In honor of the Irish superstar's return to the Octagon at UFC 229 this weekend, we've come up with a special cocktail recipe using the new Conor McGregor whiskey, Proper No. Twelve.
The fighter's first venture into the Irish whiskey game is already generating a ton of buzz, and will be an official sponsor for his fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov, with the brand's logo adorning the canvas. "I'm coming for Jameson!" the former two-division champion proudly proclaimed during the recent UFC 229 press conference.
"I come from a place called Crumlin, in Dublin 12. It's a place dear to my heart. It's where I learned how to fight; it made me who I am today. It's a place I'm still very much a part of every single day of my life. So, that's where the name came from. It's proper Irish whiskey and twelve is my hometown," McGregor said in a release on the launch of Proper No. Twelve. "Growing up on the streets of Dublin 12, I learned the values of loyalty and hard work. I respect other Irish whiskeys, but I am coming in strong, with passion and with purpose. I am the founder of this company and I am going to give it my all."
If you're lucky enough to find a bottle of the new Conor McGregor whiskey, try this new take on an Old Fashioned while cheering on the Irish superstar this weekend.

Products from Bataan are on display at a Christmas trade show.
The province administration has created a Christmas trade fair, which will sell and display a variety of locally manufactured goods.
Thirty micro, small, and medium businesses are taking part in the event, showcasing the province's greatest food and non-food goods.
The Province Cooperative and Enterprise Development Office and the Office of the Provincial Agriculturist are organizing the three-day fair, which will take place on the first floor of The Bunker, which has taken over the Bataan capitol as the new seat of the provincial government.
"Buo ang aking paniniwala na sa ating pagkakaisa ay sama-sama tayong babangon nang may mas matatag at mas masiglang ekonomiya (I have full confidence that through our cooperation, we will rise together with a more stable and lively economy)," Governor Albert Garcia said in an interview on Tuesday.
"Sana'y tangkilikin natin ito at suportahan ang mga lokal na namumuhunan upang sama-sama tayong makaahon sa pandemya, especially this Christmas season," he added.
Plants, flower pots, fruits, vegetables, "tuyo" (dried fish), "tapa" (cured pork), and "bagoong" (shrimp paste), as well as souvenir T-shirts, bags, wallets, and hats, are all available for purchase at the fair.
Salted and sweetened peanuts, cashew nuts, kimchi, cookies, "atsara" (pickles), fried garlic, tamarind, "patis" (fish sauce), peanut butter, flavored mushroom chips, turmeric powder, ginger powder, ginger candy, honey, and "balut" or incubated duck eggs are among the other items available.
Homemade "ensaymada" breads, cheesecakes, cassava cakes, and a variety of personal and household products, including sandals, slippers, rugs, potholders, and chair covers, are also available.

On a beautiful fall Sunday, the Peace of Heart Choir visited St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital in Morningside Heights, near Columbia University. The lone staff member eating lunch in the first floor cafeteria said she didn't mind our warming up within feet of her table, so we made ourselves at home. Then we went upstairs to the day-room of the psychiatric unit.
As always, our pre-concert arrangements interested the audience—the re-arranging of chairs, the moving of the piano, René's tickling the keys and pronouncing it a "fine specimen." Then René introduced the choir, and Gary introduced the South African hymn, Siyahamba, inviting the audience to determine whether this was in Zulu or Africaans.
René started his drumbeat, and we were off. No one weighed in on the language question at the end of the song, but they were obviously engaged. Starting with the next song, John Lennon's Imagine, we invited them to sing along with any of our numbers. No one did, except for the actual sing-alongs, Down by the Riverside and This Land is Your Land. But many clapped along or swayed, and all seemed interested in the introductions.
A few patients walked in and out during our performance, but there was a core who stayed for all eight songs. And though we were a bit sparse on some parts, POHC is nothing if not adaptable. A soprano joined the altos, a first soprano sang second, and, for our Spanish song, Nanita, René sang with the basses. At the end of the concert, we mingled with the audience, all of whom thanked us for coming and said they enjoyed it.
One of the nurses told me she like the a capella songs best, because there was more of a connection with the audience. She also said she loved the songs with the drums. Another staff member asked us to come back for Thanksgiving and Christmas; our Steering Committee Co-Chair, and tenor, Gary talked to her about scheduling for next year.
Before we went our separate ways, we gathered in the street under the St. Luke's sign, and on of our newer sopranos, Noella, posed us with our black folders in our left hands and took our picture for the website. Post-performance smiles at St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital.
It has become a tradition for a member of POHC to do a post-concert write-up. It started when our Sign-up Coordinator began emailing her summaries to the other members in order to entice newer members to sign-up to sing at community concerts held early in the season. It didn't take long for Concert Write-ups to become greatly anticipated amongst our members, so we share them here in hopes that you'll join us at a future concert.

Your lungs have two important jobs. One is to take in needed oxygen. The other is to expel unnecessary carbon dioxide. As we age our lungs have to work a little harder due to changes in the nervous and the immune systems.
In older persons the part of the brain that controls breathing may lose some of its function making breathing more difficult. Nerves in your airways that trigger coughing are not as sensitive as before to particles that can collect such as smoke or germs. With age, a weaker immune system affects the health of your lungs. Your lungs are less able to fight off infection and to recover after exposure to smoke and other harmful particles.
CHF is a chronic condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as well as it should. Heart failure can occur if the heart cannot pump or fill adequately. Symptoms include shortness of breath, fatigue, swollen legs and rapid heartbeat.
COPD blocs air flow. The most common COPD conditions are due to emphysema and chronic bronchitis often caused from consistent exposure to certain environmental factors like dust or chemicals at work and air pollution. Damage to the lungs from these cannot be reversed. But rescue inhalers and inhaled or oral steroids can help control symptoms and minimize breathlessness and further lung damage.
How Can I Live Better With CHF or COPD?
Be sure to take your medicine as prescribed. There are so many medicines like diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, vasodilators, blood pressure and heart medications that help with CHF. Some CHF patients will need a defibrillator or pacemaker to keep the heart pumping regularly. Bronchodilators and steroids help with COPD. Supplemental oxygen may be needed for better breathing.
How Can I Prevent Unnecessary Damage To My Lungs!
Get a flu and pneumonia vaccine.
Get 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise daily for CHF.
Don't smoke! This applies to both CHF and COPD patients.
Lose weight to avoid the complications of obesity. This is good for everyone!
Cut back on salt to no more than 2,400 mg/day for improved heart health.
COPD patients might want to learn yoga breathing techniques to improve airflow.

Twitter users have engaged with the former Commander In Chief's message in droves.
Following the recent events in Charlottesville, Va., former President Barack Obama shared a series of three anti-hate tweets quoting Nelson Mandela.
The first tweet contained a picture of the former president looking into a window at children of multiple races.
Posted on August 12, this frst tweet in the series has quickly become the most liked tweet of all time, with over 3.3 million likes, as of this writing. The second and third tweets in the series currently have 1.3 million and 1.1 million likes, respectively.


If you can't be bothered to read up on the basics of public key encryption but you still want to use PGP or GPG to send and receive digitally signed or encrypted mail, then this article should cover the bare minimum you need to get started.
First, once you have chosen an encryption client and a mailer (I recommend GPG with Thunderbird plus Enigmail), self-signed your key, and generated a public/private keypair, you must make your public key public. If anyone is to verify your signed emails, they must have your public key. If anyone is to send you encrypted emails, they must have your public key. Post your public key on the web or email it to your friends.
Second, you should download the public keys of your friends and add them to your encryption client. If your client has a concept of trust, you should edit the trust of your friends' public keys.
Third, get your friends to sign your key. Key signatures serve as proofs of identify. By signing your key, I am telling the whole world that I believe that you are who you say you are, so they don't have to take just your word for it. This is even more important when you start exchanging signed and encrypted email with people whom you haven't met.
Fourth, sign the keys of your friends.
Fifth, if you are using Enigmail and want to be standards-compliant, change your default settings to always use PGP/MIME.
I am always willing to exchange signed or encrypted email.
For more information, consult the help files of your software.
If you use GMail, then try FireGPG.
If you are still using PGP, you are probably doing it wrong.
Guys, I need to replace my nonfunctional encryption with something that works. I have a hard nonnegotiable deadline of January 20.
Yeah, I gave up on FireGPG. Being able to search my mail is more useful than encrypting it in general. I could just keep unencrypted drafts of emails I receive and hope no one hacks Google or hacks my Google password + second factor.
Since I mentioned 2-factor authentication, anyone hear any updates on whether NIST is really going to remove SMS as a 2nd factor? Even Social Security moved towards requiring SMS 2-factor auth earlier this year (and then stepped back on the requirement, but not for security concerns, but access concerns).
Have you set up a web key directory @jonathan.pearce.name ?
Google is likely to never set up WKD since it's in their interest to keep mail in plain text so they can target advertisements to you based on the content of the mail. It would be nice if they did though. Really though, if two parties both use gmail, then the only person who can really spy on the mail are Google and anyone they cooperate with, which is essentially no one.

Snapfish Wall Calendar : Giveaway : Christmas Postman!
Last year, I wrote about Snapfish and their Photo Calendars.
Since that review, Snapfish have redesigned their interface for creating photo calendars and also upgraded their design apps.
The beautiful thing about the Snapfish service is that you can integrate it with your Facebook / Instagram accounts and use the photos that you have already uploaded. Snapfish apps will allow you to use those photos to design and order products from prints to canvases to mugs, all from your phone or tablet.
For this review, I used my laptop and the Snapfish website. I uploaded the photos, but this was still an easy and quick process. What I wanted to design was one of the Snapfish Photo Calendars.
Uploading the photos was easy. I then had to choose a product. I went for the Large Wall Calendar.
The design process for the photo calendars made good use of the space available. The menu on the far left meant that the sub menu next to it optimised the space on the screen, leaving an uncluttered, clean environment to work in. Very easy to use! The design area itself was very intuative and essentially was just a drag-n-drop method.
You have the option to personalise each day on the calendar if you want to! Handy for putting in photos for special days like birthdays. This is exactly what I did when I designed our calendar for 2016.
Once the design stage is complete, checking out is simple. You can even pay with Paypal, which makes life a lot easier when you don't need to hunt around for your wallet.
I'm looking forward to receiving our Snapfish photo calendar and brightening up our kitchen with our own photos in 2017!
Who wants to win a large wall calendar from Snapfish personalised with your own choice of pics? That's exactly what one lucky winner will get from the Christmas Postman! Enter using the Gleam widget below by midnight 28 November 2016 and you could be getting yourself one in time for the New Year!
1. Closing date is 28 November 2016 at midnight.
2. The prize is one Large Photo Calendar from Snapfish.

The PARQ format is designed to be used BEFORE the patient signs the informed consent document and includes both appropriate time for verbal discussion and proper documentation. (See our best practices blog post on PARQ here and documenting PARQ here.) The use of PARQ protects both the patient and the provider.
While indemnification language may seem like a smart provision for protections, providers are advised to check with their malpractice companies before using it. A chiropractic malpractice insurance carrier we consulted with advises against using this type of language in consent forms; University of Western States does not use indemnification language in its curriculum and advises against using it in practice. Local law firms also warn of the potential fallout if a case were to come before a judge or jury. Further, a provider may not indemnify against negligence when coming before a licensing board.
If you are currently using indemnification language on any of your forms, you are encouraged to consult with your legal counsel.


Contrast is the difference between the brightest bright and the darkest dark in your digital photo. If your digital photos have too much contrast it will cause a loss of delicate shadings and shadows. Whereas too little contrast leaves your photos muddy.


We too! In this blog post we will share a little" know how" in creating your own.
Lush terrariums planted with succulents, ferns, air plants and decorated with twigs and possibly one or two "lego men" have been "en vogue" for a couple of years now.
These gorgeous microcosms are a truly unique house décor or a gift, that are actually very easy to make and to look after.
According to the legend the very first terrarium was a lucky "mistake". Victorian Botanist Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward with a passionate interest in insect behaviour once left one of his Insect jars unattended a fern spore fell in and grew into a plant thus creating the very first terrarium. Instead of the terrarium it was known as Wardian case.
If unlike Mr. Ward you do not have any accidental insect jars lying around, you can find all the necessary equipment at Adonis Flower designers!
When choosing your plants think about the final location of the terrarium. Is it going to be a sunny bright spot or a little shadier corner? Remember that all plants will need some natural light to grow.
Plants suitable for a sunny location are all succulents and cacti.
Plants that would do well in a less bright spot are Ripsalis or Jungle cactus, ferns and Peperomia also air plants will do just fine.
When planting several plants in one terrarium choose ones that thrive in the same conditions and watering regime. For example it is not a good idea to plant a fern and a cactus together since one prefers to be watered less frequently then the other.
At Adonis we have a large selection of various succulents and air plants starting from Echeverias, Aloe humilis, Euphorbias and Crassulas etc. You will not be left short, we promise!
Terrarium care: The watering requirements will depend on the plants you will chose and how warm is your home. It is a good idea to keep an eye on your terrarium the first weeks to figure out the best regime that suits your particular conditions. Basically, check for moisture levels.
Succulents and cacti like to be dried out in between the watering, while ferns prefer to be moist at all times.
Either way the easiest way of watering is misting. In summer when the light levels are up, and plants are actively growing you should add a weak solution of fertilizer to your mister.
A little amount of compost and sand mixture.
Start by lining the terrarium with a bit of moss, because once you hang the terrarium that is what you are going to see and this hides the compost. After scoop in a small amount of mixed compost and sand, plant in your plants, dress them once again with a little bit of moss. Place your decorative twigs, and, Voila, you are a proud owner of your own Terrarium!
Enjoy the making and come and visit us for any further tips or even your own terrarium making kit!


Hey there, my name is Jarod Rodriguez. I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. My hobbies include playing Pokémon Go while hiking with my dog Cody, anything fitness related, and spending long nights in lab watching my girlfriend conduct experiments at Texas A&M.
After my own struggles being 260lbs overweight at the age of 20, I decided to make a drastic change and seek out a healthier lifestyle. In a little over a year experimenting with various diets and exercise programs I was able to drop 100lbs. This has given me a unique position to put myself in the shoes of both sedentary and athletic individuals ranging from the busy worker, the college student, and the fad diet addict. My journey to being fit led me to become a personal trainer and CrossFit coach. I have 7 years in the field and 4 certifications.
Helotes CrossFit stands out compared to all other gyms I have worked at, even including some of the big names. The family atmosphere here is unrivaled. It's more than just a gym here, it's about loving people and giving back. The coaching structure provided by the owner is well balanced with his mission, "be all things to all people." Just like myself, everyone has a story, and my passion is to individually get to know my athletes and help each one along fitness journey.

WWE wrapped up their overseas tour today and they're all headed back to the United States very soon for Raw and SmackDown as the show goes on. But on Superstar, Killian Dane decided to drop by his old stomping grounds before heading back to the USA.
Dane used to destroy foes as Big Damo all over Europe and the UK before coming to WWE. He was incredibly popular with the fans and was actually the inaugural What Culture Pro Wrestling Champion. So when he showed up at the Insane Championship Wrestling event on Sunday, the crowd popped huge.
As you can see, he came ready for battle as the SAnitY member had a rare chance to show up at one of his original favorite companies to work for. We're sure that WWE gave him permission to do this which was pretty awesome of them to grant him the opportunity. After all, SAnitY hasn't done much on SmackDown LIve recently but hopefully, with the addition of Nikki Cross to the group once more that will soon change.
If anything, it might be good for the WWE Universe to get an idea of how popular Killian Dane is where he had some of his early battles.


Sorrento is rich in nature, traditions and social events so it is a tourist destination 365 days a year. The best way to see it is a leisurely walk among shopping streets in the historical centers, through alleys filled with local shops, maybe stopping to taste a glass of limoncello or sitting down on a bench overlooking the Sorrento sea at the Villa Comunale.
Once a year, artists coming from all over the world, meet in Sorrento for the Cinema Festival. Together with other events, it makes Sorrento the most popular destination in the Sorrento Peninsula.
Worth noting, among other events taking place during the Holy Week, the suggestive and secular processions on Good Friday held by the local fraternities is a tremendous cultural and religious experience.
Christmas events and the summer concerts taking place in the main square are also particularly awe inspiring. The food culture is no exception: limoncello, Provolone del Monaco DOP cheese, mozzarella cheese and cold cuts make the area a real paradise for gourmets.
40 years of experience in the art of hospitality. Located a few steps from Sorrento's main square Piazza Tasso.
Hotel Ascot, a Sorrento, is a familiar atmosphere hotel with good cuisine.
In the historical center of Sorrento awaits the hospitality refined but familiar of the Guest House La Piazzetta.
Two bedrooms and one apartment a few steps from the historic center of Sorrento, with garden and pool.
Modern sea view apartment in the heart of Sorrento, with all necessary facilities for a relaxing stay.
Elegant property surrounded by gardens in the Sorrento city. The villa has a spectacular view of the Gulf of Naples.
Open all year round, Palazzo Tasso is located just minutes away from the major Sorrentine historic and cultural sites.

Is That a Shame?
October 30, 2017 melhpine Liberal Religion, Politics, Racism, Religion 5 comments
By Mel Harkrader Pine
"A lot of people seem to think I started this business," (Elvis) Presley told Jet magazine in 1957. "But rock 'n' roll was here a long time before I came along. Nobody can sing that music like colored people. Let's face it: I can't sing it like Fats Domino can. I know that."
The paragraph above is from the October 25 obituary on Fats Domino in The New York Times. How do you react to Elvis's quote?
Most likely, those words would not be uttered in a public medium today, although they might be said privately among friends. First, of course, is the reference to "colored people." That was an OK phrase in 1957 for folks we now call black or African-American, and I doubt we'll fault him for that.
But what about the stereotyping? I'll add here that 20 years ago I took voice lessons from a teacher who told me that only blacks could pull off a good falsetto. Should I have walked out and never returned? I didn't, in part because I knew my teacher as a teddy bear with an enormous heart. But even if he was Oscar the Grouch, was he not entitled to an opinion, especially because, like Elvis, it was a compliment?
We know now that, scientifically speaking, race is a fiction, but culturally racism is very real. Were Elvis and my voice teacher engaging in racism by indulging in racial stereotypes? I think not.
Race is a fiction, but genotypes do develop in parts of the world. We don't know why so many great marathoners come from the Western Rift Valley of Africa. Is it the impoverished culture and the need to work hard (and run to school) at an early age? Have genetic adaptations contributed to the skills involved in existing there? As with so much else, it's probably a combination.
Why do players of color dominate the National Football League and the National Basketball Association? Again, there's probably no single answer.
And that gets us back to music. I'd say that the heart of much distinctly American music arises from the African-American experience. Is there a black sound? Culturally, we know that there is. Maybe we can't explain it, but it exists and it has enriched our lives.
Ain't it a shame that we can't discuss it in public without walking on tiptoe!

Reblogged this on Melting-Pot Dharma and commented:
After a four-day Dzogchen Buddhist retreat, as I was catching up on the news, the quote below leaped out at me. So I wrote this for my new blog and thought I'd share it here as well.
katebraestrup says:
"We don't know why so many great marathoners come from the Western Rift Valley of Africa. Is it the impoverished culture and the need to work hard (and run to school) at an early age?"
I brought this up with a Kenyan woman who works fighting poachers in the Masai Mara (she was visiting Maine's game wardens with a group of international conservation law enforcement people—really fun group!) and she told me that it's actually one village, in the mountains. There's a sign on the road into the village proclaiming it the home of the world's great marathoners. Naturally, we tried to figure out why…? Some combination of nature and nurture—a gene pool with really great runner's genes, plus a tradition of running and then, of course, the development of a self-image that children grow up with—"we're the running people!"
As for athletes and musicians—the writer Jason Riley made a good point on this. He said that the two areas in which African Americans famously, disproportionately excel are precisely and perhaps ironically the ones in which no allowance whatever is made for anybody's actual or perceived "disadvantage" or "lack of privilege."
The music world and the world of professional sports are insanely competitive, and you've either got the chops or you don't. Talent isn't enough—it takes intense discipline and a whole lot of very hard work. The basketball players at Georgetown U back in my day were never seen lounging around the quad, or drinking beer in the college pub. They were practicing, endlessly practicing. If they didn't want to practice, there were a whole lot of other talented guys out there who would happily take their places.
And by the way, neither the men (mostly) who run the music industry nor the owners of sports teams aren't notably less racist or noble than anyone else— they want to make a profit, which means they want, and will pay for, the best players they can get.
The sports-team owners and music-industry moguls are driven by the profit motive, and the athletes and musicians are driven by their competitiveness and their art.
I don't know if it's that clean a division. The athletes and musicians (like other artists) like to/hope to make money, and the moguls probably love sports and music (respectively). What I would point out is that the profit motive can push an otherwise bigoted person to ignore the characteristics of a given worker if that worker provides value.I've got an interesting post in mind about this, by the way!
Good, and I agree. I didn't fully explain what I was getting at, in part because I know music (especially jazz) a lot better than I know sports. And musicians want to play with other musicians they admire, and who fit in their bands, way more than they care about crossing the race line. I love the stories from the era of Louis Armstrong and Benny Goodman about band leaders insisting that their bands be integrated, not because of any racial issue bit because of whom they wanted to make music with.

El XCIV  Campeonato de España de Ciclismo en Ruta se disputó en Segovia el 25 de junio de 1995 sobre 220 kilómetros de recorrido. Participaron 115 corredores y sólo 23 terminaron el recorrido.

Se trataba de un circuito realmente selectivo donde solamente especialistas escaladores optaban a la victoria. El circuito fue diseñado por el recientemente retirado del ciclismo profesional y natural de Segovia Pedro Delgado.

El campeón del año anterior, Abraham Olano que hubiera partido como uno de los grandes favoritos no pudo tomar la salida debido a una caída sufrida pocos días antes en la Volta a Catalunya.

Sin Olano y con el circuito tan selectivo el equipo Banesto, encabezado por Miguel Induráin, se presentaba como claro dominador y candidato al maillot rojigualda.

Ya desde los primeros compases de la carrera el equipo Banesto impuso un fuerte ritmo y a varios corredores en las fugas. Muestra de ello es que solamente 23 ciclistas acabaron el recorrido propuesto. A falta de dos vueltas para el final Jesús Montoya consiguió despegarse del grupo y el equipo Banesto renunció a la persecución de su compañero, lo que dejó en manos del resto de equipos la tarea de caza de Montoya. Esta no se produjo y de la situación se aprovecharon el Chava Jiménez y Vicente Aparicio para dejar al grupo y presentarse en Segovia en solitario para completar el podio.

Fue una gran actuación del equipo Banesto, claro dominador de la carrera, con los tres puestos de honor e Induráin sexto en la prueba.

These distinctive, simple and original beach balls were designed by Zuzana Lednická.
In 2013, Fatra resumed cooperation with designers who had created Fatra's original inflatable toys - animals, vehicles, vessels and beach balls. The collection debuted at Designblok 2013, the design and fashion week in Prague.
The toy range includes the 'BLACK & WHITE' collection of simple, distinctive, black and white and colourful balls. The patterns of the balls take the best elements from the work of Libuše Niklová, responsible for the designs of numerous inflatable toys and beach balls.
The patterns on the balls were designed by Zuzana Lednická.
Zuzana graduated in Toy Design & Production Technology from the College of Applied Arts and in Graphical Design from the Academy of Arts, Architecture & Design in Prague, where she studied under Professor Zděnek Ziegler. She has been with Studio Najbrt since 1995. Zuzana has won numerous design awards, including the bronze medal in the World's Most Beautiful Book of the Year 2012 contest for a book about Libuše Niklová. She also proudly cooperated on books about the photographer Eva Fuková and Zděnek Ziegler, on the book Czech 100 Design Icons, posters for a theatrical Without Oxygen event and Without Touch film event, and on visual stylistic cues for the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
In 2006, she founded the mojemoje brand, which makes limited edition bags, chinaware, snowboards and accessories for children. Zuzana also helped put together the toy exhibition in the Napajedla Museum and designed distinctive patterns for inflatable beach balls by Fatra.

Mike Lindell says being at the State of the Union was "epic" in VB in the Middle interview
Michael Lindell was at the State of the Union address last Tuesday! As Mike told VB in the Middle, "it was an amazing night." He was invited by Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-North Dakota, and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-California.
For Mike, his jet sliding off the runway is a good thing!
Mike was already going to DC, as he is speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast. Amazingly, Mike might not have received the last-minute invitation in time. But, his private jet slid off the runway, so Mike's trip was delayed, And it was during this delay that Mike received the invitation to the State of the Union address. Who knew that having your jet slide off the runway was a good thing?
This was the start of 26 days of speaking engagements
And, the DC trip was the start of spending 26 days speaking in 12 different states at a variety of events, including speaking to 15,000 students at Liberty University. So, although he did have to scramble a bit, he did have the necessary clothing, etc., needed to go to a State of the Union address.
Mike: the State of the Union address was "epic"
Mike called the State of the Union address "epic," "one of the greatest speeches I've ever heard". Mike said that he went to the event with the expectation of "a great divide". But, he said that he saw "total unification," instead. For he saw that 70% of the time, the Democrats were clapping along with the Republicans.
Mike also saw Speaker Pelosi and Vice President Pence talking together, which Mike felt demonstrated an "amazing time of unity." And that is "what the president is good at," he is an "uniter". Plus, Mike says that Trump is "willing to compromise" and that he's a "common sense" president who is "very pragmatic".
As Mike says, "It was a night where politics was taken out of the speech". Michael was praying that President Trump would talk about all the good things he's done and where he's going, with no negatives. And Mike feels that President Trump did a great job.
Although Mike did not get a chance to be with President Trump, Mike was able to be with Trump's family and was actually with Donald Trump, Junior until 2 AM after the State of the Union address.
Mike's continuing rags to riches story
Mike said that he felt "very blessed" to be at this event and that it was "everything he prayed it would be." Mike still finds it "surreal," though, that he would be able to attend a function like this, and that it is even more surreal that "people actually came up and wanted a picture with him."
But, as Mike says, "God's continues to work miracles in my life".

Eastern Michigan: Not surprisingly, the Eagles threw a 2/3 zone defense at the Blue Devils — Murphy spent seven years on the Syracuse staff with zone savant Jim Boeheim. It wasn't much of an impediment to the nation's top-ranked team, though that seems insignificant in the long run because nobody in the Mid-American Conference will match Duke's talent level.
Krzyzewski says 3-point-shooting threat Cameron Reddish was dealing with soreness in his groin but "nothing serious" and would have played more had the game been closer. Reddish finished with three points on 1-of-5 shooting in less than 12 minutes.
There were lots of choices, but the best of the bunch came midway through the first half when Reddish lobbed an alley-oop pass from just across midcourt that seemed headed for the seats. Williamson skied so high for it that his armpits and eyes were both at rim-level. That highlight-reel jam made it 28-7, putting Duke up by 20 for good.
By the time Duke led by 20, Williamson had more dunks (four) than Eastern Michigan had field goals (three). … The Eagles led for 18 early seconds — when it was 2-0 — and that brought the total amount of time the Blue Devils have trailed this season to 30 total seconds.


Having tried many different cereal varieties and flavors in stores, I found the European's traditional Muesli to be the healthiest, and our American Granola to be the best tasting. But the European Muesli needs a day ahead preparation time ... and that didn't fit my American lifestyle of eating on-the-go. Plus it didn't have the same full flavor as granola. I wanted something healthy, but was not satisfied with the prep time involved or the lack of robust flavor. Plus, as I am an active guy and very much into fitness, I wanted something more nutritious than granola to fuel my workouts without all the sugar and/or fat. And like most American's I wanted it quick. Quick, healthy and with lots of long lasting energy.
So I decided to do what many innovative entrepreneurs would do, set out to create a new product to solve people's needs. I went on a mission to create the very best breakfast cereal I could, one that was great tasting, healthy, energy packed and quick to serve. I started experimenting with my own batches of the best quality organic cereal grains, nuts, seeds and dried fruits. After testing out new recipes every week for over a year, I found just the right combination of ingredients that were everything I needed health-wise and tasted great. I created the formulas to give every cereal blend the optimal combination of flavor and nutrition, with that, Muesli Munch® was born!
After testing out new recipes every week for over a year, I made the decision I was ready to launch Sean's Muesli Munch®. The recipes I developed were somewhat of a European muesli mixed with an American granola hybrid. Sean's Muesli Munch® is crispy and ready to eat like granola, yet healthy and light as Muesli. As I was passionate about organic foods having been brought up by parents that were dedicated to eating well, I decided to make sure Sean's Muesli Munch® was certified organic and non-GMO.
We started out with four unique blends and you loved them! You'll never get bored with the many great blends -- Cranberry Coconut, Pumpkin Pecan and coming soon Walnut Currant Muesli and Gluten Freedom Muesli. But we never stop trying to make our muesli even better, better ingredients, better blends, and better taste. So this fall of 2018 I am introducing a new and improved Sean's Muesli Munch with three great blends: Cranberry Coconut Muesli, Cinnamon Walnut Muesli and Gluten Freedom Muesli. Try each of our unique and improved blends and have a great start to an amazing day or an excellent snack along the way.
And, please, send us feed back about our new improved Muesli Munch blends, as well as any new special blends you'd like to see down the road.

Everything You Need to Know about Attending an Army West Point Football Game
I went to a big football school, so I thought I knew a thing or two about surviving a college football game day. I could not have been more wrong, however, when it comes to Army football games. Honestly if I hadn't already worked at West Point by the time I attended my first Army West Point home game, I would have been completely lost because everything is SO different. To make matters worse, cadets are usually busy before the games so anyone you would have to show you around is MIA. Luckily for you, you've got me.
We are rounding out my third football season at West Point so I know a thing or two about getting around an Army football game. I recently got A TON of questions about the most recent home football game from other girlfriends so I figured I would use my platform to actually spread what I know and help some people out down the road! Let's get right into everything you need to know about attending an Army West Point football game!
What do I need to get on post?
Anytime you're talking about getting on a military installation, there are a few things to keep in mind. The first is that you should always plan on getting to your destination early to avoid any type of traffic. The second is that you're probably going to have to show some form of ID to get on post. While some exceptions to this rule may be made, like on game day for instance, you should always get in the habit of having a valid form of identification or visitors pass on you at all times. Also, just because they aren't checking IDs, doesn't mean your vehicle won't get searched at random on game days.
General parking is typical available at Buffalo Soldier Field. You can gain a parking pass as an option when you purchase tickets or you can pay in cash once you get to West Point. Occasionally, either because of weather or the number of people expected to attend that Army game, general public may also be available at Target Hill Field. Shuttle busses are available to and from the general public lots to Michie Stadium.
What should I wear to an Army football game?
Army football games aren't really like football in the south or at some big football schools. Since the students all have to wear uniforms, there isn't much to game day fashion at West Point. Most people who attend Army games wear your standard jeans and a t-shirt or sweatshirt. For those of you who take football game fashion a little more seriously, West Point is full of gift shops that sell gameday perfect pieces such as this Hillflint sweater I picked up at the DUSA gift shop, located in the West Point museum. Make sure to check the weather (and I mean really, really well) before planning your Army football game outfit, however. The weather in New York can be pretty unpredictable. For example, 60 degrees and cloudy in the AM and 80 degrees and perfectly sunny postgame.
What happens before the game starts?
Army football game days are filled with much more than football. Before each game, a parade takes place on The Plain located in the heart of West Point where you'll not only be able to see Cadets marching but also features a parachute demonstration over the most iconic of West Point locations (weather permitting). If you've never seen a Cadet Review before, I highly suggest stopping by. After the parade, Black Knights Alley opens where there are all sorts of free goodies, musical performances, activities for the kids, and my favorite: the beer tent. Heads up though, the beer tent only accepts cash so make sure you come prepared.
Can I sit with my cadet?
The number one question I get asked about West Point football games is are cadets allowed to sit with civilians and vice versa. The real answer is no but we all know how scrappy West Point girlfriends are when it comes to getting time with their cadets. The 50 yard line where the Cadet section and the civilian sections meet is the typical hang out spot for cadets who have guests visiting. It's also a pretty prime spot to watch the game and the cadets are always entertaining.
Have you been to an Army football game before? What tips do you have for someone who is attending their first game? Let me know below what you think in the comments!

Doing it that way doesn't seem to work; my show page just shows all that text (with the html tag and everything).

Cork Harbour Horizons where taken from the same spot, looking out towards the mouth of Cork Harbour, at the same time each day over a period of six months in 2014. They are part of the research material for the Horizons project.
Immersion Series 2009-12 looks at our relationship with landscape. Inspired by German romantic painting, the photographs show that nature has become a landscape we both live in and are separate from, we are always tourists in our own and other lands. We engage with landscape through the use of cars, paths, paved viewing and visitor areas, this expresses a particular attitude towards our environment.
Teufelsberg is a man-made hill in Berlin, Germany, in the Grunewald locality of former West Berlin. It rises about eighty meters above the surrounding Teltow plateau, in the north of Berlin's Grunewald Forest. The hill is made of rubble, and covers an under-construction Nazi military-technical college (Wehrtechnische Fakultät). During the Cold War, there was a U.S. listening station on the hill, Field Station Berlin.
Hinterland was inspired by18th & 19th century romantic painting and the controls exerted on society by military forces in Ireland at that time, the work uses the extremes of light and dark to expose a suppressed hysteria. The claustrophobic interior spaces of the forts, which almost shut out the light, are expressive of control. The images are suffocating and relentlessly dark, but not hopeless, there is a way out. Photographs from Charles Fort & Fort Davies in Cork Harbour were exhibited at Tom Barry's Bar 'Light Box' series of exhibitions Cork 2009 in association with the Cork Artists Collective.
Epicentre Project was a site-specific video and photography project exhibited as part of 'Fruitcakes and Furry Collars' exhibition at Bridge House, Skibbereen, West Cork 2009. It consisted of a montaged video and photographs with a moving image of a tornado, creating the illusion of a ghost like presence in the spaces photographed and videoed. (also see videos)
We Must Follow the Circle was a series of photographs selected for the exhibition 'We Must Follow the Circle' at the Triskel Arts Centre 2007. The photographs were taken with a video camera in a stream below Kenilworth Castle, UK in July 2002 and features my son Daniel Murray, my cousins and local children. They are engaged in building a dame.
The exhibition was cuated by Kitty Anderson and Gavin Delahunty, and was an 'attempt to represent and interpret the diverse activity at Backwater Artists Group: a meeting place and a place to exchange ideas. Central to the exhibition was its structural and lighting design in partnership with artist/architect Essica Kimberly'.

Using a video camera the work is spontaneous in nature, nothing is staged, the children are being themselves and often avoiding the process of being photographed. They inhabit a twilight zone of wooded landscapes, caught between stillness and movement, suggesting a sense of fragility and transience that childhood engenders. The photographs are mainly of my son Daniel Murray, but also include Theo and Noah Donnelly. Exhibited at the Alliance Française de Cork 2007.
Four Caravans found on the dunes in Connemara, Co. Galway in 2004, one completely smashed. Exhibited as part of ArtTrail 2004 and 'When Flanders Failed' at The RHA Royal Hibernian Academy Gallery, Dublin 2011.
Skate-park was a documentation project. I was interested in exploring the different types public cultural spaces in Cork City, in an attempt to question why certain priorities are given to certain types of cultural spaces. This skate-park, the only one in Cork City, was dismantled in 2003 because it could not be insured. This was a digital video and photography project. With special thanks to Lulu Hecket.
The Iraq Room was made possible through a residency at Kunstlerhaus Schloss Wiepersdorf, Germany in 2003. It was inspired by the idea of the 'Museum' as a symbolic tool for western colonial ambitions. The attendant paces the floor of the Gallery deep in thought repeating his steps again and again, creating a kind of spontaneous silent theater with his chair and a potted palm, here the stage is 'The Iraq Room' at The Pergamon Museum in Berlin at the height of the war in Iraq April 2003. Exhibited as part of the 'Crawford Open 4' at The Crawford Art Gallery, Cork 2003.
Hunting Boxes photographs were taken on a video camera, in the woods near Wiepersdorf, Germany in 2003. Here I have documented a series of Hunting Boxes or 'Hochsitze' (Raised Hides) found in the woods near the former Stolzenhain Russian Nuclear Base. In this work I am interested in exploring our relationship with nature and the landscape. This work explores the myth of representation and the idea of a romantic relationship with landscape. For me the Hunting Boxes express our obsession with dominating nature, separating and positioning us in a paradoxical situation.
This work was made possible through a residency at Kunstlerhaus Schloss Wiepersdorf through the Stiftung Kulturfonds 2003 and an Arts Council of Ireland residency award 2002.

Reinsdorf Airport photographs were taken on a video camera, at Reinsdorf Airport, near Wiepersdorf, Germany in 2003.
In this work I am interested in our relationship with nature and landscape, here as the imagined aerial view, as represented by the airport. This work explores the myth of representation through the idea of a romantic relationship with landscape.
Stolzenhain Base photographs were taken using a video camera, at the former Stolzenhain Russian Nuclear Base, near Wiepersdorf, Germany in 2003. The base was abandoned in 1990 and in 2003 was used to store fertilizer. The gymnasium is the only building left standing today.
In this work I am interested in how our relationship with nature and landscape is a false construct of identification with historical cultural traditions, particularly landscape painting. This work explores the myth of representation and the idea of a failed romantic relationship with landscape.
Stolzenhain Windows photographs were taken using a video camera, at the former Stolzenhain Russian Nuclear Base, near Wiepersdorf, Germany in 2003. The base was abandoned in 1990 and in 2003 was used to store fertilizer. These buildings have since been demolished.
In this work I am interested in how our relationship with nature and landscape is a construct of identification with historical cultural traditions, particularly landscape painting. This work explores the myths of representation and the idea of a romantic relationship with landscape in the face of a blatant militaristic reality.
This work was inspired by the woods and landscape around Wiepersdorf, Germany and was made possible through a residency at Kunstlerhaus Schloss Wiepersdorf through the Stiftung Kulturfonds 2003 and an Arts Council of Ireland residency award 2002.


Open Learning has given rise to a new form of education, where possibilities are limitless.
With the power to eliminate enclosed walls and to create an open space, students are now given the opportunity to take control of their learning, and to explore the many domains of their education as they interactively look forward to a brighter future.
This innovative method allows for a flexible learning environment, in which students can either engage and openly participate in collaboration, or they can find space for quiet reflection. This new form of learning and teaching guarantees each student an essential balance, employing diversity and enthusiasm.
A colourful curriculum is made possible through an open learning space. In this flexible environment, students are exposed to a wide array of subjects in a productive manner that allows them to experiment and to interdependently or independently engage and explore. With so much opportunity at present, students are empowered and encouraged to take the initiative to actively develop at a pace that suits them.
Successfully creating an open learning environment includes a positive array of flexible furniture. Varied furniture in an open space transforms learning from being traditionally structured to becoming modernly exciting. An assortment of multi-purposeful furniture serves to achieve both the completion of a curriculum and the conditioning of an environment that encourages student's capabilities.
To see the potency of this enlightenment, take a look at our video of exemplar school, Bethany Catholic Primary, in admiration of their spectacular open learning system.

Q: Can Matlab do a 3D plot with a 4th variable as color map? I'm exploring contour3 and mesh, but don't see any path to take 3 variable data (x, y, z) and another variable (e.g. a = fn(x, y, z)) that can be used to create a heat map or colored contour plot in that 3D space.
Please point me in the right direction.


I've been everywhere, man! Well, maybe not everywhere, but I've sure been to a lot of places. Event though I've been to 48 US States, and 29 Countries around the world, I've still only covered 9% of the Earth's land mass! So, there are still a lot of places to see. Many of you have asked me to start a blog with updates of roadtrips, and suggestions for vacations, getaways, and trips. So, here it is. Hope you enjoy it, find it useful, or perhaps just entertaining.
We celebrated New Year's Eve at our Vermont cabin, Hazenwood. It was a quiet but fun way to ring in the new year. During our 4 hour ride home today, Christie entertained us by reading from the year-end edition of "People" magazine. It was chock full of lists. Top 10 Googled people in 2009, the top 10 movies, Top 10 songs, etc.
As I was listening to her, I started thinking of the many emails I receive from Ultimate Family Road Trip readers, asking for my "top picks". By far, the most common request I receive is for my list of top road trips itieneraries. But on occasion, I will receive an email asking me for some of my more interesting lists. I've received requests for my list of the top "man made U.S. wonders", the top "off the beaten path oddities", my top "places to avoid" and my top "one-of-a-kind roadfood joints".
So, in the spirit of the season, which seems to be a pile of lists for every category imaginable, here are two of my lists based on some of your requests.
First, my Top "Off The Beaten Path" Roadtrip Attractions - Each of the sites below, are places that I have personally visited, and they are unique, fun, and out-of-the-way. I guarantee that your children (and you) will remember visiting these attractions for many more years than you will remember most museums, parks, or beaches you will ever visit.
I am oftenb asked about my most favorite unique places to eat - one-of-a-kind "Roadfood joints". These are local places, not chains. What qualifies any of these restaurants for my "best of" list is that a) They are unique to a specific part of the country, b) they are typically known for a particular menu unique menu item, and c) They have the "total package" - a unique building, good food, friendly people, and great value. These days, between the Travel Channel and the Food Network, many of these well kept secrets have become toursit attractions in thier own right. But way before any of these television networks began making these places famous, my family and I were including them in our Road Trip itineraries. Now, it is virtually impossible for me to put these in any sort of rank order - so here is my list, in totally random order - Brace yourself, there's a lot of them, and these are only the top ones that come to mind - there's many more where these came from!
