Which do you think is better at recovering
fine gold, the Gold Cube or Blue Bowl and why? I have owned and used
the Blue Bowl for several years now, and can really appreciate how much fine
gold it recovers. However, I don't like the fact you need to wash your
concentrates first or else the water gets really cloudy, which makes it very
hard to see what you are doing. This process can take a lot of time and
water to accomplish. Unfortunately, I have only used the Gold Cube once,
so I can't really voice a non-bias opinion other than to say it seemed really
easy to use and you don't need to prep your concentrates other than to classify
them. Of course you should do that with any recovery system you are
using. Cleaning up the Gold Cube seemed
a little awkward because of the individual stack size, but at the time I only
had one gold pan to put everything in, not very much room to do the cleanup,
and no running water. I had to use my
sniffer bottle and splash water out of the pan to clean up the individual
stacks. I also have a Desert Fox, which
I also haven't used very much. Now I am thinking about buying a Gold
Cube, so I would really appreciate hearing what fellow miners have to say
on the subject. I appreciate your input.
I've had the blue bowl, and after many hour of frustration I went to the CUBE. The engineering and process to use is just way more simple than the Blue Bowl..I went with the 3 stack, but have not seen anything go past the first tray yet. The "Banker" attachment will be my next investment to use stream side. 5 Stars for the Cube. I also have found that depending on the material your running you may or may not want to wet classify. I got into some really "clayee"and "rootie" material and found that even though I maybe didn't have too...That wet classifying and doing a pre-cleaning sure made life easier and kept my water in better condition for a longer period of time. Just my 2c. Good luck. JP
Hmm, the cube is great for what it does, they sluice now with the screens...But the blue bowl with the water level set properly is awesome. It gets Gold you can't even see until you blow it into a pile with your sucker bottle. And the price is $75 compared to the cube's $400?
Please click the link to see my set up running back in August. The CrissonGoldMine.com highbanker attachment is sitting to the left. I had already run the material through it and was superconcentrating the cons from that run, in the pic, just using the slick plate top and all 3 stacks (only need 1 or 2 carpet (recovery) stacks in my opinion).
Thanks for the reply.
As I recall, the instructions I got with the Blue Bowl stated that with 100 mesh screened material, only go to within 1/2 inch of the top of the Blue
Bowl. If the material is screened with 50 mesh, then go to within 1/4 inch of the top and if the material is screened with 30 mesh, then go all the
way to the top of the Blue Bowl.
However, if the 30 or 50 mesh screened material contains 100 mesh and finer gold, where does this gold go if you run the water level to the top of the Blue Bowl? Probably something I should look into, but being cautious, I have had a tendency to only go to the 1/2 inch mark. That's where I marked the sides of the Blue Bowl so I could 1) level the bowl and 2) make sure I knew where the 1/2 inch mark was without guessing.
Also, being cautious, I don't run all the black sand out, but leave some in, then pan the final bit. Some of the black sand I have seen here is powder/flour size.
I always use the gold cube 4 stack and then pan out by hand which takes way less time than using the blue bowl. HOWEVER if you know you have an abundance of fines running a couple blue bowls at one time will net you better recovery after using the gold cube. Both are good tools. I would like to see a triple sized blue bowl then we are talking something that can be used to process better.
I prefer the Gold Cube any day. I have used both and IMO there is no comparison. Not to mention the versatility of the gold cube, where the blue bowl is a one trick wonder.
There is no comparison between the two and as far as I am concerned they were designed for separate purposes. I owned a Blue Bowl until someone stole it out of the back of my pickup (Thank goodness). I also own a 4 stacker Gold Cube. The Blue Bowl is used to separate the gold from the black sand small blond sand once it is refined to that point, like after you run it on through the Gold Cube and screen it down. I use the Gold Cube to get my material down to the point that I could run it through the Blue Bowl if I still had it. I live in Colorado and the gold there is mostly fine and too small for the Blue Bowl. I was told by the manufacturer of the Blue Bowl that is does not get fine gold very well, and from my experience, it doesn't. There are several other superior methods of recovering fine gold. It does work good for larger gold flakes. What I use now is the Catch-It-Two water table. I take my material and run it through the Gold Cube first and then screen it down and spoon it on the Catch-It-Two water table. The Catch-It-Two water table is slow but you can recover gold so fine that you need a magnifying glass to see it.

The Wall Street Journal is running an article (subscription required) today observing the anemic recent returns of merger arbitrage funds. This is surprising, according to the article, because of the high number of deals tumbling in. Last year was the most prolific since 2000.
The article quotes Mario Gabelli, manager of the scintillatingly named "Gabelli ABC Fund" thus: "Investors should think about this as an enhanced money-market return." So much for an investment class that used to pull out 30+% annualized returns in the 1980s. Of course, that was back when Ivan Boesky and company could boost returns by getting long on a target with huge leverage before the market was aware a deal was in the works. I would love to see an analysis of the returns on an insider trading strategy.
So what keeps spreads (and therefore merger or risk arbitrage returns) so low?
One explanation is that we are seeing more "mergers of equals" and therefore the lack of price disparity and low spreads between such firms are more limited to begin with. Lower spreads, lower returns.
Another explanation is that the funds investing in merger arbitrage opportunities all have effectively the same criteria and therefore invest in the same deals leaving less of a spread. In other words, merger arbitrage is "oversubscribed."
A third explanation is that markets are getting more efficient. They "sense" a deal before it emerges and price up targets.
A subset of this third explanation is that there is a clever and well funded insider trading network at work within the market and they are squeezing returns out of the law-abiding risk arbitrage gang. Since this last option is the most conspiracy oriented it is also my favorite.
Of course, there is a long history of claiming that insider trading actually makes for more efficient markets. Interested readers might start with Stephen M. Bainbridge's Florida Law Review Article, "The Insider Trading Prohibition: A Legal and Economic Enigma." (True Gekkoists will want to ignore the fact that it was printed back in 1986).

The Requirement
Employee learning is crucial to an insurer like RSA, but the company was aware that its learning was not as effective as it wanted it to be. In particular, its Learning Management System (LMS) was not being used to its full potential for performance management and feedback on some of the training provided was that it was dull, repetitive and uninspiring.
Further, employee feedback that though they theoretically had time allocated for L&D, they were rarely able to use it due to time constraints and workload. Others commented that the busy office was too noisy to be conducive to effective learning.
Ember was invited to help RSA review its learning strategy and in particular answer an overarching question:
'What role and value does a digital learning capability have for RSA, what is the functional roadmap, and how do we better structure and prepare the service and sales organisation for this opportunity?'
"We were very impressed with Ember's expertise in helping us to understand and then define our steps towards a best in class training strategy… Our business results are driven by our brilliant, capable people. Ember helped us to define and implement what was needed in the modern digital age to deliver legendary service to our customers"
The Solution
We worked closely with RSA to gather feedback from staff and managers about the effectiveness of the current digital learning strategy. We used focus groups, interviews and questionnaires to build a picture and then presented a detailed report with a number of recommendations to:
- Enhance e-learning content with gamification and micro learning
- Develop a clear link between learning offerings and business outcomes
- Retain the LMS but rebrand it and improve the way it was promoted internally
- Introduce dedicated learning areas in the call centres so staff can learn away from their usual desk
- Actively strive to preserve personal learning time – building it into capacity planning
- Create role-specific learning pathways.
The Result
With a rebranded LMS, learner pathways, dedicated learning time/space and enhanced e-learning design capability, connected to the end-to-end learning lifecycle we developed, RSA has been able to produce learning that engages the learners. The LMS now provides meaningful reporting insight to management and demonstrates true ROI .

If you are a person who struggles with being comfortable in your own body, take a few minutes today and seek out all the pictures of yourself you can find. You may notice there is a serious lack of them or you may notice yourself getting sick seeing the person you have become. If you are me, you look at those pictures and ask yourself, am I seeing double? And if you are me, your answer was, yes, you are seeing double. Double the person I have ever wanted to become. Double chins that I never wanted to see on me. Double digit gains you never think you are capable of until it happens. The feeling of sadness will probably overcome you as you search into your photo trail. If you are me, it's more anger than sadness. Do you notice how unhappy you look? Do you notice that you quit taking care of yourself? The lack of makeup, trendy clothes, high heels, done up hair? Do you notice that when we aren't feeling good on the inside, these pictures are showing it on the outside? Or maybe if you are me, you don't see many pictures at all and the ones you do find, you are hiding behind your kids with serious amounts of make up plastered on. I look at those pictures and scream 'fake fake fake'. I wonder why we let ourselves get to that point. Wouldn't you think that once you seen a picture of yourself in an unkept state, you would want to get up and fix it? Instead, the photo trail grows bleak and filled with an unhappy person trying to live a happy life. Find yourself a picture of yourself at a weight you were comfortable with at a time you truly were happy in your skin and you will find a person smiling and laughing with washed hair and clear skin. Right there is your inspiration for moving forward. I don't care how far back you have to search or how long you got to work to find it, but for yourself and for your health, FIND IT! Keep that picture with you always and when you find yourself sliding away from the healthy life you know you should live, pull that picture out and remind yourself that you deserve to be that happy. You deserve to feel that beautiful. You deserve to feel desirable and accepted. I found hundreds of pictures of myself and I am arming myself with daily reminders of the person I am trying to find under all those unhealthy choices I have made. This week I caught a glimpse of her. You can be told a million times that you are beautiful and 'not fat' but no one can prepare you for the moment when you actually believe it for yourself. She hit me in the mirror right after a very heated 41 miles on my bike and she showed no mercy staring back at me and I realized that she and I are one person again. Together we are beautiful. Together we are going to conquer this body. Together we are going to make an appearance in life and it will show through our photo trail and I hope that one day my future will look back at these photos and sense a strong woman existing there. I want these photos and these memories to be a pillar of strength and love for the future.
And somewhere behind all that unhappiness, I know you want it too!
Go find yourself that photo and start inspiring yourself today.

Best Runecrafting Script?
drg96 posted a topic in DiscussionHi, I'm looking for a solid runecrafting script to do nature runes. I've used aMiner v2 and aAgility v2, and I was very pleased with those two. They're solid scripts with great anti-ban features. I'm hoping to find a similar script for runecrafting that has great anti-ban mechanics. Thanks

Cubs Outlast Angels at Fitch Park
Yasiel Balaguert doubled twice, singled twice, walked, drove-in two runs, and scored three more, Junior Lake stroked a double and an RBI single, walked, and scored two runs, Rony Rodriguez singled twice, doubled, knocked-in three runs, and scored another, and Xavier Batista belted an RBI triple and a single and scored a run, helping the Cubs defeat the Angels 10-8 in Cactus League Extended Spriung Training action this morning at Fitch Park Field #4 in Mesa, AZ.
RHP Trey Lang (Cubs 2012 6th round draft pick) got the start and had another rough outing, allowing six runs (all earned) on six hits (three singles, two doubles, and a triple), two walks, and an HBP, plus three wild pitches, in 4.1 IP (72 pitches). He did strike out five (all five swinging), but he was bouncing his breaking ball and had difficulty throwing his fastball for strikes.
In EXST Cubs roster news, catcher Neftali Rosario (Cubs 2011 6th round draft pick) has been moved up to Kane County. It's probably just a temporary thing, however, because Rosario was hitting just 091/167/136 in 11 EXST games (24 PA), and had missed some time with an ankle injury. Rosario was doubtful to even make the Boise roster, much less a permanent promotion to KC.
Here is the abridged box score from today's game (Cubs players only):
1. Kevin Encarnacion, LF: 1-5 (E-3, L-4, 4-3, 2B, P-6, R)
2. Junior Lake, CF: 2-4 (6-4-3 DP, K, 2B, 1B, BB, 2 R, RBI)
3. Yasiel Balaguert, RF: 4-4 (BB, 2B, 1B, 2B, 1B, 3 R, 2 RBI)
4. Xavier Batista, 1B: 2-5 (K, 1B, 3B, 1-3, K, R, 2 RBI)
5. Rony Rodriguez, DH: 3-5 (1B, 2B, 4-3, 1B, K, R, 3 RBI)
6. Jesse Hodges, 3B: 1-4 (3B, L-5, F-7, 4-6 FC, R, RBI)
7. Danny Lockhart, 2B: 0-3 (F-7, 6-3, 4-3, HBP)
8. Carlos Penalver, SS: 0-4 (K, F-7, 5-3, K)
9. Jose Morales, C: 0-2 (BB, 4-3, BB, 3-6-3 DP, R)
1. Trey Lang: 4.1 IP, 6 H, 6 R (6 ER), 2 BB, 5 K, 1 HBP, 3 WP, 72 pitches (42 strikes), 5/3 GO/FO
2. Orbandy Rodriguez: 1.2 P, 3 H, 1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 2 K, 27 pitches (22 strikes), 1/2 GO/FO
3. Carlos Martinez: 2.0 IP, 3 H, 1 R (1 ER), 1 BB, 2 K, 33 pitches (20 strikes), 1/2 GO/FO
4. Mike Hamann: 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K, 12 pitches (9 strikes), 1/0 GO/FO

I'm sure Bryant will have a perfectly reasonable career. I'd be more stoked about him if batted from the left side and was a good bet to stay at third base. But I think Gray and Appel will also have perfectly reasonable careers, with Gray having the most upside of the 3. And the Cubs could use some immediate help in the rotation of course. Plus, despite the fact that TheJedi are on a 5-year plan, by Year 5, they need to be contending for a playoff spot or I don't even think Ricketts will be that patient.
If the Cubs were playing the long game, I'd say go with Frazier or Meadows. But for the immediate needs, I'd definitely go Grey if he's available. 100 mph fastballs have a high rate of having major league careers. Although I do think Gray will need a few seasons in the minors to work on his control, while I believe Appel should be in the majors by 2014. I'd say even 2013, but they'll probably let his arm take a break.

Is Cubs 3rd draft pick Jordan Nwogu not going to sign? Most teams are done signing. Since the Cubs have the other 4 signed there's not a question of negotiations. I thought Little (using his viral video of 105 mph as leverage) or Moreno being a promising HS SP would be the tough ones.

I had the most delightful time making this project.
Maybe it was the paper I used?
All my paper products on this are from the new Authentique Paper line called Uncommon.
I have been chosen to be one of their designers, so I am practicing using their out of this world, yummiest, most beautiful papers!
Hmmmm, think I like them?? ..Yep, I do!!
But let's talk dies now..
I used so many Cheery Lynn Designs dies on this, I don't even know where to begin.
I had this chipboard frame, and covered it with paper and then used the following dies to embellish and frame things.
Ribbon Eyelet Border, Pennant Die, Pretty Petal, Exotic Butterflies Small, Small Angel Wing, Fanciful Flourish, Burble Embossing Plate and Ovals.
This frame is in 3 sections and I did each section differently.
Here you can see the Authentique Paper Unity itty bitty stamp set called Family is Forever.
I used the Ribbon Eyelet Border die to make that cute accordion flower, shown above.
Below is the other stamp from the Family is Forever set.
You can also see the shimmer of my Funky Film from Grafix Arts.
I also took another cut Ribbon Eyelet Border and cut it in half and used it as a frame.
If you look at the 1st panel below, you can see what I am talking about.
Here is a side view so you can see al the detail.
This was so much fun to see and look so elegant in person.
Like I said, I had so much fun with this project and it was because I had fabulous paper and the Best Dies in the world to work with.
I hope you enjoyed my project today, see you next week.
This has been Jeannie from The Polka Cabana with today's post.

In other words it means that you have a negative credit profile. Maybe you haven't worked for long enough or that you switch jobs too often (being employed for 2 months and then switching employment for even a higher paying job may play against your credit score). Your credit score is also affected if you don't have a credit card or if you don't have an open account with a store.
If you have been Blacklisted then you will not be able to obtain credit. This goes for a home loan, opening a clothing account or obtaining a cell phone contract.
Blacklisted and need a cell phone contract?
Being Blacklisted does not mean that you cannot obtain a cell phone contract; it just means that you will have to approach the correct service providers.
There are Service Providers who will structure a cell phone contract in such a way that the risk to them is lower than other Service Providers. You may not be able to get the latest smartphone on the market, but you will be connected to the world without having to pay expensive pay-as-you-go bills.
How can Phonefinder help?
Phonefinder tries to list as many Blacklist Service Providers as possible. We know that your phone is an absolute necessity for you and being Blacklisted should not stop you from being connected to friends, family and social networks. If you are not accepted by the Service Provider listing the deal you selected then we will pass your details onto a Blacklist Service Provider who will contact you with the best solution
How can I avoid being Blacklisted?
Pay your accounts on time. If you are unable to then it is very important to contact your debtor (bank, cell phone service provider, clothing store) and ask them to give you an extension for your repayment.
Open an account with a clothing store or shop. Build a positive credit profile by paying your bills on time.
How do I know if I am Blacklisted?
When applying for a cell phone contract you will be told by your Service provider, however consumers also have the right to one free credit report a year. So contact any of the credit bureaus that are registered with the NCR.
Phonefinder is South Africa's cell phone comparison website. Helping you find the best cellular solution. Saving you money

06 Jul There's two in there!
"There's only one in there isn't there?" joked my husband to our obstetrician on our very first pregnancy appointment.
"Yep, only one." The doctor replied.
"Hang on….."
Ha, ha, ha. Surely this is an obstetrician's practical joke?
The doctor continued to scan with a serious face. Scanner went up the belly, scanner went down the belly. I lay as still as a statue believing that the less I moved the less babies would appear on the screen.
"I'd say there's two in there."
My husband stood behind the obstetrician mouths expletives at me and my mind began to race…..
Two!!! Two!!!! How can I have two babies? This is ridiculous. Who has two babies?
Well, apparently I do.
No wonder I was busting out of my normal clothes at 12 weeks. There was a whole lot of busting and bursting going on for the next six months. The clothes were busting, the bladder was busting and I was bursting into tears on an almost daily basis.
Each trip to the doctor would incite fear. "They will most likely be premature." "They will need to go in special care. " I had no idea what special care meant but I was in tears for many a hormonal week imagining my tiny babies wrapped tightly in foil inside a plastic box. Yes, I envisioned babies wrapped in foil blankets to keep them warm. What? The nurses don't baste them after taking their temperatures?
Each fortnight I would visit the doctor and be measured and weighed. YES weighed! I was not a skinny mini to begin with but by the end of that pregnancy I had reached full walrus status. I didn't care what size I was though because I had cooked up two seriously healthy babies. So healthy in fact that my doctor suggested I use a balloon-like contraption to inflate my lady parts so as not to tear during the birth. It's true you stop worrying about who sees your bits and pieces after having a baby but I am a woman with standards and I can tell you inserting and inflating a balloon into my nether-lands was not on my to-do list. Case closed!
Finally at 38 weeks….and a couple of days. (But who was counting?) I delivered two beautiful identical twin girls by caesarean section. They were 7pd 9oz and 8pd 3oz. They were not premmie, they were not wrapped in foil and they were mine. I had carried close to 16 pound of baby in my belly. Whew…..what a woman!!
And then the fun began……life with twins. But that my friends is a story for another time……..

beautiful boundaries
image source
I was asked by my home congregation to lead five nights of confirmation, all centered on meeting God in creative journaling, free writing, art and imagination. It was the perfect invitation. I got super excited about it and 24 hours later called the youth director and said I couldn't commit.
The next day I was asked to lead one morning of a women's bible study at my current church. I was honored, got super excited, and in the end turned this invitation down too.
Around this same time I was asked to head up the decorations for a huge kids banquet at our church. I was thrilled at the thought. And then I said no.
Here's the thing. I rarely say no. I'm a pretty obedient Yes Girl. But before these invitations arrived, I had mapped out three large projects I wanted to tackle in the new year. Projects that are often put on the back burner, but require some time and energy and I want to see them through.
So I said no to three incredible invitations. Even writing each of them out made my heart sink a little. They were hard to turn down.
All of those invitations came in November and December but now it is in January that I am feeling the relief of not having over committed. I'm not sure I've ever known this sweet feeling before. I'm so grateful for boundaries!
So this is just a post to remind you, it's okay to say no. Even to good things. It's important to still listen for where God is calling you, but sometimes I think God is calling you to still waters. And clearing my life a bit with some foresighted no's in December has made for a really lovely January.

Team Mathews is off to a great start on the tournament trail for 2019, and this past weekend's results show that these truly are the glory days for a team that continues to find themselves at the top. Here's a closer look at the ASA Pro/Am and IBO results from this past weekend.
For the first time in history, two major competitive archery tournaments, the ASA Pro/Am and IBO Triple Crown, were held on the same weekend. This overlap forced Team Mathews to split up in order to compete at the coinciding tournaments. Despite being spread thin, Team Mathews claimed 15 of 21 podium spots in an action-packed weekend. It was a dominate performance all around with sweeps in the ASA Men's Known Pro, Women's Open Pro and both Pro Male and Pro Female classes in the first leg of the IBO Triple Crown.
In the ASA Pro/Am in Augusta, Georgia, Chris Perkins took top honors in the Men's Known Pro Division, while teammates Robert Householder and Jesse Broadwater took home second and third. Sharon Wallace claimed first in Women's Open Pro, followed by teammates Cara Kelly and Emily McCarthy in second and third. Jay Moon and Dan McCarthy also landed second and third in Men's Open Pro after the shoot down on Saturday. In the end, Mathews finished with 8 of 9 podiums across three Pro Divisions at the ASA Pro/Am.
Danny Evans lead the charge in the Pro Male Division at the IBO Triple Crown in Pipestem, West Virginia with teammates Levi Morgan and Joby Shaw following in second and third place. Erin McGladdery, Brandie Martin and Laura Chenault swept the Pro Female Division, and Duane Price finished third in the Pro Senior Division for a total of 7 out of 9 pro division podiums.
"Considering we had to split the team up, it was an impressive victory all around," stated Mathews Pro Staff Manager Derek Phillips. "I'm extremely proud of all our shooters and their dominant performance."

A couple of unique things about Jay. First, his demo reel shows a great selection of voice options to chose from... but none of them were exactly what we were looking for. However, when we told him what we wanted he was able to take our abstract ideas (about being educational, sincere, conversation etc) and transform those directions into EXACTLY what we had in mind.
So if you're thinking about hiring him... tell him what you want... give him a sample to read... I'm sure he can deliver what you want. We're very VERY impressed. Will use Jay's services many more times in the future. Secondly, he delivered our project within a day and made adjustments within the hour. Highly highly recommend."

It was once in a lifetime…
Video at the bottom for those in a rush 🙂
So the time has come that I can finally share what I got up to in San Francisco at the end of August, this was a once in a lifetime trip and so much went on that this is a bit of a long one but if you're interested stick with it to the end as I think there's a lesson in here for all of us…
It all started with replying to a tweet so never underestimate the opportunities hidden away in social media! I got invited to a filmed casting in London and it probably took no more than 30 minutes. I left honestly thinking that of all the hundreds that apply there was no way they'd pick some "normal" guy doing silly voices.
Over the coming weeks it would turn out that I was wrong and that what I was in store for was absolutely in the most genuine sense going to be a once in a lifetime thing. The news trickled in slowly that the director was interested in my story but nothing was definite and that was probably the case for a couple of weeks until finally it was confirmed, they wanted me and I'd be flying out to San Francisco in a few weeks.
Everything was taken care of for me, flights, transfers, a layover in LA and hotels all booked and organised, all I had to do was turn up.
Day 1: Travel
Not a lot to mention here other than this production company knew how to do things in style! I felt like I was a movie star, I was booked in First Class with Air New Zealand and I can honestly say it was the nicest travelling experience I've ever had! I arrived in LA around 21:00 with a limo waiting to take me to the hotel for a couple of hours sleep before more limo's and a short flight with Virgin America (also First Class) up to San Francisco.
That afternoon I had my first meeting with one of the casting agents out in the states, she came to the hotel and we went over some basics such as call times for the next day and a rough schedule. I was staying on Fisherman's Wharf which is the tourist spot in San Francisco so after the meeting I went for a walk, grabbed a bike and cycled the 4 miles to the Golden Gate Bridge and back (well, got to get rid of jet lag somehow!) Bit of room service and an early night's sleep ready for fun in the morning!
Day 2: Filming
So I was picked up in the morning and driven out to Treasure Island along with a guy from Germany who was also being filmed. 12 people were being filmed and I was in the last batch of 6, each of us had our own story to tell. Bernhard (from Germany) was a highly qualified Urologist with dreams of owning and cooking in a restaurant.
Once on Treasure Island we were kitted out by wardrobe and makeup and mic'd up by the sound guys then waited in the car until it was our turn for filming. Suffice it to say I was quite nervous, I'd never been on camera before and although I've done a lot of stage work there was something more intimidating about being filmed.
Soon it was my turn, I walked over to a car park by the bay and saw a small crew of around 6 people, this was the secondary unit I was told, the main crew were doing more filming in the city. Filming started nice and simply with me just being asked about driving, what I thought of driving, what it meant to me, what I drove at home those sorts of things. Unbeknownst me, almost silently someone was pulling up in a car behind me. I was told to turn around and was faced with a brand new, prototype, 2015 Ford Mustang!
I have to say first and foremost, it was gorgeous! The Mustang has always been a guilty pleasure of mine and I'd actually rented an older one for my LA trip earlier this year but this one was something else! Out of the car came a guy from Ford who literally knew everything there was to know about the car. I was asked what I thought of it, how it compared to previous models, how it made me feel etc. Then I was given the pleasure of getting in, starting the engine and giving it a good old rev, man that sounded nice!
Some more interviewing in the car and then it was off to location number 2!
This was a much bigger affair as we were now with the main unit, we got taken to a motorhome where hair and makeup were re-touched and again some more waiting for our turn to be filmed. Here in the motorhome I also go to meet another of the "6". It was a great guy called Lonnie Council, a comedian from Los Angeles who had dreams of hitting the big time with his comedic material. Lonnie and I hit it off immediately and it kicked off 3 days of some of the funniest conversations I've ever had, though none of which are probably suitable for public consumption!
When it was my turn I was taken over the road into what could be described as a huge warehouse, it was entirely dark apart from some light emanating from a side room and one little corner which was set up with flood lights and the film crew. At this point the nerves really kicked in but I sucked it up because ultimately this was crazy fun! I very briefly got to meet the director before sitting down in a chair, facing the camera with just a plain back drop behind me. The camera was set up in such a way that even though I was staring into a camera I could see the directors' face, very clever stuff!
We then started the interview which covered my dreams as a voiceover, why I'd pursued it, what I wanted out of it, what the difficulties were and what it meant to me. I won't lie that I got choked up saying it all, I wear my heart on my sleeve most of the time and have no issues getting passionate in front of people when it's about my dream. They, of course, also had me do some voices just for good measure!
Once the interview was done, that was it for the day! Back to the hotel for some chill out time, I shot out into the wharf to grab some food but then it was back to the hotel to relax before another packed day of filming tomorrow…
Day 3: Things get awesome!
So day 3 started a little later than the others so I treated myself to a true American delicacy for breakfast, iHOP! I have to admit, it was pretty damn good! Feeling stuffed I walked back to my hotel to the awaiting car and headed off to filming.
This time everything was very different, I arrived at a large car park with what I would guess to be around 60 crew working, it was an absolute hive of activity! I could see around 4 of the Mustangs laid out and mine being worked on furiously. I was ushered into the motorhome for hair and makeup and then sent out to sit in the car while everything was setup. Now things were really turning into a pressure cooker, sitting in the car I was watching around 8 guys work on getting lights fixed to the hood of the car, the lighting guy was sat in the passenger seat next to me configuring up the interior lighting (I later found out he is one of the best known lighting guys in Hollywood, working on all the films and TV we know and love). I got a real feeling here of just what it takes to film things to a high standard, everything was under such time pressure and we had to get these shots before lunch, everyone was an utter professional diligently doing their job with little old me sat in the middle of it all! I definitely felt the pressure of making sure I delivered the goods so as to not do a disservice to all the amazing people that were working so hard to get it done.
I was told that plan was for me to drive around whilst being interviewed, I'd have to follow a "pace car" in front of me and just do exactly what he did. When everything was ready a cameraman jumped into the passenger seat, the director (Alex Gibney) jumped in the back and a sound man was situated in the boot (yes the boot!).
I have to admit I was REALLY feeling the pressure here, as I say I didn't want to let people down, but we were all set and rolled out onto the roads of San Francisco.
So the drive was just like the previous day, I was interviewed by the director about my dreams again, what they meant to me, what kicked off the start of my journey etc. They even had me create a voice for the car right there on the spot (FYI, I created a cowboy character, it's a Mustang after all!).
This was when things took a turn for the truly amazing / bizarre / mind-blowing / life changing.
The director said "I'd imagine getting the right contacts must be a difficult part of making it in voiceover, so what if I told you that we've arranged for you to meet with Tippett Studios in Burkley and audition for their latest project…….this afternoon"
I was utterly gobsmacked, you can see that in the video but I did not know what to say or do. So many thoughts rushed into my head all at once, was I ready, would I nail it, what could this lead to, what an amazing opportunity this was. Worst of all I'm still driving at this point so trying to do my best not to plough into the car in front of me!
For those who don't know, Tippett Studios are an Academy Award and BAFTA award winning effects studio responsible for bringing some of the most iconic characters and creatures of the 21st century to life having worked on films such as Star Wars, The Matrix, Jurassic Park, Starship Troopers and plenty more!
The next few hours flew by in an utter haze of adrenalin and nerves, we finished up driving and headed straight over to the studios. With very little time to prepare, before I knew it I was at the studios and being called in for filming. Bear in mind that if this wasn't pressure filled enough all of this is being filmed. All I knew was that there was a few characters that they were going to have me read for, a fairy, a gnome, a zombie, a penguin and an alien, that was it.
When "Action" was called I walked into a room that can be best described as a small theatre, it was essentially a screening room with a few rows of seats and a projection screen at one end. Sat in the middle of the room was Corey Rosen from Tippet Studios. I walked up, said my hellos and sat down, we had a quick chat about my dreams, what I'd done so far and the project they were currently working on and before I knew it, we were off! Corey handed me a few pages of dialogue for the characters and set me up on the mic.
Up on the screen they played short animations of the characters in a loop and I had to create the voices and characterisations for them right there and then in a directed session with Corey. I can only describe this as the most intense experience of my life, everything happening so quickly, being somewhere so prestigious, having a camera 6 inches from my face and having to try and deliver the best acting performance I can on the spot.
Even writing about it now is giving me goose bumps, it was single-handedly the most terrifying yet rewarding thing I have ever done. If you ever needed a test to find out if you can take the pressure of performing this was it (see the last section for the life lessons available from this!)
Thankfully I think I did myself justice, every direction Corey gave I could respond to, every accent he asked for was in my VO toolbox and once I blew off the nerves we were just having good old fashioned fun!
It felt like it was over almost as soon as it started but after we finished up with all the characters it was back to the waiting area to calm down before eating a classic American hotdog and heading back in for a "post surprise" interview.
After it all I was totally exhausted, all the adrenalin had worn off and I was just drained. I went back to the hotel and crashed. The next day would be an early start and even more surreal experiences were in store!
Day 4: Ok this is just silly now
So an early pick up from the hotel to head off to the final day of filming and what an experience it was going to be. I'd just about recovered from the previous day and an amazing day of driving was ahead of me! We were driven to downtown San Francisco in amongst all the skyscrapers to find closed off roads, motorhomes everywhere and Mustangs lined up down the street waiting for us. There were around 10 police officers receiving a briefing from the film crew, a Porsche being unloaded from a truck with a huge crane arm camera mounted on it and a full chef service cooking us custom omelettes…..on the sidewalk!
It transpired that today we would be driving our Mustang's, on closed San Franciscan streets, with a police escort!
This was one of the most fun mornings I have ever had, the group of the 6 of us were all finally together for the first time and it gave me a great chance to find out about the amazing journeys each of us had been on and to talk to other people with dreams and passions as real and as intense as my own.
Driving on closed streets, in a prototype car, being followed by camera's, with the public taking pictures and with a police escort is not an experience I am either likely to do ever again or forget very quickly.
Once we were all filmed on our runs through the streets it was all over, we headed off for a lunch and the filming was finished. We all headed back to our hotels to relax and take stock of the last few days before heading out on the town that night for a celebration; cast and crew together.
I then got treated to a locals night out in San Francisco as some of the crew were local so knew all the best bars and places to go. I found myself at the entrance to my hotel at 02:30am smoking a cigar with our group and reflecting on what had been the craziest few days of my life.
The aftermath:
So how on earth do I sum all of this up and find the meaning of it all?
This trip taught me many, many things, the first of which is that when people follow their passions they are truly alive. Every person I met on either the cast or crew had a passion and a dream and you could see it in the way they acted, everyone was happy, everyone was having fun, everyone was alive.
It taught me that no matter what people's religions, sexuality, political affiliation or place of birth what unites us all is our humanity and our desire to make the most of the time we have on this planet. Our group was so wonderfully diverse, we were black and white, we were straight and gay, we were male and female, we were Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Atheist, we were from Europe, America, the Middle East and Asia but above all we were all human and our singular common desire of following our dreams transcended any petty differences we so often put up as barriers to others. I consider all of those people my family now, we shared something truly and utterly unique and no-one else on the planet can understand that other than them. I love them all! So to Jamie, Liz, Elizabeth, Marie, Bernhard, Bassel, Lonnie, Jennifer and Ray, thank you and I miss you!
Finally this trip taught me one thing above all else and I found myself saying this spontaneously during filming…
"Whatever you want to be, you already are. All you need to do, is do"
So what does that actually mean? Well it means that no matter what you want to do with your life you already have within yourself, you already have the desire and passion to make it so and you have all the tools you need (even if that tool is just being able to learn the skills you don't have). It taught me that when you truly follow your passion and give yourself over to it, fully, with everything you have, you cannot be stopped. If I can fly to the other side of the planet, have an audition dropped on me at a moment's notice and be filmed throughout the whole thing then I have no reason to fear anything any more.
Follow your dreams folks!


text: Loot boxes have become one of the most infamous additions to video games, using chance to encourage gamers to purchase more of them using real-world money. After the release of Star Wars Battlefront 2 governments have become more aware of the gambling practice and now OpenCritic is labeling games with loot boxes Announced through a press release "The OpenCritic team believes that loot boxes are a net-negative for the video game industry. Loot boxes prey on human's generally poor ability to accurately understand and internalize probabilities, especially at the extremes," OpenCritic said in a statement to accompany today's action. "It's our mission to help gamers make informed decisions when considering a purchase or download. We feel that informing consumers about the presence of loot boxes is a key part of our mission." Currently, titles such as Overwatch, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, FIFA 19, and NBA 2K19 has this label but it'll come to other games that include the system. Instead, OpenCritic listed the following parameters that they have adhered to when assigning designations to games on its website. This means that roguelike games will not be subject to the label. -Unknown, Random Rewards. Users do not know what item they'll receive prior to purchase. Instead, users are purchasing a chance to receive one item from a set of items.-Monetized. Users are able to purchase the roll with real money, either directly or through an intermediary currency.-Encouraged Use. Users are encouraged to acquire and consume the loot box during the course of normal gameplay or game systems. This will likely be another nail in the coffin for this unpopular feature. As gamers are mostly united on eliminating loot boxes from games.

It's not even mid-January, and many Braves faithful feel tested by the team's lack of activity.
Yes, the Braves made a splash by signing former MVP Josh Donaldson for over $20 million. Yes, they received applause for bringing native son Brian McCann home. But they haven't registered on the radar since. That matters in spectator perception, right or wrong.
They're trying; they just don't want to succumb to what's proved to be a rich market. We saw Andrew McCutchen go well over his projected earnings (the Braves say they weren't surprised at the numbers, however) and several relievers have been handsomely compensated. We saw salary-motivated deals between the Mariners and Mets, Dodgers and Reds. We saw the Cardinals and Yankees cash in prospects to keep pace. We await Bryce Harper and Manny Machado, both of whom could end up in the NL East.
Meanwhile, the Braves scour for value after improving their lineup and addressing a glaring catching need. We can (and most will) debate the amount of money the Braves have available. We can debate which prospects to trade and for whom. We can debate what qualifies as great value.
What we can't debate is this team needs another outfielder. Desperately.
Ronald Acuna and Ender Inciarte are a strong pairing. Acuna will enter the season an MVP candidate, while Inciarte's defense is annually rewarded in Gold Glove voting. The third spot – filled by first-time All-Star Nick Markakis a year ago – is worthy of concern. Even if the Braves fail to substantially upgrade their rotation or bullpen, they must alter the outfield status quo.
The incumbent is Adam Duvall, who hit .132 with a .344 OPS - supplemented with 17 strikeouts and no RBIs - in 53 at-bats following a deadline trade to the Braves. Duvall is an acclaimed defender with a track record of power, so it's not as though he's an unknown commodity despite his late struggles. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic recently suggested the Braves could in fact bank on Duvall if the market doesn't turn their way, or if their resources are invested elsewhere.
That would be a failure. This isn't to criticize Duvall, who was put in a difficult situation with inconsistent playing time yet remained a consummate professional. But the Braves have constantly declared outfield a priority. General manager Alex Anthopoulos said he expected to have another option in the fold entering spring. Duvall's past is nice, but what he showed in Atlanta doesn't give anyone confidence he can handle a regular starting job.
I don't have the easy answer. Several players they sought have signed elsewhere, or the price tag remains exorbitant. Take Detroit's Nick Castellanos as a speculative example. The Los Angeles Times reported the Tigers requested top outfield prospect Alex Verdugo or top catching prospect Keibert Ruiz from the Dodgers. You can hypothesize what would be an equal request of the Braves.
When the dust settles, a reunion with Markakis would be acceptable. Some may moan, but Markakis is reliable and beloved in the clubhouse (and by pretty much everyone in the organization). His depreciating numbers were discouraging, and he's obviously not the team's first choice, but it's a safer call.
Anthopoulos has pulled almost all the right strings thus far. His franchise is set up for contention today, tomorrow and for the next five to seven years. It's commendable how he's avoided win-now temptations. Now he might need a shrewd move in the outfield that isn't as simple as throwing money or prospects at the issue.
On that note, I leave you with a quote from Anthopoulos during the GM meetings in California. He isn't being negligent. He knows the organization has to establish success before continuing it.
"The reason we have all these prospects is to win," he said. "And sometimes when winning is right in front of you, it's easy to lose sight of that. We talk about sustained winning, sustained success. Sometimes you need to have success first. We focus so much on the sustainable side that we never get to the success. I do think, my opinion, you have to get to the success part first."

Commercial & Private Event Furniture Hire, Chair Hire, Catering Equipment Hire, Cutlery, Glassware & Event Crockery Hire UK
January 9, 2015
Many congratulations to those directors, producers and actors who have this morning been nominated for the forthcoming BAFTA awards. This glitzy awards ceremony will take place on 8th February at the historic Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, London.
Award ceremonies are perfect examples of events for furniture hire. Normally held in large venues, such large scale events often require furniture hire such as tables hire and chair hire at the very least. They also normally involve some sort of catering and so the complete range of front of house table settings such as cutlery, crockery and glassware are needed as well as all the equipment for catering hire behind the scenes to ensure that food preparation and service is carried out efficiently and effectively.
And who can forget one of the most important products to hire at such events? These red carpet, celebrity events always need chrome posts and ropes hire to ensure that the VIP look is achieved, giving the event a feeling of glitz and glamour, as you would rightly expect when the stars from the world of showbiz convene in one location.
Look out for the BAFTA awards ceremony, it promises to be a stunning occasion!
