The Stars Will Be Fine Without Jake Oettinger. For Now.
No team can survive losing its top goaltender for a long time. But for the first time in a long time, the Stars are built to survive without theirs for a short one.

Jake Oettinger's absence could be on the shorter side. Candice Ward-USA TODAY Sports
Every time hockey pundits discuss NHL awards, someone inevitably brings up the point that the Hart Trophy, awarded to the NHL's most valuable player, could very well be won by a goaltender every year. Much like the quarterback in football, the goaltending position has an outsized impact on a hockey team's results. You either have great goaltending or you ache for it as its absence gets highlighted by a blinking red light.
In recent years, the Stars have been among the teams fortunate enough to fall in the first camp. That high-caliber netminding has come from a variety of sources. Ben Bishop, in his only real playoff run during a six-year contract in Dallas, dragged an anemic Stars offense to the brink of the conference finals in 2019. The year after that, Anton Khudobin made a cameo as an elite goalie, taking the Stars within two wins of a Stanley Cup before Dallas ran out of gas against Tampa Bay. And, of course, you remember Jake Oettinger facing Calgary down all by his lonesome this past spring:
The Dallas Stars have scored 6 non empty-net goals in 5 games vs. Calgary.

Goaltending really matters, and I'll forgive anyone for taking that statement in a dour way given Oettinger's recent lower-body injury. While he's scheduled to be re-evaluated in a few days, and while the Stars' schedule is relatively light over the next 10, any amount of missed games by Oettinger can be disconcerting. Those of you who recall the days of a gaping black hole in the backup spot behind Kari Lehtonen likely have already had your goaltending trauma reawakened.
If I may, please allow me to put on my therapist pantsuit for a moment: the Stars are better positioned than at any time in recent memory to withstand the loss of Jake Oettinger. For a little while. Probably.
First, let's just acknowledge up front that 1) The Stars want Oettinger back as soon as possible because who wouldn't, they're not a bunch of dummies out here, and 2) Nobody is saying the Stars don't need Oettinger in the long term for this year to go well. Agreed? Great, let's move on.
The single most encouraging thing about this team so far this year, in my estimation, is that they are actually scoring on a reasonable number of their chances. Unlike the previous three years, during which they, uh, didn't.
The Stars are shooting just 5% this year at 5v5 (third-worst in the league). This is less remarkable than the fact that, since 2018-19, the Stars have the worst shooting percentage in the NHL at 6.96%.
man, what bad luck they have been very consistently having for three years.
— Robert Tiffin (@RobertTiffin) October 24, 2021
Last year alone saw the Stars score a good 35 goals fewer than expected given the chances they generated. Whether that issue was systemic or localized to a couple of players, the fact is that this year's Stars are actually scoring goals they should score, and isn't that nice? As their dominant victory over Los Angeles on Tuesday reminded us, hockey is a lot more fun when the puck is going in the net. Scott Wedgewood gave up a couple of goals, sure, but unlike the afternoon calamity against New York last Saturday, the Stars were able to keep putting goals on the board, and the night finished with smiles all around.
The metrics harmonize nicely with the results, too. At 5v5, Dallas is solidly mid-pack in both expected and actual goals scored this season. That might not sound impressive, but I'd urge you to recall how Dallas was third-worst in the NHL last year in 5v5 goal-scoring, and to be grateful. This year has started off so very much better than the last one, both aesthetically and in the standings.
However, it's not just the scoring. Pete DeBoer has done what so many of his predecessors could not: juice the goal-scoring without sacrificing the defense. At 5v5, these Dallas Stars are third in the NHL in goals allowed per game. That's not all Oettinger, either; the team is also top-10 in expected goals allowed, a stat that tries to separate the quality of chances from the individual goaltender's play and talent shot quality without the noise of goaltending play. A stingy defense is a surefire way to turn a league-average offense into a game-saving one, and that's exactly what Dallas has enjoyed thus far
More than that, the goals Dallas has scored come from a number of sources. It's noteworthy that the Stars' six game-winners have been tallied by names like Tyler Seguin, Mason Marchment, and even Jani Hakanpää alongside top liners Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz. Yes, the Robertson-Hintz-Joe Pavelski line still carries this team a lot of nights, as all top lines should and do; that trio ranks first through third in points scored on the team. But Seguin, who seems rejuvenated in the early going, is one point behind Pavelski, while Marchment is a point behind Seguin. The top-liners may share the team goal lead at five apiece, but Marchment sits at four and Seguin shares joint third place with two unexpected names: teenager Wyatt Johnston and unheralded veteran Joel Kiviranta. For the first time in a long while, the Stars not only seem capable of getting the puck in the net when they need to, but capable of finding those goals from a variety of places.
But it's one thing to score in a number of ways. It's another to win in different ways. Yet here are the Stars, sitting third in power-play goals per 60 minutes despite a good bit of streakiness (they started the season 6-for-17, then slumped to 0-for-15, before converting 3 out of 4 on Tuesday). The penalty kill has been just as dominant, which is good because it's had to be. As you may have heard on the Bally Sports Southwest broadcast the other night, Dallas and Los Angeles are the two most frequently penalized teams in the NHL. In spite of this, Dallas is sixth in the NHL in goals allowed per 60 minutes on the PK. The Stars are creating problems for themselves, but they've solved them with a flourish, too.
Here's the rub: Oettinger has been far better on the PK thus far than backup Scott Wedgewood. That's generally the case for top goalies relative to their backups, but it's one of the most prominent areas that could take a hit during the 23-year-old's absence. Even then, there are workarounds. One proven way to avoid giving up as many goals on the penalty kill–and I've researched this strategy extensively–is to kill fewer penalties. To wit: in the Stars' six wins this season, they've taken an average of four penalties per game. They've been on the job more than five times a night in their four losses. This is probably not unrelated to the fact that, in their six wins this year, the Stars have only given up two power-play goals compared to five in their four losses. If there is a single key area for Oettinger's teammates to focus on shoring up in his absence, reducing the number of shorthanded shots Wedgewood faces would be it.
Of course, the easiest way to compensate for Oettinger's absence, however long it lasts, is for Wedgewood to do what Khudobin did in relief of Bishop and raise his game a half dozen or so notches. That probably isn't happening over the long haul, but he has demonstrated his ability to be solidly average to above average over last season and the early days of this one. This shouldn't be a Cooper Rush situation, in other words, where the Stars' coaching staff must radically adjust its gameplan and Wedgewood's teammates must play even better hockey to accommodate. Then again, there's no reason why that couldn't work in the short term if it had to, given the caliber of the team surrounding the netminder this year.
Last season ended with the solemn realization that the Stars were only in a position to steal the Calgary series because Jake Oettinger carried the team on his back. This year, the Stars can carry their goaltender, for a change. It's not ideal, but thanks to a new coaching staff and fresh balance up and down the roster, it is possible for a little while. Like any good therapist will tell you, the key is to try to change only the things you can control. The rest of the Stars have a hefty dose of role-playing exercises awaiting them on the upcoming road trip.

CUPE National calls Ford government's attacks on power workers dangerous and unacceptable Français
Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE)
OTTAWA, Dec. 20, 2018 /CNW/ - The Canadian Union of Public Employees says the Ford government's assault on the collective bargaining rights of their members at Ontario Hydro sets a dangerous and unacceptable precedent. Back-to-work legislation was passed at Queen's Park today, even though members of the Ontario Power Workers Union (CUPE Local 1000) had not even gone on strike. CUPE says the government's actions are disproportionate and extremely disappointing.
"It's a sad day for workers in Ontario when the premier doesn't even try to help the parties get a fair deal at the bargaining table – and instead reaches for the nuclear button," said CUPE National President Mark Hancock. "How can any worker in Ontario expect their employer to bargain fairly and in good faith? What employer will negotiate in good faith when they know they have government legislation in their back pocket?"
"If the government won't end its attack on workers' rights in Ontario, then CUPE and our 258,000 members province-wide will mobilize to ensure our constitutional rights are respected," said CUPE National Secretary-Treasurer Charles Fleury.
CUPE restated its belief that workers shouldn't be punished for exercising their constitutionally-protected right to free and fair collective bargaining. The Ford government should have been working to facilitate a return to the table, but yet again, Ontario's so-called "government of the people" sided firmly, and immediately, with management.

The Queen has appointed Tim Knox, 55, the director of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, to be the new director of the Royal Collection Trust. He has been the museum's director since 2013 and is an architectural historian and country house curator. [...]
His early career was spent at the Royal Institution of British Architects. He then served as the head curator of the National Trust (2002-05), from which he went on to be the director of the Sir John Soane's Museum (2005-13). — The Art Newspaper
"The Royal Collection is one of the world's greatest, comprising more than a million objects from all aspects of fine and decorative art," The Art Newspaper writes. "It is not the personal property of The Queen, but is held in trust by Her Majesty for her successors and the nation."

This article talks about recent research that seems to be located the point in the disease development process for the actual synapses in the neural system become engulfed by the disease.
While we know a fair bit about the role played by substances like beta-amyloid's in the development of Alzheimer's disease. Researchers have been searching for related factors in the hope that they might provide insight into new approaches towards treatments that might slow the advancement of the disorder. In the study discussed in this article researchers seem to identified precisely when in the process of the unfolding of the disorder that the membranes responsible for maintaining the synaptic gap across which neural transmission from one cell to another occurs becomes engulfed by the disorder. It appears that this occurs relatively early in the onset of the disorder and may suggest another front in which researchers can look for ways to if not stop the disease, at least slow its onset.
What are the researchers suggesting occurs in the early stages of the onset of Alzheimer's disease in relation to neural synapses?
What other factors are typically involved in the early and late stages of Alzheimer's at the neuronal level?
What does this new findings suggest in the way of potential treatment strategies related to the disorder of Alzheimer's?

Am I missing a ground somewhere?
I have an 06 lrx scooter with 256 miles that needs a wire harness for the ignition and won't produce a spark to or from the coil to the plug but when I use my self as a ground I get a shock from the wire going to the coil.
Am I missing a ground somewhere or something? 2 from my ignition I have 5 plugs but to the harness I have 4.
Comments for Am I missing a ground somewhere?
This is a common problem with most china made scooters. It is a simple fix. Get yourself a piece of 16 or 18 gauge copper wire with good insulation. Just connect it to the motor cylinder hear valve cover and then find a good spot on the frame to mount the other end.
Be sure to remove any paint that might weaken the ground. This should fix the problem. It worked for my scooter. Let me know if it worked for yours too.

Majlis Speaker: Iran not isolated nation
| Aug 8, 2017
Tehran, Aug 8, The strong presence of foreign officials from different countries in President Hassan Rouhani's swearing-in ceremony indicated that Iran is not an isolated nation, Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani said on Tuesday.
Participation of about 130 senior officials from 105 countries was a symbol of their admiration for the religious democracy in Iran, Larijani said.
Despite the US tricks and rhetoric, attendance by the foreign delegations foiled Washington's plot to isolate the Islamic Republic, he said.
Amid US rhetoric and measures to restrict Iran's trade ties with world countries, the presence by foreign countries' representatives in Iran showed that US sanctions against the country remain to be vain, the parliament speaker said.
President Rouhani's oath-taking ceremony was held on August 5 in Tehran.
Eight presidents, 19 parliament speakers, nine vice presidents and prime ministers, seven parliament vice-speakers, 11 foreign ministers and 35 special envoys from different countries will reportedly attend the ceremony.
Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei endorsed Rouhani's presidential decree in a ceremony on Thursday.
Rouhani was reelected as president for a second consecutive term in the national elections on May 19, securing nearly 57 percent of the total votes cast.

Essential Legal Tools for the Period between Life and Death
Liat Keisary Yahalomi
Barnea Jaffa Lande & Co.
In 2017, the Legal Capacity and Guardianship Law was amended in Israel to enable individuals to draw up an enduring power of attorney that will come into effect if or when they become incapacitated. Guardianship and an enduring power of attorney are two legal tools that allow for the appointment of an individual to take care of another person's affairs when that person is no longer capable of taking care of him or herself and of managing his or her affairs independently. In these instances, when a person becomes incapacitated, a guardian may be appointed or an enduring power of attorney that the person signed when he or she was still of sound mind may be activated. An enduring power of attorney has many advantages over the appointment of a guardian. In this article, I will review some of the key advantages.
As stated, the two abovementioned legal tools enable another person to be authorized to act on behalf of an individual who is no longer capable of taking care of him or herself. The amendment to the law enables individuals to draw up an enduring power of attorney, which will come into effect if or when the grantor becomes incapacitated. Up until the amendment, it was only possible to draw up a general power of attorney valid for only as long as the grantor was of sound mind. As soon as the grantor lost mental capacity, the power of attorney expired. Under these circumstances, the only option was to petition the court to obtain an appointment as a guardian.
One of the major advantages of an enduring power of attorney over guardianship is efficiency. The appointment of a guardian is a long and cumbersome process. A petition must be filed with the court, and the opinion of a psychiatrist or other relevant professional expert must be attached to the petition, attesting to the person's lack of cognitive capacity and inability to independently manage his or her own affairs. (Such a person is called "a ward.") During the hearing of the petition, the court will examine the suitability, qualifications, and capability of the person petitioning to be appointed as guardian; consider the positions of the ward's family; and appoint an aid from the welfare office in the ward's residential area. These proceedings require the investment of multiple resources (time, lawyer's fee, and more).
As opposed to this, the activation of an enduring power of attorney is much quicker and easier. The grantor can define in advance under what conditions the power of attorney will come into effect, such as the presentation of an opinion in conformity with the Legal Capacity Law (the default) or any other condition the grantor chooses. When the conditions are fulfilled, and supporting evidence of this is presented, the process is concluded easily.
For example, individuals can decide that the family physician's recommendation is sufficient. When this condition is fulfilled, the appointee goes to the offices of the Administrator General with the power of attorney and the family physician's aforesaid recommendation, and the Administrator General validates the enduring power of attorney on the spot. This enables enormous savings in time and resources. The power of attorney comes into effect without requiring the court processes of examining the appointment, examining the qualifications and capability of the appointee, and considering the positions of the relatives, all because the grantor appointed his or her agent in advance in the enduring power of attorney.
Another element that makes the enduring power of attorney more efficient is that there is no need for supervision. Guardians are subject to supervision by the office of the Administrator General and must submit various reports according to that prescribed in the law. With an enduring power of attorney, the agent can be released from this obligation and the enduring power of attorney can state that no supervision by the Administrator General is needed (supervision that is often cumbersome, sometimes overly so). However, in both scenarios, when a guardian is appointed and when an agent is appointed, they must keep precise ledgers and records of all of the income and expenses of the ward/grantor.
It is important to note that the Administrator General's supervision is needed to protect the interests of a person who was appointed a guardian. However, when an agent is appointed through an enduring power of attorney, these interests are usually protected by design, since, in most instances, the grantor usually chooses his or her agent based on a relationship of closeness and trust.
Additionally, in order to eliminate possible risks and ensure an alignment of interests, it is possible and even recommended that the enduring power of attorney also name an additional person who must be kept abreast and receive reports of the agent's actions in real time or immediately thereafter, thereby ensuring a mechanism of close supervision.
An enduring power of attorney also enables individuals to pre-appoint a number of agents or an alternate agent, in case the original agent cannot continue to fulfill his or her role, as well as to define the interactions between the agents. This is far more efficient than the procedures involved in replacing a guardian, where there is no other option but to petition the court once again to appoint a replacement guardian, in which case the entire process of examining the suitability of the guardian must be repeated.
In terms of a person's autonomy and control over his or her life, the appointment of a guardian is considered a more extreme course of action than drawing up an enduring power of attorney. This is because a guardian is delegated nearly absolute control over the ward's person and property, and sometimes, if there is no close friend/relative who wishes to and agrees to be appointed as guardian, the court may appoint an NPO or a stranger as guardian.
On the other hand, with an enduring power of attorney, individuals can control the future course of their lives, can oversee how their affairs will be handled, and can protect their own interests. When drafting an enduring power of attorney, individuals can devote a lot of thought into mapping out their future in advance, customizing the document by defining a variety of mechanisms that meet their unique requirements according to their viewpoints and needs, in a way that guarantees all matters important to them are handled according to their wishes. Their enduring powers of attorney can refer to the volume of assets, as well as issue instructions with regard to future events, the giving of gifts and loans, moving to another residence or to assisted living, medical care, etc. The agent is obligated to follow the instructions in the power of attorney, to the extent that their fulfillment is possible under the circumstances. Please also note that an enduring power of attorney expires on the date the grantor passes away.
It is true that a guardian is also obligated to act in the best interests of his or her ward. However, a guardian is appointed only at the stage when the individual needing a guardian is already incapable of making his or her own decisions and expressing his or her wishes and position on any matter for which a decision must be made. These disadvantages are quite evident when a stranger is appointed as guardian.
Furthermore, an agent will receive a fee only if the enduring power of attorney defines a fee and the rate of the fee in advance. As opposed to this, a guardian may request a fee according to the rate prescribed in the law.
Another legal tool that the amendment to the law provides is "preliminary guidelines." If individuals do not have a person whom they can appoint in an enduring power of attorney, they can draw up preliminary guidelines and petition the court to appoint a guardian according to the principles outlined in this document. The main advantage is that individuals can include instructions, requests, and wishes in the preliminary guidelines for the guardian to be selected by the court. The preliminary guidelines for a guardian can refer to the individual's personal welfare; daily needs; place of residence; health and medical matters; physical, emotional, and social needs; and economic affairs, such as the handling of all assets, money, and liabilities. When a guardian must be appointed, the courts will be diligent about appointing someone suitable who is compatible and can fulfill the requirements and guidelines of the ward.

C Design is a new range of profiles embellished with a refined detail: we are talking about new profiles with Swarovski® crystals, one of the latest novelties from the house of Profilpas!
Profilpas studied carefully how to make a profile already of high quality even more elegant, to meet the needs of environments requiring very special details. Through various tests and trials, Profilpas has managed to use a new technology that uses welding of the adhesive thermoplastic of each single Swarovski® crystal for adhesion with the brass profile. This is done thanks to machinery designed and engineered specifically for this activity and ordered to measure by Profilpas.
The operation of heat sealing has been improved through a number of studies and projects that make it possible to melt the thermal adhesive that is behind the crystal Swarovski® at 180° to add it to the profile in brass. After cooling the profile, the advantage that is derived from this processing stage is a permanent and durable bond between the crystal and the metal.
Profilpas has thus created a symbiosis of two materials that together give life to a high-class product, which is distinguished from the common profiles created with double-sided adhesive and sold on the market.
The birth of this innovative product has also been reported on the blog of Swarovski® Crystals. Read the post here!
These luminous points of light are now used in the worlds of fashion, jewelry and accessories, but can also be used in other contexts. It is for this reason that Profilpas decided to beautify its products using the brightness of the crystals, thereby creating this innovative line of profiles with Swarovski® crystals, of great aesthetic value, but also functional.
The C Design range was presented last September at the Cersaie Bologna, the International Exhibition of Ceramics for Architecture and Bathroom Furnishings. During this major exhibition, the industry leader, Profilpas presented the entire line Profilpas Design, a full range of profiles, mouldings and baseboards, whose key feature is the focus on the latest trends in interior design.
The line Profilpas Design is also part of the series C Design of profiles with Swarovski® crystals, an innovative and sophisticated range that is perfect for environments of great elegance. Thanks to the combination of the profile of chromed brass and crystal, these profiles give great brightness to the environment where they are used and are perfect for any room in the house, from the bedroom to the kitchen to the bathroom.
And even more valuable is the new finishing of the C Design profiles in golden brass obtained by a 24k gold bath!

The Making of Netflix True Crime Series
The Confession Tapes: the making of a true crime TV series
A double homicide in the American state of Georgia resulted in Buddy Woodall's forced confession and arrest for the murder of his uncle and his uncle's friend in 2000. From The Confession Tapes, season 1, episode 6: Labor Day Murders. Shot on a Canon EOS C300 Mark II. © Meena Singh
What would you do if you were convicted of a murder you didn't commit after being coerced into making a false confession? That's what cinematographer Meena Singh explored in the true crime documentary series, The Confession Tapes. She takes us behind the scenes of the 2017 Netflix-commissioned show.
Filmed in 15 cities over 50 days, the filming provided technical challenges Meena relied on her Canon kit to overcome. We caught up with the US-based documentarian to find out how she went about achieving her vision, what equipment she used and how it helped her to create a collection of unnerving and captivating episodes. See the trailer bellow.
We know the basic premise of The Confession Tapes, but can you give us a more granular breakdown of what the series is about?
The Confession Tapes revisits six murder cases in America between the 1980s and the early 2000s. In each case, the accused was convicted on the basis of a confession which they later retracted because, they claim, they were manipulated into believing they must be guilty. The series explores the possibility of giving a false confession, coerced by interrogation and, essentially, mental torture.
How did you get involved in the project?
Kelly Loundenberg, the creator and director, sent me her pitch packet and spoke to me about it – I was on it right away. I loved the idea. That was about six months before we started production.
Was the series commissioned before work started?
No. Executive Producer James Graves connected Kelly with Netflix. She went into a meeting to pitch the show to them, and they loved the idea. By that point she had already been doing research for around 11 months, and was speaking to Larry DeLisle – a man accused of killing his four children after he drove his car into the Detroit River in 1989 – for the episode Down River, the seventh in the series.
As DoP, what were your goals for the cinematography?
I wanted to provide the viewer with the feeling of being interrogated. I wanted to put the audience in the subject's body for a moment. What would you do, how would you react, what would you say to the police, if you were in this person's shoes? The show is all about remembering false memory, and how our minds can play tricks on us. As the appeals lawyer for Karen Boes, one of the convicted, says in her episode: "We all have a breaking point." There is a point where each of us will be manipulated into remembering a memory that is not ours. For Karen, who is serving life without parole, it resulted in admitting to killing her 14-year-old daughter.
Were you aiming to arrive at conclusions about innocence, or was it more about asking questions that can't be answered easily?
Kelly is very conscious of giving everyone a voice – she does not twist any representation of the facts or the people she interviews. She would rather the audience make a decision based on watching than push forward an agenda with the material.
Each episode uses taped confession as a thruline, so viewers see how they were drawn out.
How did you tell the stories in a way that maintains impartiality?
In all the cases, the confession was taped, and each episode uses that taped confession as a thruline, so the viewer can see how they were drawn out of the accused. That's interwoven with new footage of interviews with key people that Kelly and I conducted, with the help of our team.

How many interviews were there, and how did you go about filming them?
I don't know the number off-hand, but it feels like at least 50! And it wasn't an easy task to get hold of all these people – it took a whole research team in LA and some investigating on the ground. We wanted multiple voices from all sides of the case: from the defence, prosecution, witnesses, the jury, the police and interrogators involved in getting the confessions. Kelly and I were keen that all the interviews had the same look, which was quite flat and symmetrical in a space. I would enter a house or office – in some cases we shot on the street or in a café – and make a decision on-the-fly on where the best background would be. We usually had very little time to set up, so having that vision and working fast to make it happen was key, as was having flexible and adaptable equipment.
What kit did you use?
The whole film was shot on a Canon EOS C300 Mark II with Canon CN-E15.5-47mm T2.8 L S/SP and Canon CN-E30-105mm T2.8 L S/SP lenses.
Why did you shoot on the EOS C300 Mark II?
I love shooting documentaries on the C300 Mark II for its image quality, for the ease of travelling with it, and the fact that it's single-operator friendly. The shoot involved travelling from the west coast to the east coast, through upstate New York and Georgia in the States, and up to Vancouver in Canada. We visited 15 cities in 50 days – with a full two-camera package and four people, it was challenging, which made the C300 Mark II the perfect camera in terms of needing to pack lightly and have versatility on the road. Canon's colour space is unmatched at the price point. Skin tones are fleshed out and well rounded, and the image doesn't have that oversharpness that a lot of other digital cameras do.
What challenges did you encounter and how did you overcome them?
The whole process was a tough journey, and very emotional. It was hard to nail people down for interviews, to get locations to shoot in, and to get all the B-roll we needed to flesh out the visual storytelling. It was a lot of work, but well worth it to tell these people's stories.
Calvin Alston's taped interrogation resulted in his conviction in the Fuller case, at the age of 19. Catherine Fuller, 49, was murdered in Washington, DC in 1984, supposedly by a gang of young men. From The Confession Tapes season 1, episode 5: 8th and H. Shot on a Canon EOS C300 Mark II. © Meena Singh
Has the experience affected you personally in any way?
It definitely opened my eyes to how desperately our criminal justice system is in need of repair, and how easily a person who gets on the wrong side of the system will be completely swallowed up by it if they don't have financial or other resources to get them out. I'm happy to have been part of this project, because I think the issue needs to be discussed in our society.
Finally, what advice would you give to any of our readers who want to make a career in cinematography?
Get out there and shoot – shoot as much as you can because you only learn by doing.

I have to make this quick so I'll get right to the point.
The crew and I go into Yuma late this morning. I take care of several important tasks in preparation for cold weather that's forecast for the Yuma area. At Wal-Mart I buy some fresh provisions, and stock supplies for "sick bay." I heard on the television news last night about the flu sweeping the country. I pick up some Alka-Seltzer Plus, ginger ale, Gatorade, crackers, and chicken soup. Before leaving the parking lot, I unload full trash bags in the receptacles.
On the way home I pull off Interstate 8 at Pilot Knob.
First I get the empty propane tank filled, so now we have two full tanks. I also use the drinking water dispenser to fill up ten one-gallon jugs. By this time the wind is blowing the U.S. flag above the building full-out and sand is rushing across the pavement.
I'm glad it's not much further to Ogilby Road.
By the time we pull off the interstate, then Sidewinder Road, and I park the PTV, the wind is very strong. I decide to leave the solar panel flat. The clouds are dark and thick. Not much light to catch anyway. I unlock the BLT and the crew jumps in. Quickly I run back and forth carrying the groceries inside. I pull the BLT's door shut and lock it. We're rocking from the wind. I feel sand grit in my mouth.
After about twenty minutes fussing around inside, I lift the blinds.
Ohmigosh! The mountains are completely hidden by a curtain of dust or sand, whichever it is blowing across the desert. The other RVs look like they're in a dense fog. I make sure all the windows and vents are closed, leaving only a cracked window where the antenna cord comes in. It whistles loudly so I tape it up which helps a lot. It's a dust bowl out there!
My laptop is running out of charge.
And my batteries are barely holding their own. For that reason, I'll post this and then stay offline until mid-morning tomorrow when the sun will shine on the panel again. Might as well be optimistic!
P.S. Bridget was very happy to go to town today like I promised her. I walked the crew around the Wal-Mart parking lot for a long time, letting them go from island to island in a marathon sniff-out, which was followed by a feast of rotisserie chicken in the PTV. Two very happy, canine campers!

Ugh! I hate litter boxes. I'd rather open the door. Stay warm!
I just LOVE my "litter box" trained dog… although there is no litter involved. (plastic tray with pee pad inside – called Pipi Dolly – of all things) She will only use it for emergency when we are down south or in the RV, but at home, she uses it every day. I have no yard living in a condo and it is great not to have to take Mugs for a walk except for fun.
Be safe out there! We are rocking and blowing here in Anza Borrego. Suppose to calm tomorrow.
We have never been to Yuma and thought we might stop for a few days on our way to Tucson. Can you direct us to a quiet, so so private area to boondock?
Stay warm, snuggling time for the crew!
You can find a spot here with the amount of privacy or companionship you prefer. Coming from the west, about 12 miles before Yuma, you'll see a clearly marked exit for Ogilby Road (paved). Take Ogilby over the interstate and continue past the railroad tracks. Immediately to the right is Sidewinder Rd (marked with a sign). Continue a few car lengths more on Ogilby and you'll see the sign for American Girl Mine Road, also off to the right from Ogilby Rd.
Go down either of those roads and you'll see RVers in groups or alone or somewhere in between. It's very easy. If you camp off by yourself, I advise asking someone if your spot is BLM or private, if unsure. If BLM, stay within 150 feet of the lane marked BLM, and limit your stay to 14-days or less.
Thanks, Sue! That's what we needed. I hope we don't freeze before then. Stay warm out there!
Sounds like from my other RV bloggers, in the Yuma/Q area, you all have a few days of this wind/dust. Hang in there – it's that time of the year.
Glad you went into town and got loaded up on supplies.
Here in Salt Lake City, UT, we are having a major snow storm. Going to be hunkered down til Sunday.
Cuddle up with the crew and read a few good books.
Really look forward to all your adventures with you and the crew, as my husbands caregiver since his stroke 4 years ago. My world has gotten very small and your blog makes it so much brighter. Thank you for taking the time to share.
I thought there were mountains to the east of Yuma! They were there when we got here! Nothing to see now but dust. Posole & tortillas for dinner, then a nice hot cup of tea & a movie or two. No interest in going outside until this all passes.
Do you leave the Wilson antenna up in that wind?
We've had strong winds twice since I received the Wilson antenna from Mick. Both times I was caught unaware. In other words, by the time I realized I needed to take it down, the wind was so strong that I didn't dare. It's top-heavy when first pulled out of the bumper mount. The wind could slam it to the ground before I have a chance to get a grip higher up on the pole. So far, no problem . . . The pole does sway in the wind.
YAY!! The crew got the trip to town, you got your stuff done and you made it HOME!!! Stay Safe and will look forward to your posting tomorrow!!!
Stay in and stay warm.
Pat in Ajo for now.
I've only read one Jance book and it was good. I don't know about the rest! Hope you picked a good one.
I meant to add that I'm very sorry for the loss of your Jake.
Thank you! Perhaps someday I'll have another terrier; maybe even a rescue one.
just curious if you have considered adding a generator to your mix.
When a generator that runs as quietly as a solar panel is available, I'll consider getting one, but probably won't. I don't want to carry one around along with a container of gas. I don't want to add to noise pollution. And I don't need one. A few times a year, when the cloud cover is heavy or I'm camped in a dense forest, the solar power can't keep up. It's only a slight, temporary inconvenience. If that hurts my batteries, so be it. I'm saving in other ways to compensate for shortened battery life.
Last evening I turned off the laptop due to its draw. I watched television for two hours (and quit because of poor programming) and read a book under one of my overhead LED lights for another hour. Not suffering!
My wife says to get some Tylenol for the flu for fever and body aches and some good cough medicine. Drink lots of fluids, keep warm and rest. Chicken soup is good too, along with a good book. The kids can have some chicken and beggin bits [cheese flavored] yum yum. By the way it started raining here in Wikieup AZ at 5:14 PM today and wind too, but no dust.
I've got Tylenol and cough medicine and drops. Rain in Wikieup! I bet the natives are happy.
People speed on the sandy Sidewinder Road, turning it into washboard. Apparently it is scraped frequently as it is lined with sand 2 or 3 feet high. That contributed a lot. I could see the RVs closer to the road were getting a lot more dust/sand that we were, tucked further back in. The blowing sand must have been thick over by the dunes.
You should have gotten a flu shot while you were in WalMart. Wishing you the best.
Shoulda, coulda, woulda . . . I intended to get a shot. However, about 20 or more people were lined up at the Wal-Mart pharmacy, probably several of them coming from flu virus infected homes/workplaces. I didn't want to stand around in that environment, so I grabbed the Alka Seltzer and got out of there. Plus the flu shot sign wasn't up anymore.
Your idea to avoid people will probably give you more protection than the flu shot. I have only had one flu shot in my life and it gave me a mild case of the flu – that is how the shots work. Since then I have used the avoid people protective measure. IF I were required to be around a lot of people I would get one but avoidance is better if possible.
Not to try to pick a fight… 🙂 but that isn't really how the flu shot works. I have taken it since they came out because I have mild asthma, and I have never had any flu symptoms from it. It does get your immune system working, but it has no live virus and whatever caused your symptoms mostly likely wasn't the shot. There are lots of bugs out and about to catch this time of year.
Unbelievable how the weather can change so quick but as I said end of last week they were predicting a cold snap for S. AZ and possible snow flurries which is known to happen in S. AZ occasionally. I'm barely getting over the flu….hope you didn't catch the bug at Wally's. Glad you stocked up and canines got to go for a joy ride and treats. My dogs love to go for a ride even if it's just to the store and back. I think Bridget and Spike have become and like being RVers….they prob anxiously waiting for next adventure. Stay warm and comfy.
The media predicts the worst flu season EVER!!!! every year. And then seem disappointed when it's not so. Kinda like an older brother – always trying to scare you.
Second rule: Don't touch your face!!!
Take care! did you know there's such a thing as a flat cable for windows? I had my directtv hooked up to one when I had it. it's like a little flat extension piece that you can attach your antenna cable to on both ends. that way, you can still close your window effectively. Radio Shack sells them.
No, I didn't know about the flat cable. Thanks!
Sue. So glad u are taking charge of your own health. I would like to chat via email about this topic.
Are you sure we can't discuss this here, Rob?
We're blowing out here in Palm Springs too. It was a good day to visit the wind farms though, which is exactly what we did. We saw several dust storms kick up as we were out with the tour. I couldn't believe how quickly the San Jacintos disappeared behind the dust.
Like Michelle i enjoy ur posts-they r my getaway when I can't get away. So glad u listened to that inner voice yesterday and stayed in. I love the way u take care of the crew, ur such a great mama/companion to them. Some folks think I'm crazy but I enjoy Killer's company more than many humans-the animals have so many traits that we "humans" should have but don't always have. Ur a strong woman and it's good to see u living life ur way and enjoying every day! Prayers that u avoid that nasty flu! Hugs to Bridge and Spike.
Sounds like you have things under control.
Watch out for flying sand, it has the capacity to get in every orifice you have.
Never been in a wind storm in the desert, but have been in one on the beach.
Same WIND blowing all the way out here in San Diego too! We're getting out of here and headed to our old haunt in Yuma so hope it calms down by tomorrow. We may see you somewhere out there in the boonies. Stay safe…and dust-free!
It's so calm here today that the desert looks like an oil painting. The only movement I see from my window is a hummingbird fight by the feeder. Safe travel!
Oh dear……sounds like quite the wind/dust storm. Hunker down and stay warm. Hopefully the stabilizers are in place…so you don't rock all night.
Glad you made it to town and back.
I also read about the flu going around. Walmart always has those disinfectant wipes at the door..right before you grab your cart. I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS wipe the handle of my cart down plus the plastic seat flap the kids sit on. Don't want to put my bread or eggs….well you get the point. Most grocery stores have them available also. I'll admit… I'm a germaphobe..but this germaphobe hasn't been sick in 20+ years. Purell hand sanitizer comes with a clip for the strap of your purse…it's in the "travel size" section at Walmart.
Rotissere chicken…………….the crews favorite! Plus they got to go for a ride AND explore around the p-lot! Whooooeeee life is grand!
As I read your post, I wondered what the current temp was in Yuma compared to here in middle Missouri. Oddly enough it is warmer here and the high today is expected to be warmer here then in Yuma. (And the wind is not blowing either.) Stay safe, put weight belts on the kids so they don't blow away on their walk.
Same here in Quartzsite, mountains all around us just disappeared yesterday. I'm in town and parked between two big rigs in a truck stop. That sure cuts the wind down. Be safe.
Sue, your blog is way too long and bogging my computer down for minutes until I stop downloading the page. I use Windows XP and Firefox. I have no problems with other WordPress blogs.
I'm glad you let me know, Gary. I don't understand how my blog could be "way too long." The last two entries were nothing but text, no photos.
I have noticed this . . . When I first open my blog, not only does the most recent entry open up, but also several previous ones. I don't think it always did that. I'll investigate via WordPress.
I need specific information from readers. Did the TEXT-ONLY entries take too long to load? Do the SLIDESHOW ENTRIES ONLY take too long to load? Are ALL ENTRIES taking too long to load? Or do you have NO PROBLEMS loading my blog?
I'm not shouting… I'm trying to draw attention to the info I need to figure out what's going on. Thanks to anyone who gives me some feedback.
Currently reading your blog in Tucson AZ. When I load your blog in Firefox using Vista OS, I get the message that Firefox needs to stopped because it is using 1 gig of memory (the excessive memory use error message). It happens even when I have closed all the windows but the one in which I open your blog. It takes forever to load and will jump around between entries for a bit. I think it started two weeks ago, but then again my memory is not so good. After viewing your blog I have to kill Firefox to make it give memory back to the rest of the pc. I don't see any difference in behavior between text and photos. So that's my bug report.
I have no problems loading & your blogs are not long at all. I've read blogs three times or more longer and all load fine on my home computer.
I copied your comment, Allison, and placed it on the WordPress Support Forum. Thanks for explaining the problem.
No problems loading either with/without photos here Sue. oh I 'm using a Mac and Chrome on Verizon.
I use my iPad and have no problems..
I use my iPad too, no problems ever.
No problems IF I have a good Verizon connection with some good bandwidth. The length of your postings are fine, I don't care for your Slide shows but I can shut them down after they open the first time and keep them from cycling while I read your text and the Comments so that is not a biggie.
Love your slideshows but pause them to save memory.
I have been having problems with it loading very slowly for the last couple weeks. Doesn't seem to matter if there is a slide show, or lots of pictures, or only text. So it must have to do with basic page set-up. I am using Windows 7, Firefox, and have a high speed Cox connection.
I just tried Chrome… and it wasn't any faster.
I have no problem, either on iPad or laptop.
I haven't experienced any problems loading your blog. Running Windows 7, using Chrome with and Xfinity connection.
I use Windows Vista & Firefox on a gaming computer and the page loads up quickly. BUT the page is pulling about 2.78 GB of memory, shooting my CPU up to around 49%, causes my computer & video card to go into what sounds like overdrive Sounds like I'm gaming, its been a LONG while since I did that..yea! Even with all of this I will continue to return. 🙂 I think someone mentioned that they had noticed it about 2 weeks ago, I think thats about when I noticed the extra pull too. Dont know if this helps you any..maybe..
I have no problems on my laptop Windows 7, nor my Android phone, nor my Kindle Fire.
In the past, I never had any trouble loading any of your blog posts. Just in the last week or so, I've been getting a message about the page not loading due to a "long running script". I hit "Cancel the Script" & your blog loads. I'm using Internet Explorer.
I have read your blogfor as long as you have been on the road, have use verizon mifi, Time Warner, and Wave. Also my computer hookups in different RV Parks. I have NEVER had trouble loading your blog or the pictures/slideshow. PS, your blogs are not to long, I enjoy them all. There is a cure for the ones that think they are too long and a saying about a door on your way out lol. Have a good day.
Hi Gary, of course RVSue, and all!
Gary, what I do is subscribe to her blog so I get an email every time she posts. Then click on the link in the email and go straight to the single post. That way it takes almost no time to load! It does take a long time if you just go straight to rvsueandcrew.com.
RVSue, you might be able to input how many posts you want to show per page (say seven – ten) and that should alleviate the problem. I know you can with blogger but have never used WP. Hope this helps. No one should ever miss out on your blog and I swear I'm routing for you all the way when you talk about monetizing.
Which brings me to… I've read before Word Press doesn't allow it too but also read someone who had no problems. RVSue, maybe you could look into affiliate programs where ever you like to shop. Online sites often have "affiliate" links on the bottom for you to fill out info, get a number and link to use on your blog. Then when someone buys from their store after clicking the link on your blog you get a commission. It's a win win I think!
As always, I wish you the best and thank you so much for all you do and your wonderful blog! Huggers to the fur babies too!
I did find a place to limit the number of pages upon loading. Thanks for all the encouragement. I may "monetize" in the future.
I saw the dog park in a local TV ad for insurance or something, but I didn't know where it was located.
Have had the flu for a week now and still feel awful–this is a bad one. We've been warned to cover out plants and water spigots on Saturday as the temp will be droping here in Phoenix to the 20s. Old Man Winter sure has come with a viciousness this year. Stay healthy and warm.
Hope you feel better soon, Pat.
Sounds like you have everything you need to wait out the storm. We had an entire day of rain, which we really needed, and now warmer temperatures and blue skies with the most beautiful clouds. But, tomorrow winter is set to return. Texas weather is never dull. I hope Bridget said "thank you" for her smellfest.
Watch out for the windstorms, they can be very dangerous. Many people are not aware of "valley Fever" but it is a real threat here in Arizona. If you MUST be out when the dust blows wear a handkerchief or mask to protect your airways. Read this: http://cronkitenewsonline.com/2012/08/dust-storms-have-medical-group-highlighting-valley-fever-threat/ Take care Sue. It is a serious thing, these blowing winds.
I am aware of valley fever but I'm glad you reminded us all. Another one of my pet peeves is when walking the crew on a dusty, sandy road, someone roars by us, kickiing up a cloud. I've even waved people to slow down as they approach and I always cover my nose and mouth until the dust settles.
A friend of mine in Tucson got it. And a year or two later his dog got it!! Know the symptoms just in case.
Another reason for me to get grumpy when motorhomes, OHVs and other vehicles drive too fast in the desert! Three years? How terrible!
I'm using Chrome browser on a nexus 10 tablet with a marginal Wi-Fi connection – have had no problems loading your blog. Occasionally, the slideshows take awhile to load, but that's understandable and nothing has ever locked up on me.
Hang on to those little dogs in that high wind – if hate to hear that they went flying!
Thank you, Anne, for helping me figure out what's going on with some people having trouble loading my blog.
Today, all is calm here. Hope all is well with you!
the google chrome browser opens your site just fine, but the old explorer browser stalls. no problems. and yes, it did seem to start a couple weeks back. no problems on my phone.
I have no trouble what so ever down loading any of your blogs. or anyone else's either, never have..
Does it help to hitch up the BLT if the wind is going to be blowing hard? Glad to hear you made it to Yuma and back OK. I had not heard of Valley fever, something to read up on before I start out.
I load thru firefox and it seems about the same as always.
Interesting question . . . First off, it's hard to predict here in the desert if the wind is going to be blowing hard. I found the local forecasts to be very unreliable. I don't think I'd want to hitch up as a way to keep stable… I wonder if staying hitched and having the trailer weight on the hitch while it rocks is good for the tires and suspension.. I don't know.
I've been having trouble with your blog taking forever to load and using too much memory too (Windows XP and Firefox and IE). I first noticed it after you said you added that Amazon thing to your blog so thought it had something to do with that. Keep warm and stay well. I always wonder how people keep their plumbing from freezing during these cold snaps. Hope that doesn't happen to you.
Hi Sue – glad you obtained your provisions, gave the kids their outing and are hunkered down cozy until the windstorms abate. Here in Rainy BC, today we have had actual sunshine after a prolonged period of rain which tends to feel as if one is living in an underwater cave which allows scant filtered light. Makes me feel positively sluggish and ugly in mood! But not today – very upbeat.
If people are having problems reading/downloading your blog, it would be because of a problem on their end and nothing to do with your site. Granted sometimes Word Press might be glitchy if the owners are updating or something on their domain but most of the time it will be what device your readers are using or what browser they are using. I've read your blog using my computer, my laptop on various wifi, and my kindle and have never had a problem accessing any of it. Including the slide shows.
Hey Sue, never had any issues loading your blog, even slideshows, using both my MAC at home and iPad (with 3G and WiFi) on the road.
Not computer savy but all the tech gurus are worried about Java stuff and telling govt offices to take it off their computers.
Scritches to the crew and "Keep on Keepin On". Love your blog for it's writing and information, thanks!
Hi Sue: I don't have any problems with loading your blog or pictures. I have windows 7 and use interenet explorer, and have wireless connection. Thats all I know…I am pretty computer illiterate. lol.

As a fun little introduction to the course, I'd like all of you to contribute to our course map. The goal here is to create an interactive map showing where everyone is located and to have some basic details about the makeup of the course. Along the way you'll get a little bit of experience with the mapping platform we'll be using for lab assignments.
First, click here to launch ArcGIS Online.
Once the map has loaded, navigate to your home location using your mouse or search for a place using the search box. Then click on the notepad/pencil icon and click the purple Participant pin in the map legend to select it as the feature you'd like to add to the map.
When you place your mouse cursor over the map now, you should see a little instruction box telling you to click in order to add your point to the map. Find your home on the map and click that spot to add your pin.
After you add a pin, you'll see a popup box with three fields to populate. The first asks you to choose your age range, the second asks you to state your gender, and the third which says "UseMaps" is where I'd like you to write a sentence saying how you use maps. I think it'll be really interesting to see what people all over the world answer to that question.
When you've added your answers, just click the X to close the pop-up and you're all set. You've added your pin to our course map! We'll be using this map as part of our discussion assignment in Week 1, so it'll come in handy right away.
I Put My Point In The Wrong Place, Now What?!
It's not a big deal, just add another point in the right spot. I've set it up so that you cannot delete anything, otherwise some awesome internet person would probably start deleting everyone's points and ruining our fun.

August is here and Broadbeach has already started to gear itself up for the upcoming Broadbeach Jazz Festival 2013. Preparations are in full swing for the event that is scheduled to be held from 16th – 18th August (Friday- Sunday). Through out the year a large number of events are held all across the Gold Coast region in Australia with the Broadbeach Jazz Festival being one of the major events. This internationally acclaimed event organised by the award winning team Broadbeach Alliance successfully unites Jazz lovers from various parts of the globe.
This year's annual Broadbeach Jazz Festival will witness many top Jazz artists and bands performing to keep the audience entertained. Some of the featured artists and bands include Kate Ceberano, Liam Burrows Band, Mal Wood & Friends, Garth Ploog Band, Peter Cupples Trio, Andrea Marr & The Funky Hitmen, Tamara O'Callaghan Duo, Emma Hamilton, Mark Watson, Geroge Washingmachine, Corcovado, Aaron West, Ashley Lewis Quartet, Darren Percival, Emma Pask, Grace Knight, James Morrison plus the Queensland Pops Big Band, Australian Army Band, Jazz Perspectives, Ashley Lewis Duo, Jake Barden Quartet ft. Louis Stapleton, Shannon Marshall Trio, Baby Et Lulu, The Genlemen's Swing Club ft. Jeff Duff, Gold Coast Youth Orchestra Big Band among others.
The Broadbeach Jazz Festival 2013 will be held across several venues that would include Broadbeach Mall Stage, Jupiters Hotel & Casino, Surf Parade Stage, Grumpys Barefoot Bar & Grill, Room81 – Sofitel Gold Coast, Alto Cucina & Bar, Wave Corner, Niecon Plaza, TC's – Sofitel Gold Coast, Roving and Mario's Italian Restaurant.
Since the event is known to pull a huge crowd of people from both in and outside Broadbeach, this will be a time when most Broadbeach accommodations would remain booked. However, the entire area is teeming with a wide variety of holiday accommodations that fit budget of every range. Locating an accommodation that is withing walking distance to the Festival venues is not a difficult task. Book your stay with the Phoenician Resort, situated near to the Gold Coast Convention Centre and enjoy this incredible music festival to its fullest.
This three day long music festival will feature various outdoor stages with the artists and bands performing in multiple venues all across Broadbeach. People will not be required to purchase tickets as the event is completely free. It is only the Jazz with the Stars show to be held in Jupiters Hotel & Casino that is a ticketed event. With an array of some of the top Australian Jazz artists and bands performing in this much anticipated event, fans will have no dearth of options. A number of ways including public transport can be accessed to reach the venues. The Broadbeach Jazz Festival takes pride in being a family friendly event.


Since the 1960s, poetry in French has been understood in terms of two competing approaches: searching for 'presence' on the one hand, 'littéralité' - refiguring the everyday - on the other. Contemporary forms of both are found in this anthology, from the 'new lyricism' of Bonhomme and Maulpoix to the refracted politics of 'post-poetry' in Tarkos and Gleize. The dichotomy, however, quickly breaks down and many poets refuse to be categorised in this way: recent publications include the interdisciplinary and collaborative work of poets such as Alferi, Chaton, Game and Macher; the focus on formal constraint in Métail and Espitallier; Portugal's exploration of the impact of new technologies. Writing the Real features 18 key contemporary French-language poets alongside English translations by leading poets and translators. Since the end of the Second World War, there has been relatively little dialogue between French and British poetry. Featuring some of the leading Francophone and Anglophone poets of our time, this anthology looks to challenge that trend.
Nina Parish is a Senior Lecturer in French Studies at the University of Bath, UK. Her research interests include twentieth and twenty-first-century French literature and the visual arts and in particular modernism, the avant-gardes, modern and contemporary poetry (including digital practice) and the artists book. She has published a monograph (Henri Michaux: Experimentation with Signs (Rodopi, 2007)) and various articles on these subjects. With Emma Wagstaff (see entry below), she co-edited, alongside Hugues Azérad and Michael G. Kelly, Poetic Practice and the Practice of Poetics in French since 1945 (spec. iss. of French Forum, 37, 1-2 (2012), and Chantiers du poèmes : Prémisses et pratiques de la création poétique contemporaine (Oxford: Peter Lang, 2012). From 2012 to 2015, Nina Parish and Emma Wagstaff organized an international research network, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, on interdisciplinary connections in contemporary French poetic practice. Emma Wagstaff is lecturer in French at the University of Birmingham, UK, where she specializes in modern and contemporary French poetry and the connections between literature and the visual arts in the modern period. She has published various articles on these subjects, as well as Provisionality and the Poem: Transition in the Work of Du Bouchet, Jaccottet and Noël (Amsterdam: Rodopi, 2006) and Writing Art: French Literary Responses to the Work of Alberto Giacometti (Oxford: Peter Lang, 2011).

Fifty Shades of Blue
By Miles Jordan
Anthony Geraci might be a new name for West Coast audiences, but 40 years ago the Connecticut-born pianist began gracing the stage, backing up dozens of blues men and women—e.g., Muddy, Buddy, B.B., Big Mama Thornton—and recording as an original member of Ronnie Earl & the Broadcasters and Sugar Ray and the Bluetones, to name just two groups. He also has a slew of CDs out on a variety of labels. He's joined on his latest, Fifty Shades of Blue, by a rotating crew that includes harpist/vocalist Sugar Ray Norcia on six songs, including the lively title track and the ballad "Your Turn to Cry"; Darrell Nulisch on three songs (my favorite is the very soulful "Cry a Million Tears"—another weeper!—with a great solo by Geraci); and guitarist Monster Mike Welch, whose playing enhances every number and who really shines on the two instrumentals, especially the lively "In the Quicksand, Again." "Blues for David Maxwell," which closes the disc, is Geraci's tribute to the late blues pianist.

I had promised myself I would not blog again until I had finished x, y, and z, and while x and y are finished, z (an essay about J.M. Coetzee's memoir-novels) is beating me up and winning.
But I'm going to pause in the fight for a moment and break my self-promise because today I discovered Aaron Bady's astoundingly excellent blog Zunguzungu via a marvelous post Bady wrote at The Valve about Chinua Achebe and the African Writers Series (a post that previously appeared on Zunguzungu).
...what I find most interesting in Achebe is his attention not to questions of who is right and who is wrong (since every perspective is flawed and mediated) but his exploration of how official truths are produced, which TFA as novel becomes a vehicle for. Or, in Arrow of God , his interest in how official truths get subverted when they don't "work" the way they're supposed to. In both cases, it seems like he manages to make any conception of "representation" take on so much water, so fast, that you're left, like Foucault reading criminology texts, scratching your head and trying to figure out how people come to believe the things they do, instead of trying to figure out what the correct belief should be.
In Tanzania, you learn that you're an mzungu when children shout "zunguzungu!" and follow you around, and in California you learn to forget because they aren't there to remind you. But you still are, so I've kept the name, even though I'm now writing about other things. And I won't define what it means, because you can if you want, and words aren't so easily corralled into order as it might sometimes seem, thank goodness. And anyway, it's not such a bad thing to be, really. They were delighted to see me, and I was delighted to see them, if not for the same reasons.
I could keep quoting all night. I won't. I have a z to keep working on before I let myself return to this here province. Meanwhile, you should be reading Aaron Bady.

Last time we learnt about addition and we concluded that expressing exception would be the best point for discussion in this issue.
Exception is the opposite of addition, indicating a 'subtraction' from a total. We express it by using a number of prepositions, such as: 'except', 'except for', 'apart from', 'bar', 'but'.
However, be very careful, as even is also closely related to the notion of addition: "He can speak several languages; he even claims to speak Chinese ('that, as well as all the others').
What are the two most important things you can do to build increasing amounts of targeted traffic to your site?
First, never stop creating high-quality content, which can bring you opportunities for top search engine (SE) rankings.
Second, start attracting "votes of confidence" in your content by bringing it to the attention of your social media fans and followers. Many of these people will link to your pages from their sites or share your content socially.
Once I've built the home page and the first two Tier 2 pages, I had to verify the ownership of my website with the search engines, and then I submitted my sitemap to Google and Bing. If you don't do this, you may not get into a search engine's database, which means you are invisible to millions of people on the Web.
Every time you publish a page (optimized with the help of Analyze It!), your sitemap file rebuilds. SBI! then "pings" (notifies) Google and Bing once a day to let them know about any changes to your site (new pages, edited pages; for deleted pages, the engines are pinged immediately).
There is such a thing as the SpiderWatcher, which checks your site's log files regularly, looking to see which of the major engines' spiders have visited your pages.
After your page has been submitted, spidered, and listed, you need to check Search Engine HQ's Keyword Searches Report to find out the keywords and search queries for which your site and pages are ranking at the search engines. Good results tell you what's going right and give you something to build upon. Poor outcomes show you what needs to be fixed.
What's next? You guessed it! Publish more reputation-building content, both on your website and beyond it. Build a strong social media presence to spread the word about you and your business, and generate those important "social signals" for the engines.
Writing quality content for an influential blog or website, for example, not only gets you in front of that audience, it generates a rank-boosting link from the other site back to your site.
Every 3-4 weeks, take a moment to update Search Engine HQ's Keyword Ranking Report so that you can track your site's performance at the search engines. As you start to see results, you will return to check for each spider's visit and to evaluate the performance of your pages less and less often. Why will you do it less often?
Because you will be busy publishing more content, developing more trust and loyalty from your audience, and generally growing your reputation as an authority in your niche.
It may take 2-3 months for traffic to start growing, but your efforts will pay off if you have followed the Action Guide and the articles in the Tips and Techniques HQ. You will start to rank well for a few pages at one engine, and then more and more pages at different engines.
As you continue to build out your site's content and reputation, you will receive increasing volumes, month-on-month, of targeted traffic.
Working with the search engines is essential. However, while it can be useful to occasionally check how your pages are faring, do not allocate more than a half- hour per week to monitor search engine performance. Invest your time on more important tasks to serve your visitors and your business best.
Realize that you will never rank highly for all your pages at all the engines. So if you have a ranking in the Top 10 at one engine for any page, and you are happy with the Analyze It! report for that page, move on.
I'm proud to announce that I found a more advanced game for you to practise your verb tenses in complete sentences.
You will be shown a sentence and just above it you have 4 multiple choice type of questions, for you to point out the correct combination of the tense, mood and form of the verb in it. Once you're sure you've selected the right options, you need to 'submit' your choice and the machine will tell you immediately if you're right or not.
OK, above we have the verb 'drive' in the form 'I'll drive'. Let's just say that we leave the options as they are: 'will + continuous', to see what happens.
Should you want to change them, you need to click on the four buttons above the Tense Name and they lift, as you disengage them.
So, we're being told that it's wrong, but we're not given the correct answer. Instead, we are prompted to try our hand at it again and that's what I call good practice.
This one says 'present simple', but this is not present (given 'will'), and in no way 'simple'!
You guessed right: 'will' indicates the future tense; 'be used' indicates the passive; and 'being' indicates the continuous aspect.
And so it goes, until you've covered 10 sentences correctly. At the end you get the points you've accumulated and a chance to play another game.
I'm so tired to end the game, that I think I'll add the end bit at a later stage.

Being born in '88, the original Star Trek series starring William Shatner had long stopped running and the new series Next Generation starring Sir Patrick Stewart was in full swing. It wasn't until TNG hit the daily reruns on the BBC that I got my first taste of Star Trek, mind you I could not have been more than 8 years old at the time.
As a young adult now I look back at the shows with a great sense of nostalgia and joy and have come to admire the original two Captains of the Enterprise for their influence on previous and current generations. I'm not a trekkie, as I have never been to a convention or felt the need to sport Spock ears, but I am for sure a fan.
So let's be honest about this, would I have watched Shatner's The Captains if it weren't for so many fond childhood memories? No. Would I have enjoyed it if it weren't for said memories? No. Is it a quality documentary by its own right? No. Is William Shatner a talented or even competent interviewer? No, although the other reviewers would disagree with me on that one. From my point of view Shatner makes some basic and rookie mistakes in his technique as an interviewer, best shown during his interview with Avery. So is it all just a wash and 90 mins of my life wasted on a pursuit of childhood nostalgia? No, and here's why.
What Shatner does in The Captains, is to give us a look into his own Star Trek experience. What it was like as the first captain, what it did to him at the time and in the years after. How it affected his personal life (failed marriage with three kids) and how he has struggled to give Kirk a place in his life. Shatner's journey of discovery is deeply personal as he, with the help of his fellow captains and Stewart in particular, comes to terms with the legacy he will eventually leave behind when Scotty beams him up one final time. This theme of mortality works brilliantly as a stark contrast to the immortality of the Star Trek franchise as it lives on to this day still.
The Captains gives us fans a never before seen glimpse into Shatner's mind and heart. It is dirty and messy at times, but always honest and genuine.
P.S. To Shatner and all the captains, much love and appreciation for your work.

Will Starbucks Succeed in Milan? Why aren't there any Starbucks in Italy? It's a question that comes up often when visiting as most travelers are used to seeing one on every corner these days. I have always felt a sense of pride for Italy that they've held off for so long (that is until next month). Don't get me wrong, a White Mocha from Starbucks is one of my favorite indulgences, but I think it's safe to say even the most diehard Starbucks addict won't miss it in Italy! My understanding is Starbucks never ventured into the Italian market out of respect for Italy's special coffee culture as well as uncertainty as to whether they could compete with the local cafes. Time will tell how Starbucks does in the land of cafes and cappuccinos! After all, the coffee culture in Italy is second to none. Since the Italian cafe menu may look a little different to what you're used to, here is a cheat sheet to help you navigate the Italian coffee scene.
