What Life Is
Life is full of many contradictions.
Sometimes the warmest dawn
can feel cold in spirit.
And sometimes the sun shines brightest
on the most bitter winter day.
Life should seek warmth.
It should seek the love and companionship
of like souls.
It should search for the smile
in the face of tears.
It should search for friendship's warm glow
in the midst of darkness
Life was never meant to be lived in solitary.
It was always meant to be shared.
So in life,
Give yourself that second chance.
Open up to new friendships.
Give the benefit of a doubt
when you aren't certain.
Live life to the fullest.
Not in what you DO, but
in what you GIVE to others.
And in doing so,
you'll find that you've received more from life
than you ever expected.

BRYAN, TEXAS (seminoles.com) – Florida State freshman Kayla Jones shot an even par 72 and is in a tie for first place in the individual standings, and the Seminole women's golf team is in a tie for second place in the team standings with one round remaining to be played in the Mo Morial Invitational at the Traditions Course at Texas A&M University. Jones has a 36-hole total of 141 after shooting a 69 in the first round and is tied with Maddie Szeryk of Texas A&M for the individual lead heading into Wednesday's final round.
Florida State's Jones, who is playing in her first career collegiate event, is tied with Szeryk for first place in the individual standings. Jones and Szeryk are two strokes ahead of Clara Baena and Alex Harrell of Auburn who are tied for third with identical scores of 143. Szeryk, who is playing on her home course, shot a tournament record 65 (which included a hole in one) in the second round to move from a tie for 26th place after the first round into a tie for the lead after two rounds.
Auburn maintained its team lead and begins play in the third round with a nine stroke lead over Florida State and Texas A&M in the race for the team championship. The Tigers (-1) and Aggies (-4) were the only teams to shoot under par in the second round. Florida State improved its team score by five strokes as compared to the first round and is the only team in the tournament with each of its five golfers in the top 30 of the individual standings.
The story for Florida State continued to be Jones (Milton, Ga.) for the second consecutive day as she remained in first place in the individual standings with her two round total of 141. She shot a 3 under par score of 69 in the first round and totaled an even par 72 in the second round. Jones is one of only three players (also Baena and Harrell of Auburn) who have carded scores of par of better in both of the first two rounds.
Jones led the Seminoles with five birdies in the second round to bring her two day total to 12 in shooting even par. She was as many as two strokes under par with three birdies on her first eight holes and finished her front nine at 1 under par. She then closed the round well as she birdied the final two holes of the round to finish at even par.
"I have really worked hard to believe in myself and in my abilities in my first tournament as a Seminole," said Jones. "I have hit some bumps in the road but I have been able to stay patient until the birdies came."
Jones carded 14 of 18 holes at par or better and played only one hole more than one stroke above par.
Sophomore Lydia Gumm (Radcliff, Ky.) played the best round of the day for the Seminoles as she shot a career best 2-under par score of 70. She has a career-best two round total of 145. She played the best round of her collegiate career with three birdies, 17 of 18 holes at par or better and only one bogey. Gumm was consistent on her front side with nine consecutive holes scored at par. After a bogey on the par 5 hole No. 10, Gumm finished her afternoon with three birdies and five holes scored at par on her final eight holes to finish with her career best score.
"I hit every fairway today, so that allowed me to go for pins and gave me good birdie opportunities," said Gumm. "I also felt better today with my putting. I am really excited for our team and hope we can all finish strong tomorrow."
Gumm was never more than 1 stroke above par and was at or below par following 16 of the 18 holes she played during the round. She enters the final round of play in a tie for sixth place in the individual standings and will play for the best and first top 10 finish of her Seminole career. Gumm finished in a career-best tied for 11th place in the Florida Challenge in the spring of 2014.
Senior Alex Milan (Lutz, Fla.) carded an even par score of 72 and moved into a tie for 19th place in the individual standings with a two-day total of 150. She was very consistent throughout the round as she carded 17 of 18 holes at par or better with two birdies. Milan was 2-under par after 15 holes before scoring a bogey on the par three hole No. 16. She gathered herself after the bogey and closed with two straight holes scored at par. She has carded scores of par or better in five of her last 11 rounds dating back to the spring 2014 season.
Sophomore Anna Sophia Bohmer (Cali, Colombia) and senior Laure Castelain (Bordeaux, France) carded scores of 77 and are in 25th and a tie for 30th place, respectively, in the individual standings.
"We played a pretty good round of golf today," said head coach Amy Bond. "I was proud of the way we battled back especially at the end of the round. We are playing in the final group on the final day and we have given ourselves a shot to win the tournament. That is one of our goals in each tournament we play and that's all we need – a shot to win."
Florida State will play for its second championship under head coach Amy Bond as they tee off with Auburn and Texas A&M in Wednesday's third and final round. The Seminoles won the team championship at the Web.com/Marsh Landing Invitational during the spring of 2014.

There is actually a reason for this. If performance dropped just because you have not eaten for 45 minutes it would make hunting very difficult.
Old warrior tribes used to wait till after the other party had eaten before they would attack, as that would make them slower and more sluggish in combat.

These retro fonts help us create text designs that look classy, hip and eye-catching.
Retro… what an age that was! Even though I never experienced that era but I do feel a part of it, I think we all do.
These are the retro fonts which designed posters of The Beatles and Elvis, they designed posters of John F. Kennedy's electoral campaign, and now you can design anything with them.
Designing in old styles is pretty fun thing and as a designer I enjoyed it a lot. So I suggest you should also give it a try if you haven't before.
That was the time when life was easy and people were simple. But alas, that time is gone now, yet nostalgia will keep striking us again and again. We can't go back in time but we can make this time look like the old times. These fonts do that in their own humble way.
Note: as always, the all-in-one download file is being provided so you can download all of these fonts with a single click.
Here are some other posts that I created using retro styled designing.
- Retro Photoshop Patterns and Backgrounds: Photoshop patterns are a unique resource for creating backgrounds and tile-able images. You can use these patterns through Layer Styles or using Pattern Stamp Tool. This tool is found in the sub-menu of Clone Stamp Tool.
- Retro Style Designing – Photoshop Tutorials: This is a collection of Photoshop tutorials to get you going on retro styled designing.
- How to Create a Retro Wallpaper in Photoshop: This is a I designed. It is a old style wallpaper, if you are someone born in the 60s and want to relive that era in today's computer based world, then dress up your computer according to the 60s.
Update: 20 More Retro Fonts
Thank you so much for appreciating this post so much. You guys requested us more fonts on the same topic so we included here. Now the all in one download file contains 40 retro fonts.

Coast women prepare to take on trek of a lifetime
GOING about her regularly day as a beauty therapist at her Emu Park business, My Beauty Spot, Rebecca Weston struck up a conversation with a regular client that would led her to a trip of her lifetime.
Rebecca, 38, an ex-Navy servicewoman who moved to the area four years ago, was talking to her client, Cresta Clarke, how she wanted to make some new friends.
After getting to talking the women realised they both had a common interest - hiking and trekking.
Cresta was talking about how she was going to hike to Mt Everest Base Camp with her two friends, Simone Stokes and Kate Price and she invited Rebecca to come along as well.
Cresta does the trip to the Himalayas annually, to take supplies and do volunteer work as a Occupational Therapist at the Special School for Disabled and Rehabilitation Centre in Kathmandu.
The group of four women, three of which who are Mums, head to Nepal in just under 11 weeks in October.
To prepare themselves for the intense trek, the group have been training.
"Just walking around the local area, there isn't a lot of mountains around here, we do laps of Kemp Hill, around Emu Park on steep hills, Mount Archer," Rebecca said.
The trek to Mount Everest base camp will be split across nine days, sleeping in tin sheds called Teahouses along the way.
The ladies will fly into Kathmandu and then onto Lukla, which is labelled as the world's most dangerous airport, where their trek will begin.
From Lukla, climbers trek upward to the Sherpa capital of Namche Bazaar, 3,440 metres, following the valley of the Dudh Kosi river.
It will take about two days to reach the village, the central hub of the area, where they will rest for acclimatisation.
They then trek another two days to Dingboche, 4,260 metres, before resting for another day for further acclimatisation.
Onto Gorakshep, the flat field below Kala Patthar, 5,545 metres and Mt. Pumori will lead the to Mt Everest Base Camp.
They will trek high and then sleep low, trying to attune their body to 5, 300 metres altitude.
Most days it will be four to six hours trekking and on one day, it will be 11 hours.
"Hopefully our bodies can handle the altitude and the thin air," she said.
Packing all of their gear including food, drinks and sleeping gear into bags to take with them up the mountain, a main goal of the group is to look after the environment.
The area has quite a substantial waste issue so the group will all be taking camelbacks and using purification tablets for their water so they don't need to use plastic water bottles.
"We don't want to add to the problem and we are very passionate about that," Rebecca said.
Rebecca is looking forward to the whole experience, crossing the suspension bridges and seeing mountain bull Yaks.
"To put my flag in the ground and say that I made it," she said.
"I just cant wait, the whole thing is going to be amazing."
While Mt Everest Base Camp will be a stark comparison, the mother of three has climbed Mount Bartle Frere, Queensland's steepest mountain and active volcano, Mount Batur in Bali.
And to top it off, she will get to share the life-changing experience with her new friends.
"They will be my lifelong friends, we have just clicked so well," she said

How to Glue Styrofoam Insulating Panels Together
Styrofoam insulation is a type of rigid insulation that is affordable, efficient and versatile, making it common in home building and renovation projects. It works well over concrete in your crawl space, walls and attic. Whether you're building a new house or finishing a basement space, Styrofoam insulation is simple to install with the right adhesive. Not every adhesive works with the Styrofoam, so picking the right adhesive is key to holding your Styrofoam panels together securely.
Wait until the glue on the existing layer of Styrofoam insulation panels has dried overnight.
Cut the tip off a tube of foamboard adhesive or polystyrene construction adhesive with a utility knife. Foamboard adhesive is designed specifically for foam applications, so it's the best choice for the job and available at most home improvement stores. If you can't find it, the polystyrene adhesive is designed for a broader use, including particleboard and wood. It successfully adheres to the foam insulation in most cases.
Cut a piece of foam insulation in half lengthwise by scoring it with a utility knife and breaking it along the score.
Squeeze beads of adhesive on the back of a panel of Styrofoam insulation following a zigzag pattern. Press the panel onto an existing panel, sliding your hand outward in all directions from the center with firm pressure to flatten the glue.
Apply glue to the next panel. Don't cut this panel; it should overlap the seams on the first layer of insulation. The first panel was cut to allow subsequent panels to alternate seams, improving the efficiency of the insulation. Press the panel into place, butting it against the panel you just installed.
Continue applying adhesive and installing panels over the existing layer of Styrofoam insulation until the wall or floor is covered.
Tape over all seams on the outer layer of insulation with 3-inch weatherproof tape. This includes the sides, tops and bottoms where the insulation meets the framing, wall or ceiling.
Things Needed
- Utility knife
- Foamboard adhesive or polystyrene construction adhesive
- 3-inch weatherproof tape

A lot of us say we trust God with our plans, and lives.
However, what we really mean and do is put the creator in the passenger's seat, while we attempt to control the steering wheels of our destinies.
As expected, this often results in lots of wrong turns, failures and eventually, a crash, leaving Carrie Underwood's 'Jesus, Take The Wheel' on our lips.
ALSO READ: 5 things to do when your prayers are not answered
Today, God is calling us to leave the driving to Him, trusting and having faith in His plan for us.
Note, that this can only be done with total surrender and complete faith that what He wants for us is bigger and greater than we could ever possibly imagine.
Hebrews 11:6 says, "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
Having faith in God's plan for our lives leaves us with nothing, but peace of mind, and joy.
Hebrews 4:10 confirms this by saying, "For whoever enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from His."
ALSO READ: Following God's laws is the only path to everlasting peace

Fwd: Falcon in Trouble?
I have been wondering about why I have not found very much to blog about this week. I admit I have been distracted – pleasantly – and perhaps not paying as close attention as I might. But this blog entry from Bill Tieleman is certainly worth bringing to your attention.
A BC Liberal internal poll has been leaked to Bill and it shows that they are 9% behind the NDP. This of course is very different from other recent polls – and Bill has that analysis too. But the 9% figure appear to me to be an average across the province, because he also has figures for current Liberal seats where the NDP lead is much greater. Local issues obviously affect ridings.
Perhaps most shocking is a riding result showing Transportation Minister Kevin Falcon in a neck and neck race with the NDP in Surrey-Cloverdale.
And this is being driven by the recent spate of gang shootings, Olympic costs and the economy. To be fair Bill's source talks about the economy "outside of Victoria and Metro Vancouver". While the resource sedctor has been the hardest hit the big cities are not immune from these effects – and I suspect that voters living here have worries about where things are headed.
The other polls have also been saying that people feel the BC Liberals might be better equipped than the NDP to deal with recession – which if true just shows how ill informed the electorate are. The current economic crisis is the direct result of neo-conservative policies that were being followed by the Bush administration – and forced down the throats of many countries by the IMF and World Bank. Deregulation and a war on public spending have brought about the mess we have now. Huge payments to the financial sector so that they can escape the consequences of their own foolishness have done little to reverse the tide.
My own take is that people in general are getting ready for a change – perhaps not so much because they like the NDP and their policies, but they are getting tired of the arrogance of the Liberals. Their rather obvious grandstanding – and the fatuous suggestion that somehow 2010 will be a magic wand that waves all our cares away – is getting under our collective skin. What I have yet to see is any real understanding that we will not be returning to business as usual. We keep being told this is a recession and that it is a temporary effect – part of a trade cycle with an inevitable upswing, sooner or later. That I doubt.
As it happens I got a call from Pete McMartin this morning – and he is similarly very doubtful that people are ready for the magnitude of changes that will be needed for us to cope with climate change and peak oil. But that is now a reality that we will have to deal with – even if it is yet to be refelcted in polling.
One Response
I read the Pique weekly magazine from Whistler every week and the editorials and letters to the editor shows that the locals are very very worried about the next couple of years. Quite a few people feel that many tourists will stay AWAY just before the Olympics, that during the Olympics too many people will stay overnight in Vancouver, commute to Whistler for the events but not spend that much there, and that Whistler debt load due to the Olympics will be a big burden for many years. The first time I read the Pique several years ago, there was a letter from a tourist from Hong Kong who was appalled by all the rigamarole he had to go through to go from the airport to Whistler. He was expecting rapid transit to downtown Vancouver then a TRAIN to Whistler.

Navsbooks>John Taylor> Layers of history
History is never simple….the story of John Taylor's involvement in the 'Cornish Duty Race' is an example of the truth of this statement. I will resist the onion skin comparison, instead I will resort to the pile of stones image; lift up a stone of historical fact only to discover another one beneath. Keep lifting, keep digging and more facinating stories emerge. Here's the first stone.
Steam engine development was accelerated by the duty race in Cornwall.
A simple statement is based on the fact that Cornish engineer's competed to produce the most efficient engine. It was the combination of the use of 'duty' as a unit of measurement and the public arena of Lean's engine reporters that drove this desire to compete.
Duty was a measurement of performance against fuel used, its units were a strange mix:Pounds of water lifted one foot by burning one bushel of coal. Lean's Reporters were a regular produced publication produced by the Lean family that contained tables of mine engine performance.
In their heyday their was much publicity to be gained from being at the top of Lean's table, and even more from breaking new records of performance. Taylor played a major part in this duty race; a race that lifted Cornish engineering from stagnation to world prominence. Here are some significant stages in the battle.
1811 The reporter is started by Joel Lean, and the battle to be top of the tables commences.
The highest duty recorded was 22.3m at Wheal Alfred
1815 Woolf's compound engine at Wheal Vor is the first engine to achieve 50m.
1827 Grose's 80″ at Wheal Towan is recorded at 67m.
1827 Taylor's 90″ was moved from Wheal Alfred to Consol's, and renamed Woolf's, where it returned a duty of 67m, a trial is demanded, one is run.
1828 Grose achieved 87m with his Towan engine, trial is demanded, a trial is run.
1832 Eustace's 80″ at Wheal Darlington achieves 91m. Many of the other top slots in the table is filled with Hocking and Loam engines built for John Taylor.
1835 West's Austen's engine s recorded at 90m, a trial is demanded.
1835 in October William West's Austen's engine achieves 125m on a 24 hour trial, a record never broken.
1840 Hocking and Loam's 85″ engine at Taylor's United mine achieves 107m, the largest figure recorded in Lean's
1850s onwards-duties decline the battle is over.
1905 last surviving issue is published.
Who won the duty race? This depends on interpretation, Taylor's Hocking and Loam 85″ was the head of the table for sustainable duty, Austen's William West's engine for short term working. History remembers both.
Time to overturn the next stone.-
The Reporter's were not Lean's, and Duty was not Duty.
The two foundations of this race are shakey, Duty is far from scientifically sound as a measurement, and the Lean's did not create the Reporter that bears their name.
Duty had a fundamental flaw, bushels was a far from certain measurement. Its size could vary, and many reports did not define the bushel in use. Even when defined, accurate measurement would be a challenge in many circumstances, let alone the discrepancies introduced by wet coal.
In addition to this flaw their existed many over opportunities for difference between records. Detailed specifications of recording methods, and assumptions made, were not readily available, resulting in a lack of transparency on the derivation of the results. The basics were straight forward, measure the coal, record the stroke length and use a counter to keep tally of the number strokes made. But outside of this existed many variables that could change the final figure.
Even worse was the opportunity for fraud, engine men could perform all sorts of tricks to tweak the duty upwards, such as deliberately short stroking their engines.
These flaws became aired in public disputes, arguments and accusations that eroded the faith in the Reporter's accuracy. When John Taylor's engineer, Arthur Woolf, moved his 90″ from Wheal Alfred to Consolidated is increase in duty aroused suspicion. When Hocking and Loam's engines at Consols did not degrade in performance in time, that aroused suspicions. When West Achieved 125 m that triggered heated arguments. When West withdrew all his engines from Lean's after being accused of mis-reporting his whim engines' performance, that definitely dented the confidence in the system.
Whatever the flaws inherent in the derivation of the figures, the concept of Duty created an spectacular improvement in steam engine technology.
Likewise the history of the Reporters is not as simple as their title appears. Although Joel Lean published the first one in 1811, it was Captain William Davey and Captain John Davey who instigated the concept. Joel was chosen to arrange the compiling of the publication, and to put his name to the brand.
On its own, this fact is not overly significant to the story, but turn over another stone and it becomes murkier.
The vested interests.
I must thank Bridget Howard for shining a light under this stone, her book is an excellent read, and the Trevithick Society sell it.
Behind the Leans was hidden the Davey's, but behind their involvement was another influence, Arthur Woolf, John Taylor's engineer. Bridget Howard suggests that Woolf set up the reporter to promote his own engines, using Leans as a cover for hidden propaganda. After Joel Lean dies the corruption gets worse, with Woolf exerting pressure on his sons to distort the figures. Eventually the dishonesty causes a split between the two brothers, with John accusing his brother of being intimidated by :
" The menaces of self made men."
John to formed his own reporter in 1827, and none of its mines had Woolf as an engineer.
So throughout his period as engineer for John Taylor Woolf was distorting the system that was supposed to be scientifically driving steam engine development. John's Lean's revelations left John Taylor in a precarious position. His reputation for honest openness was at threat, to many it appeared that he had colluded in a Woolf's underhanded activities.
Is response was a campaign of justifying the accuracy of the reporting system, and proving the efficiency of Cornish engines. It was a campaign that resulted in many papers and talks. Its culmination was a book called 'Historical statement of the Improvements made in the Duty performed by the steam engines in Cornwall.' This book was published by the Lean's, but it was Taylor's concept, Taylor's money was behind it, and Taylor arranged for the society to endorse it.
And so the stones of history have overturned, there is much more to explore. But for now this blog has to move on again, after this wander around John Taylor's life it will return back for a new look at William West.

Title:The Gurkha's Daughter Stories
Author:Prajwal Parajuli
Publish Year:2015
Edition:Reprinted Edition
Cover:Paper Back
Remarks:B&W Illustrations, No dust jacket and the book is just fine.
Size:140 x 210 mm
Price:USD 6.80
A number one bestseller in India and a shortlisted nomination for the Dylan Thomas Prize, The Gurkha's Daughter is a distinctive debut from a rising star in South Asian literature. This collection of stories captures the textures and sounds of the Nepalese diaspora through eight intimate, nuanced portraits, taking us from the hillside city of Darjeeling, India to a tucked away Nepalese restaurant in New York City. The daily struggles of Parajuly's characters reveal histories of war, colonial occupation, religious division, systemized oppression, and dispossession in the diverse geographical intersection of India, Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet, and China. In a cruel remark by a wealthy doctor to her tenant shopkeeper, we hear the persistent injustice of the caste system; in the contentious relationship between a wealthy widow and her sister-in-law, we glimpse the restricted lives and submissive social roles of Nepalese women; and in a daughter's relationship with her father, we find a dissonance between modernity and tradition that has echoed through the generations in unexpected ways.Across different ethnicities, religions, and other social distinctions, the characters in these share a universal yearning, not just for survival but for a better life; one with love, dignity, and community. In The Gurkha's Daughter, Parajuly reveals the small acts of bravery--the sustaining, driving hope--that bind together the human experience.

Match ends, Poland 2, Germany 0.
Poland 2-0 Germany
- From the section Football
World champions Germany lost for the first time in 19 competitive matches as Poland beat them to move top of their Euro 2016 qualifying group.
Arkadiusz Milik's 51st-minute header was added to late on by Sebastian Mila's sweeping finish.
Poland had never before beaten Germany, who had also not lost in 33 previous qualifiers, a run dating back to 2007.
The Poles move above Republic of Ireland on goal difference and next host Scotland on Tuesday.
The leaders have six points, Germany and Scotland have three, with Georgia and Gibraltar each losing both of their opening two qualifiers.
|Tuesday Group D fixtures
|Germany v Republic of Ireland
|Gibraltar v Georgia
|Poland v Scotland
Germany's last qualifying defeat was a 3-0 home defeat by the Czech Republic in October 2007.
But when Lukasz Piszczek angled in a cross that had Manuel Neuer in two minds, Milik rose to divert the ball over the keeper.
The Germans could easily have been five goals to the good before that, with debutant Karim Bellarabi missing a hat-trick of chances, and Thomas Muller and Mats Hummels also wasteful.
Joachim Low's men did everything but score in their quest for an equaliser, Lukas Podolski cracking a volley against the bar in their best effort.
But the hosts resisted and, when Robert Lewandowski powered into the area and squared the ball, Milik's clinical finish sealed a famous Polish victory.
"I can't fault the team, but perhaps we should have made more of our chances," said Low. "After a loss you always need to show a good reaction."
Elsewhere, Albania, who defeated Portugal in the first round of Group I matches, were denied another victory when Denmark came back to earn a 1-1 draw.
Serbia and Armenia also drew 1-1 to leave Portugal bottom of the group.

Super random, but brings back good memories from the days when everything was new and we thought we could add on to the game by just posting it on the forums. We all were just throwing out things we thought were cool, like this... Also, it would take you a pitiful one day to read all of my posts... compared to @Jacoby_Elderfun1's posts which would take you 44 days straight to read!
I really appreciate what a wonderful (yet small) community we have here. Beckendorf
Wait? I thought read time was how much you spent reading posts, not how many days the posts you made added up to. Is there somewhere I'm missing this?
I just assumed that "Read Time" under your account summary was how long it would take someone to read through all of your posts. There is a read-time for forum topics, so I made a some-what logical conclusion that they collected that data for individual users also.
Ah! That makes sense!
Now how do we figure out which it is??? Ask a staff moderator? Get other input?
I'm pretty sure you're right.
I bet there are videos explaining how it works on YouTube since this type of forum is so popular. I can't remember the name of the original though. It starts with a D.
Oh! It's Discourse. I'm looking into it right now.
Yeah, good idea. I have always wondered what template they used for this!
@Jacoby_Elderfun1 [Sorry for Double-posting]
Discourse isn't cheap, either: I wonder if SSS is still paying this? Or maybe they have the "Enterprise" and that is a one-time payment...

I know, I know. It's been awhile. I get it. And a lot has happened since I wrote about C.J. Anderson. And yes, I'm still low on him.
But just because I haven't written anything for you fools in a month or two (or three) doesn't mean I've done a complete 180 on my hot fantasy takes. So much has happened in my life recently. Eleven years after I graduated high school, I finally got my bachelor's degree at the University Of Massachusetts in May. Health Science. Nothing to do with journalism or fantasy football.
Time will tell how smart that decision was.
A week before I walked with cap and gown in Amherst, I hiked up a mountain in Milton and got engaged. Yes, very exciting. The icing on the cake? The fiancé and I took a Eurotrip of sorts that I just got back from on Saturday. Ten days. Bergen (Norway), Prague, and Munich. It was life changing. So what better time to come back refreshed and help you jabronis out than the current? It's not like the league is at it's slowest point in the calendar year or anything, but beggars can't be choosers, right?
Last week, Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said 2015 rookie Tyler Lockett "is a starting wide receiver for us." Veteran Jermaine Kearse, whom started over Lockett last season, was re-signed by the team this offseason. The No. 69 pick in the 2015 NFL draft to Seattle, Lockett broke 17 records in college at Kansas State, becoming the schools all-time leading receiver. Not too shabby. He spent all four years in college instead of leaving early, something admirable, but outside of that, what's the obsession been for over the course of the past week?
In his sophomore season, the Wildcats won the Big 12 Conference title but after that, finished fifth and third in his last two years at the school. "Look at the stats, dummy!" All right. In 2012 — the best year Kansas State had with Lockett on the team — he caught 44 balls for 687 yards and four touchdowns. He also returned two touchdowns as well. Hardly an impact player for the team that ended up winning the conference title as I mentioned. His junior and senior seasons, by comparison, were far better. Eleven touchdowns in back-to-back years but no special teams scores. Having 1,515 yards receiving in his senior season is extremely impressive as well. Back when the 5-foot-10-inch, 182 pound wide receiver was drafted, per Lance Zierlein at NFL.com: "Good play speed…nuanced route runner with ability to sell…" Hmmm, who's that sound like? More on that later.
The second year wideout made All-Pro as a KR but only started eight of Seattle's 18 games. Lockett scored six of his seven TD's after the teams Week 9 bye, including 75 yards and one score in the NFC Championship at Carolina. Pretty good efficiency considering he only had four targets. The seven touchdowns are only on the offensive end, as he added two more to his total through special teams; one punt return and one kick return. What about his counterpart? What about the player whom he's supposed to take over for even though the team just re-signed him?
Jermaine Kearse scored five times last season but only had 49 receptions for 685 yards. By comparison, America's darling the past week had two more receptions but 21 yards less. Comparable statistics, right? Kearse scored twice in the playoffs last season, totaling 128 receiving yards; 53 more than Lockett. Rotoworld recently mentioned that Lockett "is a candidate for 1,000-plus yards and eight-plus TDs." Those statistics about even out when looking at and combining Kearse's season totals with Lockett's, but that's under the guise that Lockett is taking ALL of Kearse's snaps. That just won't happen. Oh, right, I write fantasy football, so lets get to that.
Yahoo! has Lockett being drafted No. 90 overall. ESPN? No. 113. CBS is No. 102. All of these positions are somewhat close when looking at the overall draft picture. The consensus when adding up some of these numbers and averaging them out is that Lockett will get drafted in fantasy leagues No. 92 overall. Early tenth round so far. I fully expect, with the hype train off to a roaring start in the past week, for that that ADP to skyrocket. I wouldn't even remotely be surprised if he ends up going in the early-mid seventh round. I've always said whether it's team need or your love for a player, don't reach on a guy that hasn't proven he can do it at the pro level. Whether it's for a young guy like Lockett, a rookie who hasn't played yet like Ezekiel Elliot, or a veteran with great upside. Reaching DOES NOT = Championship. In fact, it means the exact opposite.
Now people may call me biased, but consider everything said about Lockett. Great route runner, even better speed, good hands, but small in stature. Do yourselves a favor and draft 2016 fifth rounder and UMass Amherst alum, Tennessee Titans WR Tajae Sharpe. He'll have an extremely similar role to Lockett and you'll be able to get him far cheaper. Sharpe led the Nation in receiving yards last season with over 1,300. He only scored five times to Lockett's 11 in his senior year, but he has a young, exciting, mobile QB throwing him the ball whereas while Russell Wilson has all those intangibles, Seattle is still a run-first offense. Both players SHOULD operate primarily out of the slot, but something tells me they'll have Lockett on the outside or even catching slant and screen passes. What ex-Seahawk does that sound like? Percy Harvin, anyone?
Now if you read through all that, you'll be thanking me by the end of the season. Or you'll be tweeting me wishing death on me. One of the two. There's no in between with social media these days.

Preservice Teacher Mentoring in an Authentic Context: The Western University Young Winds Program
Kevin Watson, Western University, London, Canada
Colleen Richardson, Western University, London, Canada
Betty Anne Younker, Western University, London, Canada
Rosemary Bannerman, Thames Valley District School Board, London, Canada
Marisa VanRuitenburg, Queen's University, Kingston, Canada
Authentic-context learning activities are those in which learning initiatives are presented within an environment that resembles actual professional practice (Paul et al., 2001). Educational initiatives that incorporate such activities may help to foster teacher identity and teaching skill development (Austin & Miksza, 2012; L'Roy, 1983). For example, Austin & Miksza (2012) found that participants who taught music to middle school band students as part of a mentoring program showed significant increases in social motivation for teaching, teacher identity, and classroom management efficacy. Legette (2013) has argued that there should be a greater effort to contextualize educational theory so that there is a clearer link between knowledge and skills gained in preservice courses and the context in which they will be used on a daily basis. Given this background, the Western University Young Winds program was created to provide undergraduate students pursuing a music teacher education degree greater opportunities for authentic- context learning, and to further the University's mission to engage with the local community to develop mutually beneficial initiatives. The ten-week program involves volunteer preservice teachers providing weekly instrumental music instruction to students in grades six through nine, supplementary to that provided by community middle school band programs and in some cases filling a void where no school band programs currently exist. The preservice teachers are responsible for recruiting students, preparing and executing lesson plans for full band rehearsals, teaching instrument-specific sectionals, and coaching chamber groups. The teachers are mentored throughout the process by two music education faculty members.
This panel discussion will outline the origination and development of the Western Young Winds program, discuss the program's relationship to other coursework in the music education degree, and examine the value of this curricular innovation to the professional development of participant preservice teachers. The panel discussion will include the perspectives of various stakeholders: (a) University music education faculty members will address the rationale for creating the program and the potential benefits for music teacher education; (b) A public school music educator from the local community with over twenty years of experience teaching elementary and middle school music will provide her perspective on the program's influences on her students; (c) A recent graduate in music education who served as a teacher in Western Young Winds will provide her perspective regarding the effects of the program on the development of teaching identity and expertise; (d) The Dean of the Faculty of Music will address the wider implications for curriculum policy, and how strategic alliances may be formed among music educators, music teacher educators, and related stakeholders.

STRYPER frontman Michael Sweet spoke to New Release Today about the controversy surrounding the title of the band's latest album, "God Damn Evil". Retail giant Walmart refused to carry the LP due to "concerns" over its name — this despite the fact that the group has been providing Christians with a religiously based alternative to mainstream heavy metal for more than three decades.
"With STRYPER, there's always a story," Sweet said (see video below). "And what we try to do is we're not about controversy — we don't sit down and say, 'Hey, let's be controversial,' or, 'Let's create an album title that makes people go into shock.' That's not why we do it. It's more about, 'Let's create a title and let's write a lyric that makes people talk, makes people think, breaks down walls and destroys their preconceived ideas of that particular title.' Like 'God Damn Evil'. When you break it down and you think about it, if you stop and think about it, it's just three words. And everything that goes into those words is what directs the meaning of those words. So, how you apply them, how you mean them, how you present them is how it's going to be used. STRYPER is presenting them in a way as a prayer, as a request."
He continued: "I've already said this, but it's true — when we're looking at Heaven, we're saying, 'God, damn the evil. Damn evil.' People get caught up in, 'Well, you should have used the comma,' 'You should have used 'the,' 'You should have used this, 'You should have done it this way.' No, we shouldn't have. 'Cause that's not what we wanted to do. Then that's your interpretation of it — it's not ours. So, with all due respect, that's why we do what we do — to get people to talk and to think. It's not about being weird or rebellious in an evil way, or trying to shake it up in a bad way. It's not about that — it never has been. People thought that about 'To Hell With The Devil' back in 1986. That album got banned. Oh my gosh, it created so much controversy, and I look back on it now, and it's kind of funny, if you really think about it. 'God Damn Evil' is similar; it's just a different platform. We're not at the level we once were, but we're still trying to make people think and shake people up with what we do."
Formed 36 years ago, STRYPER is the first overtly Christian metal band to go mainstream. The group's name comes from Isaiah 53:5, which states: "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."

Due to their larger tires and a heightened stance, lifted vehicles place extra demands on a shock absorbers damping ability. The 5100 monotube design and patented digressive valving is uniquely suited to confront these demands. On or off-road, loaded or unloaded, Bilstein shocks instantly react to changing road inputs to maintain a stable, controlled, and comfortable ride. Bilstein's superior monotube high gas pressure design allows the excessive heat from the oil to transfer to the outer surface of the shock body and dissipate more efficiently. The dividing piston also permits the oil to expand as heat builds, preventing aeration (foaming) and viscosity loss. This allows the shock to maintain full damping characteristics as temperatures rise.
Product Features
- Set of 4 Shocks – Fits Vehicles w/1.5-3″ Lift
- Shock boots included with all shocks except in cases of special fitment.
- Monotube gas charged for longevity, durability, and performance.
- All necessary washers, bushings, and nuts included. Factory shock mounting bolts are reused for installation.
- Bilstein's Limited Lifetime manufacturer's Warranty protects against defects and premature failure.

Sorry about that, fixed!
mmm tried to view... but video is private
Sorry about that!
how do you click on the video are you when you click on it all you see the picture of a tool box
Pretty cool idea. The plasti dip has a high evaporative chemical in as does all spray paints unless you use the h2o or water born paint from like Walmart. Another option I thought I'd add is using a water base clear coat or a primer first then use the plasti dip if desired
That is a very good idea thanks for sharing.
One thing though, you have posted a playlist above instead of the video of the socket organiser. The relevant video is at second spot in the list.
Neat idea, you know if you don't want the video to be long because of a parts list you can always post the parts list on instructables. Given that unlike youtube there is a text section here. That way no one has to pause and it doesn't make your video all that long. Thanks for sharing!

Seqrite, the enterprise security solutions arm of Quick Heal Technologies, said it has been detecting more daily intrusions by banking malware Emotet since December 2018, marking a big security threat for Indian enterprises.
Emotet, a Trojan first discovered in 2014, steals sensitive financial information. It has evolved into a complex threat distributor capable of providing a launch pad for sophisticated attacks. It does so by hacking email conversation threads to insert malicious links.
"Emotet's evolution over the last five years is as alarming as it is stunning. It is today amongst the most dangerous malware of our times, with major implications for enterprises across India," said Sanjay Katkar, chief technology officer, Quick Heal Technologies.
A single breach could be used as an entry point into multiple networks and systems, potentially compromising data and disrupting processes on a scale not seen before, he said. "This is a wake-up call for Indian enterprises to adopt cutting-edge cyber security solutions," Katkar said.
Detecting an Emotet intrusion is tough because of its polymorphic nature – meaning, it can change itself every time it is downloaded. This makes signature-based detection difficult.
In its current form, Emotet is being used to achieve multiple objectives. Malware authors first steal user credentials, then use these credentials to gain access to user accounts to spam more users and further spread the malicious code. Finally, they deploy other malware such as Qakbot, TrickBot and Ryuk Ransomware on the Emotet-infected system to maximise the damage.
The malware also has the ability to hijack existing email threads and insert a malicious link or infected file without changing the conversation threads. These mails are then sent from the infected endpoint, giving the impression that they've been drafted by one of the correspondents. Anyone then clicking on the link ends up downloading a self-executable copy of Emotet on the computer system.
Katkar said a breach could have long-term implications, leaving them vulnerable to more sophisticated attacks.
Organisations should conduct employee awareness programs and implement robust cyber security and data protection measures, he said. This includes a multi-layered approach to deploying security solutions like endpoint security, unified threat management and secure web gateway.

Michelle Obama: Teachers Are the Key to a Successful Economy
US News and World Reports had an interview with Michelle Obama, first lady of the United States (www.usnews.com/articles/opinion/2009/10/15) I find her comments worth repeating here.
"We all remember the impact a special teacher had on us—a teacher who refused to let us fall through the cracks; who pushed us and believed in us when we doubted ourselves; who sparked in us a lifelong curiosity and passion for learning. Decades later, we remember the way they made us feel and the things they inspired us to do—how they challenged us and changed our lives. So it's not surprising that studies show that the single most important factor affecting students' achievement is the caliber of their teachers. And when we think about the qualities that make an outstanding teacher—boundless energy and endless patience; vision and a sense of purpose; the creativity to help us see the world in a different way; commitment to helping us discover and fulfill our potential—we realize: These are also the qualities of a great leader.
Today, more than ever before, we need precisely this kind of leadership in our classrooms. As the president has frequently said, in a 21st-century global economy where jobs can be shipped to any place with an Internet connection and children here in America will be competing with children around the world for the same jobs, a good education is no longer just one road to opportunity—it is the only road. And good teachers aren't just critical for the success of our students. They are the key to the success of our economy.
But the reality is that with each passing year, we are losing more and more of our most experienced teachers. More than half of our nation's teachers and principals are baby boomers. And in the next four years, as many as one third of America's 3.2 million teachers could retire. The U.S. Department of Education projects that by 2014, just five short years from now, our nation's schools will hire as many as 1 million new teachers. And the challenge to our schools is not just an overall teacher shortage but a shortage of good teachers in the schools where they are most essential: high-need schools that face some of the most daunting obstacles but have students with so much potential. We also have a shortage of teachers in subjects like math and science that we know will be critical to our children's future.
Today, we need a new generation of leaders to take their place in our nation's schools. We need passionate, talented, committed men and women to step up and devote themselves to preparing our students to succeed in this new century.
We need universities to double down on their efforts to prepare teachers and to improve and expand effective alternative routes to certify teachers. We need to encourage more experienced professionals to consider teaching as the next chapter in their careers. And we need to treat teachers like the professionals they are by providing good salaries and high-quality professional development opportunities. We need parents to do their part as well to match that leadership in the classroom with leadership at home. We need to set limits and turn off the TV. We need to put away those video games and make sure that homework gets done. We need to reinforce the example that's being set and the lessons being taught at school and make sure that learning continues at home.
And we need government to support significant efforts to recruit and retain teachers and to reward high-performing teachers. Along those lines, President Obama is already investing more than $3 billion to turn around struggling schools. And he has proposed a nationwide Teacher Recruitment Program to attract more people to the profession, especially in high-need schools. I look forward to being involved with this program and encouraging people across America to put their leadership skills to work in our nation's schools.
Much work lies ahead, and it won't be easy. But I am confident that with a new generation of outstanding leaders in our classrooms, we can make a lasting difference in the lives of our young people and a lasting impact on the life of this nation.

Beer and Cheese FonduePrint Print Without Images
Fondue is always a fun way to get the family together or to impress dinner guests with an engaging meal option alternative.
1 Tbs. unsalted butter
1/2 small yellow onion, minced (about 1/3 cup)
1 large clove garlic, minced
8 oz. extra-sharp white Cheddar, coarsely grated (about 2 lightly packed cups)
12 oz. Emmentaler cheese, coarsely grated (about 3 lightly packed cups)
4 oz. Gruyère, coarsely grated (about 1 lightly packed cup)
(you can use any combination of these cheeses, or substitute Swiss for the Emmentaler)
2 Tbs. cornstarch
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1-12-oz. can lager-style beer, like Budweiser or Coors
3 Tbs. Sherry or Marsala wine
Kosher salt
Tip: A medium-dry sherry or Marsala provides a nice contrast to the bitter beer and the sharp cheddar.
- Melt the butter in a 1-1/2- to 2-qt. flameproof fondue pot over medium-low heat. (If you don't have a fondue pot that's flameproof, use a heavy, narrow saucepan.)
- Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until completely soft and beginning to caramelize, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the cheeses with the cornstarch, mustard, and pepper.
- Add the beer, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer to mellow the flavour of the beer, about 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle the cheese mixture into the pot a large handful at a time, stirring each batch in a back and forth pattern so that the cheese doesn't ball up as it melts.
- Continue adding and stirring until all of the cheese is melted, smooth, and thick, adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain barely a simmer.
- Stir in the sherry and season to taste with salt. (If using a saucepan, transfer the fondue to a fondue pot.) Set the fondue pot over a low flame at the table to keep it warm.
- Serve with the dipping ingredients.
Serving Suggestions
What to dunk: Our family favourites are cubes of crusty baguette and steamed baby potatoes but you can serve it with some or all of the following as dipping options: Sourdough or ciabatta bread cubes, pear and apple slices, steamed carrots, broccoli or cauliflower, cornichons or baby pickles, grilled or broiled sliced sausage.
Along the way, I've learnt a few things:
1. Throw out the rusty fondue pots and fuel that have been sitting in your basement since the 1970's and invest in electric pots. Join up with a friend and buy some to share as you won't use them very often. My daughter and I share our pots, and we have 2 electric Cuisinart pots which are perfect for the oil. You end up with some cords around the table, but it just seems safer to me than messing with all that unpredictable fuel. Heat the oil in a big pot on the stove first, but make sure the pot is completely dry before you add the oil. Even the tiniest bit of moisture in a pot will cause the oil to sputter, and believe me that hurts! Use a candy thermometer and heat up the oil until it reaches about 180 to 190 Celsius (about 350 to 375 Fahrenheit).Turn your fondue pot on a few minutes before you add the oil so that the temperature of the oil doesn't fall, and then carefully pour it into the fondue pot. Using a heat-proof measuring cup works better than trying to pour it. Here's a link to a website that will answer all your fondue questions. http://www.bestfondue.com/index.html
2. The best pot for a cheese fondue is a heavy one, otherwise the cheese will burn. I ordered a Swissmar electric fondue pot with my airmiles and it's great. Here's the link to Amazon.com which sells the Swissmar version.
3. Kraft (are they still called Kraft?) caramels melted with about ¼ cup to ½ cup whipping cream makes the best dessert! You can buy the caramels in the bulk section of the big grocery stores. Freeze your caramels first, and unwrapping them becomes a lot easier. Find a stray person hanging around the kitchen and give this job to them. Bananas, pears, apples, marshmallows and pound cake make for a killer dessert.
4. A fondue forces you to slow down and savour each bite, so relax and enjoy the process.
5. Make sure you don't put a fork that you've just pulled out of the hot oil into your mouth. It's really hot!
6. Give everyone a small side dish to put their raw meat into so that you don't contaminate your plate. I've also bought a few small little condiment bowls at the dollar store, and 2 people can share a set so that the dipping sauces don't all run into each other on your plate. Double dipping will likely happen with this practice!

When you're shopping around for a mortgage, it makes sense to work with someone who understands the industry and market conditions. A mortgage adviser is that person; someone who acts an intermediary between you and the lender working on your behalf. In your search for the right mortgage adviser, we recommend you ask these 3 questions.
- 1. Are you a licensed adviser?
It's vital you check your adviser's qualifications and credentials to ensure they hold a credit licence or are a member of a finance association. While it may not necessarily guarantee a particular level of service, working with a adviser who is a member of a professional body means they must adhere to a code of ethics and that disciplinary processes can be followed when things go wrong.
You may also want to check how much experience your adviser has and the sort of lending they've been involved with previously, so do ask them how long they've been in the industry and the types of loan structures they're familiar with. As a further check, you may want to ask them to provide client testimonials.
- 2. How many lenders do you work with?
In order to provide you with the best deal, your adviser should have access to a large pool of lenders. Find out how many lenders they work with, so you know how much choice you have when it comes to comparing and choosing the right finance package.
It may also help to know how your adviser matches clients up with the right lender –your adviser should be able to assess your requirements and then demonstrate how they rate each lender to find the best fit for your needs.
- 3. How do you get paid?
While it may be a tough question to ask, it's still an important one. Most advisers don't charge the borrower, although some may charge a fee for their time. Advisers are generally paid a commission by the lender once the loan application is approved. They must disclose all payments and commissions they receive.
What's next?
Once you've decided which adviser to work with, your adviser should provide you with a checklist of documentation the lender will require to assess your application. Your adviser should remain in touch with you throughout the loan application process to ensure you understand your obligations and requirements throughout.
If you are considering working with an adviser, get in touch with Mortgage Express and we'll refer you to one of our local advisers. We have access to a wide panel of lenders and our team are experienced in finding the best deal to fit each of our client's unique requirements.

The number of Chinese immigrants in New York is set to outstrip those of immigrants that come from the Dominican Republic – the largest immigrant group in the city at present – a new report made by the Department of City Planning suggests. China has also been a major contributor to New York's record-breaking high of over three million immigrants back in 2011, having sent more legal immigrants than any other nation between the years of 2002 and 2011.
Demographic analysis of data from the American Community Survey from the US Census Bureau is presented in the Newest New Yorkers report, while the city planning website also features an interactive map that viewers can search through and make their own analysis of the geographic distribution of communities of immigrants.
"Having an accurate picture of where the foreign-born reside, and how they're doing with respect to their housing, education, employment, and economic status enables us to target support that helps immigrants establish themselves and participate in the diverse opportunities our city offers," says Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Bloomberg adds that the United States finally has the chance for Congress to enact real immigration reform, making the latest Newest New Yorkers report a valuable resource that continues to strengthen the reasons for reform to make the nation a beacon of opportunity capable of attracting the world's brightest minds.
The immigrant population in New York City has grown from 18% of the entire population back in 1970 to the current figure of 37% and effectively forms the third biggest city in the United States on its own.

From the desk of Lori Aufderhar, Summit's Director of Operations/Retirement Coach:
I recently opened a fortune cookie, and the message said, "Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone." Well, that really struck me. What have I been putting off? What's on my to-do list that I don't get to? The sewing projects I've collected? Going through the old photos and scrapbooking them? Sorting the recipes I've collected, so I can actually use the ones I intended? If I didn't get to them before I died, would it be the end of the world?
As we begin the New Year, think, "What's on my bucket list? Places I want to experience, people I want to see, things I want to do…Would I regret not going, not seeing them, not doing it?"
I know that I have no regrets visiting with my grandmother before she passed away last year. I am grateful we took the trip to the Netherlands last fall, where we learned about family origins. When I spend time creating great memories with my family, I have no regrets.
"What would I regret not having done?" Now that's the question! What is it for you?
We can do the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" all day long and it won't change past regrets. Just know that if "it shoulda, it woulda, and you coulda". We can't change the past, yet we can change the here and now, and make plans for the future.
What must you do before it's too late, while you still have your health and wealth? While you have your loved ones in your life (and age doesn't matter, life can take people from us no matter their age). Are you enjoying your friendships? Activities you love? Or are you putting things off? What can you do right now, today? I ask you to press pause in your life, determine what it is, decide you are willing, and do it. Enjoy every special memory you create. Let's start 2019 with no regrets.

A Highly Experienced Defiance Injury Lawyer Can Assist You
From car and motorcycle accidents to slip and falls and assaults, the Defiance personal injury attorneys at the law offices of Lafferty, Gallagher & Scott, LLC are experienced in defending injury victims in Ohio. If you have been hurt because someone else failed to act with a proper degree of care, we want to represent you in recovering the compensation you deserve.
Damages Recoverable in a Personal Injury Claim
After you are injured and are in the process of healing, one of the most pressing questions you will have is what types of compensation you may be able to recover – and how much compensation – if you pursue a personal injury claim. While the amount of damages that you are able to recover will depend upon the specifics of your case and the value of your losses, some of the most common recoverable damages types include:
- Healthcare and medical costs. The costs of medical treatment for your injury will likely be one of the biggest expenses that you incur. You should be compensated for all healthcare expenses related to your accident, present and future.
- Loss of earnings. If your injury forced you to miss work, or has prevented you from being able to return to work, you should be compensated for this. You can seek damage for lost wages and loss of earning capacity.
- Pain, suffering, and emotional anguish. Accidents often result in more than just economic losses; they cause a person to experience pain, suffering, and emotional anguish and psychological harm as well.
- Punitive or exemplary damages. A court may order a defendant in a personal injury suit to pay punitive, also known as exemplary, damages in the event that the defendant acted with malice or intent in causing the defendant harm.
What Do I Have to Prove?
In order to recover any of the damage types listed above, a plaintiff in a personal injury suit must prove that their injuries and losses would not have been incurred but for the negligence of the defendant. Negligence refers to the failure to exercise a reasonable degree of care that person or reasonable prudence would, and can include everything from violations of the law, like drinking and driving, to acts of irresponsibility, such as failing to clean up a spill in a reasonable amount of time.
