MOON TRINE VENUS [3:03 am pdt/ 4:03 am mdt/ 5:03 am cdt/ 6:03 am edt] is a sweet morning and pre-dawn. Its almost sensuous, like soft sheets and deeply beautiful pinks on soft things, pretty pies with flowers nearby.
MERCURY IS NOW RETROGRADE for three weeks. I'll share more on this mercury cycle in tomorrow's blog. This is a more productive than usual mercury retrograde. And a magical time for reviewing, redoing, re-organizing and cleaning out the closets! Cleaning and re-aligning can bring unexpected magic or syncronicities–enjoy!
SUN INCONJUNCT SATURN [2:40 pm pdt] is a potentially awkward aspect related to tempers, anger, authority. Its good to keep our own temper tempered, and claim our own authority in every situation. Claiming our own authority means we do not give power in the form of "authority," outside of our own inner voice. We give our inner voice, our intuition, and our own divine "God-self," as much as we can access–our authority. If we notice that we've accidentally placed it on someone else outside of us, we can take it back, even if its awkward–do it. take back your power. Your authority to decide, judge and define is yours.
SUN OPPOSITE MARS [10:13 pm pdt] is a late night action aspect. There is a lot going on for an evening before Friday. This will be a volatile transformational weekend. May we all manage our own energy and the energy of others with temperance and grace nomatter what happens.
This is a cathersis weekend. Today is a peaceful preparation VOID.
Author's NOte: THANK YOU to all those who donate here to help feed the wolf pack! We are soooo grateful. We howl for you and they eat better because of you! Thank youuuuuuooooooooo!

This is a simple Spark bot to query the status of a web service. Its use is not limited to CMX Cloud health checking but that is the focus of this project.

## Demo

[![cmxcheck sparkbot demo](readme_resources/cmxcheck_demo_thumb.jpg)](https://youtu.be/zDWVMBLwxaY)

## Components

1. bot/bot.py: top level bot code built from the boilerplate_sparkbot repo.
2. bot/helpers/checker.py: function that retrieves the HTTP status of a given host.

## How to Use

The bot can be activated by starting a conversation with **cmxcheck@sparkbot.io**

1. User tells bot - "check host.domain.com"
2. Bot initiates one (or maybe a few) round(s) of checks against host.domain.com via the function in checker.py
3. Bot returns text to user - "the response code from <host.domain.com> was <http-response-code>

## Supported commands

* check
* /help: get help
* /echo: mirror the user's input

## In Development

1. Test branch and pipeline buildout.
2. Improve error checking.
3. Improve status code feedback to user.
4. Add more checks.
    * RTT
    * DNS
    * SRV
5. CMX API integration for stats

The District of 100 Mile House is assuming ownership of the 100 Mile Community Hall and committing to an extensive renovation and upgrade. The decision to take over the hall was made at the June 14 council meeting and approved by a unanimous vote. The District has entered into a purchase agreement with the Community Club Society, for a nominal cost of $1.00, to be finalized on September 1, 2022. Ensuring the community has a suitable, cost-effective indoor venue for large, in-person events is one of the project's primary goals.
"The District is excited to work with the Community Club Society on this project," says 100 Mile House Mayor Mitch Campsall. "A multi-use facility in the downtown core is good for our local economy, our residents' quality of life, and all the groups and individuals who will be able to utilize the space for events."
Better, Bigger Venue
Since 1954 the 100 Mile Community Hall has been owned and operated by the 100 Mile Community Club Society. Society President Linda Jefferson says "the hall has been renovated and updated with grant monies and donations over the years, but the time is right for an ownership change and a major upgrade.
We are pleased to have the District of 100 Mile House take over the community hall. Our members are looking forward to seeing, "Our Community Gathering Place" renovated and updated to meet the needs of our growing town."
Remediation Costs Prohibitive
After receiving professional advice regarding cost and feasibility, proposed remediation work on the Lodge and Valley Room will not move forward. Flooding and water ingress to the buildings in recent years has resulted in significant damage. Costs to bring them back up to code (including asbestos removal) are estimated at more than $1 million. However, the Lodge will be preserved as an important piece of the community's local history and heritage.
Rationale Behind Decision
Declining membership and revenues for the 100 Mile House Community Hall Society, plus the significant expense to bring the Lodge and Valley Room back up to code are key factors in the decision. The proposed community hall updates offer more space, additional parking, and a convenient downtown location for events and gatherings.
No Change to Tax Rates
Existing funds for the project have been identified in the District's capital budget. No changes to tax rates with this capital project moving forward are anticipated.

Did Itunes just remove some audiobooks? Where should I buy it now?
I just checked and I saw the book you want in the iTunes Store. Maybe check again?
I checked like cooker_girls, but I can't find that audiobook on iTunes either. I see the ebook, and the audiobook for LA Confidential, but no Cold Six Thousand. In the US, if that makes a difference.
The nice thing about Audible is that having a membership makes getting lots of audiobooks much much cheaper. They routinely do sales of 3 credits for around $40 (which usually translates into 3 audiobooks) or sales of selected items for $5 each or 2 books for 3 credits, etc. And if you get an ebook version, generally the Audible audiobook gets heavily discounted, so you can have both formats at once! (This is especially useful when following Amazon daily ebook sales--get an ebook for $2 and the audio version for $5.) If you don't get audiobooks much, it might not be as good a deal for you, but if you want to get around 1 audiobook a month, it'll be around $16.37 an audiobook, which is much cheaper than buying it without a membership. I do a lot of bus commuting and walking and listening during housework, so it's been a real boon for me.
My iPod Touch has an Audible app that works pretty well for downloading the audiobooks, playing them, and keeping track of the place. You can also download it to your computer and sync it with iTunes, if you want to switch back and forth between computer and iPod. My boyfriend has a cheap Sansa Clip that he uses, so that's an option if you want a player with tons of cheap disk space (it can be expanded with an SD card), but sometimes that hardware forgets where it is, unfortunately.
Audible.com does download long books as multiple mp3s. I don't recall if it keeps the bookmark when you switch to music if you use Itunes, though.
You can use iTunes with audiobooks from other sources. Here's how.
Also Random House still has a link to it in iTunes, though the link doesn't work. So maybe it's an error on Apple's part. So it might be worth dropping them an email asking what's up, if you prefer to buy through them.
I'm seeing it in iTunes also.
Oh, sorry, that's the e-book, not the audiobook.
Audible should work the way you want. They have a program that downloads audiobooks straight into iTunes, where they will end up under audiobooks. You can then put them on your iPod. Sometimes a book is broken up into two parts (or three for something really long), but it's not like a separate file for every chapter. Your iPod will also keep track of where you are in the book, even if you switch to music.
Audible audio books play on so many different devices that the DRM doesn't really matter - as mentioned above, they work with iTunes, there are players for iPhones and Android, PCs and Macs, and a slew of mp3 players - I play them on my Sansa Clip Plus and my Archos 48. You might have issues if your only home computer is Linux though.
Sorry, jferg is right. They are multiple music files, but they aren't actually mp3s.
As for how many files that will be, it depends. I have some books that are broken up into individual chapters, and some that are broken up into two or more parts.... and some 8 hour long ones that aren't broken up at all.

HURST ENTERPRISES, LLC, d/b/a
MR. PAYROLL CHECK CASHING,
BRYAN CRAWFORD, an individual,
CACTUS ROOFING, LLC,
K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) does not apply to situations where a holder in due course has fully completed its performance of consideration for an instrument.
Appeal from Seward District Court; KIM R. SCHROEDER, judge. Opinion filed December 19, 2008. Reversed and remanded with directions.
Nathan A. McCaffrey, of Yoxall, Antrim, Yoxall, Fitzgerald & McCaffrey, LLP, of Liberal, for appellant.
No appearance by appellees.
Before McANANY, P.J., GREEN and BUSER, JJ.
GREEN, J.: Hurst Enterprises, LLC, d/b/a Mr. Payroll Check Cashing, (Hurst) appeals from the trial court's judgment applying the formula under K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) to limit Hurst's recovery as a holder in due course against Bryan Crawford and Cactus Roofing, LLC (Cactus). Hurst argues that the trial court erred in applying a setoff under K.S.A. 84-3-302(d). We agree. K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) does not authorize a trial court to reduce the award to a holder in due course when the holder in due course has paid the full consideration for a check to the payee. As a result, we reverse and remand to the trial court with instructions to enter a judgment against Crawford and Cactus and in favor of Hurst for $4,768.47.
On September 24, 2005, Cactus issued a check to "Espino Roofing and/or Tomas Hernandez" for $4,768.47 for roofing work that Hernandez and his roofing crew had performed for Cactus. That morning, Hernandez cashed the check at Mr. Payroll in Liberal. Hernandez had previously cashed three other checks from Cactus at Mr. Payroll. All three of the checks had cleared the bank without any problems. Mr. Payroll paid Hernandez the amount of the check less a 1 percent check cashing fee of $47.68. Mr. Payroll deposited the check into its account at Bank of the Panhandle in Guymon, Oklahoma.
Approximately 1 day after issuing the check to Hernandez, Bryan Crawford, the operator of Cactus, received a call that there were moisture leaks on the project on which Hernandez had worked. Crawford discovered that the work performed by Hernandez and his roofing crew had not been adequately completed. After unsuccessfully trying to contact Hernandez, Crawford placed a stop payment on the check he had written to Hernandez. Cactus had to spend approximately $4,500 repairing the work done by Hernandez and his roofing crew.
Mr. Payroll later received the check back from its bank with notification that a stop payment had been issued. Anica Slater, the manager of Mr. Payroll, called Cactus' bank and discovered that the stop payment had been issued 3 days after Hernandez had cashed the check at Mr. Payroll.
In April 2006, Hurst sued the appellees for $4,768.47 plus interest. Hurst alleged that it was entitled to payment because it was a holder in due course of the check it had received from Hernandez. The trial court determined that Hurst had met the statutory and factual requirements to be a holder in due course under K.S.A. 84-3-302. Nevertheless, the trial court determined that the appellees were entitled to a set-off under K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) because of the partial performance by Hernandez and his roofing crew. Based on Crawford's testimony that he had spent $4,500 to repair the roofing work, the trial court found that the value of the partial performance by Hernandez and his roofing crew was $268.47. Using the set-off formula under K.S.A. 84-3-302(d), the trial court determined that Hurst was entitled to recover the amount of $267.03 plus court costs.
On appeal, Hurst argues that the trial court erred in applying a setoff under K.S.A. 84-3-302(d). Importantly, Cactus has not appealed the trial court's ruling that Hurst was a holder in due course. "Before an appellee may present adverse rulings to the appellate court it must file a cross-appeal. If the appellee does not, the rulings are not properly before the appellate court and may not be considered." Cooke v. Gillespie, 285 Kan. 748, Syl. ¶ 2, 176 P.3d 144 (2008). Moreover, neither party has challenged the trial court's determination that Hurst was a holder in due course. Cactus has not even filed an appellate brief in this case. As a result, the trial court's ruling that Hurst was a holder in due course is not subject to appellate review.
Moreover, the record in this case supports the trial court's determination that Hurst was a holder in due course. To be a holder in due course under K.S.A. 84-3-302(a), a holder must take the instrument according to the following conditions:
"(1) The instrument when issued or negotiated to the holder does not bear such apparent evidence of forgery or alteration or is not otherwise so irregular or incomplete as to call into question its authenticity; and
"(2) the holder took the instrument (A) for value, (B) in good faith, (C) without notice that the instrument is overdue or has been dishonored or that there is an uncured default with respect to payment of another instrument issued as part of the same series, (D) without notice that the instrument contains an unauthorized signature or has been altered, (E) without notice of any claim to the instrument described in K.S.A. 84-3-306, and (F) without notice that any party has a defense or claim in recoupment described in K.S.A. 84-3-305(a)."
The record in this case establishes that Hurst took the check for value; in good faith; and without any notice that it was overdue, had been dishonored, or that there was an uncured default or that there were any other defenses. Hurst paid Hernandez $4,720.69 for the check, which represented $4,768.47 less the 1 percent check cashing fee of $47.68. When Hurst gave Hernandez value for the check, there was nothing to indicate that the check would be dishonored. In fact, Hurst had previously cashed three other checks issued by Cactus to Hernandez. All three of those checks had cleared the bank without any problems. When Hurst gave Hernandez value for the check at issue in this case, Cactus had not yet placed a stop payment order on the check. Hurst had no knowledge that Hernandez had failed to adequately perform the services for which the check was written. Based on the evidence presented at trial, there was substantial competent evidence to support the trial court's determination that Hurst was a holder in due course under K.S.A. 84-3-302.
The question remaining in this case is whether K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) authorized the trial court to reduce the award to Hurst (the holder in due course) when Hurst had paid the full consideration to Hernandez (the payee). This issue requires interpretation of K.S.A. 84-3-302(d). Interpretation of a statute presents a question of law over which an appellate court's review is unlimited. Genesis Health Club, Inc. v. City of Wichita, 285 Kan. 1021, 1031, 181 P.3d 549 (2008).
The most fundamental rule of statutory construction is that the intent of the legislature governs if that intent can be ascertained. Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska v. Kline, 283 Kan. 64, 77, 150 P.3d 892 (2007). An appellate court's first task is to "ascertain the legislature's intent through the statutory language it employs, giving ordinary words their ordinary meaning." State v. Stallings, 284 Kan. 741, 742, 163 P.3d 1232 (2007). When a statute is plain and unambiguous, a court does not speculate as to the legislative intent behind it and will not read the statute to add something not readily found in it. In re K.M.H., 285 Kan. 53, 79, 169 P.3d 1025 (2007).
K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) states:
"If, under K.S.A. 84-3-303(a)(1), the promise of performance that is the consideration for an instrument has been partially performed, the holder may assert rights as a holder in due course of the instrument only to the fraction of the amount payable under the instrument equal to the value of the partial performance divided by the value of the promised performance."
Under its plain language, K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) applies to those situations where the consideration for an instrument has been partially performed. There appear to be no Kansas cases that involve the application of K.S.A. 84-3-302(d). Moreover, Hurst has not cited any cases from other jurisdictions that have applied K.S.A. 84-3-302(d). The Official UCC Comment, however, provide an illustration as to the type of situation to which subsection (d) applies:
"Case #5. Payee negotiates a $1,000 note to Holder who agrees to pay $900 for it. After paying $500, Holder learns that Payee defrauded Maker in the transaction giving rise to the note. Under subsection (d) Holder may assert rights as a holder in due course to the extent of $555.55 ($500 / $900 = .555 x $1,000 = $555.55). This formula rewards Holder with a ratable portion of the bargained for profit."
The Official UCC Comment clarifies that subsection (d) of K.S.A. 84-3-302 is applicable when there has been a partial performance of consideration for the instrument by the holder in due course. Such is not the case here. Hurst had completed its performance of consideration for the check when it gave Hernandez $4,720.69. There was no partial performance of consideration for the check by Hurst.
In determining that K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) applied to this case, the trial court incorrectly focused on Hernandez' partial performance (his defective work) of his job with Cactus. K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) does not cover partial performance by the payee. The Kansas Comment, 1996 to K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) makes clear that this subsection is limited to those situations where the holder in due course has partially paid the agreed upon consideration for the instrument:
"Subsection (d) clarifies the calculation of recovery where the claimant is a partial holder in due course because not all of the agreed upon consideration has been paid, and the defendant only has a defense. The holder can assert holder in due course status only to the extent of the actual performance of consideration, over the value of the agreed consideration times the face value of the instrument. Thus if the holder has paid $30 of an agreed consideration of $90 for an instrument with a face value of $100, the holder is a holder in due course to the extent of $33 (30/90 x $100). To preserve the obligor's defense, while still protecting the holder in due course, the holder's collection should be allocated against the portion of payment to which there is no defense. Thus, if the obligor had a defense to $80 of the payment above, the defense would protect payment only of $66, and the partial holder in due course would recover $33."
Here, because Hurst paid Hernandez the entire amount of the agreed upon consideration for the check, K.S.A. 84-3-302(d) does not apply. The issue of the quality of the work that Hernandez performed for Cactus does not affect Hurst's rights as a holder in due course. When Hurst discovered that Cactus had placed a stop payment order on the check, it had already paid Hernandez the full consideration for the check. As a result, Hurst was a holder for value in the full amount of the check. Because Hurst had paid all of the agreed upon consideration to Hernandez, it was entitled to recover the full amount of the check ($4,768.47) from Cactus. Accordingly, we reverse the trial court's judgment and remand the case to the trial court with instructions to enter a judgment against Crawford and Cactus and in favor of Hurst for $4,768.47.

Still need some quick gifts to make? Try these!
Chocolate Cookies & Cream Cookies (Jessica @ My Baking Heart) - Double the cookies in this recipe means double the fun!
Homemade Peppermint Marshmallows (Jen @ Beantown Baker) - This was on my list to make this year but alas, next year I'm tackling it for sure!
Double Ginger Crackles (Erin @ Erin's Food Files) - Ginger is one of those flavors I especially love during the holidays..
Baked Chai French Toast (Kelly @ The Pink Apron) - I love the use of chai in this recipe!
Family - Joel celebrated his first Christmas this week and it was certainly a fun one to remember. I've never seen such a happy, giggly baby and I'm so blessed that this one is all mine.
Our families aren't especially big on gift giving for Christmas and we tend to fill our holiday table with more food than gifts that fill the bottom of a tree. With Joel sharing his first Christmas with us, it certainly made it more special. To see the brightness in his eyes while we opened up his first envelope gift (thank you Grandma & Grandpa!) and first Christmas gift (thank you Megan, Matt & Will!) was a beautiful thing.
As a family, we decided on one large Christmas gift rather than small ones for each other. We previously drove my beloved Mini Cooper S, which was pretty impractical with a baby... so we got ourselves a brand spanking new 2011 Scion XB which much more practical. It's big enough for all our needs and then some, yet small enough for city living.
Overall, it was a fantastic Christmas full of blessings all around... and we hope you had a wonderful Christmas too!
We're all taking a week off from work to spend it with loved ones for the holidays but we will still be working behind the scenes with quite a few logistics. But this past week, we created a Facebook Page along with a Twitter Page. Please follow us as we count down and prepare for our soft opening in a couple of weeks. You can also jump in our discussions on restaurant musings too!
That shrimp dish for your restaurant looks delicious!


I have been very lucky to have some wonderful teachers in my life, both as a child as an adult. This little craft always reminds me of one of my favourite years in primary school. Year 3, in the class known as "3BC". I was turning eight, it was 1986 and life was good. Miss Cosh and Mr Bentley were a big part of that. While pipe cleaner critters are probably not the best representation of their teaching awesomeness, they are a little reminder for me of how happy I was that year. Here's how we made them.
You're all done! Now enjoy playing with your critter, or use it as a pencil topper.
too cute. i think Mister Maker did something similar but kept them on pencils and added a feather just for some extra fluffiness!
This is too cute! I'm loving anything and everything with googly eyes lately!

Topics related to constructive mathematics.
In various mathematical forums, mostly those of a logical flavor, I regularly see people asking basic questions about constructive mathematics. I also see misconceptions about constructive mathematics. I shall make a series of posts, Constructive Gems and Stones, which will answer basic questions about constructive mathematics, and will hopefully help fix wrong ideas about constructive mathematics.
A constructive gem is something nice about constructive mathematics that makes you want to know more about it. In contrast, a constructive stone is a complication in constructive mathematics which does not exist in the classical counterpart.
Here we go! The first one is about finite sets.
These are the slides and the extended abstract from my MSFP 2008 talk. Apparently, I forgot to publish them online. There is a discussion on the Agda mailing list to which the talk is somewhat relevant, so I am publishing now.
Abstract: Realizability is an interpretation of intuitionistic logic which subsumes the Curry-Howard interpretation of propositions as types, because it allows the realizers to use computational effects such as non-termination, store and exceptions. Therefore, we can use realizability as a framework for program development and extraction which allows any style of programming, not just the purely functional one that is supported by the Curry-Howard correspondence. In joint work with Christopher A. Stone we developed RZ, a tool which uses realizability to translate specifications written in constructive logic into interface code annotated with logical assertions. RZ does not extract code from proofs, but allows any implementation method, from handwritten code to code extracted from proofs by other tools. In our experience, RZ is useful for specification of non-trivial theories. While the use of computational effects does improve efficiency it also makes it difficult to reason about programs and prove their correctness. We demonstrate this fact by considering non-purely functional realizers for a Brouwerian continuity principle.
Abstract: In the effective topos there exists a chain-complete distributive lattice with a monotone and progressive endomap which does not have a fixed point. Consequently, the Bourbaki-Witt theorem and Tarski's fixed-point theorem for chain-complete lattices do not have constructive (topos-valid) proofs.
Abstract: We formulate a predicative, constructive theory of continuous domains whose realizability interpretation gives a practical implementation of continuous ω-chain complete posets and continuous maps between them. We apply the theory to implementation of the interval domain and exact real numbers.
A tutorial presented at the Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics XXIII Tutorial Day.
Abstract: We investigate the relationship between constructive theory of metric spaces and synthetic topology. Connections between these are established by requiring a relationship to exist between the intrinsic and the metric topology of a space. We propose a non-classical axiom which has several desirable consequences, e.g., that all maps between separable metric spaces are continuous in the sense of metrics, and that, up to topological equivalence, a set can be equipped with at most one metric which makes it complete and separable.

Year in Review: ACE's First Year as a B Corp
Christine Dickson
For KK Byland, American College of Education's human resources director and benefits officer, being a change-maker means taking advantage of opportunities to give back or pay it forward, making a difference where you can, and–potentially–changing the course of someone's life.
With those goalposts in mind, she led the charge for ACE to become the first and only Certified B Corp and Benefit Corporation in the state of Indiana in late fall of 2016. In its inaugural year as a member of the B Corp movement–a crusade to redefine corporate success through the lens of corporate social responsibility–ACE has:
Logged 317 individual civic hours;
Tallied 12 group civic hours;
Marched 911 Charity Miles for Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB), a nonprofit dedicated to reconnecting veterans to their communities;
Donated 715-plus toiletries and more than 20 pounds of pop tabs to Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC);
Given $7,628 in matching donations to myriad organizations, including the Salvation Army following Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria;
Allocated $125,000 to the college's nonprofit partners (School Tools, Treasures 4 Teachers, Kids in Need, Teachers' Treasures, Kappa Delta Pi, A Gift for Teaching, and World Vision) which collectively benefit more than 5 million students.
"It's an honor to be able to make the partnerships that we have and know that we're touching individual lives in ways that we'll probably never know," Byland said, but "it's our duty in a way. We've helped out before and, if we have a continuous opportunity to maintain that contribution, we should. It's important, I think it's worthy, and we know the need is always there."
And just as ACE has taken care to monitor community needs, the college has also worked to make employees feel seen, instituting initiatives like paid parking for office employees, civic hours, paid parental leave, and employee referral bonuses.
Reflecting on the college's strides in uplifting employees and local communities, Byland said "it feels good to be a part of an organization that values that and places that as a high priority."
So, what does 2018 look like for the college?
"We do an employee engagement survey each year," Byland began, celebrating the bump to 94 percent satisfaction among ACE staff and faculty before teasing, "We've listened to suggestions about ways to improve employee benefits and one of the most asked-for benefits is going to be implemented in 2018. I'm doing a coffee chat in January and it will be unveiled then."
As for broader college initiatives, she shared that the idea of incorporating corporate social responsibility, or CSR, into curriculum has been broached. It's a timely conversation as Byland said the subject dominated the 2017 B Corp Champions Retreat in Toronto.
"A lot of schools are beginning to implement CSR into their curriculum…and that's a great opportunity for ACE to be a leader, because we've already checked the boxes on so many things."

Q: error in sending email on button click in asp.net c# I am using visual studio 2012 and asp.net framework 4.5. I want to create a form that whenever the user clicks the submit button an email be should be sent to me. I am using google smtp settings in my coding but I get an error like this "Failure Sending mail". I am pasting my coding for reference

</mailSettings>

I have tried the port as 587 but I get the same error.

A: As somebody already suggested, try checking the Smtp Client credentials before sending the mail. Also i had some problems in the past with SmtpClient.SendAsync. Try to use SmtpClient.Send instead. Otherwise i see really no problem in your code.
Edit: It seems you created 2 SmtpClients. One in page load and one in buttonClick method. Does the second one know the credentials too?

A:     <system.net>

      <network defaultCredentials="false" host="smtp.gmail.com" port="587" userName="Your Email" password="Your Password"></network>

COLWYN BAY face a tough home game against basement battlers Bamber Bridge in the Unibond premier division on Saturday with spirits boosted after Marc Limert's cool finish gave them their first win in 12 games.
COLWYN BAY face a tough home game against basement battlers Bamber Bridge in the Unibond premier division on Saturday with spirits boosted after Marc Limert's cool finish gave them their first win in 12 games on Tuesday night.
It completed a league double over Runcorn Halton, having beaten them 1-0 at home earlier in the season, and delighted manager Colin Caton.
"Deiniol Graham is starting to get his fitness back and ran himself into the ground for the team on Tuesday and we have also benefitted defensively by Glen Graham being available much more often."
Graham and Hogg were solid in the heart of the Bay defence on Tuesday and keeper Paul Smith didn't have a shot to save in the first half.
They went in front after 16 minutes when Deiniol Graham's cross was volleyed spectacularly into the roof of the net from 16 yards by Jason Jones and Bay were unlucky not to increase the lead before half-time with Deiniol Graham hitting the crossbar and having two other efforts well saved by home keeper Mark Winstanley.
Smith made his first save of the match from Dominic Lawley's shot straight after the interval and Runcorn equalised on 54 minutes when Paul McNally's deflected shot beat Smith in a crowded goalmouth for his 18th goal of the season.
But Colwyn Bay won the match with a second goal on 62 minutes as Marc Limbert was sent clear of the Runcorn defence by Deiniol Graham's return pass and coolly beat the advancing keeper with a low shot.
Runcorn mounted a late rally as the referee amazingly played 10 minutes added time, but the Bay defended well and Smith saved well from Alan Cowley in the dying seconds.
This Saturday's opponents Bamber Bridge also won on Tuesday, 1-0 at Marine, to move out of the bottom two in the table and although the Lancashire club have lost their main sponsors and have had to cut wages and release several players, the team have beaten both Marine and Emley and drawn with league leaders Burton Albion in their last three fixtures.
Colwyn Bay will be without Jason Jones and James McIlvogue through suspension, but hope to have Craig Lawton back.


Jen Says: I finished Stephen King's On Writing. It was completely brilliant. You can read about some of my favorite quotes from yesterday's Teachers Write post. I read Goddess Girls Artemis the Loyal by Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams and Guys Read: The Sports Pages. Both were really fun! I started Liar and Spy by Rebecca Stead, too. I'm still listening to Fallen In Love by Lauren Kate...just because I barely find time for audiobooks, but it's good! I did read a few books with my sons from We Give Books, too!
Kellee Says: I had a pretty good week. First, I finished the Captain Underpants series as well as the first book in the Super Diaper Baby series and Ook & Gluk series. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the series so much more than I thought I was going to. I was surprised at how much I found that I could use in the classroom and I will be sharing it next week. Additionally, I read a fantastic fiction graphic novel Cow Boy by Nate Cosby and illustrated by Chris Eliopoulos.
I also read two nonfiction graphic novels put together by the Discovery Channel- Ten Deadliest Sharks and Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Predators by Joe Brusha. They will definitely be a hit in my classroom. They are extremely very well done. In addition to the nonfiction graphic novels, I read a nonfiction book called Attack on Pearl Harbor for summer school that starts today.
Finally, I finished 3 novels and 2 picture books. The 2 picture books I read were One Cool Friend by Tony Buzzeo (which I had to read after reading Jen's review) and Ladybug Girl by David Soman. The 3 novels were for review and I cannot wait to share them with you: Aphrodite the Diva by Joan Holub & Suzanne Williams, Guys Read: The Sports Pages compiled by Jon Sciezska, and Chasing Yesterday by Mike Hays.
Kellee Says: I start teaching summer school today so I have a couple of books I have to read. I already read the Pearl Harbor book for this week. I also started Charlie Joe Jackson's Guide to Not Reading today which is the read aloud my teacher partner already started (and I should finish it soon) and I need to read True Teen Stories for the following week. I also am going to read Chase Against Time by Steve Reifman for review. I also hope to get to From What I Remember like I'd planned last week. OH! And I should finish my audio book, Silverwing, since I'll be driving too and from school. Next to that, I am not sure what I am going to read.
