Fiji crowned champions in London
Fiji eased past Australia 43-7 to win the HSBC London Sevens and take over from USA at the top of the series standings with one round to play.
Fiji are the new leaders of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series and will take a two-point lead over USA to the final event in Paris.
It all came down to the final match at Twickenham after the Americans sealed third place at the #London7s, with Fiji knowing defeat would leave their rivals still at the summit with one round to go. If there were any nerves, they certainly were not apparent in the Cup final as Fiji romped to a 43-7 success.
Vilimoni Botitu set Fiji off to a flyer and a steal from the restart ended with Aminiasi Tuimaba taking two Australians over the line with him. Australia simply had no answer to Fiji's passing with sublime offloading paving the way for Tuimaba to complete his hat-trick before the break. Joe Pincus gave Australia brief hope but a line-out error enabled Josua Vakurunabili to pile over and restart the procession. Alasio Naduva flew over in the corner then powered through for Fiji's seventh try of a spectacular finale.
Fiji head coach Gareth Baber said: "Obviously we found it tough in the first four or five minutes when Australia put something in – we knew they're a good side and a tough side to play against – so we knew that we needed to get some scores on the board, and we did it with some style."
HSBC Player of the Final Meli Derenalagi added: "We had lots of work-ons from day one so we tried to improve on day two and our main focus was to come and win. All the supporters from around the world uplift us and motivate us to come and give our best."
Australia's day began with a thrilling success against South Africa in a quarter-final that spawned five first-half tries. Henry Hutchison and Ben O'Donnell struck after the interval to see the Australians home 29-22. Mick McGrath's two early tries threatened a huge upset for Ireland against Fiji in their last-eight meeting but 28 unanswered points tipped the scales. The Irish refused to lie down, though, as Jordan Conroy and Ian Fitzpatrick brought them back into contention. Billy Dardis' trip to the sin-bin proved pivotal - Asaeli Tuivuaka driving down the line to ensure Fiji progressed.
In the semi-finals, Lachie Anderson set the tone for Australia by touching down after eight seconds but France hit back as Samuel Alerte produced an unbelievable pass out the back of the hand and Stephan Parez took it in. Australia responded by going to another level. Hutchison and Simon Kennewell scampered in before Maurice Longbottom scored for the fifth game in a row. France threatened a great escape but Lewis Holland's kick through was gathered by Josh Coward and Tim Walsh's men prevailed.
Fiji against USA in the semi-finals promised to be a classic and it certainly delivered. Perry Baker popped up for Martin Iosefo to dot down but Fiji quelled the early storm and Tuimaba wheeled away to edge them ahead. Derenalagi somehow managed to ground the ball while being shoved towards touch but Kevon Williams weaved his way through to bring the States back within two with 90 seconds left. Fiji soaked it up, though, and as USA looked for the steal Vakurunabili was in space to end it.
Fiji move onto 164 points with USA two back. New Zealand sit third with 143 and South Africa are fourth with 131. USA, Fiji and New Zealand sealed qualification for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games on day one and South Africa have all but joined them, needing simply to take the field in Paris to confirm their place.
With every point potentially vital heading to Paris, USA secured third place with a dominant display against France. Folau Niua burrowed past three France players to set them on their way but Danny Barrett stole the show in the first half, bulldozing his way through twice to make it 19-0 at the break. Maceo Brown and Steve Tomasin joined the party to set Mike Friday's men up nicely for the Paris showdown for the title with a 31-14 stroll.
France had never beaten New Zealand in back-to-back matches but they sensationally broke that duck in the quarter-finals despite being 14-0 down at the break. Stephen Parez and Pierre Gilles Lakafia brought them within touching distance but they remained two points down heading into the final play. Terry Bouhraoua burst through and, as he looked to play the killer pass, Joe Webber swiped it away to concede a penalty try - cue ecstacy in the French ranks! Baker helped himself to two tries as USA eased past Canada 29-14 in their quarter-final.
Terry Kennedy gave Ireland an early lead but it was all New Zealand thereafter as the All Blacks 7s celebrated their qualification for the Tokyo Olympics with a 35-14 win. Tone Ng Shiu and Joe Ravouvou both touched down in either half and Regan Ware iced the cake late on.
Muller du Plessis struck twice in the first half as South Africa reminded everyone of their day one form during their fifth-placed semi-final with New Zealand. But, in a match of five lead changes, it was the All Blacks 7s who squeezed through with Tim Mikkelson clinging on to the final offload of the game. Canada were 14-7 ahead of Ireland at half-time in their semi-final meeting but were blown away after half-time with Bryan Mollen scoring one and setting up another, and Kennedy running in two tries.
It was first blood to Samoa in the final via David Afamasaga but Scotland seized their chance with Alamanda Motuga in the sin-bin through Max McFarland. The teams traded four more tries with Joe Perez and Nyle Godsmark swapping first before Elisapeta Alofipo eased between the posts and Robbie Fergusson tip-toed in. Afamasaga nipped through a tired defence in the dying seconds to seal Samoa's success.
Luciano Gonzalez had kicked off day two with a hat-trick in Argentina's 28-19 win against Spain and Samoa joined them in the last four when Perez struck in extra time against six-man England. Wales ground out a 17-0 victory against relegation-threatened Japan while Jamie Farndale mustered two tries as Scotland saw off Kenya 29-21.
Samoa versus Argentina was a semi-final punctuated by penalties; tries from John Vaili and Alofipo proved sufficient to nudge the former into the decider. Scotland were majestic in their last-four assignment, Farndale becoming their fourth player ever to reach 100 tries on the series with the final act of a 33-7 cruise.
England defeated Spain in the 13th-place semi-final while Japan scored a crucial 26-17 victory over relegation rivals Kenya. The Japanese carried that momentum on against the hosts, beating them for the first time in history by a convincing 29-14.
Those results leave Japan (25) just two points adrift of Kenya heading to Paris while Wales (30) are far from safe as well.

Second ancient treasure hoard found
UK - A second cache of ancient treasure has been earthed in a Jersey field – just months after the largest hoard of Celtic coins ever found was discovered in Grouville.
Metal detectorists found the 3,000-year-old Bronze Age hoard this week lying 30 cm down in a secret location.
The items – which include several bronze axe heads – were discovered in a clay pot about the size of a football.
Conservator at Jersey Heritage Nail Mahrer, who was present at the dig and will be working on the hoard, said that it was another very exciting find. 'The metal detectorist pulled two axe heads out of the top of the pot and saw more inside,' he said. 'The pot measures around 30 cm across and was about 30 cm below the surface.'
Mr Mahrer added: 'We are not quite sure why they were buried or why the hoard was buried where it was. We found other material with it, such as broken pots. 'Bronze axes were high-value items and this amount of bronze would have been very valuable.'
It is not the first Bronze Age hoard found in Jersey, but Mr Mahrer said that it is the first time that such treasure has come out of the ground in a pot. Mr Mahrer now plans to X-ray the pot to discover what else might be inside. 'It is very exciting,' he said. 'To have two hoards in one year is just amazing.'
The hoard of an estimated 70,000 Celtic coins, which includes items of gold and silver jewelry dating from around 50 BC, was found by metal detectorists Reg Mead and Richard Miles in June.
Since they were removed from the ground, Mr Mahrer has spent hours cleaning the mass of precious metal which attracted thousands of visitors to the Museum when it went on display for three days last month.

Julie Hull is not only a talented triathlete and gymnast who likes to do cartwheels and flips at the end of long races, she is also a very attractive woman.
Except for her right hand, which is actually kinda gruesome.
She went over the bars at Life Time Fitness Elite this weekend in a humanitarian effort to not crash into a totally in-the-way spectator. Her wrist was broken in two places and she also has the attendant livid rashes. Adrenaline was her only analgesic when she postponed her trip to the med tent and went on to finish the race.
Julie is not only fit, she is immensely healthy. She takes great care of herself, uses organic moisturizers and stuff like that, and doesn't eat too much cheese or too many Red Vines. (Don't you love Red Vines?). Her injuries will heal..

Between bites of a tuna sandwich, Bella turned to me today and asked, 'what colour skin will my baby brother have?'
I was immediately interested for two reasons: First, Bella doesn't have a baby brother. But she's been praying for one since Joy was a month old, and she has great faith. We'll see what this year brings. Second, I was struck by the unbiased innocence that prompted the question.
A few weeks ago we were away somewhere and a friend observed that we are so politically correct in our culture, or so afraid of appearing otherwise, that we almost never describe someone by their size or pigmentation. There was a whole group of us there, and someone was trying to describe someone they'd been speaking with. After observing them stumbling through around for a minute, my friend asked, 'you mean the big black guy?' There was a sigh of relief and the awkwardness left. He wasn't commenting on race, simply stating the obvious – and there was only one man in our group fitting that description.
Our family have spent the past week with large groups of people. I didn't notice that these crowds were a melting pot of colour and texture – but Bella did. I am always intrigued at the way children see our world through fresh eyes and notice great details we miss. She is being formed in a family with (I hope) little to no bias and discrimination. She sees people, in their uniqueness.
I paused for a moment when I answered Bella today. I explained that usually a baby will have the same colouring as one or both parents. So a baby brother will probably be fair and blond, like the rest of our family. But not necessarily, he might have brown hair, or black, or darker skin. She seemed pleased with that answer.
Yesterday Joy asked for a glass of water and when I put the yellow lid on her cup she shook her head, said no, and pointed to the purple lid. When I switched them she smiled and drank contentedly. Fourteen months old and already showing a preference of colour.
Purple is Bella's favourite colour too – I foresee fireworks.

The Stranded Whale
Jane Yolen & Melanie Cataldo
Candlewick, 2015 (2015)
Reviewed by Bob Walch
hen Sally and her brothers discover a large whale beached on the shore, they run for help and are instrumental in launching a community effort to save the poor creature.
ut with the tide receding and the enormous size of the stranded whale, it is a futile effort and the children must accept the fact that their well meaning actions are all in vain.
lthough they receive medals from the Coast Guard for effort, the children, and Sally in particular, aren't very proud of the recognition.
So, the whale died and we were heroes. Yet somehow I was still mad. I put my medal in the drawer and never took it out again,
' she explained.
ost books of this nature sugar coat the situation and the story ends on a happy note with the animal set free or returned to its natural habitat. Living here on the shores of Monterey Bay, I know otherwise. In other words, there are not always happy outcomes when humans intervene to help animals in distress.
ane Yolen does an excellent job in pointing this out in a manner that is both sensitive and realistic. This book will help the young reader accept this fact.

In our view, investors should position themselves for a rising interest rate environment in 2017. Developed market (DM) economies will be leading growth in 2017, taking over from emerging markets (EM) which have previously supported global growth rates. The key to the DM's recovery will be how the US markets react once Trump is inaugurated early in the new year. The US could very well be in the early stages of an economic recovery. We expect capital expenditure and productivity will propel the US economy and Europe is likely to continue to recover, albeit at a slow pace.
Currently, we have a bias towards financials and energy stocks in the WAM Leaders investment portfolio. We believe banks should perform well in 2017 given the regulatory framework is now likely to be less restrictive than previously expected. Australian banks should be able to pass through funding cost increases to customers as we have witnessed in December already. The bad debts are likely to remain static, and we expect that the banks will continue to reduce their costs.
The insurance sector should perform well as interest rates move up, given the sector has seen continued headwinds from low rates for over a decade. As the world's excess cash reduces and the cost of borrowing increases, premium rates will be pushed up as reinsurance rates rise. Higher investment income is an obvious tailwind for insurers, and in our view, this will be a multi-year trend. A lot of insurance companies have excess capital requirements, so there is potential for capital management initiatives.
Three risks to watch
China – The growth rate of China will be something to watch after witnessing the biggest stimulus injected into an economy this year. We expect a slowdown in credit growth as the People's Bank of China withdraws stimulus and implements tightening measures. Chinese foreign exchange reserves will also be on our radar as US dollar liquidity is withdrawn and capital outflows rise. The impact of a slowdown in growth in China, as well as lower property prices, will be felt by Australian resource companies, in particular, the bulk commodity producers such as BHP, RIO Tinto and FMG.
Europe populism to be tested – Events arising from the continuation of populism and anti-EU sentiment in Europe create the potential for shocks. Next year's elections in France and Italy will be key events.
Emerging markets – With both the USD and US cost of debt increasing we will watch EM's closely with interest as these factors could have an adverse impact on their underlying economies. In particular, there could be issues in Latin American economies.
Our preferences for the Big Four Banks
- NAB – The bank has shrunk its institutional business and renewed its focus on the core business, which is a positive in our view. In addition, its business banking division is strong. NAB is well placed to take out costs and build its capital position post-divestments.
- ANZ – Potential divestment catalysts and again shrinking their loan book. Happy to play the divestment thesis.
- WBC – A strong and high-quality bank, however Westpac is well priced at the moment. We rank it third purely on valuation.
- CBA – Currently, CBA is the most expensive bank, so again we rank it on a valuation basis.

The Gingerbreads were beaten 3-1 at Nantwich Town to bow out of the competition, while Sports fared no better, crashing 3-0 at Stafford Rangers.
The two go head to head after making encouraging starts to their respective league seasons, Grantham cruelly being denied victory by two late goals against Matlock Town which leaves them with eight points from five games.
Sports have one more point, having registered three wins and two defeats so far.
Grantham boss Paul Rawden told the club's official website: "We were way too far off our expectations for performance levels last time out.
"It is vital that whoever is in the squad on Tuesday goes out and gets both a positive result and delivers a good show for the fans to get us back on track.
"They have some players who know the league well and have played at higher divisions just like we do. We need to be intelligent with the ball and have confidence in ourselves."
Recent signing Chib Chilaka will go up against his former club.

Motorola is back with a refreshed line of Android smartphones called the Moto G, Moto X Pla, and Moto X Style. The new phones will be marketed to customers who don't mind paying full price for phones.
Motorola President Rick Osterloh previously mentioned that his company strives to create quality phones that don't cost too much. The new Moto G certainly lives up to that expectation as the device retails for $180 without a contract in the United States. Prices for the Moto X models are still unknown, but some predict the phones will cost several hundred dollars less than similar models made by competitors.
Specs and features for Moto G and Moto X phones
The Moto G boasts a 13-megapixel camera, 4G LTE and waterproof design. The Moto X Play features a 5.5-inch body and improved battery life that lasts for at least two days. The larger Moto X Style phone comes with a 5.7-inch body and a battery that lasts over one day. Both phones from the Moto X line feature 21-megapixel cameras. Unlike the Moto G, the latter two models won't come with extensive water protection. All three phones are also part of the Pure Edition line that was designed for a simpler experience.

Motorola's ambitions
The company's SVP of Consumer Experience Design, Jim Wicks, explained, "It seems like the name Pure Edition sort of embodies that. There's no bloatware, there's no extra stuff on the back end that you get with carrier requirements. We just felt the name embodied the spirit of the product. People want battery life, they want a camera, they want clean, fast software, and that's what we've been trying to drive. Let's not bring in all those extra bells and whistles."
Motorola launches the Moto G today, and the other two models are expected to launch sometime next month in select markets.

Back in the days when I typed for a living, I was really good at it. No really. I don't remember the actual number, but I typed in the mid 80 words per minute range. My boss thought it would look good to send me to "intermediate typing school." Mind you, I was in the military at the time, not civilian. Anyway...I was graduated on the first day. They couldn't "drop" me from the class because that wouldn't look good on my record. But they said there was nothing they could teach me. And as a matter of fact, would I like to come work for them? But I've really slowed down! Check this out...

This week is the Orchid Male Cancer Awareness Week.
This hugely important week raises awareness of male specific cancers - penile, testicular and prostate. The charity provides practical advice, support and information on the detection, diagnosis and treatment of these cancers.
Early detection greatly increases the chances for successful treatment
Recognising possible symptoms and taking the appropriate action can help in the prompt diagnosis and treatment of any cancer. This is of particular importance to men who are less inclined to visit the doctor than women, and appear to have a lack of awareness of their own health despite being 14% more likely to develop cancer than women.* Sadly, according to Peter Baker, Chief Executive of the Men's Health Forum, "Men are less aware of the symptoms than women and are more reluctant to seek help." Even in 2018, when male cancer is more widely discussed thanks to the work of charities such as 'Orchid', 'Movember' and 'Balls to Cancer' men are still not seeking the help they need early enough.
As well as men knowing and recognising the symptoms of cancer as early as possible, it's also critical that GP's correctly test and diagnose for the disease so that patients get the very best chance of surviving the disease.
As can be seen from the list below, the symptoms of cancer may not be immediately obvious.
Penile Cancer – Symptoms • A growth or ulcer on the penis • Changes in colour of the penis • Skin thickening on the penis • Persistent discharge & foul odour beneath the foreskin • Blood coming from the tip of the penis or under the foreskin • Unexplained pain in the shaft or tip of the penis • Irregular or growing bluish-brown flat lesions or marks beneath the foreskin or on the body of the penis • Reddish, velvety rash beneath the foreskin • Small, crusty bumps beneath the foreskin • Irregular swelling at the end of the penis
Testicular Cancer – Symptoms • A small pea sized lump • Dragging sensation, ache or pain • Recent history of trauma • Breast swelling or tenderness • Back pain
Prostate Cancer – Symptoms • Slow or weak flow of urine • Urinating frequently or urgently • Difficulty starting to urinate • Pain or burning sensation when urinating • Unexplained urinary infection
If you are concerned for yourself or a partner, seeking help as early as possible is vital to ensure the successful treatment of any cancer. If you believe that you GP failed to spot the signs of cancer early enough, get in touch to see how we can help.

The new bike
Check out our sweet new ride! I got a Yuba Mundo with plans to bike commute for most of my local errands.
I've been tooling around the 'hood with it for a little while but today was our first trip to the grocery store.
Heading off to the store, with a stop by my parent's house on the way…
Home again with two GIANT saddle bags full of groceries. Actually they weren't even close to being full; these bags swallow everything up.
Note: I am wearing my recently knit "ugly sweater". I called it that the entire time I worked on it and it is indeed frumpy but very comfy;)
The conservative haul. I was afraid it would be too heavy for me to balance the weight of a 55 pound bike, two kids and a ton of groceries but it was amazingly smooth…

It is a meat dairy type and is used for draft purposes. Purebreds are rare.
These breeders were motivated by the promising prospect of developing Herefords with outstanding beef-producing characteristics, but with the added desirable trait of being naturally hornless. They planted the seed from which grew a new giant in the American and world beef cattle industry
The Polled Hereford of today is the result - a modern, practical breed of cattle that has experienced widespread acceptance and desirability.
Polled Herefords were developed from the horned Hereford breed which was founded in the mid-18th century by the farmers of Hereford County, England. Among the horned Herefords an occasional calf would be born which did not develop horns. This change from parents' characteristics is known as a "mutation." These cattle soon came to be called "polled," which means naturally hornless.
Warren Gammon, a young Iowa Hereford breeder from Des Moines, originated Polled Herefords. He seized upon the idea of producing the hornless cattle after seeing some on exhibition at the Trans-Mississippi World Fair in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1898.
Three years later, Gammon established the Polled Hereford breed registry with 11 head of naturally hornless whiteface cattle he had located and purchased. These Herefords were registered in the American Hereford Association, but were not identified as to their polled characteristic. Therefore, Gammon formed the American Polled Hereford Cattle Club to maintain a separate record of purebred Polled Hereford registrations.
Thus, in 1901, the Polled Hereford breed came into being with 11 registrations on record. In 1907, the pioneer breeders of Polled Herefords incorporated their organization, with headquarters in the Gammon home in Des Moines. Gammon served as executive secretary until 1921.
Today the Polled Hereford registry is combined with the American Hereford Association. [Oklahoma State University]
The neck is short and powerful. The barrel is moderately long. The sheath is short and tight. The dewlap is light and thin. The hump is well-developed in bulls but is small in cows. The cows have small and poorly developed udders. The tail is long and tapering with a white switch.
Ponwar cattle are usually black and white; the color markings do not have any particular pattern, but large patches of black and white are intermixed.
The cattle of this breed are active and often fiery-tempered. They are observed to thrive well under free grazing conditions. The bullocks are good for draft purposes. They are quick movers. The animals of this breed are observed to mature late. The cows are poor milkers and are rarely milked even in the flush of their production.
The Piemonte region of Northwest Italy (razza Piemontese) is a secluded pocket, naturally protected by the Alps mountains. Aurochs, (bos Taurus) ancient European cattle, populated this region. Some 25,000 years ago, a type of cattle known as Zebu (bos Indicus) began a massive migration from Pakistan. The vanguard of this migration entered the Piedmont valleys and were blocked from further movement by the Alps. These cattle stayed and intermingled with the local "native" cattle - the Auroch. These two distinct breeds - the Auroch and the Zebu - fused and evolved through natural sel;ection over the next 25,000 years to become the Piedmontese breed.
All Italian white breeds, Piedmontese included, are born 'fawn' or tan and change to the grey-white color, with black skin pigmentation. The Piedmontese, however, also carry genetic traits absolutely unique to them. In 1886, the appearance of double-muscling (DM) in Piedmontese cattle attracted the attention of breeders, who had the foresight to recognize the enormous potential of this development. The first Herdbook was opened in 1887, and improvement campaign and standard of merit have led to many years of genetic selection to eliminate detrimental aspects generally associated with DM.
In Italy, the Piedmontese have been (and many still are today) utilized as a dual-purpose animal...having very rich milk used for specialty cheese production and beef marketed as a premium product. The first Piedmontese in North America arrived in the fall of 1979 through an importation made from Italy by the PBL Co-operative of Saskatchewan, Canada. Additional importation throught he 1980s added to the Piedmontese lines in North America. By the 1990's, import of genetic material (semen and embryos) had dramatically improved - and there is now a wealth of bloodlines to select from. [Oklahoma State University]
About 500 AD., Alpine herdsmen, who ran their cattle on small, widely scattered, rocky pastures, had begun to develop a breed of red and white cattle from the native red Bavarian cattle. These early cattlemen selected animals that could withstand the harsh conditions and still produce meat and milk. Farmers in the highly productive valleys and other lush areas of Bavaria, developed larger, brown and spotted (flecked) breeds of cattle from the same original, native seedstock. Later in history, Pinzgauer attained their present form and color. The designation "Pinzgauer" drives from the "Pinzgau" district in the province of Salzburg, Austria, and appears for the first time in documents of the 1600's. Herd books dated in the 1700's show that selective breeding had been going on for some time, and there are records of exportations of "Pinzgauer Cattle" to Rumania, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia in the 1820's. In 1871 Pinzgauer cattle were sent to the Paris World Exhibition. In the early 1900's, a number of breeding cattle were exported to South Africa, which has the second largest herd of fullblood animals in the world today.
Milk Yield
The milk productivity of Pinzguaer cows is on average 4,000/5,000 kg of milk. The good capacity for eating large amounts of food, good temperament, maternal instinct and remarkable fertility are important elements for justifying using the Pinzguaer breed also for breeding nursing cows.
Beef production
With an intensive fattening the average daily weight increase is about 1,400 g with a slaughter yield of 56-58%. The good meat quality, with first rate marbling, fine fiber and light red color satisfy consumer requirements.
Beef Program
The first attempts at Pinzguaer selection date back to the 18th century. In 1989 the inbreeding programs "Pinzguaer 2000" and "Moet programs" were integrated to develop the double aptitude of the breed, without forsaking such aspects such as resistance and energy.
Horned or Polled, Pinzgauers have pigmented skin under a chestnut red coat and white markings on the back, tail and barrel. They adapt readily and easily to a variety of climates. Eye problems are rare. Smooth hair and firm, flexible skin prevents tick and other insect infestations.
Mature bulls average 2000 pounds and up, while mature females level out at approximately 1,000 to 1,600 pounds. More moderately sized in relation to the "big is better" theory, Pinzgauer progeny still have above average weaning weights, gainability and feed conversion, but they maintain the easy calving ability that cattlemen prefer. Udders are well-formed and hold up well during lactation.
North American Entry
The first four head of Pinzgauer were imported into Canada in September 1972. Austrian Fullbloods were first imported to the USA in 1976. Live animals, frozen embryos, and semen all have been imported to establish fullblood herds and to upgrade the Purebred Pinzgauers. Pinzgauer as we know them today are the result of rigid performance and registry demands. The American Pinzgauer Association has a breeding-up program which allows a producer to breed up to Purebred Pinzgauer (7/8 for females, 15/16 for bulls) by starting with commercial cows and using Pinzgauer bulls. At the end of 1989, there were over 30,000 Fullblood and Purebred Pinzgauers in the United States, giving the cattlemen a world wide genetic base on which to build a Pinzgauer herd.

Brew Gentlemen Tree Star
What the brewers say
"Watermelon candy, Asian pear, resin, nutty malt."
What our panel thought
Aroma: "Bright blend of lemon, grapefruit, orange, mango, lychee, and floral notes with a touch of earth, mineral, must, and pine in the hops bitterness. A slight fresh-squeezed orange juice back end with just a hint of malt sweetness. Just a touch of pepperiness emerges after the initial sip."
Flavor: "Balanced like an Orange Julius—fruity and sweet throughout, with bitterness to balance, and a bit of tartness mid-palate. Resinous and spicy piney hops characters add just enough bite to help temper the light malt bread-crust sweetness but don't linger too long. Good carbonation makes the right parts of the beer pop. Finishes slightly dry and bitter, with notes of mango and tropical fruit."
Overall: "An excellent beer that was fun to parse out. More floral than fruity, with a medium bitterness that is well-balanced. The body is a bit assertive given the floral flavors, but the contrasting hops flavors work well together and only serve to heighten both the citrus and pine flavors. A very fun beer to drink!"

[ Sir Matthew Digby Wyatt (1820-1877), architect and writer on art. ] Autograph Letter Signed ('M. Digby Wyatt') to the herald and playwright J. R. Planché, regarding C. R. Cockerell's theory on 'the Wells & other sculptures' at the Crystal Palace.
3pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged. The name of the addressee has been amended from 'J. B. Waring' to 'J. R. Planché Eqr.' In 1854 Wyatt and Waring had collaborated on four architectural guidebooks to the courts of the Crystal Palace at Sydenham, and the present item relates to sculptures present there. The letter beings iwth Wyatt thanking Planché for 'a copy of your interesting comments on Professor Cockerell's views with respect to the Wells & other sculptures', which he has read 'with care and interest'. They only serve to confirm the original impression which <?> in my mind when I first heard Cockerell promulgate his theory at one of the Academy lectures some 12 years ago, viz - that there existed no evidence worthy of credit for the clear identification of one quarter of the whole number of statues.' As 'Carter, Gough, and others' have 'failed altogether', and as Cockerell's theory has gone uncontradicted 'neither Waring nor I had any other alternative than to cite his work and his authority as all of any importance that had been written on the subject. | Should our handbook ever reach another edition it will be our duty to allude to that as doubtful which at the date of our publication had not been contravened.'

I first heard about tanka sonnets last year when I read two on Claire Everett's blog, At the Edge of Dreams. You can read her beautiful examples lifting the veil and a crow's wing by clicking on the titles. Seriously, go and read them. They are amazing!
I started experimenting with tanka sonnets in January, writing three at that time and really enjoying the form. I plan to send two into New Zealand's Kokako magazine for consideration next month. The third saw the light of day when it appeared on Margaret Dornaus' blog Haiku-doodle yesterday as part of her National Poetry Month: Guest Post series.
You can check out The day the willow spoke by clicking on the title, and also read a bit about why I write haiku once you're there. Margaret is hosting many poets over the course of April so do check in regularly to learn more about writers you already know, and to meet new ones too.

Getting Started with Nuclio on Minikube
Follow this step-by-step guide to set up Nuclio on Minikube, which is a single-node Kubernetes cluster that runs in a virtual machine (VM) on a local computer.
Ensure that the following components are installed on your installation machine:
It's recommended that you use these drivers:
- For Mac OS — hyperkit driver
- For Linux — virtualbox
Prepare Minikube
Start Minikube as you normally would. Note that the following command also enables role-based access control (RBAC) (which is disabled by default on Minikube version 0.24.1 and later) so that you can get more comfortable working with an RBAC-enabled Kubernetes cluster:
Mac OS
minikube start --vm-driver=hyperkit --extra-config=apiserver.authorization-mode=RBAC
minikube start --vm-driver=virtualbox --extra-config=apiserver.authorization-mode=RBAC
Set admin permissions: bypass Minikube configuration issues by giving cluster-admin permissions to the Kubernetes services, so that services such as
kube-dns can work in Minikube:
If you don't want to elevate your Kubernetes services, run Minikube with RBAC disabled (omit
--extra-config from
minikube start) and skip the RBAC related commands in the Nuclio installation instructions.
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nuclio/nuclio/master/hack/minikube/resources/kubedns-rbac.yaml
Bring up a Docker registry inside Minikube. You'll later push your functions to this registry:
minikube ssh -- docker run -d -p 5000:5000 registry:2
Before container images can be pushed to your built-in registry, you need to add its address (
$(minikube ip):5000) to the list of insecure registries:
- Docker for Mac OS — you can add it under Preferences | Daemon.
- Linux: —follow the instructions in the Docker documentation.
Install Nuclio
At this stage you should have a functioning Kubernetes cluster, a Docker registry, and a working Kubernetes CLI (
kubectl), and you can proceed to install the Nuclio services on the cluster (i.e., deploy Nuclio).
Create a Nuclio namespace by running the following command:
kubectl create namespace nuclio
Create the RBAC roles that are required for using Nuclio (provided you didn't disable RBAC when preparing Minikube):
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nuclio/nuclio/master/hack/k8s/resources/nuclio-rbac.yaml
Deploy Nuclio to the cluster: the following command deploys the Nuclio controller and dashboard, among other resources:
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nuclio/nuclio/master/hack/k8s/resources/nuclio.yaml
Use the command
kubectl get pods --namespace nuclio to verify both the controller and dashboard are running.
Forward the Nuclio dashboard port: the Nuclio dashboard publishes a service at port 8070. To use the dashboard, you first need to forward this port to your local IP address:
kubectl port-forward -n nuclio $(kubectl get pods -n nuclio -l nuclio.io/app=dashboard -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') 8070:8070
Deploy a function with the Nuclio dashboard
Browse to
http://localhost:8070 (after having forwarded this port as part of the Nuclio installation). You should see the Nuclio dashboard UI. Choose one of the built-in examples and click Deploy. The first build will populate the local Docker cache with base images and other files, so it might take a while, depending on your network. When the function deployment is completed, you can click Invoke to invoke the function with a body.
Deploy a function with the Nuclio CLI (nuctl)
Start by downloading the latest version of the Nuclio CLI (
nuctl) for your platform, and then deploy the
helloworld Go sample function. You can add the
--verbose flag if you want to peek under the hood:
nuctl deploy helloworld -n nuclio -p https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nuclio/nuclio/master/hack/examples/golang/helloworld/helloworld.go --registry $(minikube ip):5000 --run-registry localhost:5000
- The
--registryoption defines the Docker registry onto which the function images that you build will be pushed. This is the registry that you previously brought up on your Minikube VM.
- The
--registry-runoption defines the registry from which the
kubeletKubernetes "node agent" will pull the function images. Because this operation occurs in the Minikube VM, the command specifies
localhostinstead of the VM's IP address.
Then, invoke the function:
nuctl invoke -n nuclio helloworld
What's next?
See the following resources to make the best of your new Nuclio environment:

Going to be a short backblast – if you wanted to know about it you should've shown up 🙂 With the convergence coming up, Red Roof and I wanted to work in some of the old workouts along with every hill we possibly could. That was the goal and it was successful, even with the ominous rain clouds lurking in the foreground.
Pax: Red Roof (Q), Mayberry (Q), Wham!, Scratch, Gillispie
Weather : 60's and perfect.
COP: SSH (20), Grass Grabbers (20), Imp. Walk. (20), Merkins (10 – IC)
Thang 1
Moseyed over to Cogan's Corner (half-pipe) for some 7's x 2 (just like 7's but multiply reps by 2): groiners and jump squats with 2 merkins at the bottom of the half-pipe. I had to explain the math to Scratch, but once he got it we were good.
Thang 2
Moseyed over to Seneca Gardens Dr Hill, and divided into two groups, one performed an exercise at the bottom of the hill while the others ran to the top completed exercise #2 and returned to relieved Group 1 – rinse and repeat.
Round 1: Group 1 – LBCs, Group 2 – 20 American Hammers
Round 2: Group 2 – Freddie Mercuries, Group 2 – 20 Heals to the Heaven
Thang 3
Moseyed over to the Dirt Half Pipe for Red Roof's beatdown.
7's with Merkins and LBC at the top and 5 Bobby Hurley's at the bottom. It was good to be back at this half-pipe, it's been a long winter without it.
Thang 4
Moseyed over to the Field Hockey Field for some baseball coupon work. Grab a coupon and keep it with you. 1st base LBC, 2nd base coupon squat, 3rd base thrusters, home merkins. Two rounds.
COT and Prayers to the Sky Q.

The Lifestyle Lookbook: Factors That Cause Infertility
If you're a serial smoker, a gyrating gym junkie or an authority on all things alcohol; or if you're older than 35, there's a good chance that your fertility metre has started beating to a different rhythm. And not necessarily a nice one at that. Fertility is as much governed by lifestyle as it is by genes, and there are several essential ingredients that go into making a baby; some, that you may have completely overlooked.
Get Consultation At The Best Fertility Hospital In Chandigarh.
If you're thinking of starting a family, here's a round-up of factors you should assess to make sure you're on the right path.
Today, many millennial couples choose to start families in their 30s and sometimes even their forties, when declining fertility is imminent. A woman's ovarian reserves typically start dwindling at the age of 35, with remaining eggs usually exhibiting inferior attributes. Of course, while male fertility is also known to be inversely proportional to age, men produce sperm on an ongoing basis, whereas women's egg reserves are built-in at birth.
Smoking can be a tantalising trap for your fertility. The habit has been found to affect both male and female factor infertility, increasing the odds of low birth weight, miscarriage and preterm delivery. Women who smoke also typically harbour lower egg reserves than those who don't, while male smokers are impacted in the sperm motility, sperm morphology and sperm count departments. Studies have shown that smokers' chances of conception through assisted reproduction techniques are halved when compared to those of non-smokers. That means as a smoker, you'll likely have to go through double the cycles as you would if you didn't smoke. If you're planning on starting a family via assisted reproduction, make sure you kick the butt at least three months before your first cycle.
Like the occasional evening livener? Unless you're extremely selective with your alcohol schedule, it's probably wise to plug your wine bottle right back and say "No way, José Rosé." Alcohol consumption is tightly tethered to infertility and miscarriage, with studies confirming that fertile women looking to conceive drop their chances of conception by as much as 30%, with just 1 to 5 drinks per week. Assisted reproductive techniques point to lowered egg reserves and compromised pregnancy rates in women who drink alcohol up to the month before their first cycle. Alcohol can play just as much of a role in male infertility, with considerable consumption affecting sperm count and motility. Like with women, men who consume alcohol upto the month before their first in vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycle display inferior pregnancy rates.
Body Weight
Fertility is closely dictated by body weight, and being underweight or overweight can affect your ability to get pregnant. Featuring on the higher end of the weighing scale can indicate ovulation dysfunction or polycystic ovaries, and often, even a little weight loss can restore ovulation. Being underweight can entail its own set of fertility problems, often manifested by irregular or absent periods and sporadic ovulation.
As processed products and foods with preservatives and additives become increasingly present in our kitchens, it's important to acknowledge the effects that they have. Unless you buy organic produce, it's likely that your veggies and fruits come with a generous smattering of pesticides and fertilisers. Junk food can also wreak havoc with your hormonal equilibrium. The lesson here? Pick as much organic produce as you can and restrict your processed food intake. Include healthy fats, low carbs, milk and iron in your meals. Meet a nutritionist to seek out a healthy meal plan that works for you. It's amazing to think how close a relationship your hormonal reserves have to the food on your plate.
Lifestyle and fertility are two sides of the same coin, and you'll start noticing tangible differences if you work on augmenting your routine and your health. Sometimes, infertility is a product of uncontrollable biological factors, and if you suspect a problem, consider meeting a fertility specialist to know the best way forward.
Starting a family doesn't have to be a calculated, convoluted effort. On Cloudnine, let us help you get started.

Bozeman, Lock Up Your Cars, Unless You Want Someone to Take Your Stuff
Yes, we live in a great place. We also live in a town where people will jack your stuff if you leave it unlocked or unattended. Bozeman Police have issued this update today:
The Bozeman Police Department has been responding to a large number of property crimes to include stolen vehicles and bicycles as well as vehicle break-ins.
In just the last two months, the Bozeman Police Department has received over 70 reports of vehicles which have been broken into, the majority of which have reported items being stolen.
Anything from cash to guns are being taken and it appears all of the vehicles had been left unlocked prior to the theft. We are also aware many people have not reported similar incidents and understand the impact is much higher than this.
During the same time period we have received 35 reports of stolen bicycles from residents in the city. In the majority of those cases the bicycles were left unlocked.
In addition to stolen bicycles, we have received reports of 19 stolen vehicles within the last couple months. As with the previously reported crimes, the cars were left unlocked and keys were available somewhere in the vehicle.
Also please document serial numbers on valuable items to include bicycles. In the event they are stolen, serial numbers are valuable in identifying your property.

The "incredibly brave" people who make the first journey to Mar will need somewhere to live.
And an engineer has discovered a way to make bricks from the planet's red soil without a kiln or any other ingredients.
Instead, the bricks could be made be simply pounding the soil with a hammer, according to tests carried out in California.
In March, Donald Trump signed an order directing Nasa to send astronauts to Mars in 2033, confirming plans drawn up under Barack Obama in 2010. However Mr Trump then decided he wanted the mission to take place before the end of his four-year term of office, although it was unclear if he was joking.
Nasa has already begun work on how to overcome the considerable obstacles to making the perilous journey.
Yu Qiao, a professor of structural engineering at University of California San Diego, said: "The people who will go to Mars will be incredibly brave. They will be pioneers.
"And I would be honoured to be their brick maker."
Funded by Nasa, Professor Qiao and a team of engineers were tasked with coming up with a way to make buildings on Mars.
Their research led to a way to make buildings with only minimal resources – a key issue given the limit to the amount of materials and equipment the colonists will be able to take.
One previous suggestion was to build a nuclear-powered brick kiln.
Writing in the journal Scientific Reports, the engineers described how they discovered a simulated version of Martian soil could be turned into a useable brick.
Their technique involves encasing the soil in a rubber tube, then exerting pressure equivalent to someone dropping a 5kg hammer from about a metre.
It is believed iron oxide in the soil – which gives Mars its red colour – acts as a binding agent.
The resulting bricks, which are only about 2.5cm high, were found to be stronger than steel-reinforced concrete.
It is thought the colonist could lay down a layer of soil, compact it, then add another layer.
The engineers may also look into increasing the size of the bricks.
Before sending astronauts to Mars, Nasa plans to send a team to an asteroid with an extraordinary mission expected to take place by 2025.
"Nasa will send a robotic mission to capture and redirect an asteroid to orbit the moon," its website says.
"Astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft will explore the asteroid in the 2020s, returning to Earth with samples.
"This experience in human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit will help Nasa test new systems and capabilities, such as solar electric propulsion, which we'll need to send cargo as part of human missions to Mars.
"Beginning in 2018, Nasa's powerful Space Launch System (SLS) rocket will enable these 'proving ground' missions to test new capabilities.
"Human missions to Mars will rely on Orion and an evolved version of SLS that will be the most powerful launch vehicle ever flown."
The idea is to send people to Mars and then bring them back to Earth.
"Engineers and scientists around the country are working hard to develop the technologies astronauts will use to one day live and work on Mars, and safely return home from the next giant leap for humanity," Nasa said.

To say It's been an active couple of weeks of severe weather would be an understatement. Tuesday marked the 13th consecutive day of tornados in the central U.S., with now well over 400 tornado reports in total.
We even had a couple weak, brief touchdowns in far southeastern Minnesota Monday.
Unfortunately, Wednesday looks to be another active day to the south. One of the interesting trends we're seeing with climate change is that the annual, total number of tornadoes has remained constant but we're seeing fewer outbreaks.
That being said, when we do see those severe storms and outbreaks they are producing more individual tornadoes than in the past. but when we do see severe storms, they're producing more tornadoes than in the past. Another trend we talked about last month is that while the core of tornado alley is seeing fewer tornadoes, areas further east that are outside of 'traditional tornado alley' (Tennessee, Kentucky) are seeing an increase in twisters.
