Hang on to your hats, folks! Something big is about to happen: it's a recipe post.
I realize they've been a bit thin on the ground lately. There's been a lot going down over at Marmalade HQ, and, as it happens, a lot coming up.
My white blood cell count was up to 3 times what it should be, and – without putting too fine a point on it – there was an awful lot of stuff coming up out of my mouth that should have exited my body from another orifice. Yes. I was taken out by the "Thing". Even my therapist's office did not escape the ravages of the "Thing". Thanks goodness for garbage cans lined with plastic bags, located close at hand. Oh, and tissues. Thank goodness for tissues. Boxes of tissues. So that was 3 days and 2 nights of my life last weekend; and brought the number of ER visits in the last 6 weeks to 2. I like to think I am done for the year now, thank you very much.
Curiously, after a rather disoriented ramble around Trader Joe's on my way home from hospital, I had a sudden burst of energy and decided that I needed to make meatloaf. Bear in mind that I have never made a meatloaf in my life. I am trying to remember if I have ever even eaten meatloaf in my life. I think maybe once. Possibly twice, but I really don't think so. We Brits, we're just not big on meatloaf like Americans. Americans love meatloaf. Why I had the urge to make meatloaf at all is a little perplexing to me. Why I got that urge after being supine in a hospital bed, hooked up to an IV merrily shunting sugar-water around my veins for 3 days is a deeper mystery altogether; and not one I think we should pursue at this point.
Bea did indeed wish to be the first person to chow down on my inaugural meatloaf. She's a brave soul. I didn't even know if it would work, let alone taste good. When Bea rolled up and plonked herself at the kitchen table, I was in the last throes of meatloaf creation. "Oh!", she exclaimed. "That's a very fancy mixer-upper thingy!", pointing to my food processor. Indeed. It made very short work of chopping the veggies in about 12 seconds flat.
This is super-fast and simple to throw together. Then it's an hour in the oven and marvellous meatloaf *SANEity will be yours. There's A POUND AND A HALF of veggies in this sucker, and you wouldn't even guess. Trick your children! Trick your errant anti-diet husband! They'll never know.
I was really worried about my first meatloaf falling apart when I tried to get it out of the tin, or even worse – watching it crumble when I sliced it. It was time mis-spent worrying. This meatloaf holds together beautifully, and slices like a dream – especially when it's cold. I would recommend using a serrated knife to cut it, and using a sawing action. It will slice better that way. Don't use a straight-edge knife that you push through the loaf.
This is fantastic comfort food served hot. It's fantastic lunch food served cold. I even ate it for breakfast one day; but that's because I just couldn't wait for it to be lunchtime – it was cooing at me from the 'fridge and I was powerless to resist its charms. You can freeze this whole, you can freeze this in slices. You can freeze each slice individually and then just grab a slice (or two) as you head out the door in the morning. Eat it alongside salad. Eat it with steamed veggies. Eat it with a huge dollop of mashed cauliflower. Eat a slice as a snack when you get the munchies – it's pretty much a balanced meal all on its own. It would even make fantastic party food sliced into small cubes or fingers and speared with a toothpick. And look at that puppy – fancy dinner party offereing if I ever I saw one.
It's true. I have succumbed. I've been converted to the throngs of meatloaf lovers across America. Hurrah!
PS. Bea loved it. She also said it needed more salt, so I adjusted the recipe. It's why we love taste-testers around here.
Finely chop the celery and leeks, or pulse in a food processor.
Heat the coconut oil in a pan and sauté the vegetables – stirring regularly – over medium heat until the water has all been cooked out. About 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, put the cranberries, sage, salt, pepper, xanthan gum, and almond meal, and mix well until completely combined.
Once the vegetables are ready, turn into the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients.
Add the egg white and stir well.
Add the ground turkey and mix well. Hands are the best tool here, although the mixture is a little sticky.
Turn the meat mixture into a loaf pan that you had sprayed with coconut oil, and press into all corners and sides.
Bake the meatloaf in the center of the oven at 350 F for an hour.
Slide a knife around the edges of the meatloaf to make sure the sides are free.
Take a cooling rack and place on top of the meatloaf in the pan.
Carefully turn the cooling rack and pan over and the meatloaf will slide out. It may need a little shake.
OPTIONAL: spread whole berry cranberry sauce on the top surface of the loaf before serving.
Sylvia - OOOH, Carrie, this sounds so good! Looking forward to trying this one. Have you tried it with minced beef?
Matilda - Turkey mince was discounted at the supermarket (as it was close to it's use by date), so that gave me an excuse to make this recipe.
I halved the recipe as well it's just feeding me and 2 kids, and they only eat half an adult portion anyway.
Lets just say, that my son, who is a sloth when it comes to eating gobbled this up. He totally loved it, so much so that he ate all his veggies and didn't complain once about dinner.
My daughter didn't really care for the cranberries, but I made her eat it.

U-573  – niemiecki okręt podwodny (U-Boot) typu VIIC z okresu II wojny światowej, w 1942 przejęty przez marynarkę hiszpańską (Armada Española), w skład której wchodził do 1970.

Historia
Zamówienie na budowę okrętu zostało złożone w stoczni Blohm & Voss w Hamburgu. Rozpoczęcie budowy okrętu miało miejsce 8 czerwca 1940 roku. Wodowanie nastąpiło 17 kwietnia 1941, wejście do służby 5 czerwca 1941 roku.

Podczas służby w Kriegsmarine pod dowództwem  Kptlt. Heinricha Heinsohna okręt odbył 5 patroli bojowych, podczas których zatopił jeden statek przeciwnika (21 grudnia 1941 roku u wybrzeży Maroka – norweski frachtowiec "Hellen" o pojemności 5.289 BRT).

29 kwietnia 1942 roku, na północny zachód od Algieru, U-573 został zaatakowany bombami głębinowymi przez samolot Lockheed Hudson z 233 Dywizjonu RAF i poważne uszkodzony. Kapitan decydował o udaniu się do neutralnej Hiszpanii. 2 maja okręt wpłynął do portu w Kartagenie. Władze hiszpańskie pozwoliły na 3-miesięczny pobyt celem dokonania remontu, łamiąc tym samym prawo międzynarodowe, dopuszczające tylko 24 godzinny postój jednostki strony wojującej w neutralnym porcie, co wzbudziło silne protesty ze strony brytyjskiej ambasady w Madrycie. Ponieważ okazało się, że naprawa jest nieopłacalna czy wręcz niemożliwa, Kriegsmarine zdecydowała się sprzedać okręt Hiszpanom za kwotę 1,5 miliona reichsmarek. 2 sierpnia 1942 roku U-573 został wcielony do hiszpańskiej marynarki pod oznaczenie G-7. Kapitan Heinsohn powrócił do Niemiec w marcu 1943 roku, by zginąć dwa miesiące później jako dowódca U-438.

Remont G-7 został ostatecznie zakończony w 1947 roku, w czerwcu 1961 zmieniono oznaczenie na S-01, 2 maja 1970 roku skreślono go z listy floty. Mimo wysiłków zmierzających do przekształcenia go w okręt muzeum, został złomowany.

Weird Al Yankovic, real name Alfred Matthew Yankovic, has enjoyed an iconic, decades-long career that outlived many of the music trends that he so memorably made fun of. The man's racked up four Grammy Awards, his studio albums have gone Gold and Platinum countless times over, and he even enjoyed a No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 with his comeback record Mandatory Fun. Add to that his extensive resume of television, cartoon, and movie appearances to boot.
Yes, my friends, behind that goofy demeanor and buried under that crop of curly hair is a brain (and a body) that flat out gets stuff done. It's certainly not an accident, either. No, my friends, the Downey, California native started noodling on his accordion at the tender age of seven-years-old and never looked back.
Today, we pay tribute to the man who's built a career on poking fun at an industry that far-too-often takes itself far-too-seriously. What are you waiting for? Let's dive in to the funniest Weird Al songs ever!
Weird Al's classic parody "Eat It" took on the Michael Jackson's smash hit "Beat It" and was featured on the album Weird Al Yankovic in 3-D in 1984. The King of Pop's version is a classic pump-up tune with lyrics that are crafted to inspire confidence. Weird Al's version, not so much. Instead of telling haters where to go, Weird Al's lyrics jokingly encourage his fans to clean their dinners plates.
With a music video that mirrors MJ's and lyrics that aggressively pay tribute to tuna casserole, it's no surprise that the single went Gold in 1989.
Chamillionaire's smash-hit detailed his frustrating experiences with local police officers who were always hoping to catch him committing a crime behind the wheel. It's a message that get's more relevant by the day. Weird Al's take was, it's safe to say, much, much lighter.
Yanokovic raps about Dungeons and Dragons, action figures, Earl Grey tea, and Klingons. The music video is jam-packed with viral video references and geek-inspired gags and, like Chamillionaire, preaches a message of acceptance. Just, in a much different way.
The 2014 release of the parody tune "Word Crimes," marked the triumphant return of one of the world's greatest satirists. Using Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" as his canvas, Weird Al joins the Grammar Police Force and gives the collective interwebs a lecture on proper punctuation.
Weird Al Yankovic is the hero that we deserve.
"Word Crimes" attempts to teach the world about grammar, misspelling, incorrect word usage, and more. I might be a little biased, but I think that "Word Crimes" is the single greatest song that has ever been recorded.


Over the course of a three-day retreat, she taught a small group of reluctant employees about the benefits of recognizing the good things in their lives and saying thank you. And something shifted. After one person wrote a genuine note of thanks on an "appreciation wall," soon everyone was participating.
But what really surprised Pollack was the connection and authenticity that appreciation seemed to inspire. At the end of the retreat, some of the more closed-off employees opened up about the feelings and past experiences that had created their hard shells.

Appreciation is a cornerstone of the culture at Southwest Airlines, named by Forbes as America's #13 Best Employer of 2018. One way the company appreciates employees is by paying attention to special events in their personal lives—from kids' graduations to marriages to family illnesses—and recognizing those with small gestures like flowers and cards. "We're all encountering different obstacles in our life, we're all celebrating different things in our life," says Cheryl Hughey, managing director of culture at Southwest.
Gratitude isn't the only emotional skill that could be valuable to the modern business. We might also hope to build emotionally intelligent and empathic workplaces, where employees practice compassion and forgiveness.
But gratitude could be a pathway to these (arguably more difficult) goals, according to Peter Bonanno, director of program development at the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute (SIYLI), a nonprofit that offers training in mindfulness and emotional intelligence to individuals and teams. Bonanno has found that, to most people, practicing gratitude is appealing, practical, feel-good, and fun. One study, for example, found that gratitude journaling for as little as 15 minutes was enough to boost positive emotions.
Write a letter expressing thanks, and deliver it in person.
According to author and consultant Mike Robbins, some gratitude initiatives fail to do anything new: They simply repurpose recognition programs, which have existed for a long time. Recognition rewards performance and achievement—what you accomplish as a worker—whereas appreciation acknowledges your inherent worth as a person, he says. It's the difference between celebrating record-breaking sales vs. applauding a caring and helpful spirit.
In one of his favorite exercises, employees take turns sitting in the "appreciation hot seat," and others go around a circle expressing appreciation for them. People start off hesitant, feeling awkward and a bit vulnerable, he says, but the experience often ends in laughter and hugs—not because they're praising successful business deals or admirable reports, but because they're getting at something deeper.
Another common pitfall when companies introduce gratitude is assuming that everyone wants to be appreciated in the same way. Pollack likens appreciation to love languages: Each individual's language of appreciation is different, and we risk miscommunication if we assume everyone likes to receive a card, a coffee, or public praise. She has compiled dozens of different gratitude practices to try at work, from surprise care packages to appreciation badges to a celebration calendar.
Similarly, Pollack says, we all want to be appreciated for different things because we're all different. Workplaces can bring together diverse people with different types of communication styles, backgrounds, and expertise, and it's our job to recognize our colleagues' strengths even if those strengths are different from our own. I feel valued for my passion for self-improvement and personal growth, for example, even though my fellow journalists have other specialties.
In a culture that prizes busyness and hard-driving achievement, people can feel guilty and self-indulgent taking the time to meditate at work or keep a gratitude journal. "We are taught that the busier we are, the more successful we'll be," says Emmy Negrin, former manager of the Yahoo Employee Foundation and Yahoo for Good. To send a different signal, she invited executives to attend a new mindfulness program at Yahoo in order to show their buy-in for the initiative.
At Southwest, the company used to send out pins to employees who had served the airline for a milestone number of years (like 5 or 10). To better honor their culture of appreciation, though, they now send the pins to leaders and invite them to recognize and celebrate the employee in a special way, transforming gratitude from a faceless gift into a relationship-building experience. In both cases, getting leaders to participate communicates that gratitude and well-being are important.
For Fehr at the University of Washington, one of the keys to a successful program is consistency. For example, adding a short gratitude practice to staff meetings or infusing internal communications with gratitude keep it top-of-mind. Employee awards once a year won't cut it, he says.


Cooler temperatures equals less moisture for your skin.
Wash in Lukewarm Water instead of hot water. It avoids stripping oils from your skin.
Moisturize Immediately after you shower. It helps seal that moisture into your skin.
Consider using unscented products and go for an oil-based creams rather than a water-based cream.
Plus,if you're cranking up the heater- consider using a humidifier.
Finally, HYDRATE! Drinks lot's of water. And eat foods high in water - like cucumbers, watermelon, and oranges (even the tiny ones).

Any free-flowing, dry powder is what tends to make anything powder coated. The variation in between that and regular liquid paint is the fact that it does not demand a solvent to help preserve the binder and filler parts in the suspended state. The covering is added electrostatically, Powder coating cured beneath heat, which makes a protective layer. The powder is usually produced working with thermoplastic or possibly a type of thermoset plastic and creates a lasting finish, which is stronger when compared with regular paint. Metals which include whiteware, aluminum extrusion and also bike components are what powder coating is employed for. This coating is usually a widespread kind of material valuable for toilet partitioning.
Nicely, listed below are some positive aspects to generating use of powder coating as opposed to other forms of coatings. Thicker coatings may be made without having it possessing runny or saggy qualities. They emit minimal volatile organic and organic compounds. Overspray may perhaps be reused, creating it doable to use every single bit in the coating. Manufacturing powder coating features a smaller quantity of hazardous waste. The items and expenses are often reduce than it will likely be for some other liquid coatings. In lots of situations, there is no visual variation among surfaces which had been coated vertically or horizontally. You will find a big quantity of effects which is usually carried out that you are going to otherwise be unable to complete with alternate covering sorts.
There are plenty of disadvantages to applying powdered coating as an alternative to other types of coatings. Although the coating method is straightforward relating to a thick coating, thin coats tend to be hard. If the coating is going to be thinner, it options a a lot more peeled texture as a consequence of particle dimensions and glass transition temperatures. When this must be accomplished, the obtain cost will be greater than other forms of painting. Whilst it may possess the primary benefit of reusing overspray, if various colors are employed within a booth it is going to limit every thing you'll be able to recycle.
One of the most frequent properties relating to powder coating are alloys sized among 30 to 50 micrometers at the same time as a glass transition temperature near 392 degrees Fahrenheit. The texture together with the surface is dependent upon the merchandise being created. A great deal on the time it will likely be preferred to own a bit of a peeled appearance which will hide practically any defects inside the metal, which causes fingerprints less apt to be shown. At occasions, coatings are expected that happen to be decrease than 30 micrometers or even a transition temperature decrease than 104 degrees, for that reason it truly is thinner. A normal procedure utilized in reaching this thinner film is called the Powder Slurry method, which disperses powders concerning 1-5 micrometers straight into water enabling a clean, thin covering.
There are actually typically two primary types of powder coatings, thermosets and thermoplastics. With each other with thermosetting, the powder is baked and acts with some other chemical groups inside the powder to become able to polymerize, Powder coat which usually heightens the efficiency attributes. Thermoplastic is distinct by not experiencing any other reactions through baking and just flows out for the coating to be finalized. The essential polymers employed are polyester, polyester-epoxy, polyurethane, acrylics, and also straight epoxy.


We as a people will only be equal to the demands of the day if we stand up for the marginalize, the powerless, and those without a voice.
Unless they are in the womb then we can marginalize and in fact kill those without a voice. In fact prevent them from ever having a voice. Hard to think of anybody more powerless than those human person in the womb.
Dawn Eden reports about something else missing besides the mention of Jesus.
No, Jesus' very name, in the form of the ancient monogram IHS, which had been in gold lettering on the wooden archway above Gaston Hall's dais, was painted over prior to Obama's arrival. Apparently, the Name that is above every other name is not permitted to be above Obama.
The photo above shows the archway "before." You can see the "after" clearly in C-SPAN's video, as Georgetown President John DeGioia emerges to give his fawning introduction.
Update: There is some question as to whether IHS was painted over or just covered over as is done at other events.
There has not been as big of reaction to the Presidents' visit at Georgetown as there was to the Notre Dame invite. Though maybe it is partially because many Catholics have already given up on Georgetown. Or at least hold zero surprise at the invite, especially since candidate Obama was previously invited. Georgetown holds onto some vestiges of the Cathoilc faith in a tribal, but mostly not meaningful way as an institution.
Since President Obama can give speeches on the economy maybe I can get a speaking gig for discussing brain surgery, rocket science, or anything else I know next-to-nothing about.
Oh come on… I'm sure brain surgery isn't that difficult.
Perhaps they should strive to only invite those who don't require their seal to hide in shame.
Congratulations for your line: John DeGioia being totally irony impaired in his introduction included this:: "We as a people will only be equal to the demands of the day if we stand up for the marginalize, the powerless, and those without a voice".
My anecdote: G'town early 90s: a brave group of cleric & lay Catholics, AND DECENT MUSLIMS, plus OTHER DENOMINATIONS protested the funding (symbolic, and THAT is what matters), for the Pro-Choice & Gay Clubs. The university, Parrish, and local bishop washed their hands, in their best Pilates style, calling this outrage an "honest attempt to be tolerant with the academic freedom" of others.
The decency point, giving –however small amount of $ from Catholic donations- to groups defiantly mocking Church teaching, was totally impaired as in your jest-words.
Their covert point was satanic pride like Notre Dame, HONORING A RABID FUNDER OF BABY SLAUGHTERING, all disguised as openness!
The boycott-lame excuse for not exercising… THE FORMAL AUTHORITY OF THE BISHOP to whatever institutions dare to bear the NAME CATHOLIC in the Diocese, was (and is) not good enough. We live in a world where nobody forces you to go Catholic, and have 30,000 Christian sects to choose.
The story went like this: our brave multi-denominational-decent outraged group, went to Rome with a direct request: take away the NAME CATHOLIC from Georgetown, and just open their doors to become a secular institution.
The Superior General could not fool anybody with "the board is not ours, they are independent". Half the board was jesuit, and no one in the other half would dare to contradict them. But the funny jest was: GO AHEAD, VOTE NO, AND BECOME SECULAR, you are more than welcome!!!
Forgot to add: De Goia & Jesuits used their old dexterity in saving face, backing down, and conforming (reluctantly) with the Vatican.
Obama's visit to Georgetown was kept quiet and it was not announced until the last moment. A lot of pro life people in the area were scrambling to make their presence felt near campus.
Maybe the pro lifers stayed home this time since, according to the Department of Homeland Security, we are now officially classified as terrorists and threats to national security.
I agree with Dawn that using the parable about the house built on the sand and the house built on a rock without any mention of the "rock" Christ was talking about is an insult. Either the president didn't notice the difference, in which case he is not as smart as people think, or he knows and thinks it is appropriate to strip Jesus and the Church out of a Christian parable in a Christian institution, in which case he has a lot of hubris. I think it's the latter.
But I don't see anything wrong with covering up the IHS. It was a political speech and should not be construed as a Catholic one. And if he HAD spoken underneath "IHS" then people would have been upset about it contributing to the whole "messiah" mystique that is partly their creation.
Although I didn't realize IHS was a Jesuit symbol – I thought it stood for "In Hoc Signo" and is used in a variety of Catholic contexts (assuming for the sake of argument "Jesuit" is a Catholic context).
IHS: this is a monogram for the Most Holy Name of Jesus. I'm pretty sure that it's the first three letters of His name, in Greek (the "H" being an eta).
Hmm. An alternate interpretation, Guest.
Would you believe the Catholic Encyclopedia?
The IHS is the transliteration of the first three letters of the name of Jesus in Greek. Probably whatever Latin phrase it fits came about later.
All this makes me wonder,though, that when O. goes to Notre Dame, will the university cover up the statue of the Blessed Mother?
There is a news report out today that the Name was covered at the request of the White House.
@Anthony You're right. And Jeff, we've got a national meeting coming up next month – I might be able to convince the Scientific Program Committee to get you a spot on the dais for the Tuesday AM plenary session.
It's outrageous really. Funny thing–Laura Bush didn't require the Logo to be covered when she spoke. Check my blog for picture.
Just another example of the increasingly secular and anti-religious White House.
If Obama had been speaking at a Muslim institution, somehow I suspect they would not have covered up their religious symbols….
So why are the Jesuits so wimpy? What would St Ignatius have said!
Talk about brain surgery? NO PROBLEM!
Just make sure to practice the really big words before they pop up on the teleprompter.


What? Well, ah, the sun is uprising in the east, but how is the the western horizon looking like, before the sun is coming up on the eastern horizon?
It looks exactly like this! You can see this pastel color gradient, which hides again as soon as the sun gets visible. Clearly the sunrise into the eastern direction is more intensive, but to see how it looks at the oposite direction is interesting too, isn't it? Especially with this awesome view to the mountains of the Gastlosen.


There has been a lot of outrage over the case of an American dentist who shot a lion in Zimbabwe. And I have to say I agree, in principle. I think hunting animals for sport is a particularly vile thing to do, given the power imbalance in the situation - if the lion could shoot back, or the fox set a pack of half-starved dogs on the red-coated 'unspeakable', I doubt the homo sapiens involved would be as enthusiastic about the pastime. That said, though, there are people over here at the moment openly advocating that the migrants trying to get into the UK via the Channel Tunnel be shot on sight. The unfortunate lion had been anthropomorphised by being given a name. The people looking for a better life for themselves and their families are being dehumanised to the point of being seen as vermin to be wiped out. Skewed priorities, maybe?
Yup. And let's talk about abortion, the death penalty, and the fact that so many people in Africa are starving, unemployed, dying of preventible diseases, and we must wonder "FIRST WORLD PROBLEM?". Yeah.
The fucker should be shot. With an arrow. And made to wander around for days until someone shoots him with a SHOTGUN!
There's a lot of hypocrisy, not to mention selfishness and greed, around, as well as the dubious proiritisation I mentioned in the post. There really ought to be enough for everyone in this world, but because of the greed of the few, that equation hasn't come about. And I'm not holding my breath in expectation of the situation changing any time soon.


Press75 was founded in 2008 and is one of the oldest thematic stores in WorldPress. Press75 was founded in 2008 and is one of the oldest thematic stores in WorldPress. Schuller has been operating the site for years, and according to the list it was once a half million dollars a year store. And Jason's been away from the themed store for some now. On the Flippa list, Jason reported that the actual sales are about $5,268 per monthly, with very low costs.
Turnover, however, appears to have declined significantly as it has concentrated on other activities. It' s unfortunate to see another rather celebrity themed store for Sale, especially one with so much story and so far track record. It' s natural that Jason is looking for new things with new enthusiasm for him, and I wish him good fortune.
Again, just as I felt with DevPress, I wish there was another way to achieve this than a live sale on Flippa. Hopefully, as with DevPress, someone from the WordPress fellowship will take it up and make Presse75 blossom again.
Press 75 Review: Make a love to her, make a hatred to her or do both at the same time!
Press75 was founded in 2008 by Jason Schuller from Seattle and is known for its videos and photos. Last February, according to an interviewer, he said that the first topic he ever sells was a videotopic ("video flick"). Following this great achievement, he added three more videos and kicked off Press75.
Whenever I sign up with a WordPress administrator or make a new design, I groan a little because I have the feeling that it's something I need to do now, not something I want to do. At the beginning of last year I even tried to make some really "simple themes", just to see if that would slow down my hunger for something refreshing, but in the end I felt honest as if I was just laying a tarpaulin over all the garbage in the backyard.
There are two Press75 choices - a one-year or a lifepack. Either way, you get full control over their topics. Anything. Anything. Since Press75 is known for his Videothemen somewhat, we begin with it. Whereas topics began as simple miniature views associated with pages of movies, they have certainly overcome that.
You can, for example, create a "Series" movie under different channel in the Serial topic. You can see, for example, in the screenshots below that I am on the second movie in the 3- Videoseries on the Action Channel. You' ll also find things like integrated movie gallery in some topics.
In addition to the videos, there are topics that are categorized as audiovisual topics, commercial topics, business topics, magazines, photo topics and portfolios. A lot of topics have a dual function in these catagories. There are only 9 appealing topics at this time. Whilst there is no frame that generally covers all Presse75 topics, and there is no way to generally pull and undo all of the artwork using the Drag &Drop feature, various topics will have other functions that are specifically for their use.
Seeing as these uses are sometimes very different (e.g. a movie topic vs. a forthcoming topic), the functions are also very different. There are a number of themed sites that take full benefit of third-party plug-ins. Overall, Press75 has some great functions for things like movies. Certainly they are more than a standard topic in this area.
However, there don't seem to be many extended functions that you could wish for in a "normal" topic. Honestly, there are some things I like about the Press75 topics, and there are some things I don't like very much. Overall, the topics generally have a tendency to have a deep or severe look.
If you look at the Massive Press topic screenshots below, for example, you can see that each image on the title page has a small number in the edge that indicates the number of commentaries. The one thing you can say for Press75 is that they are not scared to be brave with some of their styles.
Here is an example from a small section about serialclips. When we concentrate on the lower part of this movie, there are a number of things here that I don't really like. At first the movie is displayed as if it is seated in a kind of groovy.
For me at least it seems a bit like the artwork from an outdated videogame. Below are a few topics to give you an impression of what Press75 has to offer. Some of the topics at least involve the deployment of third-party plug-ins. There was another issue - a smaller one, but one that was repetitive on a few topics.
Writing in, I asked if there was something wrong with the subject. Next was released, and it was repaired, but then I saw the same problem in another topic. When you miss it in one, and somehow you might use a pattern to launch another topic, then it's not difficult to miss it in another.
In order to test the performance of some topics, I ran some of the demonstration topics on the Press75 website via Google PageSpeed Insights. A lot of topics never seem to touch this line. Of the topics I have tried in the past, I would say that the Press75 topics I have tried may have been slightly above the average.
Here is the outcome for the topic video-focused series. Here is the outcome for the Blocco themed.


Poi with butter and two hot beef croquettes, who wouldn't want a snack like that? Although the snack goes well anytime of the day and is a great complement with drinks or as an appetizer or a side dish!
So here's how you make Beef Croquettes with simple step by step instructions.
First of course you need to have some mince, it could also be made with mutton, but not with fish or chicken.
Pre cook the mince in the cooker, just a whistle will do as we just need it semi done.
Add a little water to the pressure cooker, not too much just enough to get a whistle and not burn.
Then pepper, cinnamon, cloves and jeera.
Once your garam masala is added to the dish then close the pressure cooker and keep it on for 15 minutes on a slow fire.
Post that, open the cooker again and check for water in it. If there's a lot of water in it left, like we had, then keep it on the fire till most of it evaporates.
Then break the two bread slices up and add them to the mince, bread is the binding agent.
Once your breads in, its time to put the croquette mixture into the blender.
Hopefully that should help, take a ball elongate it and roll it in the breadcrumb or rawa, till each croquette is coated evenly.
Make enough croquettes that your pan can handle, and include space that you need to turn them about.
Take a small ball, roll it on the board to make it elongated.
Then roll it on the crumbs, also flatten both the ends.
Once you have enough croquettes for frying in the first lot put them on the pan.
This way you can end up doing it a little faster, while the first lot is getting down you can get the next lot ready.
Slow fire is the best to get the croquettes nicely done on all sides.
Turn them once in a while to make sure its getting cooked evenly all around.
Once their nicely done on all sides your Beef Croquettes are ready to eat.
Simply delicious must ry them out was looking for the receipe for a very long time thabks a million!
G'day! Have had croquettes before, but never beef, TRUE!
Loved your step by step photos! Very helpful too!
Carrots..Frenchbeans and Potato in croquettes? First time seeing these..tempted to try it out..lets see!
But why cant the same be tried with chicken ?. Is there any specific reason for the same?
SOmeone responded saying the croquettes never formed or stayed intact.
Can you tell me the proportion of the whole spices used. WOuld like to try out instead of using the powder.
these look awesome…by the way, instead of beef, can lamb be used too?
Hi Clyde, I like all the recipes of your Mom. Can you also upload the recipe for Beef mince/chops.
I have tried out many recipes and love the lay out given step by step with not only the next move in the procedure but the pictures.
The recipe looks tempting, I shall surely try it. But I want to know that instead if frying it directly, can't I deep fry the Croquettes, and while doing so what if it gets soaked.
I'm trying all your recipes one by one.
Clyde you are doing a great job with this site.

Meet the future generation of health managers at Western Sydney Local Health District
19 Mar, 2020, 11:55 am 19 Mar, 2020, 2:12 pm Jenny Harrison
WSLHD health management interns Erynn Johnson, Leila Brennan, Ashleigh Hampson and Emma Koster.
Four health management graduates are getting mentored by the best in the business, as they undertake a two-year traineeship with senior executive staff across Western Sydney Local Health District (WSLHD).
The interns will rotate between a variety of management areas, including the executive unit, hospital operations, human resources and finance, during a full-time health management graduate program over two years.
Erynn Johnson, 23, is currently working in the Office of the Chief Executive, after recently moving from Sydney from Canberra for the opportunity.
"The health management graduate program provides a great opportunity to develop and grow your management skills within a health service," Erynn said.
"We are receiving so much support and mentoring from the chief executive Graeme Loy and the executive team.
"Working alongside Graeme, I have exposure to whole of district corporate and clinical operations which is quite a unique experience.
"My rotation within the Office of the Chief Executive has been invaluable to my development as a future leader and manager within the health system.
"The district is undergoing a lot of transformational change and growth, which makes this role a very exciting opportunity to be involved in."
Health managers of the future Emma Koster, Ashleigh Hampson, Leila Brennan and Erynn Johnson.
The interns perform duties such as preparing complex briefs for hospital management and NSW Health, contributing to business cases, analysing data, managing finance matters, coordinating strategic meetings for senior staff and getting involved in some large scale projects.
WSLHD Office of the Chief Executive director Tiffany Sly said the program will help the graduates gain skills and experience "for a challenging and successful career" by being immersed in day-to-day health management, as well as attending training sessions, health conferences and developing a support framework.
"These motivated and talented people combine their studies with on-the-job work commitments in either an operational or finance directorate," Tiffany said.
The health management interns are undertaking a two-year traineeship at WSLHD.
"We hope to see these enthusiastic student graduates flourish and retain full-time employment with the district. Health is a rewarding and important career, and we hope to capture and train up talented staff to focus on health management."
Each postgraduate student is undertaking a Masters of Health Service Management with the University of Tasmania.

A registration (draft) for a sound recording covers the performance and production authorship involved in creating that recording, but does not cover the music, lyrics, words, or other underlying content embodied in that recording. Likewise, a registration for a musical work covers the music and lyrics embodied in that composition, and a registration for a dramatic work or a literary work covers the text and music embodied in that work, but it does not cover a particular recording of those works.
An applicant may use one application to register a sound recording together with a musical work, a dramatic work, or a literary work if the recording and the music, lyrics, words, or other underlying content are embodied in the same phonorecord and if the claimant owns the copyright in both works. If the copyright in the sound recording and the underlying content are owned by different parties, a separate application and filing fee must be submitted for each work.
It also may be possible to register multiple sound recordings together with the music, lyrics, words, or other underlying content embodied in each recording if the recordings and the underlying content is owned by the same claimant and if they were packaged or physically bundled together as a single unit and first published on the same date. This is known as the unit of publication option.
Sound recordings are often created by multiple performers and/or producers as joint authors. For example, a recording of a song might be jointly authored by the members of a band, or a singer and producer might be joint authors of the recording, depending on the authors' intent.
Generally, where there are multiple authors of a sound recording, the sound recording is a joint work and the applicant should name all the authors of that work. In such cases, the authors' contributions are not subject to separate registrations.
There may be instances, however, where different tracks of a sound recording were created as independent works, such as when a preexisting beat track is sampled in a song. In such cases, the beat track and the sound recording of the song should be registered separately — one as a derivative of the other.

Speed Star MK.1
The MK.1 was the first wheel from Speed Star, and as far as we can tell, the first 3-piece wheel ever. That said, its construction is not that of a typical 3-piece wheel. Both inner and outer shells have a full bowl shape that sandwiches a center disk, completely hiding it from view when the wheel is assembled.
In design, the MK.1 is a fairly boring dish wheel, but the details really set it apart from other simple dish wheels, and demonstrate well why Speed Star is often looked upon, as THE kyusha wheel brand. The outer shell section has the katana スピードスター scribed on it, sometimes… seemingly by hand. Wheel assembly bolts have the same markings on the bolt hex-heads which point inwards, leaving a nondescript nut on the outer face. The original wheels were all made for shank style lug nuts, which further simplified the wheel's appearance and construction.
The wheel was historically available in a wide variety of PCD's with widths from mild to wild. Still in production today, the MK.1 is hardly a rare find, but make no mistake, this is a very special iconic wheel.

7 tips to harness your inner squid powers in 'Splatoon'
Image: Nintendo
By Chelsea Stark 2015-06-08 12:03:17 UTC
Getting good at Splatoon is messy business.
Nintendo's original shooter, which pits teams of squid-kid hybrids against each other in colorful, fast-paced battles, is already gaining a lot of attention the Wii U. The game's accessibility and unique mechanics have attracted lots of players — both veterans of online shooters and newbies alike.
Fortunately, the game's different take on shooter objectives means both those groups are on equal footing as they start to level up in the game. There's lots of new things to pick up as you dive into the multiplayer matches, no matter what your skill level.
These tips will help you be as fresh as possible during your Splatoon matches.
1. Get used to the controls
Splatoon relies on the Wii U GamePad as its main controller, and generally can't be played with anything else. That means using a larger, heavier controller for some tight maneuvering. But since Splatoon also is set to use the GamePad's accelerometer to control the game's camera, it also means getting used to rotating the GamePad to change your point of view. That takes time.
Alternatively, you can turn off the motion controls in the game's settings, accessed from the GamePad screen. You can also invert your Y-axis, just like any other shooter.
The other control feature worth mentioning is your GamePad display, which is home to the minimap during matches. It's easy to ignore down there when you're focused on the TV, but periodically checking your map can give you a good idea of areas you need to address.
2. It's not all about a body count
Splatoon's main way to play is a four-on-four versus mode called "Turf War." Two teams must cover as much of their maps as possible in their own brightly-colored ink, while simultaneously making sure the other team doesn't overtake them. While playing offensively is certainly a fine strategy some of the time, spending all your time hunting down the opposing team doesn't get you any points at the end, and it could mean you didn't spend the precious seconds to cover every inch of floor in your neon goo.
While you should definitely keep the enemy team from encroaching on your turf by any means necessary, killing them outright doesn't boost your score. It also doesn't seem to affect your experience points from the match, which levels you up and unlocks new gear.
3. Know how to escape if you need to
Dying in Splatoon drops you all the way back to the spawn point, which can be a long way from the action. There are also several seconds where you are just out of the fight while you wait to respawn.
There are a lot of easy tricks to keep from dying. Splatoon's beauty is that it's a cover-based shooter where you can make cover anywhere. That means using your ink to create spots where you can quickly dive in to recharge, or hide from enemies. As you move forward, make sure there is a clear path behind you containing your ink, so you can quickly tap ZL and scoot away as a squid.
The ground doesn't have to be your only escape route either; squids can also climb up walls covered in their own ink, so you can quickly find higher ground if you're being attacked. Don't get too excited spraying walls, though, as they don't count toward your overall point total.
4. Paint, paint, paint
Every square inch of ground is your canvas, so don't get lazy when painting. There are many times where a match ends without even 90% of the whole ground painted. When everyone misses spots, it's good to use that to your advantage.
First off, paint your base. Don't skip it when you spawn in for the first time, because those are low-hanging points that the other team is rarely going to get to repaint. Even if your whole team rushes off to battle, be the person who stays behind to be thorough, because it could lead to eking out a victory.
When your team does spread out from the base, pick a route nobody else is covering. This helps you make sure to get enough coverage as you fan out, and it allows you to fill up the gauge in order to use your powerful special weapon (seen in the top right corner).
You'll end up playing the same maps over and over again in Splatoon, and with that familiarity comes knowledge of tiny nooks you can paint that the other team might miss. Check your map, too, as you might notice a spot that's completely unguarded — often the case on the "Saltspray Rig" map, which is full of twisting paths.
5. Super jumps: your secret best friend
As said earlier, it's easy to forget about your map when it's resting between your hands, but it's critical if you want to speed around quickly. Tapping another character or the game's spawn point allows you to super jump to that location. The move has a long wind up before you blast off, but it's an easy way to cover a lot of ground.
The first, most obvious use is to get back into the action quickly right after a respawn by tapping one of your teammates, since swimming back through all that ink can take precious time. But, you can also use it to backtrack. If you see someone in a contested area, or want to move back to your base, it's a great option. You can also use the super jump to escape a perilous situation, like when you're out of ink and surrounded by the enemy color, but the wind-up could mean you get killed before you take off.
A few of the weapons also offer a sub power that allows players to drop a beacon, which can be targeted for super jumps. It only lasts until the opposing team paints over it, so it won't survive long in a hotly contested zone.
6. Spend time learning each weapon
One of the ways Splatoon varies from traditional shooters are the weapons. These guns aren't meant to be supremely accurate; they are meant to spread as much paint around as possible. Still, there is a huge variety to support different styles of play, so it's important to test each one out — the trial mode in the Weapon Shop allows you to easily switch between them and find the best tool for the job.
There are three weapon classes in the game: shooter, charger and roller. Shooters cover a variety of more easy-to-understand guns, with faster rates of fire and a medium range. Your default starting weapon in Splatoon, the Splattershot Jr., falls in this class.
The charger weapons all have a much longer range, but are slow. Some models even have a scope so you can line up a shot from a distance. If there was a strictly offense-focused weapon in Splatoon, these would be it.
Finally, the rollers, which are literally weaponized paint rollers, are almost a support class weapon, as they allow you to paint the largest swaths of field quickly. They aren't as effective in combat — you can only flick blobs of ink a short distance, though you can quickly drive over an unsuspecting enemy if they don't see you coming.
All three weapon types get upgraded versions, which are available to purchase as you level up, and grinding through levels is definitely worth it to get the best versions.
7. Don't forget about your special move
Your special weapon is powered up as you paint, so it takes a while to get it charged. The results are generally worth it though, as you can do a lot of damage (or spray a lot of paint) when you finally get access to it.
First, don't forget to keep an eye on your gauge in the top-right corner to check your process. Having to respawn also knocks your progress back significantly, which is another reason to sometimes play it safe if you're close to unlocking your power.
Finally, if you're almost out of ink, it's the perfect time to deploy the weapon. It refills your ink as you deploy, giving you a whole new tank to unleash.

Just this morning, I picked up a magazine and came across this reader column, where a reader asked about a certain fuel product found in our Northern neighbouring country. He was enquring about the difference between the said product and similiar product that is found in our local market. I guess it's natural that one questions about the product differences, especially if the product informations are not forthcoming. So I thought the question was a legitimate one.
Question: What's the difference between the two products?
Answer: The fuel specifications depend on country-specific legislations and requirements, and the addictives are formulated based on the actual needs of our customer requirements.
Question: Are you planning to introduce this product in Singapore?

Brother is keepin an eye on you!
So…lately I've been obsessing with going through family pics from the early years of our homeschooling adventure. The years when I had at least one preK or kindergartner.
What spurred this ADHD hyper-focus? A post on a homeschool Facebook group I'm on. It wasn't anything new, I've seen the same sort of post a hundred times over the years. We've all been there…overwhelmed newbie homeschool mom feeling like a failure, trying to homeschool her oldest (a kindergartner) while also parenting (and in this case, also gestating) littles. BTDT, as they say.
The stress and the constant feeling of overwhelm those early years…I remember that feeling well.
Heck, I still feel that quite often, over a decade later, with older kids! But it's especially potent those early years when you are still so unsure of yourself, and you're still learning how to parent, and then you add homeschooling into the mix!
You start off completely overwhelmed because you just don't know where to start, and there's SOOOO much info to take in. AND YOU JUST DON'T WANT TO SCREW THIS UP!!
Dreams shattered as reality sets in. We've ALL been there.
And you feel like giving up.
You just need a new, realistic, vision.
So I thought I'd share the kinds of things we did (successfully and often) those early homeschool years. The things that made those early years special and meaningful…and turned out to be fairly easy to set up and follow through on (even for an ADHD mom like me!)…and great learning experiences to boot!
But anyway, none of that matters in the long run. The messy house, the mommy failures, the plans gone awry, the lack of a daily schedule, the stressed out mom…none of it. The pics and videos you are about to see are of the things that will stick in my kids and my memories forever. These are the things that probably have given them the deepest and most worthwhile learning experiences. Because they also provided the greatest opportunities for connection. With me and with others. And they were fun!
So do the best you can with what you've got, and give yourself the ok to just relax and BE with your kids those early days. There's plenty of time for more structured learning when they are older. And it's these fun, meaningful times that will be the things that stick and mean the most to them.
My kids have turned out pretty darn good, despite what I felt was not up to par at the time. I know yours will too.
I know this not only because my kids have turned out great…but because I can now look back and see things differently. I can see now, through looking through all the pictures and videos, that I actually did really well, despite my floundering. They really did have a very diverse, enriching early childhood! And I'm very proud of that.
Let go of your idea of what things "should" look like and embrace your reality.
Concentrate first and foremost on CONNECTING WITH YOUR KIDS.
And, especially those early years: PLAY!! Because that's how children learn during those early years!
I learned this through trial and error.
When you have a good connection with your kids, you can accomplish so much more in your lives together. You can work TOGETHER towards common goals, because they WANT to do things for you and with you. And they want this because they are connected to you and they care deeply about you and your feelings and you care deeply about them and their feelings. Connection is everything.
Disconnection is what causes so many of the problems that we have with our children. So work on building and maintaining a good connection with your child first and foremost! Especially in those early years, to build that strong foundation to be added on in the future.
…And give yourself a break!! You're never going to be perfect, and your house and your homeschooling plan is probably never going to go exactly like you envision it…so just let go of that…RIGHT NOW. DO YOU HEAR ME?
Don't make me start singing that obnoxious ear worm of a song.
Now watch this video RIGHT NOW.
It will make you feel better and probably make you laugh out loud as well.
Feel better? Me too. I love this lady. Watch more of her videos on her YouTube channel for more laughs.
So celebrate the little things!
Our early homeschool years weren't at all what I had wanted or expected at the time…but in retrospect, going through scads of photos and videos of those years…turns out I did pretty damn good! I'm proud of myself and all that we did, and how many wonderful experiences they had, because of and even IN SPITE of me!
So right now, I want you to put down the curriculum, stop browsing the online homeschool stores for worksheets and books on teaching your kindergartner.
You don't need them. Trust me.
and spend quality time with your little ones.
This is FAR more valuable than any curriculum in the early years.
The early years can be VERY ENRICHING and AWESOME without any complicated plans…indeed, without any organized academics at all…when laid out in galleries of photos, you can actually see all the AWESOMENESS, quite clearly!
And I hope it encourages you to slow down and go easier on yourself.

>Rwandan Genocide
From Vichy to Rwanda, France reconsiders its past
A first step toward recognition of past moral responsibility
On the occasion of the 27th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide, there has been a lot of talk about those terrible hundred days and how one of the most atrocious and violent ethnic cleansings in history occurred. This year's anniversary was marked by the release of a report called La France, le Rwanda et le génocide des Tutsi (1990-1994), commissioned by President Emmanuel Macron in 2019 and presented on March 26, 2021. The report, which was put together by a cluster of French historians, prompted soul-searching about France's responsibilities in having turned a blind eye to genocide preparations.
"Is France an accomplice to the genocide of the Tutsi? If by this we mean a willingness to join a genocidal operation, nothing in the archives that were examined demonstrates this. There was no direct complicity. Nevertheless, several factors fostered Hutu extremism and violence against the Tutsi: France's alignment with the Habyarimana regime; the army's excessive armament and militarization; the lack of support to internal opposition; the demonization of the RPF (Rwandan Patriotic Front) as "neither Ugandan nor Tutsi". The research, therefore, establishes a set of responsibilities, both serious and overwhelming. For a long time, France was involved with a regime that encouraged racist massacres. It remained blind to the preparation of a genocide by the most radical elements of this regime. It adopted a binary view opposing the 'Hutu ally' embodied by President Habyarimana and the RPF, which was seen as the enemy. What we assessed was a collective refusal to face the reality that brought things to a head", said Vincent Duclert, the head of the Research Commission on the French Archives relating to Rwanda and the Tutsi genocide.
"In the end," the report says, "French authorities were astonished by what was happening, as if acting in the face of genocide was not a possibility, notwithstanding the second half of the twentieth century having been marked by a moral obligation to do whatever it takes to never again allow genocides to occur".
Emmanuel Macron's France decision to cast light on its conduct and responsibilities in the Rwandan genocide, one of History's darkest pages, is all the more relevant if one considers that it came after Jacques Chirac's mea culpa on July 16, 1995. On that occasion, the former French President publicly recognized the responsibility of France in the Holocaust and the continuity between Vichy and the French state, which his predecessor François Mitterrand had always denied.
Two years ago, on the 25th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide, President Macron appointed Duclert and a panel of experts to produce a public report on the causes and responsibilities of the Rwandan genocide. To this end, Macron gave the experts unprecedented, though still partial, access to French government archives (the commission did not have access to sources related to the Quilès Mission in 1998 or to Jean-Christophe Mitterrand, the former President's son, who was in charge of African affairs at the Élysée). "The report will examine France's role and activity in Rwanda from 1990 to 1994; contribute to a better understanding, historical knowledge, and inclusion in the collective memory of the tragedy of the Tutsis, particularly in relation to younger generations", Macron wrote to Duclert in a letter that was made public together with the report. In the past, Duclert had already chaired an important study on genocides and mass crimes: like the decision to teach the Tutsi genocide in schools, Duclert's study laid the groundwork for a growing knowledge of facts. "In Rwanda as well as in France, the report nurtured the desire to understand rather than to judge. This pacification seemed unimaginable because of the still-open wounds of the genocide: now, it encourages the expression of the truth, it promotes reconciliation with Rwanda, and it sets the foundations for a renewed mutual trust", said Duclert.
On April 7, the Day of Remembrance of the Tutsi Genocide in Rwanda, Paris also announced the public opening of the Rwanda archives of former French president Francois Mitterrand, who was in power when the genocide occurred, and of his Prime Minister Édouard Balladur, though other 8000 documents are yet to be made public. Asked by what was happening in Rwanda at the Franco-African summit in Biarritz, in 1994, Mitterrand said that "local chiefs had deliberately decided to conduct adventures at the point of a bayonet or settle their quarrels with machetes", washing the hands of France and the international community of any responsibility towards those whom they considered being nothing but savages. "President François Mitterrand and his inner circle have a great responsibility in this genocide, but it took more than a quarter of a century before his successors recognized this", Françoise Kankindi writes. Kankindi, who lost part of her family in the genocide, is the president of an association called Bene Rwanda: in 1994, she was studying in Milan, from where she witnessed the genocide.
On the Day of Remembrance of the genocide, Rwandan President Paul Kagame also welcomed the Duclert report by saying that it marks "an important step towards a common understanding of what happened".
This massive piece of work, which was handed over to Macron and made available for public consultation, has also attracted criticism for being "solely French" or, as some Rwandan authorities argued, because it lacks reference to some important facts. Yet, the Duclert report has great symbolic relevance not only for France but also for other countries in which nothing has yet been done to shed light on other dark pages and whose responsibilities are still unspoken. The Duclert report also serves as a concrete act, made of historical analyses, which will hopefully lay the foundations to build a more conscious and aware attitude to the horrors of the past, and to those that, unfortunately, despite the "never again" promise, are still ongoing.

This morning as I was drinking my coffee (probably about cup number 8 or 9), I began to think about my horses, showing and why I am so enthralled with the whole thing. Unless a person is a trainer or a large breeder, showing one's morgan horse throughout the summer is mainly a hobby; a very, very expensive hobby. As I look at the amount of money that I have spent over the years, I began to think about why I do it. Why do I spend so much money and time to go around a ring on my horse to have a judge and others on the rail decide whether I or my horse is any good? I am not degrading this, I am just honestly wondering why I do it.
I have come up with many possible answers to this question, but so far I have not decided which one best fits my situation. In reality, they probably all do.
As many of you know I get very, very nervous before I enter the ring (I often decide that I am absolutely crazy to think this is a good idea) but when I exit the ring I always feel that I have accomplished something (even if it is not falling off or crashing). So, maybe I do it to test myself and prove to myself and others that I can swallow my fears in order to climb one more rung on my personal confidence ladder.
The other possibility is that I after I have worked so hard taking lessons all year I want others to see that I have improved. A fear I have for when I finally ride my horse at a rated show is that people will say to themselves or others "That is a really nice horse. Too bad that lady can't ride" (you know you've heard this, too). And on this same line, maybe I want to prove that I am worthy to own and ride a nice horse.
Maybe I want others to agree with me that my horses are as pretty and/or talented as I think they are. This certainly makes spending all the money to buy or produce them not seem like a waste of resources. I don't know why, but I do want others to say that they are beautiful. If people don't agree, it doesn't reduce my love for them so why do I care?
I am also a very competitive person and, like most people, I like winning at things. Since I don't really have an outlet for that anymore. For those of you that have kids (or a husband…just kidding, honey!), you can understand this; How many games of Candy Land or Don't Break the Ice have you thrown? I do like competing against others to win. Is that just Human Nature?
Or possibly it is the comraderie that comes with owning and showing horses. I have met some very fun, and interesting people (as well as some very strange ones) all of which have added something special to my life.
So as I am sorting out why I am going out early in the cold weather to ride my horses and sitting on a hot horse in 90 degree weather wearing a 3 piece suit sweating this summer, I am also wondering why others do it? Why do you show your Morgan Horse?
13 Responses to Why Do We Do It?
Yet, there is something within me uniquely touched by horses and showing. I'm not sure I can put my finger on it. I remember the first time I went to the fair and saw horses shown, thinking "That's me!" I remember thinking those horses were the most beautiful thing in the world… The whole picture was just eternally memorable and imprinted on my soul.
Growing up, I was never a particularly athletic child. Okay, let's call a spade a spade: I was the child last picked for kickball, etc. As an adult rider, I've become quite athletic and enjoy it. I've actually been able to feel pretty while riding… Horses do something for the inside of my soul and spirit that I could never get from the rest of the world.
And yes, I'm very competitive. Although I did well in school and have multiple college degrees (yes, I'm a geek), I still enjoy pinning well and especially winning. I'm okay with the ribbons as long as I remind myself the my personal value and self-esteem are NOT dictated by the color of the placement!
So, why do I show? I show because I love every aspect of it (except the pre-class diarrhea) and want to take that beautiful picture to the world so others can enjoy it and be inspired… Horses are very special and do something very special for me personally.
i ask myself this everytime i run behind a nearby bulding to puke before my classes haha. the nerves really get to me, but once i hit that ingate my body just goes numb The reason i show is because I work so hard all year and i want to see how much my work pays off :)in the end, the victory pass completely outweighs my dry bank account!
All I have ever wanted is to train and show a horse of my very own. While trying to achieve this goal I have faced the cruelest side of the horse industry more than once. There was even a point where I stopped going to the barn. I was sure that I would never even look back. By fate I was brought to a horse that would change my mind forever. He gave me the courage to continue fighting to achieve my dreams.
I now have a horse of my own and he and I are working on the training part. This year I hope that we will be able to show. I can't wait to see him in the ring. To see him mature and progress over the past year is just amazing to me. I adore my horse and I can't wait to see where he takes me.
I think the feeling of accomplishment is the best part. To show a horse is one thing, but to learn and grow with them is another.
At okc this year I sold my horse for quite alot of money. While I should have been thinking about paying off my car, or decorating my new home, Starting a new life with my fiance, or maybe even donating to a charity. The only thought that entered in to my mind is-What color is my next horse going to be? I know I have an addiction problem with morgan horses. People in this industry have been both welcoming and completely nasty to me, But it is all about the horses to me. It is my dream one day to be doing a vicory pass at nationals on a horse that is my partner. There for I will drive several hours a week to see her. There for all of my pay checks with go to her trainer. I know this sound bizarr, but it is the love of the morgan horse.
For me it's definitely the competitive thing, coupled with my love of everything HORSE SHOW -the clipping, bathing, hoof sanding, hours spent cleaning my tack, imagining my classes and who will be in them. I love the grounds themselves; how they smell, the sounds of hollering horses, watching my peers and childhood idols alike. But obviously it is because of this amazing breed. I'm always anticiapting laying my eyes upon a new breath-taking star or I'm looking forward to see the veterans coming back year after year. To me life would be "flat" without the thrill and passion of horse shows.
I used to struggle with this question. Especially when I quit working to raise our children, but also wanted to have horses to keep me "busy". I felt guilty spending money that I did not earn for my pleasure, especially since neither my husband or kids had any interest whatsoever. Fortunately, my husband understood me better than I did and encouraged me. I have finally accepted that it is a passion that is its own justification. There is no rationalizing it. It's actually similar to my husband's passion for Steelers football.
On those rare occasions when I do feel the need to rationalize my passion, I say that I'm stimulating the economy.
Since I got my first yellow ribbon at day camp, when I was 6, I have been hooked on showing. It is a given that I am a competitive person, so I look to what else makes me spend all my extra cash. Yep, the Morgan personality is what keeps me with this breed…but why showing? I think for everyone, there is a feeling of utter joy at some point…otherwise, why do it.
For me, that feeling originated when I rode Saddleseat. There is nothing like the feeling of trotting up the in-ramp and climbing down the rail. That moment when the horse engages their hind-end motor. You are pushed to the back of the cutback, the neck comes up in between your hands, and you tilt your eyes down and see the horses upper leg and knee as they climb down the rail. When it is right…it just feels perfect…and nothing, I mean nothing, can stop the smile that comes to my face.
That, for me, is why I keep showing…for those moments when the smile just won't stop.
Wow! I am invisioning a fabulous poster here. I had one of those rides yesterday – when you can see the knees, and they rise up and are light and bright, there is nothing like it….but this was out trotting in the state land across the street…so why do I need to do pay MONEY to do it publicly in front of EVERYONE?? I think for me its showing the public what a great partnership I have, and making my trainer(s) and husband proud. (yes I am a pleaser type).
Good question. I really don't know why I do it, but I know that I've tried to stop or take a year off but it never works. Every year I say I'm going to retire my horse at the end of the season, but then when spring rolls around I get the bug and go for "just one more season." It was a running joke at my barn.
I don't keep my horse in training, I do my own show care and grooming, and I've mostly done local open shows rather than the Morgan circuit, so showing hasn't been quite as ridiculously expensive for me as it is for those who do the big shows, but I've still ended the summer with credit card debt a few times. Stupid, but I keep doing it.
It's a competitive, athletic, and social outlet, but I'm sure I could find better outlets that are actually within my financial means. If I go to shows just to watch, photograph, or groom for friends, it's never the same. I can't explain it. I guess it's just a purely emotional, illogical thing.
Why do I do it? WHY do I do it? Why DO I do it? No matter how I approach the question, I cannot honestly come up with any one answer. I, like many, spend entirely too much time, effort money on my horses with no rational explanation. I do however know that I wake each and every day and feel sooooo extremely fortunate that I really need no paticular reason at all – That in and of itself is a good enough reason for me!
This is an excellent question, and one I have struggled with a number of times. I even gave up showing for one year a long time ago, but it "didn't take." I was right back the following year. I just couldn't stay away. I love being with horses and horse people. I love the competition. I love the exhilaration when my horse and I are on exactly the same page and we perform brilliantly. I love when we are so `on' that we even manage to beat some of the `big guns' out there. I compete in the carriage division (open shows and the Morgan circuit), and it's a bit more work than some of the other divisions (loads of harness and brass to polish, multiple cones courses to memorize and walk.. multiple times!). So yeah, when it's 90 degrees and I'm out in a field somewhere walking timed obstacles for the umpteenth time, I start to question why I'm even out there. But the `bad' far outweighs the good, so I continue to make sacrifices in my personal life and put every spare penny into the horses. Ultimately, it's totally worth it.
That's a good question. My grandfather got me into the sport of riding before I could even walk. I will always remember the first time I was riding a little pony in a paddock and my grandfather forgot to tighten the girth and off I went into the wood chips. I was about 5 and haven't stopped riding yet. I started showing when I was 8. Ever since then I have gone every year. I love showing, I spend all my extra time conditioning and training my horses in the off season and at the shows it all pays off. I love the morgan people, they are so nice. Personally, I can't see myself not showing!

Have You Heard This Hilarious Joke About Uhuru, Raila and Karua Travelling on a Train?
Raila,uhuru, Ngilu and Martha Karua are travelling in a train. The train suddenly goes through a tunnel and it gets completely dark.
Suddenly there is a kissing sound and then a hard slap! The train comes out of the tunnel. Ngilu and Raila are sitting there looking perplexed. Uhuru is bent over holding his face, which is red from an apparent slap.
All of them are diplomatic and nobody says anything.
Raila is thinking: "If this train goes through another tunnel, I will make another kissing sound and slap Uhuru again!
