really want to be is totally different, they'll work so much better if they know they have a chance of achieving their goal. It's really important to harvest people's creativity."
What I'm Psyched For
"I loved working on The Daily Show, but it's really exciting to follow my own vision. I always loved Jon Stewart's vision of things, but I think I can broaden it a bit. I'm just excited to be the boss."
Best Career Advice
"Act like you know what you're doing. It completely says everything to me. You can't be too self-effacing in front of other people."
Early in My Career, I Wish Someone Had Told Me
"That it is okay to be ambitious. It took me a really long time to learn how to be ambitious."

One last Essence poem for Jane Dougherty's daily challenge. Adieu…adieu!
Essence #30 for Jane Dougherty's daily Essence Poem Challenge.
Day 24's Essence for Jane Dougherty's Challenge is dressed in white…again. Winter is not finished with us yet. Another tantrum expected today. I shall be heading out for milk and bread soon…I'm kidding of course. There are a few other things on my shopping list as Saturday is my go to market day. I truly dread having to mingle with the bread and milk fiends. At any rate, bad weather is the good news for today…while orange is off golfing our children will be marching in the streets for their lives. Spring snow is a dreary diversion from the madness, but also a sobering reminder of a bitter chill that refuses to leave.
Essence #19 for Jane Dougherty's Daily Essence Poem Challenge. The medians on my way to work are lined in a sea of white blooms. I love the contrast of white on black branches…even if they make me sneeze!

Ussy-sur-Marne is an ancient farming town on the Marne River, a 45-minute train ride east from Paris, France. With a nine-centuries-old church at its heart and stone walls dating back to the time of Christ, Ussy puts Annapolis' idea of a historic town into perspective.
Moe Hanson Delaitre, portrait and figure painter, and over the last few years, street artist inspired by the graffiti of Paris, is an American expatriate. She grew up in Upstate New York, where her interest in art began early. With other artists in the family, she never questioned her own path as an artist. In the early 1980s, she moved to the Annapolis area, where she became a key member of the artistic community. While still living in Annapolis, Delaitre met her future husband, Jean-François, at a wedding in Southern France. "It was love at first sight, and it changed both of our lives, radically, on the spot." After seven years of traveling between the States and France with older daughter Bessie Turner, son Jack Turner, and now-teenage daughter Ella, the family moved to France permanently in 2009. Delaitre maintains close connections in the States with friends, family, and Annapolis' art community, returning at least twice a year to visit. Bessie and Jack now both live in Annapolis.
Delaitre lives on an operating farm on property that has been in her husband's family for generations. This is a place where a vegetable garden is a given, providing rows of tomatoes, greens, and winter squash, as well as flowers grown just for beauty. Stroll out the back of the property, and one can walk for miles along rolling, bucolic farmland, hedgerows, tree breaks, and streams. The attitude about wandering on the property of others is more relaxed there than in the States, and it feels as if one might walk forever. The open skies can shift from sunny to cloudy to bruise-colored and stormy fairly quickly. As one walks back toward the Delaitre property, the view is dominated by three large silo-type buildings, dark green, with sloping, gently pointed roofs. Inside the Delaitre home, one finds the classic beauty of a rustic, 500-year-old farmhouse, with exposed timbers and eccentric winding staircases, and filled with homey touches, contemporary art, and tall rubber boots.
After moving to Annapolis, Delaitre began to study under Baltimore artist David Zuccarini. He belonged to a lineage of painters known as the Baltimore Realists and taught the principles of Maroger—an Old Masters technique whereby a medium is used to build thin, translucent skins of oil paint to render a lush, lifelike quality, the recipe of which was developed by artist and conservator Jacques Maroger. After ten years, Zuccarini pushed his apprentice out of the nest. "He told me it was time to do or die," she says. Although Delaitre hasn't spoken to her former teacher in years, she says, "I do think of him every day, I do still hear his words in my head when I try to bend a shadow."
While studying with Zuccarini, Delaitre maintained a studio residency at Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts in Annapolis, where she worked until 2002. "It was heaven at Maryland Hall, back in those days," she says, recalling the sense of community. "Every studio was full." She describes how the artists would pool their resources, throwing dance parties to raise money when the facility needed electrical upgrades or other improvements.
Delaitre's early work contains nods to her formal background in the use of form, color, composition, and symbolic imagery. Pastel compositions are rendered in incredibly tight detail, with richness, darkness, and saturated color rarely seen with the medium. Her older, commissioned portraits often reveal a twist that gives them a contemporary edge, such as an unexpected figure peering around a corner from down a long dark hallway, adding mystery to the work's narrative, as the main subject dominates the foreground, posing with her house pets and flanked by pictures of horses hung on the walls.
"Her subjects were always specifically posed, placed in a specific setting, with small details that only hold significance with the individual or family in the painting [for example, a family's beloved horses appearing on the wall in the background of Kristen Pratt at Wolf Run, 2003]" says Delaitre's son, who is an accomplished photographer. "I think this attention to detail has influenced my photography, and I always look for small details that go unnoticed by the majority of viewers—details that hold a special significance if you know where to look."
While in Annapolis, Delaitre built a vast clientele, becoming a sought-after portraitist. She formed relationships with local artists, galleries, and small businesses, and is still represented locally by Katherine Burke's Annapolis Collection Gallery. Her works are in numerous permanent public and private collections, including the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, the US Naval Academy, and the University of Maryland's Dental Museum. They have also appeared on magazine and book covers such as National Geographic and for Miramax-Hyperion publishing. In 2007, she was invited to exhibit in the Florence Biennale in Italy. The American University of Paris gave her her first solo exhibit in France in 2014, and she is represented in Paris by Galerie Martine Moisan. In December 2018, she had a dual-gallery opening at the Annapolis Collection Gallery and ArtFarm, a local multimedia art space, on the same night, just a couple of storefronts apart; her edgier work was displayed at ArtFarm while her more conventional portraits were shown at the Annapolis Collection Gallery.
In 2013, another body of Delaitre's work made its way from Ussy-sur-Marne to Annapolis. L'Art du Nu Francais (The Art of the French Nude) consisted of 33 figure paintings of women from her French village and was exhibited at 49 West Coffeehouse, Winebar & Gallery. Delaitre had met the women around town, at her daughter's school, and spoke with them about posing for her in her studio, located adjacent to the family home on the farm. She had all of the women assume the same pose, reclining on their side, looking away from the viewer. The figure forms a diagonal within the composition, with an emphasis drawn to the swell of their buttocks, the roundness treated with special care of color and highlights. She asked the women to imagine floating over the rolling fields surrounding their village. In talking and working with these women, she felt herself becoming more integrated with the community she now calls home.
Delaitre's most recent portraits are only "traditional" at first glance. Since embracing an obsession with street art, she began incorporating more contemporary methods and materials into her repertoire, including spray paint, seed cartons, farming equipment containers, and meticulously cut stencils. "They make strangely comfortable partners with the traditional portrait," she expresses in a blog post. "The dirty, often oil-stained cartons have gotten me to loosen my realist grip and free up my inner art student."
The results of her spray-painted portraits on cardboard are astonishing, managing to appear at first as hyperrealistic charcoal drawings or traditional grisaille oil paintings. Only on closer inspection can the viewer realize the imperfect spatter of aerosol and the dented corrugated surface of the cartons. "It's understandable to see hyperrealistic aerosol portraits on a monumental street art scale, but to see them executed on a smaller scale—it took me a while to wrap my mind around what turns out to be a very obsessive process. Just to create one eye or lip, she has to create so many different stencils," says fellow portrait artist Jeff Huntington. "She's using new materials to speak an old language."
A series of stencil art depicting a young Coco Chanel in profile has become a well-known motif in Delaitre's work, and it opened her up to the world of street art. As a novice in this particular genre, she has received a warm welcome and generous help from other urban artists. Although Parisian culture is more accepting of graffiti and street art than is her former home of Annapolis, she still gets a rush from creating pieces within seconds in the urban landscape of Paris, in the dark of night, in danger of being caught.
There comes a time in an artist's life when, having spent so many years exploring a subject, acquiring skills and muscle memory, and creating one's own unique art history, a new springtime of creativity breaks open the work from the inside. Such seems to be the case with Delaitre's series "The Four Seasons," which explodes with patterns, textures, a mix of stylization and naturalism, and with markings that evoke both contemporary graffiti and classical gestures, creating a dual vocabulary all her own. Female figures serve as iconic metaphors for winter, spring, summer, and fall. Among these representations of the seasons, a recurring subject in Delaitre's work over the last three decades, Mother Nature, has been reborn. In this incarnation, she is a bountifully breasted woman in a beret, a bra, black crinolines, and red and white striped leg warmers, with birds balanced on her fingers. The painting is titled Mother Nature is a French Chick. The master is forever a student. █

This past week I started teaching a course about strategy and the CEO to 40 MBA students at Babson College in Wellesley, Mass. One of our topics was the CEO's role in creating shareholder value.
These tests are used by investors to decide two broad questions: Is the venture targeting a market that's now small but expected to get big fast? Is the entrepreneur a great CEO?
Operating in a market poised to explode with growth. If your startup is pursuing a market that's already big, it will face lots of other rivals. And that means the venture capital firms will be competing with other such firms that have already invested in the market, thereby raising startup valuations and reducing their expected investment profits.
Venture capitalists want to invest in a company targeting a market that's small now but that will become big fast because that means they and the startup are likely to face less rivalry at the beginning. Therefore, the startup will be valued less and the venture capitalist will be able to boost potential returns.
Startups can be proactive when seeking capital by learning to think like the venture capitalist will.
1. Does your startup deliver so much benefit to customers that many of them would be willing to pay you more than it costs to produce and deliver the product?
2. Will rapidly growing technologies (such as smartphones or virtual reality machines), business models or social changes (like retirement of many baby boomers) boost demand for your product?
3. Will potential customers take a risk on doing business with your startup because they have a significant unmet need that no other companies are solving?
4. Are leading companies (such as Google or Facebook) already working to solve the problem?
5. Do you have a winning track record (such as having been the captain of a successful sports team or having sold a previous startup at a huge profit) and the passion to keep winning?
6. Can you identify and manage business risks like growth outstripping your team's capabilities or a competitor stealing your great product idea?
7. Are you smart and curious and do you learn by doing lots of inexpensive tests of your guesses about which strategies and tactics will solve your pressing business problems?
8. Do you know more about your industry than your rivals and can you articulate a compelling vision for its future?
9. Do you have charisma, integrity and the ability to attract, hire and motivate top people?
If you can answer yes to all these questions, you should have no trouble raising millions in capital.
Chances are good that you're scratching your head and wondering how you could possibly come up with the answers in a way that would not come off as empty bragging. If you're in that camp, get out and talk to people who know the market and who have worked with you.
Talk to customers and industry experts about your product idea. If customers think your product is a must-have-now item and industry experts are nervous about the potential competition, then you are on the right track.
And to settle the question of whether you're a great CEO, ask your colleagues if they consider you to be one and can provide compelling examples of positive answers to the last five questions.
My students were particularly daunted by the five tests of being a great startup CEO. I reassured them that the most important of these tests is the ability to hire and motivate an A team. If a startup CEO can do that, he or she can hire others who can excel in the other four areas.
My students are humble but I hope by the end of the semester to have helped them see that they can flap their wings and fly out of the nest to achieve startup success.


Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with December's club meeting. This is the last update for 2018, may I wish all our readers a Happy New Year, see you in 2019!
Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with November's club meeting, with thanks to Chris Bradley for doing the photos this month.
Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with October's club meeting which included the annual Wattisham Anker Trophy, this year on the theme of Cilvilianised Vehicles. It was won by Andrew Prentis with his Thunder Models kit build of the Scammell Pioneer Recovery in the cicilian marking of Wynns heavy haulage.
Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with August's club meeting, with thanks to Chris B for doing the photos this month.
Camberly Classic Car Show was held on 18th August and Bruce from CBL Models offered us a table outside his shop to show off our modelling skills to the multitude of passers by! As a result, Chris McKee. Jim Potts and myself, ably assisted by Alan Simpson and his scratch building prowess, spent the day building the Dragon 1:6th scale US Jeep. I can't honestly say its a great kit to build, there were plenty of issues to deal with, not least the short shotting of the accelerator pedal, missing fromt he sprue but superbly scratch builit by Allan from a spare bit of sprue. The less said about the overlong rear axle the better!
We completed building the model but didn't paint it, we've left that for Jim to do with the airbrush upstairs in the shop :) Overall it was good fun and a lot of interst was shown by the public and quite a few flyers for ModelFest next month were taken, so it has helped riase our public profile. There were some 'professional' lookig video cameras around and we were videoed a couple of times.
Thanks to Bruce for hosting us and taking the above photo.
Boscome Down Aviation Collection's annual model show took place again on 12th August and we were there, braving the rain with a bewildering array of models. Chris McKee won a silver for his RAF Rescue Launch and I won a Bronze for the USS Sulaco from Aliens.
Apologies for being so slow updating the site this month, house moving got in the way a bit!
Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with June's club meeting.
The beginning of June saw the usual crew invade the IPMS Salisbury show. Not a single NBC suit in sight! I'm afraid I forgot to take a photo of the club table, but here is the group reporbate photo as consolation!
14th April was the Poole Vikings show ona lovely sunny day. In the show competition, Chris McKee won a gold for his Harrier and I won a silver for the Eagle Cargo Transporter. A good day.
28th April was Theamscon in Abingdon. This was a TV/comic/media convention which had a small section for modellers which included Models for Heroes, IPMS Milton Cheney and their SciFi models and cosplay and I filled a table with my SciFi models collection. Lots of interest fromt he public - the Thunderbirds models are always a hit for people of a certain age :) The kids live Iron Man as well... Paul came along to assist with carrying boxes, so cheers, there were a lot!
Good lord, its a photo with me in it!!
Overall, a great time was had by all!
The club AGM was also held with all the officers agreeing to continue for another year, It was announced that the September Member's Trophy slot would be changed to become a new Trophy: The Canadian Trophy, so the Member's trophy now becomes an annual event rather than bi-annual.
This month was the Antipdean Trophy and the winner was Mark Worboys with his 1:48 Mirage IIIO from 75 Sqn RAAF.
Thanks to Chris Bradley for doing the photography this month while I recover from the lurgy! The Competition gallery and results table are now up to date with February's club meeting.
Happy new Year to all our readers! The news for 2017 has been archived under the "2017" menu entry.

Time for a payroll health check?
All too often, companies neglect conducting a payroll health check, especially when employees are getting paid on time and the business is operating as usual. This has led to numerous companies being caught out and penalised for not properly accounting for payroll taxes withheld or underpaying employees. In some instances, it's not necessarily a compliance issue but instead, companies are just throwing away money due to out-of-date payroll processes.
A payroll audit by independent experts — who will go through your payroll processes thoroughly — can assist your company in fixing any discrepancies before regulators become involved. This could save businesses millions in overpayments, underpayments that need to be corrected or unnecessary tax.
This whitepaper outlines how a payroll health check can help identify potential issues and save your business money.

Founded on the pure belief that women should look chic on all occasions, the Donna Degnan label has been creating contemporary styles for over two decades.
With a focus on quality and effortless sophistication, the Degnan vision of intelligent design is inherent in every choice: from fabric sourcing to fit.
The Donna Degnan label can be found in specialty stores across the country, as well as online. Our work continues to set a precedent for sophisticated women's fashion and indulgent style.
Degnan's talent for showcasing the best in women began early. After graduating from FIT and working for major retailers, she begun designing her own collection in the late 90's. Ever since, her collection has been steadfast in filling the void in the market for trendier clothing designed with sophisticated, quality workmanship This initial purpose honed her aesthetic as a designer.
Donna Degnan's designs speak to the GRACE and STRENGTH of women. POISED and cool. EFFORTLESS, yet never appearing so.
Join us on this journey of womanhood ladies. It's your time and you've never looked better.

If Edinburgh put out a fully loaded team against Munster with Berghan and Gilchrist in it perhaps a deal was agreed within the SRU given how important this game is for Edinburgh.
Grigg and Jones have started in the centre (with Grigg at 12) for Glasgow on at least a couple of occasions this year IIRC, so it's not something completely new. Expect Hogg to come into the line a lot for his distribution skills there. Grigg certainly isn't underserving of a start, his form has been tremendous over the past few months and he's made a good impact after coming on in the last two matches.
Other than that, Gilchrist and Berghan left out completely could be to let Edinburgh have them? In positions where Scotland have options on a similar level without them it's a possibility. Or maybe they picked up knocks in the Ireland game. I did think the scrum looked better with the replacement front row on, albeit Barnes was reluctant to award penalties. McInally paying for the line-out issues last week, and maybe a bit of rotation also.
A bit harsh on Kinghorn, who I thought had a good debut, but his chances will definitely come. As an aside I'm happy to see Scotland try to develop him as a winger, as he's much too good a player to be stuck behind Hogg for most of his career.
It's a team that really should beat Italy comfortably.

Aye i think this might be part of it. Surely with the Edinburgh players who have dropped out, I wouldn't be surprised to see Toolis, Gilco & Berg in the team for Munster.
One thing we have learned from Cardiff and Dublin is that if a side defend by putting up a solid wall in front of us we have a tendency to allow us to pass across the front of it till we reach the sidelines and then comeback (almost high speed non-contact exhaust and rewind).I think both Wales and Ireland were happy to do this until we made an error and they pounced: interception tries in both games. I think many commentators referred to us being "strangled" or "smothered".
I was wondering how Toonie would attempt to counter this, without changing his basic philosophy.
Lots of people on here are saying Grigg hasn't the passing game to be a 12, however I don't think that is the main point of him being there. I suspect he will be hitting angles at pace, breaking the line and drawing in defenders. Hopefully this shortens the defensive line and allows space outside. For this to be effective we nee a fairly mobile pack to get quick recycled ball: Zander, Swinson and Brown all give that.
When Grigg hits the gain-line at pace he usually makes a couple of metres, if he keeps that up for an hour and we recycle speedily then we win.
Grigg is a different option to Horne, not such a good passer but can certainly blast through a gap.
I think Jimbo is right on this one, he can make some holes which the other faster players in the line can hopefully exploit. He may not be the passer that Horne is, but he is not terrible either.
At least hopefully he won't throw a long pass that gets picked off!
No complaints about Grigg, just disappointed that the changes other than that aren't exactly inspired. If we want options come 2019 why not blood some more now, especially as Laidlaw didn't exactly set the heather alight last week. Start price and put Horne on the bench, also what has Swinson done recently to merit starting? Even after gilchrists relatively poor performance last week. For me that should have been a chance for gray to start, and maybe Swinson on bench again or preferably Cummings. I think the Kinghorn experiment proved that we need to trust players more at the higher level and from what could have been a more interesting selection looks to be somewhat disappointing and I think sends the wrong message to players who have done well at club. Especially parachuting seymour in after Kinghorn had a much more impressive game in a losing side than seymour has had for a long time.
jimbopip wrote: Re Grigg at 12.
I'd say most people might suggest loosening the solid walls by putting kicks over it or through it from time to time to keep the 'bricks' guessing and take a little bit of alertness away from the wall. I haven't noticed it because I haven't observed Scotland enough in detail (too busy biting my nails watching Ireland's tactics) but maybe Scotland don't use the kicking game enough in their running/passing philosophy game? You have to keep the opposition between two minds all the time. Walls aren't so secure if balls are going over them now and again.

Utter baws ! Kinghorn is a makeshift wing whereas TS is a proven international.
Again 21st you need to take your Glasgow blinkers off once in a while - the point of Nelly's post is that this was a chance to try a few things in selection and Kinghorn's performance merited another start. Seymour was poor in the AIs (awful against NZ/Samoa [I can't remember which]) and hasn't exactly been setting the heather alight for Glasgow this season.
There's no doubting that Seymour is a proven international winger but he's not on form - Kinghorn is on red hot form.
Made my point far better than I could.
I'm not slating Seymour - he has been fantastic for Scotland in the past - but his form at present is simply not better than Kinghorn - hence why I find it bizarre Kinghorn got dropped. Even Maitland was saying in the press they'd have a selection headache between Kinghorn and Seymour, the other players clearly recognise that he had a great game and he's obviously going well in training.
I'd love to see them compete for the wing spot, especially as Tommy hasn't really faced any stiff competition there, McGuigan and Visser blow hot and cold and Duncan Taylor (though always best at 12 does a good job on the wing too) is permanently injured. I think Blair is the first Scottish winger I've seen who I've thought could be a genuine alternative to Seymour on form right now.
* I also realise Kinghorn's not predominantly a winger - but as Hogg is our best fullback I am considering him at wing.
No I can't have that. I would rather them play 'Blair' rather than Seymour so we get him back for next week v Zebre. Kinghorn was ok v Ireland but until he can show the consistency of Seymour AT THIS LEVEL then he remains a useful back 3 cover option on the bench.

Chicken and egg. How can he show consistency if he isn't selected to start off the back of good performances?
He would have had at least another try if two passes hadn't been fired about a foot over his head.
Front row is the right selection. Nel needs to continue building up and it is a great opportunity for Bhatti (that he has earned). McInally has given his all but our lineout has been an issue for much of the 6 nations. Good game for Fagerson to build fitness in.
Swinson is made for this sort of game where his size won't be a problem. If we get into a good lead, J Gray comes off. If we are struggling, Swinson goes off. Would have preferred Cummings in for him; the summer tour should see his debut.
Back row is normal. Experimentation is needed. We lack another option there. Strauss at 8 would have been ideal with Wilson getting the week off. See if he is really needed for his bite.
Disappointed to see Laidlaw start. Really disappointed. He needs a break. Probably too soon for G Horne. Price starting with Laidlaw coming on only if it is close. Russell with Horne covering is best option for the moment.
Grigg has earned his chance while Jones needs to improve his away performances. Utter baws against Wales and Ireland; great against England and good against France. If Dunbar or Scott were in any sort of form (and if Horne did not make 2 howlers in 2 games), I wonder if he would still be here. Horne is fine to cover.
Back 3 is fine. Glasgow need 3 wins from 5 (less if Munster lose) so preserving Hogg or Seymour is silly with the amount of breaks coming up. Would have actually dropped Kinghorn to help Edinburgh's cause against Munster if he is not starting. Hope he gets at least 30 minutes (with no injuries to the starters of course).

The shocking passes were from Glasgow players.
I think this will be the most open running game of the weekend. Think both teams will focus on running in trys and doing offloads all over the place.

You're welcome, all posters over 40 years old.
Jim - feel free to explain this one to Bru, GLove and the foetuses in the posting roster.
Steady on there Mr Fly !
Same to you but of course I'm wasting the luck bit. You won't need it if you play anything like you can. Could be a big score for you guys if you manage to spook the Italians early.
I just got a twitter reminder that it was ten years since 'the Cipriani game' when he apparently looked remotely like a serviceable fly-half for thirty minutes against Ireland.
Unfortunately, that's the same day I was with my family at the Stadio Flaminio watching Scotland lose by a last minute Marcato drop-goal. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing, and the stadium was really raw (only two cubicles in the ladies' toilets apparently, with just the one door), but was so intimate, you felt like you were sat right on the pitch.
My main takeaway from that game is that for all of Scotland's passionate, firey victories against England (just like in 2008), it all means nothing if we underperform against Italy. If we lose, regardless of the England and France wins, this season will still feel a bit underwhelming.
In short, I'm bricking it.
Well i have just given the Warrior Nation over in Roma the really good news re DTH. They are starting celebrations early i.e now. We should do it on Saturday Young Master Bru. Even if it is to get it right u....... that smarmy gnob Inverdale's feckin erse. BTW he -Invertosser - will be glued to the TV watching the Grand Slam 'decider' (his words prior to the Calcutta Cup) between Engerlundland and plucky little Ireland, who will see Jones' outburst pinned to the door on their way out. Blaaaah -hahaha.
Toonie's interview on the BBC site pretty much paraphrases Bru's post: except that he lacks Bru's insight and poetry. Also Toonie isn't terrified of the Hagia Sophia. Mind you he hasn't met her.
We should also bear in mind that Italy played a lot more, and better, rugby in Cardiff than we managed.
I think we will win, but there'll be a few a few worrisome moments I'm sure.
Turned pre match itv off after watching for about 2 mins. English presenters talking about the english team while in the stadium 15 mins before the scotland game kicks off. Is it any wonder some take the abe aproach?
Best of luck today Scottish fans, hope you put on a decent score.

I think its starting to get beyond the point where Italy are benefitting from Parisse's experience now, and he's starting to stop them developing his replacement in the 8 shirt. Maybe they should start bringing him on from the bench towards the end of the match for a bit of leadership and experience, and start looking to bring someone else through as their main man at 8. In truth Parisse looks like he's struggling to get his body to do what his brain wants it to, which is sad to see.
I think in recent years Parisse has been very selfish and has actually stunted quite a few Italian attacks.

Oh dear, that was not a good scrum for Scotland.
What the hell are we doing - headless chicken stuff at that lineout.
Lucky it was called back!
And that is what Scotland can do.
Brown is having a very good start to the game.
No yellow card for the seatbelt tackle then hmmm, where is the consistency?
Oh dear, Allen just walked through the Scottish defence.
Not sure you should be blitzing in your own 22 - that's what happens when you do!
What an awful pass, I hope they rip into him later about it.
Anyone know why swinson is on the pitch? He's knocked back when he carries, he misses tackles and he was flapping around doing nothing at the lineout leading up to the Italian try.
Scotland, that is very very poor, so flat and inviting.
This is brilliant to see, go Italia.

Without a standout speculation by which to lead the cost of today, the Rumour Mill finds itself in something of a loss to understand which morsel of tell-all is deserving of top billing. Wolves fans are not likely to be amazed with numerous tabloid reports calling a"Number 60m January race" for the 21-year-old playmaker, but can take heart in the Birmingham Mail's assertion that Wolves aren't considered to be in any big hurry to part company with their celebrity attraction. Neves, for his part, appears content with life from the Midlands. Word has it when his current deal expires in the conclusion of Euro 2020 that the 48-year-old needs to return into golf direction. Zinedine Zidane is every bit as excited to get back to the cut and thrust of training-ground lifetime and stated up to Spanish TV over the weekend. "Soon I shall go back to training since it's exactly what I enjoy and is what I have done my entire life," stated the guy who has been tipped as JosÈ Mourinho's successor at Manchester United and is thought to possess Toni Kroos, Thiago Alc'ntara, James RodrÌguez and Edinson Cavani at the United side he is now practising with on Soccer Manager 2018. The 23-year-old is valued at nearly #70m and also Manchester City could bid in January for him.
Having gone out of an estimated 60 to 120 cigarettes per day thanks mostly to the strain generated by viewing Chelsea's efforts at protecting in the first phases of the season, Maurizio Sarri will try to deliver AC Milan duo Alessio Romagnoli and Mattia Caldara into Stamford Bridge in January. Cesc F‡bregas can bring the curtain down on a four-year attraction at Chelsea by moving another way.Meanwhile in Russia, former Chelsea captain, legend and leader John Terryis going to register for Spartak Moscow at a deal that will net him 1.8m for the season after taxation. Terry's decision to not re-sign for Aston Villa signifies Steve Bruce could fulfill his appetite to get an aging Premier League-winning war-horse by providing Robert Huth a contract rather.Luke Shaw is dithering on the deal of a new bargain at Manchester United, a state of affairs few could have foreseen if he had been frozen from their first team last season. After being pumped out throughout England's defeat in the hands of Spain on 24, the protector has returned to Manchester to get evaluation.And tired of no more being the center of constant transfer speculation linking him with motions which never come to pass, AtlÈtico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann has declared he want to complete his career in America playing with MLS.

United's supervisor at the time has been drawn to Pogba
Posted on September 19, 2018 September 22, 2018 by piano
One of the trophies won from Le Havre's youth groups, a wall is lined with photos of several of those names. Or anyway. Paul Pogba with this particular wall of legends' film is an action. The site of US Torcy was able to have its very own gallery and, for reasons Pogba was left off. This was the club briefly of Pogba, on the outskirts of Paris, when he started to be seen as a teen. Then he had been goneupgrading to Le Havre. "We were not always surprised," describes the presidentJean-Pierre Damont,"however somewhat disappointed to have discovered after the actuality." United were convinced Pogba had agreed beforehand. "To be truthful, if they take on that way I am quite happy he's away, from me anyhow." Yet that could be deceptive given that, two decades in, United were advised that he was receptive to the concept of returning to Manchester.United's supervisor at the time, david Moyes, has been drawn to him. But he had a few concerns of Pogba that, to the day feel applicable. He wished to understand, had Pogba opted to leave , dated only 21, and played two of the greatest clubs in the world? Can he possess that wanderlust? Being linked with other clubs, or pogba appeared to be talking his next movement, and those were traits so far as Moyes had been worried.
The asking price was exorbitant also Moyes was loath to shell out.His reduction that the traumas Moyes struck at work. Nevertheless that does not necessarily imply he had been completely wrong about Pogba if there's so much proof, two years later José Mourinho did deliver him back into Old Trafford, a participant who left United for nothing, then returned #89m, is performing precisely the exact same again. "My future is presently at Manchester," he explained. "I have a contract, I am playing there in the present time, however, who knows what's going to happen within the upcoming few months"Pogba had informed a huddle of English journalists, about the very first day of this new Premier League season, which when he expressed his true feelings he'd be fined and today, talking to a television team from Germanyhe nodded in agreement as it had been put to him he and Mourinho occasionally had a fractious relationship.Pogba state something positive for a change and had the point to kill. He opted to go another way and, in 1 respect he n't tried to spin everybody a lie. However, you had to marvel at his guts in another round of interviews, in 24 hourswhen he noticed:"Rumours are rumours — but it is not me who's speaking." Not in this case, although possibly he seemed very much as the guy wearing a balaclava.He forgets it is just a couple of months because Pep Guardiola let slide the claim the participant's representative, Mino Raiola, had attempted to convince Manchester City to bidding from the January transfer window for Pogba. Raiola subsequently asserted that was false and Mourinho's verdict was "among these is a liar". He was correct, and I am convinced that when Raiola and Guardiola consented to be tethered to a many people would make the chart would be provided by the exact same suspect whose needle. sbobet online
Raiola's role in this narrative shouldn't be under-appreciated bearing in mind the mind-boggling amount he pocketed for himself #41m, based on the study of this Der Spiegel journalists Rafael Buschmann and Michael Wulzinger from the publication Soccer Leaks: The Dirty Secrets of Soccer — by Pogba's final move.But after all, is the way that brokers make the majority of their cash: benefiting from how the clubs view that this side of their company as a essential evil, asserting their percentage and flogging gamers. Therefore, it may suit a different transfer to be negotiated by Raiola and, even if that's true, we ought to understand by today to realise that he gets his way.Think about the narrative yet another of Raiola's customers, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, informs about going to find that the Juventus manager Luciano Moggi several years back. "I wished to do the considerate thing, treat him [Moggi] such as the big-shot he had been. Mino does bow, also the thing was, I'd Mino with me and scrape. He is nuts. He was told by Raiola when Ibrahimovic clarified it may not be proper expletives removed, to close up. Moggi walked . There were a few words , within one hour, Raiola had organized the deal in the history of Juve. "I knew this man could sue," Ibrahimovic explained. "He had been the master ."The element in the situation of Pogba is when he returned to England it had been the most expensive player in the league and it's tough once he's fulfilled reputation to consider over a smattering of games. What is his problem?It may be a while until we learn the reason why In case the solution is Mourinho. Those fees would concentrate on which are deemed the allegations.Where does this leave the others who've come forward to report?As of January, Bennell had been reported by 97 individuals to the authorities on the rear of Andy Woodward's interview in the Guardian, roughly his ordeal in the youth program of Crewe, in November 2016. Others had reported Bennell at 2015 — while he waited to come to court just one perishing and I had been informed from the latter phases of this trial the publicity had attracted other people taking the amount.What exactly does it say the courts appear to have no means of addressing the numbers?Testimony was discovered by the court in Michigan from 156 of the victims, After Larry Nassar was sentenced to 175 years in January. In the instance of Bennell, just a fifth of those complainants could get the opportunity to confront him.
The 80 or so instances will probably be NFA'd — no action — and it's hard to imagine how hard that will be to the harm it might cause, or the individuals.The matter is with the courts, in contrast to the authorities, as well as also the only reassuring news is that Gary Cliffe, among those players Bennell mistreated in City's system, plans to raise the issue, hoping to begin a discussion about mass reporting, even when he meets Helen Newlove, the victims' commissioner, after this month. As Cliffe states:"Each of the lands were requested to return and report what occurred. They did, in their own amounts. And today, for a lot of to hear nothing is going to be done about itis dreadful." Let's not get giddy yet. "Are Watford the following Leicester?" Trumpeted the media release from 1 bookmaker had slashed the likelihood of the team winning the league of Javi Gracia. Tempted? Watford's chances have come into 500-1 and, even # 100 would be, well, lost by you if you're not familiar.

Fomentos marble is very popular and experts consider the cream-color variety -only found in that territory- to be a best quality product since it allows the production of a-centimeter-thick blocks. Besides, the crystallization process is natural and needs just a few imported items for polishing.

Creating a worksheet for your projected costs will allow you to set priorities and support your estimated budget for the startup.
This statement will need more specific details of the purchases made or to be made. Including everything will set the expected cost for the following month.
Any business, big or small, will need a break-even analysis. This enables the business owner and the lenders to foresee when the business will make a profit.
Loss statements are necessary as well since all businesses will come to a point of losing. This is helpful in a way in order to be aware of the best and worst times of the business.
Building a balance sheet is a complicated step especially if you don't have an accounting background. It basically calculates the value of all your business assets and how much the business owes.
It is best to consult a professional for this matter.
For start-up owners who are still groping in the dark, create a simple statement with the amount of how much will need for the start-up and a specific reason what you need the money for.
