All-in-all, the Cryorig H7 is a mightily impressive cooler.
For starters, it looks great – the top of the cooler is covered by some svelte black plastic which keeps the H7 looking sleek, while it is also very compact at just 145mm tall.
Installation is straightforward, though at one point you do have to hold the cooler in-place upside-down while tightening the four screws. It sounds harder than it is, but if Cryorig tweaked the process to mean you didn't have to flip the motherboard on its head, that would be a plus.
However, the H7's performance more than makes up for the slightly fiddly installation. Simply put, for a £37 air cooler, the Cryorig H7 is fantastic. We saw it go toe-to-toe with much more expensive air and liquid coolers, even coming out on-top when compared with the MasterAir Maker 8 from Cooler Master. It also beat the Hyper 212 LED by 5 degrees.
Acoustically, it is just as impressive. The fan is simply not audible when the system is idling, while under load, the noise is far from intrusive.
As such, I feel obliged to give the Cryorig H7 our highest, 'Must Have' award. If you are looking for a simple, compact and affordable air cooler, you won't find one better than this.
You can buy the whole Cryorig range from Overclockers UK, and you can find the H7 for £36.95 inc. VAT over HERE.
Discuss on our Facebook page, over HERE.
- Looks great.
- Nice and compact.
- Beats out similarly-priced competitors by a significant margin.
- It even challenges much more expensive liquid coolers.
- Very affordable.
- Installation process requires you to hold the cooler in-place while tightening 4 screws.
KitGuru says: For such a small, and affordable, air cooler, the Cryorig H7 is mightily impressive. If you are in the market for a new air cooler, this one is seriously competitive.

Tag Archives: Who's That Girl (Film)
Today in Madonna History: December 19, 1987
On December 19 1987, Madonna's haunting ballad The Look Of Love peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart. The third and final Madonna single from the Who's That Girl soundtrack, it was released only in select European countries and in Japan.
The Look Of Love was written, produced and recorded by Madonna and Patrick Leonard during the second of a three-day studio session, with the title track of the soundtrack being written and recorded on the first day. Additional musicians were brought in for overdubs and mixing was completed for both tracks by the end of the third day.
Despite being a set-list staple on the Who's That Girl tour – the song's limited release, moderate chart success, along with the fact that it has not been included in any of Madonna's subsequent retrospective collections has led to it being largely forgotten, although fans frequently cite it as an underrated gem.
In a 1991 interview with ICON magazine, background vocalist Niki Haris expressed fond memories of performing the track with Madonna during the 1987 tour:
"My favorite song ever to perform with Madonna was a song called The Look Of Love from the Who's That Girl Tour [Niki sings: Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide…]. That is one of the greatest songs and Madonna sings it really great. That's my favorite song of all time as far as singing with her."
The single reached number six in Ireland, number eight in the Netherlands and number ten in Belgium, while it peaked outside the top-ten in Germany, Switzerland, France and Japan.
Today in Madonna History: May 11, 1987
On May 11 1987, Madonna and Griffin Dunne were featured on the cover of People Magazine with a photo taken from the then-forthcoming film, Who's That Girl.
In May 2014, Griffin was asked the following question by Melissa Parker (Smashing Interviews Magazine):
Was Madonna difficult to work with in Who's That Girl?
Griffin Dunne: No, not at all. She was very funny. We actually had a lot of laughs making that movie. She was just enormously famous. I think all of our scenes that were shot outdoors had to be re-recorded because the sky was just filled with helicopters, and photographers followed her everywhere she went. But she had a real sense of humor about it. She enjoyed all that, I thought, in a pretty healthy way.
Today in Madonna History: April 16, 1993
On April 16 1993, Body Of Evidence (starring Madonna) opened in cinemas across the U.K.
Roger Ebert had this to say about the film:
I've seen comedies with fewer laughs than Body of Evidence, and this is a movie that isn't even trying to be funny. It's an excruciatingly incompetent entry in the Basic Instinct genre, filled with lines that only a screenwriter could love, and burdened with a plot that confuses mystery with confusion.
The movie stars Madonna, who after Bloodhounds of Broadway, Shanghai Surprise and Who's That Girl? now nails down her title as the queen of movies that were bad ideas right from the beginning. She plays a kinky dominatrix involved in ingenious and hazardous sex with an aging millionaire who has a bad heart. He dies after an evening's entertainment, and Madonna is charged with his murder.
Today in Madonna History: October 10, 1987
On October 10 1987, Madonna appeared on the cover of Australia's TV Week magazine.
We're taking this opportunity to share most of the published Herb Ritts photos from this shoot. Enjoy!
Today in Madonna History: October 3, 1987
On October 3 1987, Madonna's second single from the Who's That Girl film soundtrack, Causing A Commotion, debuted at #24 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in the USA.
This is what Camille Paglia had to say about the song:
"I recall my stunned admiration as I sat in the theatre in 1987 and first experienced the crashing, descending chords of Madonna's Causing a Commotion, which opened her dreadful movie Who's That Girl. If you want to hear the essence of modernity, listen to those chords, infernal, apocalyptic, and grossly sensual. This is the authentic voice of fin de siècle."

Dr Adrian F. Hernandez: Mapping Human Health Through Project Baseline
The purpose of Project Baseline is to map human health so we can convert from a reactive healthcare system to a proactive healthcare system, explained Adrian F. Hernandez, MD, MHS, vice dean, clinical research, Duke University School of Medicine
This page contains sponsored advertising.
In some ways, the United States is progressive in its use of real-world evidence, but there are still areas where other countries do a better job of incorporating such evidence into the health system, explained Adrian F. Hernandez, MD, MHS, vice dean, clinical research, Duke University School of Medicine.
What is Project Baseline? What is the purpose and how along into the study are you?
Project Baseline is a study that's partnered between Duke, Stanford, and Verily, which is a subsidiary of Alphabet, and the main goal is to map human health. Just like the roads have been mapped in the past in terms of understanding how to get from point a from point b, to the same thing in terms of what do we understand about health today and understand transitions from other health states tomorrow or a year from now and then incorporating a variety of signals that would help us map out what someone's health trajectory is.
An example is having a foundation of genomics or a foundation of what's in their environment or a foundation of what their microbiome is, and then over time seeing how that changes, and picking up new signals from their daily activity to how they're feeling to how they're sleeping, and then incorporating all of that to see if we can have better signals and converting from a reactive healthcare system to a proactive system so that we can actually do something to so-called prevent the car crash in health like for how we do with Google Maps.

The main focus was playing catch up on Quadrant and I managed that quite well. I'm fast working through the latter half of volume two, otherwise known as the time travel arc. I don't want to give away much on this one, but I will reassure everyone that it continues to prove how much fun developing new tales of the Morgan brothers is for me.
I'll have more on the future of Quadrant in updates very soon. Over the next year, I hope to make the brothers' saga as important as Lightweight currently is in my publishing schedule. With that in mind, I have big plans for the characters in the weeks and months ahead!
Before I wrap this blog up I wanted to remind everyone that The Good Fight 5: The Golden Age will be available to read as of tomorrow. Go get your copies pre-ordered now!

Acid is Groovy- Kill the Pigs!
One of the big Manson memorabilia dealers out there, and the only one with any honesty, is this acid casualty that calls himself Jon Aes-Nihil. He sells bootleg videos out of the back of a yellow van at LA area flea markets, as well as on the web at his site. He's wacky to talk to, since each response ends up with about a three second delay as he struggles to formulate his thoughts. But he really is a sweetheart, especially for a guy who wants to get to the bottom of the case, and violates copyright laws for a living. You know he rocks the house when, after some initial bonding, Bill Nelson would rag on him on his site. I vaguely recall that Bill kept some of John's master tapes that took him years to get back from the guy.
Anyway, word on the street has it that John (Jon?) has finished his homemade film, MANSON FAMILY MOVIES. Now while this isn't a major moment in cinema, this will be interesting to see. Taking the lead from a mention (likely false) in Ed Sanders delirious book THE FAMILY, Jon has been producing, writing and directing this extravaganza in his spare time for something like 192 years. It is supposed to be the killings as if the killers themselves filmed them as they were doing them. It will be cheap, raw, ghastly and probably a big huge mess of madness. I'll be the first one to buy a copy (I've had a VHS cut of the film from his truck for like 5 years now) and I think you should put aside $20 and get yours too. Hell, it's got to be better than the latest coherent Hollywood tripe.

Today, the Morgan Silver Dollar Coin remembers the christening of the battleship Illinois on October 4, 1898 and the gift to her sponsor.
From the Washington, DC, Times of the following day:
Royal Gift to the Waves
The Launching of the Noble Battleship Illinois.
Brave Sight in the James
Forty Thousand Persons Cheered Ecstatically, Many Whistles Blew Noisily, and Myriad Flags Waved Triumphantly at the Words of Miss Leiter Christening the Proud Craft, and Giving Her to Freedom and the Sea
Many Distinguished Persons Present At the Banquet, Later in the Afternoon, the Sponsor Was Presented With a Beautiful Miniature of the Ship Done in Beaten Gold and White Enamel.
Newport News, Va., Oct. 4. Forty thousand persons witnessed the launching of the battleship Illinois at the plant of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company here this afternoon.
The time set for the event was 11 o'clock one hour before high tide, but it was an hour and a half after that time when the great throng of people whose patience was about exhausted, was carried away in ecstasy.
At 12:83 o'clock this afternoon the last plank which held the big hull in its position on the ways, was sawed in two and as the cradle began to move toward the water with its great mass of iron and steel, Miss Leiter, of Chicago, christened the new fighting monster in the time-honored manner by breaking a bottle of champagne over the bow.
As she threw the handsomely decorated bottle against the prow of the vessel, she exclaimed, in a clear and ringing voice, audible for some distance: "I christen thee Illinois!"
Cheers for the Noble Craft.
The new addition to Uncle Sam's navy was given a hearty welcome by the great crowd, as well as by every whistle in the stream, and as she drifted out into the channel many tugs, all gaily decorated, gathered around her, each one anxious to have a share in towing her to the pier nearby.
This was one of the prettiest launchings ever witnessed here—that of the Kentucky and Kearsarge not excepted.
The vessel moved steadily and majestically from the first, and had she been as far from the water as were the other vessels, thus giving her a longer run, the event would have been even more interesting.
The waters of the James River were never prettier, and as the waves lazily lapped the shore they almost washed the stern of the new vessel, while the workmen hurried the work of getting out the props.
A Clear Sky and Light Breezes.
The day was all that could be asked for. Early in the morning there were several showers, and the prospects for a good day were rather gloomy, but by 10:30 o'clock the sky began to clear up, only enough water having fallen to lay the dust, which had begun to fly around to such an extent as to be stifling.
The hot October sun broke out, and soon everybody was complaining of the heat, but later light breezes came gently from across the blue waters of the James.
Never before has any section of the country been represented in an Eastern city by as large and as representative body as was the State of Illinois and surrounding States here today.
The party on the christening stand at the bow of the vessel was the center of attraction. Here, in the midst of a crowd of admiring friends, was Miss Leiter, the sponsor.
Not far away were John R. Tanner, governor of Illinois; J. Hoge Tyler, governor of Virginia; Commodore Hichborn, naval constructor, Joseph Leiter, of Chicago, accompanied by his father and younger sister. Miss Daisy; Mayor Carter H. Harrison, of Chicago; Judge H. E. Hamlin, of Shelbyville. Ill.; Mrs. John A. Logan, and President Orcutt, of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company.
Many Public Men Present.
In addition to those already mentioned, there were present at the launching Assistant Secretary of the Navy Allen, who arrived this morning from the Portsmouth navy yard, on the President's dispatch boat Dolphin; Assistant Secretary of War Meiklejohn, who arrived at Old Point Comfort last night; Senator William E. Mason, of Illinois, accompanied by Mrs. and the Misses Mason; Secretary Finney, private secretary to the Secretary of the Navy; Secretary Wilson, of the Department of Agriculture; Congressman Foss, of Illinois; Captain Paget, British naval attaché at Washington. Gen. Mestrago, Russian naval attaché; M. Kenney, Italian naval attaché; M. Boeufve, French naval attaché; Judge Advocate General and Mrs. Lemly, and the following well-known Chicagoans: Gen. Reece, A. M. Rothschild, J. M. Truitt, C. D. Osborne and a host of others.
After the specially invited guests of the company had been escorted about the yard, they repaired to the steamer Newport News, which took them to Old Point Comfort.
There the party went to the Chamberlain Hotel and were entertained at a banquet by the builders of the man-of-war.
The following toasts were proposed and responded to: "Illinois," Gov. John R. Tanner; "Virginia." Gov. J. Hoge Tyler; "Chicago," Mayor Carter H. Harrison; "The President," Judge H. E. Hamlin, of Shelbyville, Ill.
Miss Leiter's Souvenir.
At the banquet Gov. Tanner presented Miss Leiter with a miniature of the ship, done in beaten gold and white enamel. The souvenir is made in the form of a badge. The ship is represented lying broadside on. The model is three inches in length and carries all the guns, life boats, the flag, jack, and banner of the original reduced to scale.
Below the ship, suspended by two gold chains, swings the great seal of the State of Illinois, also of beaten gold.
On the back of this is inscribed:
October 4, 1894.
Miss Nancy Leiter
John R. Tanner,
Governor of the State of Illinois.
The souvenir is a work of art, every detail of the ship being worked out to a nicety. The costume Miss Leiter wore on today's occasion was of pearl silk with trimmings of the same color. It was made especially for the occasion. She wore no jewelry whatever.
The Morgan Silver Dollar Coin shows with an artist's image of the Battleship Illinois, circa 1898.

Hm... if there's a wind blowing that's really strong, I think he might just blow over in a pose like that. Think about a time you've been in a really strong wind. Didn't you have to lean against the wind to keep balance?
But hey, it's not like it's a very dominant feature. Great job overall, especially the anatomy
>Kravvon Nar'roth
the light source is upper left, I agree that i have some problems with shading. But maybe you'll tell me more about palette? How to make it 'more interesting'?
In my imagination there is a strong wind blowing. Not sure how to show it here (animation is denied). But maybe you right and his hair doesn't fit... i dunno
There is something bothering me with his hair. I think it might be that the hair makes it look as if he's moving with great speed, while his pose only indicates a light jog.
I'm a little confused as to the lightsource... upper left I think? I think the palette on the bodysuit could also be a bit more interesting, and the blade of the sword is banded. But the pose really rocks, and the anatomy is pretty much spot-on.
thank you. i'll think about animation of this char. but it will take a lot of time, cause i have not any experience in it.
thanks. this is futuristic samurai, that's why he wear this kind of suit.
if hes samurai why is he not wearing a kimono? it looks like hes wearing a superman thing ^^
but anywho nice peice great shading

Indians in East Africa : how many are they today?
Laurent Nowik, Université de Tours
My presentation will analyze the Indian population in East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda) based on demographic statistics from the last few censuses. This work is still being finished as Kenya and Uganda have not publicly released the statistics relative to the Indian communities from their most recent censuses. The statistics bureaus have, however, accepted that we use these data for scientific purposes. After a brief overview of the history and demographics of the settling of Indians in East Africa, my presentation will discuss their recent demographical changes in Kenya and Uganda. This latter country is a particularly interesting case because, since their expulsion in 1972 under the dictator, Idi Amin Dada, we have seen a new Indian migration toward Uganda. Contrary to what many people believe, these immigrants are not "returnees". They seem rather to be "pioneers" who occupy relatively high socio-professional positions.

Dear Family and Friends,
After our housekeeper finished on Thursday, Chuck and I threw some clothes in a small bag and took a taxi to the bus station for a trip to Guayaquil. The main purpose of this trip was to get a visa at the Chinese consulate.
We bought tickets for seats 3 and 4. These are front row seats on the bus that sometimes provide a little more leg room and sometimes provides better views, since they are front row seats opposite from the driver.
While waiting around for the bus departure time, we discovered a restaurant located upstairs in the bus station. We went up there for a quick lunch before we headed out on our 4 hour trip to Guayaquil.
Here is a birds eye picture of our bus station.
The trip through the Cajas (a part of the Andes) is sometimes on paved road and sometimes on mud. It depends on whether the road has been washed out or not. A new road is being built and progress is going very well.
Here is a picture of the new road. We are riding on the completed side. The other side has the concrete poured but is covered to protect it from the rain while it cures.
There are advantages and disadvantages to riding in the front row seats. Here is a disadvantage. We were riding through thick fog in the mountains and this is the view we had. It is also the view the driver of the bus had. I think he was driving by braille.
We arrived in Guayaquil and took a taxi to Hotel Palace. This is a nice hotel located in the center of town. It has all the amenities that keeps Nancy happy.
Chuck checked out the address and hours of operation of the Chinese consulate. Having completed that task we took a taxi to the largest mall in Guayaquil, San Marino. It is a huge three story ultra modern mall. We looked for a new espresso maker since ours bit the dust last week. (this was due to cockpit error....I left it on without water in the tank!!!) No success!
We had dinner at the Sports Planet. It is larger than the Sports Planet in Cuenca, but it was also noisier. Chuck was happy to learn it was two for one night. Here is a happy man with his two Club beers.
The next morning we hired a driver and were on our way to get our visas by 9:00 am. We got to the consulate to learn that in addition to our passports we needed a copy of our airline e-tickets, a copy of our cedula (Ecuadorian ID), a copy of our passport and a small photo. Since the office only stayed open until 12:30, we were so glad we had a driver to run us to a internet cafe to print out a copy of our e-tickets, a photo store to make passport size photos, and a store to make copies of our cedula and passports.
We arrived back to the consulate before noon and filled out the paperwork and turned over the required material. The cost for our visas was $130 each. This is because we had U.S. passports. If we had Ecuadorian passports the cost would have been $80 each. The clerk said it would take one week to process. So Chuck is going back to Guayaquil next week to pick up our passports and visas.
Having completed our main purpose for going to Guayaquil we patted ourselves on the back and had the driver take us to where we could shop for art. He delivered us to the Banco Central Museum. Not exactly an art gallery for buying art, but we enjoyed it anyway. It is located on the malecon (a river front walk way).
Here is a picture I made out of the window of the museum. You can see part of the malecon and some of Guayaquil behind.
When we went back to the hotel to rest, Chuck suggested that we check out the next morning and take the bus to Machala. I figured why not, it is so hot and muggy here anyway.
So I'll blog about that part of our trip another time.
Have a nice Memorial Day everyone.
Nancy and Chuck

Measures to tackle rising costs for GPs will include proposals for providers operating in new models of care to take on corporate indemnity, so that individual GPs no longer have to take out personal cover, and could see a cap on fees claimed by lawyers in clinical negligence cases.
GPs at a special LMCs conference in January backed calls for the GPC to negotiate the extension of crown indemnity cover to general practice.
But NHS England's General Practice Forward View document appeared to rule out the move, warning: 'This would mean it is not possible to sue for damages and that the small minority of patients who had suffered harm as a result of clinical negligence would not have recourse to any financial compensation.
'We do not believe that this is the intent of the medical profession and this form of immunity does not apply to other health services.'
GP indemnity
The package of measures to support general practice unveiled by NHS England says that with the DH it will set out proposals in July for discussion 'with the profession, medical defence organisations, the commercial insurance industry and the NHS Litigation Authority'.
The plans will consider:
- How personal costs of indemnity and clinical insurance can be contained, provided certain clinical governance standards are met – with the objective of reducing the overall costs to the individual.
- Reducing indemnity costs for individuals in particular circumstances, such as GPs who wish to remain in the workforce on a part-time basis past a certain age.
- Enabling new models of care such as multi-speciality community providers (MCPs) to take on corporate indemnity, freeing up individuals working in those new models from the burden of personal indemnity costs.
The DH will also consult 'shortly' on a 'fixed recoverable cost scheme to cap the level of recoverable costs for claimant lawyers on clinical negligence claims'.
GPonline revealed last year that one in three GPs have seen medical indemnity fees rise 20% in the past five years, and reported on DH plans to impose a £100,000 cap on lawyers' fees in clinical negligence cases to save the NHS £80m.

Location: 1126 Kensington Rd NW
Website: http://highergroundcafe.ca/
The first time I went to Higher Ground I was drawn in by their atmosphere and extensive menu. Though I didn't order any food, the pot of lucky dragon green tea was cheap and great for sharing, but I can't say that it was my one of my favourite teas. This cafe is very cozy and makes me feel right at home as a writer. I could spend hours just sitting there drinking tea and coffee and working away at my novel. And that is what I did today.
Today I returned there with my sister and cousin for lunch. I've, for some reason, taken it upon myself to try every caprese panini in the world. Although it isn't called a caprese panini here, the mozzarella panini is essentially that: ball mozzarella, thick cut tomatoes, basil pesto and a balsamic dressing. This is one of the better paninis I've had and I think it's absolutely brilliant that they decided to use pesto rather than whole basil leaves because the most frustrating thing is biting into the sandwich and having the entire leaf of basil come out into your mouth. It sounded so good that my sister ordered the exact same thing. The only thing that differed was our sides. Mine came with a butternut squash soup and hers came with a B.L.A.T. salad. Now you may think B.L.A.T., what's that? Or what the heck is a B.L.A.T.?! But it is honest to goodness the best tasting salad ever! I would go back just to have that salad. Now everyone knows what a B.L.T. is, just add avocado to that. It is heaven paired with the lemon black pepper aioli. On the flip side, the butternut squash soup was a bit of a disappointment for me. I've had butternut squash soup at Vendome's and that one is amazing. I enjoy that at Vendome's there is a bit of cream added to increase the smoothness and richness of the soup, where as at Higher Ground there is a bit more acidity and unfortunately I had lumps of squash floating around in my soup. After the sandwiches we got two desserts. The first was a strawberry rhubarb pie. The piece was fairly large, but we had to ask them to warm it up twice and even then the pie wasn't even warm. The second dessert looked somewhat like a tuxedo cake, but I'm not entirely sure, since I wasn't the one who ordered it. That one was much better, though there really was a lot of cream. It was rich as chocolate cake should be and it left me wanting more.
In terms of drinks, we went through a lot in the five hours we were there (or at least that's how it felt). We started with a Kyoto Cherry Green Tea. It was more fragrant than it tasted. Though it was very mild, it was a very good tea. Perhaps I'm not seasoned enough to discern the subtle notes of the tea, but it was hard to taste the cherry, in fact it was even hard to taste the green tea. After that we got an Irish Breakfast. I don't know what I expected, but I didn't expect it to taste so much like English Breakfast. We had about three pots of that before the tea became to diluted. My cousin got a cappuccino after that. It was pretty bitter and had a lot of foam. After she added in some honey I found it to be just right, while she thought it was way too sweet and my sister still found it too bitter.
I will definitely be returning here with friends or even just with my cousin again to work on my novel. It is just the perfect environment to get my creativity flowing.
The drinks are cheap as we can constantly get the teapot refilled, but food, especially the desserts are a bit on the expensive side. However, taking everything into consideration, I would not consider it a turn off.
I would rate it 4.5/5, vying for the top position of my favourite cafe with Vendome.

Burke isn't a striker and never will be, he's out and out winger anyone can see this his attributes are his pace and crossing his shooting and first touch is not very good and you need that, were is bayo for god sake play the boy why buy him so frustrating.
03 Apr 2019 20:59:09
Was thinking exact same chrisbhoy. It's beginning to get annoying seeing him play up front.
03 Apr 2019 21:44:21
I wouldn't be disappointed if we didn't sign Burke and Ntcham is so laid back he's horizontal. However the talking point from the game will be the fans letting the club down again. We can't adopt the moral high ground if we continue to behave that way.
03 Apr 2019 21:55:54
What did fans do lawman? I never got chance to see or listen to game.
03 Apr 2019 21:56:34
I also hope we don't sign Lennon permanently either, since he came in it's been absolutely dire, yes we haven't lost but it's not nice to watch. oldkilly.
03 Apr 2019 22:07:27
Smoke flares and fire crackers. They are an absolute menace Philtim88 and if the club isn't seen to clamp down on them then I'm sure the authorities will gladly get involved and we don't want that.
03 Apr 2019 22:19:01
Bayo not away with ivory coast?
03 Apr 2019 22:30:30
He's won every game and drew one this is Brendans team remember he's trying to keep continuity and I don't think they were blowing teams away when he was there.
03 Apr 2019 22:38:47
I agree lawman, media as well. They will gladly jump on band wagon.
Old killy I'm starting to think that way as well. It's really frustrating his insistence playing Burke up top. Apart from his pace, he is overrated.
03 Apr 2019 22:47:54
Bayo injured.
03 Apr 2019 22:52:09
There were a few follow thrus when they exploded! Stupid young wannabe pyromaniacs full of cheap Ching and drink. More Brown hysteria on it's way after he fell onto their player. He will get a ban alongside the guy that belted Ayer with an elbow. We should get him signed up on a long contract asap. Not a great performance but 3 points in the bag. Burke is far better out n the wing. It was Rodgers that wanted him to be a forward player.
03 Apr 2019 22:52:17
Ramsey, no I don't think he is they played last week I don't think he played and they aren't scheduled to play again for a while, I really think he will add something up top and want to see how he does, I agree with oldkilly tonight was horrible to watch over played it so many times when the chance to shoot very frustrating we are better than this we need to go for the throat more.
03 Apr 2019 23:13:44
Obviously none of us know the boards plans yet as to who the next manager will be however I believe that if it is Lennon who is appointed our style of play will change. This style is still very much the way we played under the previous manager. Lennon himself said in his inter after the game he has not implemented anything to the side and he just nudged them along. Lennys teams play a more direct brand of football.
03 Apr 2019 23:14:46
I thought Bayo picked up a groin injury with Ivory Coast U/ 23's.
05 Apr 2019 15:43:39
I think we are going to have to have football played behind locked doors . Too many fans break the rules and laws whilst attending games . People who would never throw objects on to grass surfaces, mtake the opportunity to do so at football matches . Seldom can anyone go to full ball match without drinking alcohol in the hours before hand . People hurl loud abuse at players of both teams and youngsters have to listen to this, often from their father or mother who should be providing good example . Referees and assistants parentage are questioned? Interaction between opposing fans is incredulous and certainly not the environment that youngsters should hear or witness. The beautiful game is not a place you would want to bring your old granny . Atmosphere maybe better or worse than say 50 yrs ago, but 50 yrs ago it was mainly the preserve of men, now we have females present many seem to want to prove that they can just be as crude as big a loud mouth bully as the lout with half a doz cans and a bottle of red biddy inside him .
Why can football fans not behave like Rugby fans or GAA crowds?

text: Joaquin Phoenix—who's either an insufferably pretentious narcissist or an amazing actor, depending on your opinion of I'm Still Here—is considering a return to more straightforward, less controversial acting in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, playing the "mythic, ageless" mentor who instructs Benjamin Walker's Abe in the ways of vampire slaying. But Phoenix won't really be killing vampires—he'll just be totally faking it, like a big phony. Anyway, to say that a lot is riding on Phoenix's next career choice would be an understatement, but really, all anyone should care about is keeping this role from Anthony Hopkins.

Even if your idea of commitment is a simple ceremony with a religious officiant, you may want to devote time and attention to selecting the perfect engagement ring for your bride. For one thing, the engagement and wedding rings qualify as significant purchases for most couples. For another, you want to take time to select the best pieces of jewelry because you will wear them for the rest of your lives together.
The 4 c's
Created by the Gemological Institute of America, the 4c's are the basis of the universal assessment method for evaluating the quality of a diamond. The four C's represent the cut, color, clarity and carat weight of the diamond. Jewelers use these four characteristics of a diamond to determine its value and final cost.
Diamond Ring Settings
While the stone costs for as much as 95 percent of the ring's total cost, ring settings should not be ignored. The setting protects your pricey investment and holds the stone in place. The common styles below apply to any ring with gemstones in it, including diamond engagement rings.
- Claw or prong – This is the most popular setting with three to six prongs that raise and hold the stone up.
- Bezel – This setting has the stone flush with the metal. A band of metal also surrounds the stone to conceal the girdle and hide any imperfections.
- Cluster – Many stones are set in a circular fashion to create a large and impressive cluster of diamonds.
- Tension – A contemporary setting that makes the stone appear that it is floating, with no structural support underneath the ring.
Diamond Alternatives
Despite the song's popular refrain, diamonds are not every girl's best friend.
Although most American brides wear diamond rings, colored gems such as garnet, ruby, and sapphire are also popular. In fact, since ancient times, some cultures have prized these gems over colorless stones.
Most women chose alternative gems for their meaning and color. Rubies represent passion and love, while blue sapphires are a symbol of the heavens and fidelity. A colored gem is also a less expensive selection when compared to a colorless diamonds.
Cultured Diamonds
If you are looking for conflict-free diamonds — or are concerned about diamond mine conditions, there are suitable stone alternatives available.
In fact, many cultured or synthetic diamonds are test-tube versions of the real thing. Since 2007, these artificial diamonds are graded by the American Gemological Institute and have grown in their quality and acceptance.
These stones are grown in artificial conditions and the stone colors are available in yellow and white. These man-made gems may cost you anywhere from 19 to 90 percent less than a mined diamond.
Antique and Heirloom Rings
Recognizing the value and appeal of antique baubles, many jewelry stores also sell colored gems via their estate jewelry departments. Estate jewelry however, is not the same as antique jewelry which is at least 100 years old or more.
The surest and easiest to determine the difference between estate and antique jewelry is to view a colored gemstone certification for dates and authenticity information.
If you have a family heirloom that you would like updated, have the stone remounted at your local jeweler. You can give life to a beautiful piece of history that may have wasted away in your mother or grandmother's jewelry box.

We love lavender. We both grow it in our gardens, and we are lucky enough to live near Mountain Farm, a lavender, blueberry, and dairy goat farm. (One of Kathy's dreams is to have a lavender and goat farm, even though she doesn't really like the taste of goat goat cheese or goat's milk.)
Bonnie's daughters at the lavender farm a few years back.
Lavender is one of the most widely used essential oils because it is so versatile: it's calming and relaxing but also uplifting. Lavender played an important role in the start of "modern" essential oil use. In 1910, French chemist René Gattefossé was working in the laboratory of his family's cosmetics firm when he severely burned his hand and plunged it into the nearest liquid, which happened to be a vat of lavender oil. Impressed by how quickly his burn healed, he went on to experiment with lavender and other plant oils to treat injured soldiers during WWI.
Add lavender essential oil to sea salt or epsom salt for a relaxing bath.
Lavender is a great essential oil to carry along when you know you have a stressful day ahead. Many people find that the scent of lavender soothes headaches. (If lavender alone doesn't do the trick, try blending it with a drop of peppermint.) Place a few drops on a cotton ball or tissue near your pillow for a good night's sleep. Or add 5 or 6 drops of lavender to warm bathwater before bedtime for a relaxing soak. If you want a really luxurious bath, add the lavender oil to a cup of milk or to sea salt or epsom salt and then add it to your bath.
We also like to add put a couple of drops of lavender to on a cotton ball and place it in the vacuum cleaner bag. It scents the house nicely and counters that unpleasant smell of dog hair and dust that lingers in a used vacuum cleaner bag. You can also add about 10 drops of lavender to a cup of baking soda to make a nice powder to sprinkle on your rugs or your mattress. Leave it for about an hour and then vacuum it up.
We love hearing from you -- tell us how you use lavender around your house!

Wondering about using numbers.
Even Arabic numbers get out of hand and beyond comprehension; well beyond my comprehension, anyway. I pretty much under stand the number of miles from my place to town or the post office or even to Arizona or Pennsylvania. I can even grasp the distance to the moon and sun. You know, like the old joke goes: "It is closer to the moon than it is to Arizona 'cause I can see the moon from here but I can't see Arizona from here". The distance to the outer planets gets a little harder to grasp as is the distance to the nearest star. After that, it just becomes numbers, numbers without actual understanding of the distance. If you think that is far, think again. Light from the furthest edge of the expanding universe will never reach us unless the universe stops expanding and implodes. That my friends, is a scary thought. Well, as far as numbers go, I have taken up enough of your time. But, before you go, may I suggest that any of you with children or grandchildren in school read http://orangejeepdad.blogspot.com/ . Now, you all have a great day today, you hear?

The Winner's Circle: 5 Historic Wins at the Kentucky Derby
Apr 20, 2018
There's no denying that a lot of the attention the Kentucky Derby garners surrounds its pomp and circumstance. But cut through the big hats, mint juleps, seersucker suits and other assorted bits of pageantry, and you're left with one of the most heart-pumping events in all of racing – if not all of sports. They don't call it "The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports" for nothing.
Every year, the Kentucky Derby showcases the best of the best in horse racing, pitting them against each other a chance at glory – and possibly even enshrinement in the annals of sports history. The Derby's track records are filled with every kind of sports story imaginable: comebacks, upsets, blowouts – there's enough material there for more than a dozen Hollywood movies. Just ask Seabiscuit.
If you're thinking about buying 2018 Kentucky Derby tickets – and you really should, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience – brush up on Churchill Downs' long history first so you can properly appreciate the stakes of horse racing's main event.
To get you started, we've compiled the Kentucky Derby's top five historic races and victories. Let the countdown begin:
Donerail – 1913
You want an underdog? You want a Cinderella story? We give you Donerail.
Going into the 1913 Derby, Donerail was a long shot – at best – to win the race. As things got underway, it didn't seem like his odds improved any, either. But, as luck would have it, none of the other competitors could pull away from the pack. Multiple horses held the lead at various times during the race, with Donerail trailing just behind.
Finally, in the closing moments, Donerail nosed ahead, edging Ten Point by a mere half a length. At 90-1 odds, Donerail is the most unlikely member of the Winner's Circle in Derby history.
Seattle Slew -1977
Not to be outdone, Seattle Slew had an underdog, rags-to-riches story of his own. Famously purchased for a mere $17,500, Slew would go on to become only the 10th horse to win the Triple Crown. Not only that, but he is the only horse in racing history to do so while undefeated.
A 1-2 odds-on favorite to win the Kentucky Derby, Seattle Slew gave the crowd a little drama by falling behind early in the first mile only to find his groove and cruise ahead to victory by a margin of 1.75 lengths. Always keeping 'em on their toes, that Slew.
Count Fleet – 1943
If you like comeback stories, have we got one for you. Count Fleet's 1943 racing season was marred with injuries, the worst of which occurring at the Wood Memorial Stakes. Although Count Fleet won the race, he sliced the coronet band on his left hind hoof in the process, requiring part of the hoof to be removed.
To add further doubt to any prospects of a Triple Crown campaign, the racing industry faced considerable challenges at the height of the Second World War. Transportation and travel restrictions limited attendance at even the largest events, and promoters considered cancelling the Kentucky Derby outright.
Thanks to the efforts of Colonel Matt Winn, however, the Derby was allowed to move forward as a "street-car Derby," which could only be attended by in-state residents who took public transportation to the track.
Count Fleet made the most of the opportunity, jostling with multiple horses to gain an early lead in the race. He held a two-length lead going into the backstretch and successfully held off a late challenge by Blue Swords to ultimately win the race by three lengths.
After the Derby, Count Fleet would again need to overcome an injury in order to win the Preakness and Belmont Stakes and complete the Triple Crown.
Citation – 1948
Racehorses like Seabiscuit, Secretariat and Seattle Slew may be household names, but there's a strong argument to be made that the greatest competitor of them all is actually Citation. The stallion's 16-consecutive win streak at major stakes races set the record that would not be equaled for over 40 years.
"The Big Cy's" finest moment came in 1948, when he became the 8th Triple Crown winner in history. The 3-year-old Citation turned heads early on in the racing season, winning multiple races against more seasoned competition, including the previous "Horse of the Year" award recipient. However, tragedy struck when Citation's jockey, Al Snider, drowned in a fishing accident.
After a rocky start with new jockey Eddie Arcaro, losing the Chesapeake Trial Stakes, the duo quickly rebounded, winning the next two races heading into the Derby. Citation's Triple Crown campaign began with minimal drama, as he held a commanding lead at Churchill Downs, winning the race by 3.5 lengths.
Secretariat – 1973
Is Secretariat an obvious choice to hold our No. 1 slot? Yes, but there's a reason even non-racing fans know his name: He was a once-in-a-generation competitor and captured the hearts and minds of sports fans across America.
Secretariat's 1973 Derby victory is the stuff of legend. In front of a crowd of more than 134,000 people – at the time, the largest number of people to attend a racing event in U.S. history – Secretariat fell behind early. Way behind. Battling back from a last-place position, "Big Red" ran each quarter mile segment faster than the last.
According to spectators and sportswriters on the scene, the race was Angle Light's to lose going into the final turn. Then, magic happened, and Secretariat overtook him and grabbed the lead for good, becoming the first horse to win the Triple Crown in 25 years.
What's most remarkable about this come-from-behind victory is that Secretariat needed to set a track record to pull it off. To this day, his 1:59:24 mark stands as the best time in Kentucky Derby history.
And that's why he's No. 1.
Are there glaring omissions in this list? Perhaps. Where's American Pharoah? Or Barbaro or Spectacular Bid, for that matter? With 144 years of racing history to go through, not everything's going to make the cut.
But that's the beauty of the Derby. It's a singular event in American sports, stretching all the way back to 1875. It's witnessed the Great Depression, the Civil Rights movement, Prohibition and two world wars. No other sport, not even baseball, can hold a candle to the history and prestige of the Kentucky Derby.
It's not too late to be a part of history at this year's race. Be sure to get your 2018 Kentucky Derby tickets before time runs out.

MALICE RECONCILED; A NOTE ON MELVILLE'S BILLY BUDD CHARLES WEIR, }R. Then in the circuit calm of one vast coil, Its lashings charmed and malice reconciled, Frosted eyes there were that lifted altars; And silent answers crept across the stars. Hart Crane, "At Melville's Tomb." THE attitude of the critic toward the later work of Herman Melville has, during the past twenty years, undergone a happy change. There were always those, to be sure, who were fascinated by the perplexities of Pierre or The Confidence Man; but today it is not merely the attraction of esotericism which predisposes the general reader or the scholar to accept those books which follow Moby-Dick, if not as a perfecting and strengthening of Melville's craft, at least as an organic development of it. It is true that Melville's poetry remains almost unread and unappreciated , but the later prose has been at least tacitly accepted, and.no one today would maintain, as did an earlier generation, that it is the work of an unbalanced mind. But though the legend of Melville 's insanity has been pretty thoroughly exploded, in the main, it is still in terms of Moby-Dick and the vo]umes preceding it that Melville is discussed and evaluated. In part, the reasons for this placing of emphasis are not hard to understand. The passion for Freudian interpretation which sent the biographers of the twenties digging into Pierre has waned; and the even more ambiguous and difficult Confidence Man seems to-offer the critic a challenge that few have been bold enough to accept. At the same time, Melville has in general attracted only romantic natures, who inevitably :find in the somewhat confused brilliance of Moby-Dick the greatest expression of his genius. It is by no means atypical that one of the most promising students of Melville in· the last decade wound up by deserting him for Dostoevsky. The exceptions to these generalizations have been rare; it is not so much that they have spoken unheard as that they have hardly spoken. Dr. Yvor Winters, for example, who seems to me to have written as profoundly of Melville as any other critic with whose work I am acquainted, though 276 MALICE RECONCILED 277 perfectly aware of the importance of such a book as Billy Budd, is tantalizingly laconic in his discussion of it. Actually, Billy Bud_ci is well worth discussing. A final word after long silence, no matter what that word may be, assumes an oracular character. Billy Budd, however, is a culmination in more than a chronological sense: simple as it seems in essence and almost artless in form, ·as compared with the bravura quality of MobyDick , it completes the pattern of Melville's work, a pattern which is not to be understood without it. The details of its composition, between 1888 and 1891, its discovery, and its. publication in 1924 need not concern us here. Though generally spoken of as a novel, it is by far the shortest of Melville's major works. The reader's first impression is that of a synopsis or rough draft: the action is simple and rapid, and the characterization and description are accomplished with a restraint and a bareness that. surprises and generally disappoints anyone fresh from the luxuriance of Moby-Dick. Stripped to its bare bones, I the tale has the quality of a parable, which indeed it is. It has also, and this has not been so often remarked, the quality of a tragic action in the classic sense. Billy Budd, a simple, unsuspicious sailor, having been impressed to serve on board the British man-ofwar Indomitable during the Napoleonic Wars, incurs the hatred of Claggart, the ship's master-at-arms. Claggart's agents attempt to implicate Billy in a conspiracy to mutiny, and when his natural innocence enables him temporarily to avoid the trap, Claggart falsely accuses him of sedition. The charge is a particularly serious one: Vere, the captain, is expecting to be engaged in battle at any moment, and the memories of the mutinies at Spithead and the Nore are still fresh. Confronted with his accuser in Vere's cabin, Billy is unable...

During a 2016 interview on The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, the now Duchess of Sussex confirmed she was a strong Hillary Clinton supporter and was vocal about her dislike for then-presidential candidate Donald Trump.
"It's really the moment I go; we film Suits in Toronto and I might just stay in Canada," she said. "Yes, of course, Trump is divisive, think about female voters alone, right? I think it was in 2012 the Republican Party lost the female vote by 12 points; that is a huge number and with as misogynistic as Trump is, and so vocal about it, that is a huge chunk of it."
Trump's three-day visit to the UK will kick off with a welcome ceremony at Buckingham Palace as well as meetings with Prince Harry, Prince William, Prince Charles, Camilla Parker Bowles, Kate Middleton and Queen Elizabeth.
"I have met Charles before. I like Charles. I think that's very good," he said. "We will be talking. I can say we have among the cleanest climate in the world right now. Our air and water are doing very well. We hope other countries can do so well. You know, it is a big atmosphere and frankly if one country is going to be bad and other countries going to be good, the country that is good gets penalized. Which is unfair."
Trump will arrive in the UK on June 3.

St. Paul teachers will push to get a property tax increase on next year's ballot to make up for what they say is insufficient pre-K-12 funding from the state.
As the union opened contract negotiations Thursday with St. Paul Public Schools, teachers said the district needs more revenue to produce "racially equitable schools."
They're asking the district for help getting money out of private colleges, which don't pay property taxes, and from corporations that have benefited from government incentives and tax cuts.
And they want voters to authorize another tax levy, two years before the expiration of the one approved by referendum in 2012. That levy now accounts for about 8 percent of the district's $522 million general fund budget.
"We keep getting told that there is not enough money for our public schools, but the reality is our wealthy corporate neighbors in our city and our state have done very well," said Nick Faber, president of the St. Paul Federation of Teachers. "We believe that tax avoidance by the wealthiest Minnesotans is depriving our public schools of tens of millions of dollars."
The union says that since 2003, inflation-adjusted per-student funding has dropped by over $1,000. The Minnesota Department of Education, using the consumer price index, puts that figure at $595 per pupil.
Superintendent Joe Gothard hasn't taken a position on a tax increase but generally agrees with the union that school funding from the state has fallen short of what's needed.
In his last job, as superintendent of the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage district, Gothard paired a new strategic plan with a tax referendum. Gothard plans to deliver a strategic plan for St. Paul about this time next year.
"Whenever we decide to seek a referendum, we need to be able to make a strong case that we're spending money effectively and efficiently, that we're taking advantage of any currently existing revenue sources, and that we have a unified strategy for success," school board chairman Jon Schumacher said Friday.
The union said it presented 10 proposals Thursday for its next two-year contract. They include continued funding for small class sizes, teacher home visits and restorative practices; plus more nonteaching staff, such as school psychologists, nurses, social workers and counselors.
Board members have said publicly that the district cannot afford its current class size limits or significant salary increases for teachers.
St. Paul district teachers last year were paid $76,682 on average. That's more than any other district in the state and 29 percent higher than the statewide average salary of $59,365.
The union and district figure to butt heads on Q Comp, the state's alternative compensation program, which is built around performance pay for educators. It could generate $9 million a year from the state and local property owners, but the union has been unwilling to consider it.
Still, the union said its first negotiating session with the district was more amicable than in past years. In early 2016, they threatened to strike over school safety, and school board members joined negotiations to help reach a deal.
The contract talks are open to the public and continue Oct. 12. Board members are not actively participating at this point, Schumacher said.
School district officials declined to comment Friday but said they'll discuss their negotiating strategy with reporters on Tuesday.
