The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
(Summary taken from the inside book jacket) “The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it, no paper notices plastered on lampposts and billboards. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within these nocturnal black-and-white-striped tents awaits an utterly unique experience, a feast for the senses, where one can get lost in a maze of clouds, meander throughout a lush garden made of ice, stare in wonderment as the tattooed contortionist folds herself into a small glass box, and become deliciously tipsy from the scents of caramel and cinnamon that waft through the air. Welcome to Le Cirque des Reves. Beyond the smoke and mirrors, however, a fierce competition is under way–a contest between two young illusionists, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood to compete in a “game” to which they have been irrevocably bound by their mercurial masters. Unbeknownst to the players, this is a game in which only one can be left standing, and the circus is but the stage for a remarkable battle of imagination and will. As the circus travels around the world, the feats of magic gain fantastical new heights with every stop. The game is well under way and the lives of all those involved–the eccentric circus owner, the elusive contortionist, the mystical fortune-teller, and a pair of red-headed twins born backstage among them–are swept up in a wake of spells and charms. But when Celia discovers that Marco is her adversary, they begin to think of the game not as a competition but as a wonderful collaboration. With no knowledge of how the game must end, they innocently tumble headfirst into love. A deep, passionate, and magical love that makes the lights flicker and the room grow warm whenever they so much as brush hands. Their masters still pull the strings, however, and this unforeseen occurrence forces them to intervene with dangerous consequences, leaving the lives of everyone from the performers to the patrons hanging in the balance.”
Dreamy, fantastical, magical, and mysterious are just a few words I would use to describe this book. I definitely got caught up in the fantasy and enjoyed this book. Ms. Morgenstern’s character development is really good and I felt like I knew the characters very well. I especially liked Celia and Marco. I didn’t particularly like Hector or Alexander, but I loved the Burgess twins and Herr Thiesson. I also loved Poppet and Widget. I could not believe how Hector and Alexander treated their “children,” and it made me sick. I loved the role that each person played and thought it fit perfectly. I loved the circus and wish there was something like that for us today. I would love to see the wishing tree, the labyrinth, the cloud maze, and I would love to smell the smells and see the sparkling lights. I would also love to see the illusionist’s show. I don’t know if I would be a follower, but I’d for sure go if it came to my city. I felt so bad for Celia and Marco and hoped they could figure something out. I’d also really like to see that clock!
The flow of the book confused me sometimes and the timing was even more confusing. There were chapters that would go backwards in time. I had to go back to the beginning of chapters several times to make sure I knew where I was in the time frame. I thought it made the flow quite choppy and a little confusing. There was some language in this book, and there is an “intimate” scene. There is also the death of a character.
Overall, I did enjoy the book and would recommend it with the previous warnings. It is very different and fun, with a hint of mystery and magic.
Rating: PG-13+ (Language, “physical intimacy,” and the death of a character)
Recommendation: 18 years-old and up. As always, I recommend that parents read it first to make sure it is appropriate for their child. Each child is different and has different tolerance levels.

Bongbong Marcos qualified to be elected to office – SC
MANILA, Philippines — The “gods of Padre Faura” have cleared the way for Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s inauguration as the 17th president of the Philippines.
Voting 13-0 with two abstentions, the Supreme Court threw out the legal challenges to Marcos Jr.’s presidential candidacy, delivering a blow to the victims of rights violations during the regime of his father, the late deposed dictator Ferdinand Marcos.
The high court issued the decision during its weekly en banc session on Tuesday, or two days before Marcos Jr. is sworn in. Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo has accepted the invitation to administer the president-elect’s oath of office in a ceremony at the National Museum.
The justices upheld the resolution of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) dismissing two petitions separately filed by martial law survivors and rights activists seeking Marcos Jr.’s disqualification on the basis of his tax evasion conviction in 1995.
Reacting to the tribunal’s vote, playwright-activist Bonifacio Ilagan said resistance to what he called the erosion of law in the country would continue.
Ilagan, who heads the Campaign Against the Return of the Marcoses and Martial Law, one of the petitioners, said he and his colleagues were not “surprised that the high court has opted to swim with the tide of acquiescence to a Marcos rehabilitation, notwithstanding all the historical distortions and false narratives that made the dictator’s son delude the people.”
Still, Ilagan said, it was “difficult to comprehend that the tribunal decided on merit that Marcos Jr. did not disobey the law by wilfully not paying taxes, did not commit moral turpitude, and could go scot-free, being now above the law.”
House Assistant Minority Leader and ACT Teachers Rep. France Castro told the Inquirer that despite the “not surprising” decision, “we still hope that the Supreme Court would uphold its independence and initiative, especially on issues and cases involving human rights, welfare of consumers, and our country’s sovereignty.”
In a statement released by its Public Information Office (PIO), the Supreme Court said “the exercise of its power to decide the present controversy led [it] to no other conclusion but that respondent Marcos Jr. is qualified to run for and be elected to public office.”
“Likewise, his COC (certificate of candidacy), being valid and in accord with the pertinent law, was rightfully upheld by the Comelec,” it said.
The high court did not provide a copy of the decision written by Associate Justice Rodil Zalameda.

I had started reading Janet Evanovich books when they were recommended from a friend, and I'm totally addicted. The great thing is that you can read any one in the series she started and still know what's happening. You don't have to read them in order, although it gives you more incite that way. Also at the end of each book she doesn't leave you hanging so you don't have to continue on with the series. I love the characters in the book and each of the characters quarkey personalities. Her books are funny and serious and takes on a new look of seeing yourself hitting rock bottom and trying to make yourself and everyone believe that you can make it in being a bounty hunter. I'm now on book three and loving every minuet of it. I cant wait to read more.
on April 2, 2002
I've already written reviews for these three books individually so I wont repeat myself here....much. Suffice it to say that if you havent read any of the Stephanie Plum books but would like to start, this collection is perfect for you.
In short, ONE FOR THE MONEY & THREE TO GET DEADLY are wonderfully hilarious. The second book, TWO FOR THE DOUGH, is okay but falls short in its humour and action content.
The Stephanie Plum series is in its eight book now and probably will last another eight. Read this collection of the first three books that started the craze.
Before the series goes stale.
on August 3, 2003
I kept hearing about Janet Evanovich everywhere. On a soap opera message board, book club flyers, talk shows, and everytime I was in a book store, one of her books was on display up front. When I saw the "Three Plums In One" book, I decided to get it and see what all the fuss was about.
Some internet friends said, read the first one and you'll be hooked. I was laughing out loud from the first chapter! Everyone has a somewhat dysfunctional family, and the Plums are no exception. They are a wide variety of personalities and you can't help but be drawn into it. What mess will Stephanie be in next? What will Grandma do/say next? What job will Mom suggest to Stephanie next?
Stephanie tries to just do this first job to help her make rent in a tight spot, but soon it snowballs into taking another case while she works on the first that was harder than she thought. Morelli and Ranger keep popping up to help, or hinder, her efforts, and keep things interesting! This book is a very easy read, and is HARD to put down!! I was laughing so much that my Mom said she wanted to read it after me, she read ALL 3 in a week!! I wasn't that fast, but it kept me busy during the LONG car ride on vacation. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery/suspense or police type books. I am going to read the others ASAP!!
on March 21, 2002
_One for the Money_:
The first book I read by Janet Evanovich was _Hot Six_, in which I fell in love with all of the characters, and vowed to read the entire series. The first book in that series, _One for the Money_, didn't disappoint.
Stephanie Plum is someone that nearly any woman can easily relate to, thanks to Evanovich's singular ability to make her characters incredibly human. On nearly every page, there is something to make the reader chuckle in appreciation and self-recognition, and the belly laughs are liberally sprinkled in as well. The wit and humor aren't the only draws to this book, as they were with Dave Barry's _Big Trouble_; Evanovich has a good plot, and she develops it well, cultivating suspense and curiosity throughout the story.
As Plum learns How to Be a Bounty Hunter while chasing after a cop charged with murder, she develops very believable relationships with her partner, (Ranger,) the cop she's chasing, (Morelli,) and sundry other people throughout the book. We follow her as she's chased by a sociopathic champion boxer, lives through really bad financial times, rummages for the keys to the car she's "comandeered" from Morelli after he throws them into a
dumpster, deals with her overly-protective mother, and suffers through numerous embarrassing situations that rarely feel too contrived.
A thoroughly enjoyable and quick read that'll keep you turning the pages. Evanovich writes the way I truly wish I could, and I look forward to the rest of the series.
_Two for the Dough_:
Sadly, _Two for the Dough_ lacked the sparkle of the first story in this book others. The belly-laughs were largely missing, as was a compelling plot. The characters are not as lively, and it felt like the whole thing was forced rather than enthusiastically and easily written.
Grandma Mazur plays a larger role in this book, and is generally enjoyable, but the idiosyncracies that were so entertaining in the first book are overdone and feel contrived here. The chemistry between Morelli and Stephanie doesn't sizzle as convincingly in _Two for the Dough_, and Ranger is almost entirely absent.
This book was fairly disappointing, and I found myself wishing it would end much sooner than it actually did. Still, I have high hopes for the remainder of the Evanovich books, though, because she has incredible talent. I just think _Two for the Dough_ was a bit rushed and that she didn't have a lot of passion for it. Hopefully, her spark and humor will return in _Three to Get Deadly_.
_Three to Get Deadly_:
Thankfully, halfway through _Three to Get Deadly_, Evanovich once again found her fantastic wit and seems to regain her footing in the characters. Stephanie's self-deprecating humor and bumbling about learning to be a bounty hunter buoys the luke-warm plot during the first half of the book; there are some laugh-out-loud moments, and a myriad of snorts and chuckles. I really enjoy the character of Stephanie - I see much of myself in her, and a lot of the laughter was from self-recognition in her assorted neuroses and thought processes. The development of Lula's character was a very nice addition to the story as well.
One thing which disgruntled me during the first half of the book was the almost total lack of the spark that Stephanie had in the first two books; her character virtually crackled with life previously, but here it feels more like plodding until the second half of the story. Additionally, in the first two, she was 5'7" and a basically unapologetic 145 pounds - sturdy, and chuckling at how she was really "not fragile." In _Three to Get Deadly_,
she is 125 pounds and fretting about her weight. 5'7" and 125 pounds is not a weight to fret about! Alas. Pleasantly, though, Ranger is much more a part of this story than he was in the second book, and the tension between Stephanie and Morelli picks up steam again in the last quarter of the story.
I'm hoping Evanovich will continue the tradition of vivid characters who continually surprise the reader in the
other books in the series. Grandma Mazur thankfully drops back into the role where she adds a wonderful element to the story, but isn't a driving part of the plot.
I'm glad there are many more already written, so I don't have to wait. If only Patricia Cornwell and JaneT Evanovich could kind of merge into one fabulous writer, we'd have Evanovich's tremendous sense of humor and character, with Cornwell's ability to write a suitably complex and interesting crime plot.
If you're new to Evanovich, _Three Plums in One_ will definitely give you a taste of her style, to let you know if you'll enjoy the series or not. Having the first three volumes compiled together in one handy volume is a nice way to save bookshelf space, too.
If you haven't read the first book in this series, I really recommend picking it up to learn how Stephanie gets into the whole bounty hunter business. Skipping the second book wouldn't leave much of a gap, as important points are mentioned in _Three to Get Deadly_. _Three_ is worth the time to read, though, and I'm looking forward to _Four to Score_.

In 'Three Plums in One' you get the first three books in the Stephanie Plum series, 'One for the Money', 'Two for the Dough' and 'Three to Get Deadly'. Evanovich has created one of the most endearing, hilarious and completely entertaining characters to populate any genre of fiction you could hope to read in your lifetime.
Stephanie Plum is an out-of-work lingerie buyer who falls into bounty hunting through a combination of a family acquaintance and a pressing need for food, shelter and neon shades of makeup. When you think of a Bounty Hunter you think of a smart, cunning, confident law-enforcement type, but after you meet her, you will think "Oxymoron" whenever you hear the phrase "Stephanie Plum, Bounty Hunter."
Stephanie bungles her way through several fugitive apprehensions, as well as a rocky, quasi-romantic relationship, all the while giving us all the hilarious details in her frank, rambling narrative. Joe Morelli, a Trenton, New Jersey vice cop, plays Tracy to Stephanie's Hepburn, and Evanovich will have you in tears with her talent for writing the sardonic and sarcastic dialogue that takes place between these two.
Each episode has an underlying mystery to solve, but soon after you start reading you will discover that no matter what Stephanie is describing in her narrative, you would happily read along, much in the same way you would listening to a master storyteller describe a root canal.
'Three Plums in One' is a fast, sometimes suspenseful and often (very often) hilarious read. The three novels run together seamlessly, creating a sense of continuity that will have you thinking it was written as one novel, and then divided.
Read this book now. You will not be sorry. And, just for fun, count the cars.
on August 11, 2002
This has to be the most enjoyable book I have read this summer. I had never read Evanovich before. I came across this book while strolling through a "Message Board" from Kelly Rippa's book club (Regis and Kelly Show). Someone had mentioned it and I'm so glad that I picked it up.
In all three books there are colorful chartacters starting with Joe Morrelli, Ranger, Grandma Mazur and Lula. Stephanie Plum the main chartacter is a delight to follow as she takes on a new job as a bounty hunter.
I can't say that the series is particularly suspenseful OR that it is not predictable BUT I can promise that you will find yourself pulled in ... and along for the ride. In all three books I found myself laughing out loud ... even in the middle of the night ...and wishing there was someone I could share the storyline with. If you like a fast read, good writing and a lot of laughs ... This is the book for you.
on January 1, 2003
This series introduces you to the world of Stephanie Plum, how she becomes a bounty hunter,and her family. You have to be pretty desperate to start a dangerous career in which you have no experience but her resiliency and attitude gets her through it. There were times my family heard me laughing out loud at some of the funny portions of the stories. The characters are believable and are introduced into the stories to complete the plot but many of the characters reappear in all of the stories. I liked Ranger, Joe Morelli, and Grandma Mazure. There is adventure, humor, and sexual tension that really make these stories hard to put down. I read all three of these stories in one weekend and it left me wanting more.
on May 5, 2004
My sister passed this book to me about two months ago, and I just finally got around to it last week. (You know the drill, I had other books to read, ones that I thought were better than this one.) Well I finished the book in less than five days! I just couldn't put it down. I found myself reading until dawn and even then was tempted to call in sick to work to keep reading!
This series was both laugh out loud funny and suspenseful. The characters that Janet Evanovich has put together are so colorful! I don't know how she came up with them, but it makes her a pure genius in my mind.
If you haven't read this series yet, you are really missing out!
on December 31, 2001
I just finished Three Plums in One - what a great book! I'm surprised I haven't read this series before now as I have read all of Sue Grafton's. I must say this is one of the very few books that has made be laugh out loud - my 7 yr old son said "Mom, what's so funny?" The image in my mind of Stephanie's grandmother just makes my laugh - imagine her dressed in Doc Martins, flannel shirt, and jeans! I also like the scene in the third book when Lulu and Stephanie are chasing Mo with a dead body on top of his car and if flys off onto Lulu's hood!! I have just bought all the remaining books in the series and can't wait to start reading!!
on October 21, 2003
A few weeks ago, I received a small book in my Amazon order that introduced me to Stephanie Plum. I was intrigued so I ordered the series 1-9. I was not disappointed, to say the least. I am just finishing Book 5.
They are light, easy to read books with enough mystery to hook you and hold you to the very end. It's comical the way Stephanie gets into and out of trouble, both in her job as Bounty Hunter and with the men in her life. Equally comical is her family, especially Grandma Mazur. It's amazing how much trouble one senior citizen can cause.
I highly recommend the books. Can't wait for the next book to come out.

Lloyd’s ILS growth plans will be hampered without tax rule changes
The ILS market has expressed concerns that the tax treatment of UK vehicles could derails efforts from Lloyd's outlined in Blueprint One to establish itself as a new centre for the alternative market.
ILS market participants told Trading Risk that the tax rules would need to be clarified for Lloyd's ambitions to be achieved.
While the UK ILS regime offers tax exemptions to ILS special-purpose vehicles, syndicates and managing agents that are not using such vehicles may be subject to tax.
“If I am a tax-exempt investor and these vehicles are not tax-exempt why would I want to use these when I can do it in Bermuda, Cayman, Guernsey or London outside of Lloyd’s?” questions Horseshoe CEO Andre Perez.
However, Leadenhall CEO Luca Albertini said consideration of taxation levels would be set against other costs.
“Tax would be an additional cost and would be only justifiable if I could get in return more leverage or fewer other frictional costs.”
But even if leverage were available, not everyone would be interested in a high-octane play, he noted.
“The way I manage many things is I never have a single provider. There is always a merit to have more than one solution because any jurisdiction – including Bermuda’s – can tomorrow turn out to be very difficult,” Albertini added.
Lloyd’s has said it will consider using both the UK’s ILS rules and other structures.
“Lloyd’s is exploring which of the several potential end-state structures for ILS are most attractive to our market and to investors, recognising that there may be more than one ‘right’ answer,” a spokesperson said.
“Our aim is to produce a clear roadmap setting out a structure that works and which Lloyd’s will support with standardised documentation, disclosures and reporting to make investing at Lloyd’s through ILS funds as clear and straightforward as possible.
“We will talk to regulators and tax authorities if that proves necessary to enable us to deliver a structure that works and is attractive to investors.”
It is not yet known what regulatory approvals will be required for Lloyd’s ILS structures, and in particular whether the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) will have oversight as it does over UK ILS instruments.
“While the PRA is making progress, [achieving approval] is still a long and arduous process. If it’s going to be the same regulatory process [at Lloyd’s] that’s not going to be to the platform’s advantage,” Perez explained.
The Corporation will also need to weigh up the imperative to deliver flexibility amid plans to help syndicates offer ILS structures using Corporation-standard documentation.
This was one of the immediate priorities for a “capital platform” under its blueprint targets.
There is an underlying tension between standardised documents and the need for flexibility that particular investors require, Willkie Farr partner Joe Ferraro told Trading Risk.
“Standardised documentation can be extremely useful in making the capital-raising regime efficient, but at the same time it has to be flexible enough to acknowledge the different ways in which investors are accustomed to putting capital into a vehicle,” he added.
“Investors need to be able to negotiate differentiated investment terms in accordance either with what they are accustomed to or what their own investment criteria requires.”
Some ILS participants said they have not been able to use the protected cell company (PCC) structure needed to write multiple collateralised deals under a single umbrella under the UK’s ILS regime because of the PRA’s stance.
However, Brit’s Sussex Capital used the structure last year and Beazley registered a PCC: Fuchsia Capital.
There is hope a PCC-type structure can exist within the Lloyd’s framework and so far the Corporation is thought to be listening.

Through this long term, evergreen agreement, One World Pharma has agreed to provide Prieto with seeds of its non-psychoactive cannabis strains, which are in the registration procedure for the national register of commercial cultivars of the Instituto Colombiano Agropecuario (ICA).

Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., said while House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and President Donald Trump often had a contentious relationship, he and Ryan were "very productive."
"That's been a little bit of a difficult marriage from the beginning," Thune told Fox News' "America's Newsroom" on Wednesday.
"They're very different in terms of temperament and character, but he is somebody who I think recognized that President Trump presented an opportunity to get some things on the agenda done and frankly, they have been," Thune said.
"I think it's been very productive in this first year of President Trump's presidency working with Speaker Ryan and our leadership here on Capitol Hill, and I think there's a real record of accomplishment," Thune said in the interview.
"You have to look at the record and what they've been able to get done together, but in terms of their personalities, they're very different people."

Low Carbohydrate High-Fat Diets and Sports Performance
Over the past 60 years, carbohydrates have earned a reputation as the most important energy substrate for exercise. The research was primarily focused on the role of glycogen stores in the muscle and liver and on the optimisation of ingested carbohydrate during exercise. An outcome of this era of research is that a carbohydrate-rich diet is usually recommended for athletes and considered an essential component of good exercise performances. In athletes following such a diet, glucose is the primary substrate for oxidative energy production during exercise and fat plays a secondary role. However, it is possible for fat to become the primary substrate for oxidative metabolism, seemingly without compromising exercise performance. This is achieved by following a low carbohydrate high fat (LCHF) diet.
Fat Adaptation and Performance
Fat adaptation first appeared in the literature when Phinney et al (1983) found that five elite endurance-trained cyclists were able to maintain exercise performance after 28 days on a diet that contained virtually zero carbohydrate. The study had many limitations but provided the first indication that a high-carbohydrate approach may not be the only available option for endurance athletes.
Over the following decades, many attempts were made to realise the potential advantage that an increased fat oxidation capacity could theoretically provide. A wide variety of trials have seen participants following LCHF diets for anything from 1 meal to 6 weeks; different performance measures were used such as time to exhaustion, time trials and sprint power; and in many cases, several days of LCHF eating was combined with high carbohydrate loading days. In the majority of these trials, there was very little difference in performance outcomes between LCHF and control athletes, despite the enormous differences in whole body metabolism. An advantage of increased fat oxidation rates could not be found. If anything, this area of research demonstrates the remarkable ability of metabolically healthy humans to effectively utilise whatever substrate is available. For a comprehensive review of fat adaptation and exercise performance see Burke (2015).
The literature may be inconclusive but there are still many athletes (competitive and recreational) who follow a LCHF diet as their personal preference and claim that their exercise performance has improved or at least not changed. Two recent studies (unfortunately too recent to be included in Burke’s review) investigated and described competitive endurance athletes who had self-selected a LCHF diet[4,5]. They had been following the diet for 9 to 24 months, which makes them the most well-adapted athletes studied to date. Although the processes and mechanisms which occur in athletes after following a LCHF diet for the long-term are not well studied, it does seem that a longer adaptation period does confer benefits. The athletes in these studies had average fat oxidation rates three times greater than controls at exercise intensities of 65 to 75% VO2max (~1.2 g/min versus ~0.4 g/min). Some individuals were measured as being able to oxidise fat at ~1.8 g/min, which was previously unheard of in the literature. Maximal fat oxidation rates also occurred at higher exercise intensities in the adapted LCHF athletes than the controls (70% VO2max compared to 55% VO2max). Fat is, therefore, a viable energy substrate for these athletes at meaningful exercise intensities.
Another key feature which appears to be important for successful fat adaptation is nutritionally induced ketosis, whereby blood ketone concentrations rise from 0 mmol/l up to between 0.5 and 4.0 mmol/l. Ketones are produced from fatty acids and they provide the majority of energy to the central nervous system after a strict LCHF diet. The central nervous system would otherwise rely entirely on glucose. Ketones are therefore important for successful fat adaptation since they facilitate a drastic reduction in the essential glucose requirements of the body.
Who Can Benefit?
Ultra-endurance athletes (at all levels) may be the most obvious group that could find fat adaptation useful. The longer the duration and lower the intensity the more likely it is that a clear benefit could be seen. The major concern for fat adaptation is that it compromises the athlete’s capacity for high-intensity exercise (glycolytic/lactate energy system). We know that LCHF athletes can sprint and many habitual LCHF athletes incorporate high-intensity intervals into their training. However, the prevailing perception is that high-intensity performance suffers to some extent. Performance trials in exercise modes that heavily utilise the glycolytic/lactate energy system are required to determine the extent to which high-intensity exercise suffers in well adapted LCHF athletes (if at all).
Since elite-level endurance racing often requires periods of very high intensities rather than a constant steady-state effort, high carbohydrate intake during training and racing may be very important at this level of the sport. For the majority of healthy amateur athletes (competitive and recreational), sporting performance would probably be similar on a wide variety of diets, including LCHF. Health considerations and personal preference are therefore important considerations when selecting a diet. However, there are indications that a LCHF diet may provide some benefits to athletes that: frequently hit the wall during exercise; experience reactive hypoglycaemia; suffer gastro-intestinal problems when ingesting high volumes of carbohydrate during exercise, and experience large fluctuations in weight depending on the stage of the season.
Additionally, there are populations whose sporting performances may benefit from fat adaptation primarily due to changes in health rather than due to improvements in fuelling strategies. For example, the LCHF diet seems particularly effective in managing diabetes and related conditions. There are also many sporting codes other than endurance sport where LCHF diets could potentially be applied. Long duration, low-intensity sports such as golf and cricket seem like good candidates, as do sports where weight control is essential, such as gymnastics and horse racing (jockeys).
There is plenty of scope for continued research in this area and hopefully the full potential (or lack thereof) of fat adaptation as a tool for the elite as well as recreational athletes across many different sporting codes will be investigated.

I've been through many tools in that time and I rarely buy new. So many begin this hobby with a zillion tools but never use them. They wait about two years and sell. The best thing is the price but I also like the fact when she looks for my list items she finds so many other things that were future list items. I won't bore with good deal stories but I have many.
The second big tool you need is a saw. There are many types of saws, and this can be the trickiest part of setting up a shop on a budget. As a beginner, you'll likely be using woodworking books, magazines and websites for instruction and inspiration. Unfortunately, most of these sources consider a table saw a beginner tool. For those of us on a budget, or with little space, a table saw may not be an option. They cost several hundred dollars to start, and take up several square feet of floor space. Instead, look for a good circular saw that allows you to adjust the depth and angle of cut. It's also nice to have a laser to help guide the cuts. You can get a decent circular saw for around $100.
Whatever your dream for a rustic look, you are sure to find something in this collection that will help you along. Many of these projects are so easy to do and you can complete them in less than a day. Some make wonderful gifts as well so if you know someone else who just loves the country, rustic look, make them something to brighten their own décor. The projects use all sorts of materials, many of which are really inexpensive or even cheap in some cases.
Not many YouTube woodworking channels are run by guys who also happen to have PhD’s in medicinal chemistry, but this one is. Brian Grella’s channel offers a mix between more atmospheric videos that aren’t heavy on explanations (as the one shown above), and ones that are firmly in how-to territory, like this one for making a beautiful wooden bowl using nothing but a router and a drill press (no lathe required):
My name is Marc Spagnuolo and welcome to my channel. I am a podcaster, video producer, author, and woodworking enthusiast. I have contributed articles and video content to FineWoodworking.com, Popular Woodworking Magazine and WOOD Magazine. Producing the Wood Whisperer is a great way for me to combine four of my passions: woodworking, technology, education, and humor. I believe that even the most complicated woodworking project is just a series of steps. My goal with this channel is to show you the tools and techniques you need to perform those steps.

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. — This has been one of those weeks I would love to rewind and start over. Everyone has them, I know.
Three times since last Monday I’ve had news of the death of someone I loved; first my niece, then my friend, and then my cousin. I’ve really not had my mind on this column for the past few days. But when I thought of my friend, Nellie Taylor, of her connection to Laurel County, her long and productive life, it seemed that this column would be a good place to recognize her outstanding qualities.
Nellie was born on March 26, 1917, in a little log cabin on the sandy bottom along Laurel River in southeastern Laurel County. She was a writer who wrote about “the land and the people who lived in the Laurel River basin long before the lake water came in and swallowed it all up.”
Nellie married at 15, bore four children, and, as it turned out, reared her children alone. She moved the family to Detroit during WWII and made a life for them there, but she returned to Laurel County whenever she could. It was, and would always be, her home.
After her children were grown and Nellie had retired from her job in Detroit, she began to write of her past. As her editor, I became acquainted with her history and of how it fit into the history of Laurel County. In “Dandelions in the Turnip Patch,” she wrote of living just across Laurel River from Whitley County when there was no Laurel Lake, of who her neighbors were, of the rural schools and churches she attended. In “Land Under the Lake,” she tells of when Laurel Lake was built and the changes it brought to her old stomping ground. These books tell lovingly of a time long forgotten by many and totally unknown by many more. They tell a part of Laurel County’s history in the voice of one who lived it.

Photo of Ravi Coltrane and Joe Lovano by Katheryn Laible
Dr. Thomas and I witnessed our first indoor music performance in over two years, and boy was it – WOW!
We Friends of the John and Alice Coltrane Home in Dix Hills gathered with other audiophiles for a very special event at the Southampton Arts Center held in collaboration with the Hamptons Jazz Fest. It began with music historian Ashley Kahn speaking with Ravi and Michelle Coltrane about the home and their parents’ legacy, and climaxed with a stellar performance by Ravi Coltrane and his trio, saxophonist Joe Lovano and harpist Brandee Younger.
There was much to celebrate as there was excellent news last September. It was a delight to receive this:
I wanted to let you know that the Mellon Foundation has just announced that they have awarded a $1,000,000 grant for the Coltrane Home in Dix Hills !!!
Here is the link. The money will be used for the restoration of the home and also to hire an Executive Director.
On behalf of the Coltrane Family and the Board of Directors, I would like to thank you for your support and hard work over the years. So many people, from all over the world, have helped us reach this major accomplishment.
Thank you again and please visit our new website www.thecoltranehome.org where you can sign up for more information.
– Steve Fulgoni. (John & Alice Coltrane Home Board President)
As he heralded this great news, another longtime supporter, musician Premik Russell Tubbs, chimed about a related unearthed treasure, sharing this Seattle Times piece: “How John Coltrane’s Seattle recording of ‘A Love Supreme’ was found, thanks to 2 local saxophonists.”
Recently released by Impulse! Records, the article notes that “this is one of only two known live recordings of Coltrane’s magnificent, spiritually inspired suite,” which Coltrane wrote in the Dix Hills home!


While most students spent the weeks before exams at the library, Calvin Thomas was in Detroit’s Fox Theatre performing the Christmas favorite “The Nutcracker” twice a day. The freshman began dancing at 7 years old in his native Maysville, Ky.
“I actually didn’t like ballet in the beginning, but I decided to take a ballet class because it makes you stronger in other things, like gymnastics and other dance forms,” he says. “So I just decided to try it, didn’t really like it and just stuck it out, and I developed a love for it after that.”
At age 14, Thomas enrolled in the five-week summer program at the Otto M. Budig Academy of Cincinnati Ballet. “We just trained all day in different dance forms with the base being ballet,” he says.
Thomas liked it so much that in the fall he started to commute the hour and 15 minutes from Maysville three or four days a week after school. Eventually, he started coming every day, and often wouldn’t get home until 11:00 p.m. Thomas also supplemented his dance training in the Boston Ballet’s summer dance program and at the School of American Ballet in New York.
This past year, the Cincinnati Ballet offered him a paid entry-level position, which he balances with a full load of evening classes. He admits that he often catches up on homework at night, studies a lot when he’s on tour and e-mails papers to professors from the road.
“I applied to Xavier because I knew it was close to the Ballet, and I felt it was important to get started on education because a lot of people think that you either have to go to school or you have to be a ballet dancer, and I wanted to try both,” Thomas says. “I’m thankful for it now because I thought it was going to be hard—like I was going to be completely swamped and overwhelmed and stressed, but it’s actually not as bad as I thought it would be.”


Coco Star is the artist who brought the iconic vocal ‘I Need A Miracle’ to the world.
This debut single hit the #1 spot on UK Dance charts and entered the official UK top 40 for the first time in 1997.
By April 2000 Coco’s ‘I Need A Miracle’ was supercharged to create a global monster hit following an underground mash-up “Coco vs Fragma”. ‘I Need A Miracle’ and ‘Toca Me’ spliced together became the #1 smash hit ‘Toca’s Miracle’. Selling well over 185 000 copies in its first week and holding its own as the UK’s #1 for just shy of three weeks “I Need a Miracle” is a true evergreen classic.
With her huge gospel voice quickly gaining attention, Coco Star went on to be nominated for the Dancestar Awards held in London. She also landed the Dance International PA of the Year Award, an acknowledgement of live performance internationally thanks to the support of venues and promoters worldwide. Further success saw Coco Star awarded a BPI Gold and Platinum Disks for sales of almost a million copies of Coco Vs Fragma. As a solo artist, Coco’s roots in gospel, soul and R&B saw her vocals grace recordings by East 17, Drum & Bass acts Sublove and Photek.
As a talented songwriter Coco wrote ‘It Ain’t Enough’, a UK Garage two-step track which is featured on the Artful Dodgers’ album It’s All About The Stragglers, which later hit #20 on the UK official Charts. For more than a decade she has continued to perform and write music which appears on famous compilations such as the Now! Series and the legendary Ministry of Sound Annuals.
Her current single is a monumental reworking of her original hit “Coco – I Need a Miracle”. Enhanced with the magical talents of world famous producers, Fedde le Grand and fellow Dutchman Dannic, “Coco’s Miracle”is a true ‘Back to the Future’ dance hit, blending the original iconic vocal with today’s uplifting synths and beats.

When it comes to Saudi Arabia, the merchandise that has become a good model for us to put themselves in the freight stage.. To solve the mystery of the time a team of scientists from the Center for Complex Physical Physics in IBS To the world of quantum physicists.
The team was inspired by a 2012 study, which proposed the “battery concept,” a quantum mechanical system that acts as an energy storage device.
For the study of 2021 and many other studies that use quantum resources for example, quantum batteries can offer multiple advantages over their conventional counterparts, transfer at the thenextweb site.
True love, true love, true love.
The source of this quantum acceleration lies in the use of “entanglement processes,” in which battery cells are collectively charged as a whole. In turn, the cells of each other are charged, which slows down the whole process.
The benefit of this bulk shipping is measured by the “quantitative charging advantage”“.
research team sought IBS Fossil increase charging speed.
Through a series of theoretical experiments, the scientists found that the new generation, also known as the “global operations protocol”, can achieve the quadrature gradient of the charging speed..
This means that the larger the batteries, the faster the charging time, unlike conventional batteries, the higher the number of battery cells, the longer the charging time.
Putting it in numbers, we moved from one cell in exposure value To 10 cells, mail organization.
Interested for battery exposure value With a typical 200-cell, quantum charging can lead to a charging speed up to 200 times faster than conventional batteries.
Based on this reference exposure value At home from 10 hours to three minutes. At a high speed speed, charging times drop from half an hour to a few seconds.
The results appear in a FAQ, and that quantum technologies go back to years of research before they are presented as a commercial alternative to green energy.

After much anticipation and speculation, it’s been confirmed that Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) is currently in development. However, fans of the series have been left wondering why the game is taking so long to be released.
Table of Contents
According to inside sources, the development of GTA 6 has been a challenging process, as the team behind the game is aiming to create an even more immersive and complex world than ever before. This means that the team has had to put in a significant amount of time and effort to make the game as polished and impressive as possible.
GTA 6 Development Challenges
Another factor that is likely contributing to the lengthy development time is the COVID-19 pandemic, which has impacted the gaming industry as a whole. Many studios have had to adjust to remote work, and the development of GTA 6 has likely been affected by this as well.
Rockstar Games, the studio behind the Grand Theft Auto franchise, has always been known for taking their time with game development in order to ensure quality. This approach has clearly paid off in the past, as the Grand Theft Auto series is widely regarded as one of the best gaming franchises of all time.
While it’s understandable that fans are eager to get their hands on the next installment in the series, it’s important to remember that good things come to those who wait. With Rockstar Games’ dedication to quality and the ongoing challenges of the pandemic, it’s likely that GTA 6 will be worth the wait.
Rumored release dates for GTA 6
Unfortunately, there is no official release date for GTA 6 yet. The developers at Rockstar Games have remained tight-lipped about the game’s development and release. However, there have been various rumors and speculations surrounding the release date.
Some rumors suggest that the game will be released in 2024, while others speculate that it may not be released until 2025. It’s important to note that these are just rumors and nothing has been confirmed by the developers. As fans eagerly await any official news about the game, all we can do is keep an eye out for any updates from Rockstar Games.
Here are some most asked questions about Grand Theft Auto VI:
When will GTA 6 be released?
There is currently no official release date for GTA 6. Rumors and speculations have been circulating for years, but Rockstar Games has remained tight-lipped about any details related to the game’s release date. Some rumors suggest that it could be released in 2024 or 2025, but these are just speculations and should be taken with a grain of salt.
Where will GTA 6 be set?
The setting for GTA 6 is another detail that Rockstar Games has not officially confirmed. However, rumors suggest that the game could be set in Vice City, a fictional city based on Miami, or in a new location like South America. Some leaks also suggest that the game could have multiple settings, which would be a first for the franchise.
Will GTA 6 be single player or multiplayer?
It is highly likely that GTA 6 will have both single player and multiplayer modes. The previous games in the series have included both, and it’s unlikely that Rockstar Games would abandon either of these modes for the next installment. However, the details of how these modes will be implemented are unknown at this point.
What platforms will GTA 6 be released on?
Again, there has been no official confirmation about what platforms GTA 6 will be released on. However, it is safe to assume that it will be released on the next-gen consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, as well as on PC. It’s possible that it could also be released on the current-gen consoles, but this is just speculation.
What will the gameplay be like in GTA 6?
Rockstar Games has not revealed any details about the gameplay in GTA 6. However, it is expected to be similar to previous games in the series, with a focus on open-world exploration, mission-based gameplay, and a variety of vehicles and weapons to use. It’s also possible that the game could introduce new gameplay mechanics or features, but again, nothing has been confirmed.
Will GTA 6 be available on PC?
Rockstar Games has not officially confirmed which platforms GTA 6 will be available on. However, it is likely that it will be released on PC as well as current and next-generation consoles.
Will GTA 6 have a single player mode?
While there has been no official confirmation, it is expected that GTA 6 will have a single player mode. The previous installments in the series have all had a single player campaign, and it is unlikely that Rockstar would abandon this format.
Will GTA 6 have online multiplayer?
Yes, it is almost certain that GTA 6 will have an online multiplayer mode. GTA 5’s online component, GTA Online, has been incredibly popular and profitable for Rockstar, so it is likely that they will continue to focus on this aspect of the game.
Will GTA 6 be set in a new location?
There have been rumors that GTA 6 will be set in Vice City, which was the location of the second game in the series as well as the fourth installment, GTA: Vice City. However, if that happened the game will failed because there is already remake of Vice City map in GTA Trilogy, but there has been no official confirmation of this.
Will GTA 6 have a larger map than previous games?
It is likely that GTA 6 will have a larger map than previous games in the series. With the increased power of current and next-generation consoles, Rockstar will have more resources to create a more expansive game world. However, this has not been confirmed by the developer.
Overall, there is still a lot of mystery surrounding GTA 6, but fans of the series are eagerly anticipating any news or updates about the game. Until then, we’ll just have to wait and see what Rockstar Games has in store for us.

Have you ever felt as if you just can’t write?
Have a look at this infographic filled with helpful tips to get you back on track.
Source for Image
Do you have any advice for a young writer? I really like writing and want to keep doing it, but I don't think my work is any good. Any advice?
I guess you could call this a pep talk.
Being a young writer is not a burden or a bad thing; we all start as young, inexperienced writers and grow. You’ve gotta just write and keep writing and experimenting with different plots and styles until you find the one that fits for you- the style that is yours. The only way to grow is to practice and the only way to practice with writing is to write. There’s no secret formula that you can learn and BAM, you’re a good writer. You become a writer when you pick up a pencil, a good writer when you learn rules and methods, and a great writer when your story comes alive.
Just keep practicing and you’ll do great :). Practice can include short story prompts, putting yourself out of your element/comfort zone, etc.
If followers have any suggestions, please do reply!
Hey, I have real trouble finishing any of my NaNo novels outside of November, I just can't seem to get down to it. Also, I have two different endings for my latest novel but I can't decide between the cliché 'I love her so much!' suicide or a survivor guilt ending, where one of the MCs inadvertently ends up killing another character. That's badly explained but yeah. Help?
As for deciding on an ending, honestly for the first draft I would say just pick one and write it. And if it ends up not working, try the other one. Also, there’s no rule that says you have to go through with an ending as originally planned. Who knows, once you start writing, you may even discover a different alternative.
In regards to finishing NaNo works outside of November, it is difficult to regain motivation and momentum in the months that follow. Personally, I find that the follow-up pep talks from NaNo can spur me to completing anything I left hanging after November. Additionally, having writing buddies to stay in touch with after NaNo can help keep you all on task to either finish your story, or start editing it. Lastly, as a huge part of NaNo is about carving out time for yourself to write, it’s something that can (and should) be carried over even outside of November (or the Camp months). While you don’t need to continue at the pace of NaNo throughout the year, if you really want to finish your novel, you do need to create some type of schedule or plan for completing your writing projects (and this goes for pretty much any creative endeavor).
Hope this helps!
Do you have any advice for someone who is struggling with editors block and thinks his or her writing sucks?
We all think our writing sucks, and it’s not actually a bad thing until it stops you from writing. If you reach a point where you think you’re amazing and can’t improve any more because you’ve reached the pinnacle of excellence, then it’s time to stop writing.
When it comes to editing, make sure you’re not editing as you go. That’s a sure-fire way to make you lose the passion for your own writing. Do it afterwards. Rewrite over and over until you like it.
Do your research. Instead of taking a bleak view of your writing, try to figure out what you don’t like about it and address the issue. Show it to other people and ask for constructive criticism (prepare to feel a little bruised and deflated). Make changes. When you hit the wall with your writing, you have two options; learn how to improve or stop. Don’t stop.
The worst thing that could happen right now is the thing that will feel best for any writer; you want someone to read it and say, “Oh, I love it! It’s the best thing I’ve read since War and Peace!”. That’s not helpful to you. It’ll pick your ego up for a short period of time and then you’ll fall back into your slump.
So, sit down and have a long talk with yourself. Research the technicalities of editing. Ask others what they think and tell them to be honest. Identify the problems and if you don’t know how to rectify them, do some research, buy some ‘how to’ books, ask other writers how they do it. Read a lot and see whether the same problems are in what you’re reading.
Find what’s broke and fix it. Take it to pieces sentence by sentence if you have to, and if you need to delete manuscript after manuscript and start again, then do it. It’s about finding what’ll save you from hitting the wall and training yourself to see your bad habits.
Don’t stop. It’ll come, if you look for ways to enable it to.
So, I've been having motivation issues lately (haven't we all). However, I noticed that I go through these periods of not doing any writing at all (insert random excuse why here) and then when I finally do come back to writing (should have mentioned my main project is a novel), I feel like I need to start over completely because I have new ideas to make early things better. The thing is, I'm fine with editing, but I keep starting over anyways - leading to never finishing a draft. Suggestions?
In Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way, she suggests that we all write 3 pages of free-flowing writing each day in the morning. I’ve been trying; and I haven’t been able to keep up. When I started initially, I couldn’t fathom the idea of just scribbling down three pages of whatever comes to mind. That was a year ago.
Cameron suggests that we don’t show these morning pages to anyone - unless of course, we want to. I think it helps to write a couple of pages each day of how you think your writing is going; just to vent your frustration with your novel, your life, etc.
For me personally, I find that when I am unable to write, I read A LOT. It’s a little like mental chewing gum, if you know what I mean. I take long walks. I think about what other writers have written. I take a moment to envy them. And then I get back to my notebook a week or two later to scribble, scribble, scribble.
I also think that you should take two weeks between the first time you write something, and when you go back to edit it.
I hope this helps!
I've got a new idea for a story that I want to write, but I don't know if it's an original idea and if I can find enough motivation to work on it untill it's finished. What do you do if you don't have motivation to work on a story or if you're not sure if you want to work out an idea? Any tips?
I had those same thoughts running through my mind a few months ago, actually.
I thought my idea sounded way too much like some other current bestsellers, and I thought no one would like it. But, I decided to give it a go and start writing it.
As I went along with the story, the characters and plot became more and more my own creations to the point where I no longer have any qualms about it being too unoriginal or plagiaristic. It has become one of my favorite original stories to date.
I think if you even have a small interest in writing something, you get that out on paper, dude! (Or a screen, or whatever else you prefer to write on.) The details will come in time.
As for motivation:
When I personally want to start writing a story, I wait until I feel inspired. That puts me off to a good start. But from then on, I think the best plan is to write everyday, even when uninspired. Think about what puts you in the mood to write. Find out what inspires you, and stick with it. Maybe a certain song helps. Maybe you need people talking in the room with you, maybe you need complete silence. Maybe you need to constantly be drinking coffee. Find what helps you, and stick with it! The end result will be worth all the days you spent on your computer when you didn’t want to write, and the nights you spent jotting down ideas when you just wanted to sleep.
Everyone is different, but those are some of my own personal suggestions.
I understand you completely. At this moment in time I don’t feel like a writer, at all. I feel like a failure of a writer and I am trying to get out of this funk. So let’s do this together?
The outside world likes to cause distractions in the form of parties, friends, work and family. And this is fine, this is normal. What me and you need to do better is organise our time so once a week or once a day however often you want to write you have the time, privacy and resources to do it.
For me this means I plan it in, I look at the clock and I think at 12 I’m going to write for half an hour. Then I work for half an hour. Then I set another goal for myself, perhaps a bigger goal and try to achieve that.
There are some tricks to writing like this (the same tips as I would give you for any work).
- Set an attainable goal. You might want to write 5000 words in fifteen minutes, but it you can’t achieve it you will feel disheartened and unmotivated.
- Give yourself a period of time to do it again.
- Give yourself frequent breaks. Not breaks on tumblr, that’s a bad idea. But give yourself five minutes to go sit outside or make a drink or paint your nails.
- Have a plan for what you want to write before you sit down to do it. There is nothing worse than sitting there having no idea what to write. Honest.
Prompts are a good kickstarter, scrawl some blogs and look for a prompt that really inspires you and write that. It helps me! Perhaps reuse some old characters if you are struggling with new characters.
But the best advice is to not stop trying. We both can do this, we both can write. We just have to give ourself chance to do it. We need to believe in ourselves and to try and succeed.
Best of luck to you, I believe in you!
Is it bad if I want to write, have written a bit, and consider myself a writer (I'm also having a short story published as a book soon) but I procrastinate so much and don't spend time writing? I feel like it's fear of screwing up that's stopping me. All I can do is outline and plan things but I'm afraid to jump on it. I haven't written anything in over a month. What should I do? I think about writing literally every day but I never bring myself to actually do it.
It isn’t bad, you aren’t bad and you aren’t screwing up. Okay? Okay. [heh heh reference]
No but first of all a massive congratulations on getting a story published, well done! That is a massive accomplishment so really, honest to god congratulations.
Second, we all procrastinate. We all don’t do as much as we can, that’s fine. But what you need to do is keep trying to write, even if you can’t write a lot. Just writing like a page or a paragraph will help you out. It will make you feel like you’ve accomplished something even if it is really small.
Third, you don’t need to be scared. I don’t want to sound like I’m belittling you, I understand why you are scared and I’d be scared too. But look at what you’ve already done, you have already accomplished getting a short story published. As writers we consistently improve as we practice, so if that story did so well why wouldn’t your next one?
Lastly, just try. You have your ideas, you have your inspiration and you want to write. So don’t let that fear win- sit down and just try to write a couple of lines. I know it can be difficult but once you get those first few words down it starts to get easier and easier.
I really hope you manage to get out of your writers block. Congrats again for getting published!
Now it works. Hey guys, I need some advice. I'm working on a novel, and I'm about... halfway through. My publisher calls me weekly, asking for updates - and truthfully? I haven't written any more of the story in ages, because I'm stuck. I have it organized already - I know what each chapter will be and what's in it - but I don't feel motivated to write the next several chapters (I want to get to the action!) and it's making me lose interest. Any advice?
Hello there, friend! I have to say, I had a similar problem for a few months, but I recently discovered the way out of the Desert of No Motivation, and I have returned with the good news and a map to get you the fuck out of dodge!
The way I got through it was, oddly enough, easing into it. I couldn’t just delve right into my work, because I felt like I had already written it, in a way — it’s one of the downsides of being so specific in your outlines sometimes. So, I couldn’t force myself into just typing more.
Instead, I did a lot with the characters. I went through their profiles and information and polished them, relearned them. Hell, I drew them. I even wrote mini-shorts that would NEVER show up in the finished work just to get used to how they interacted and get myself back into the swing of things.
Once you do that, it’s easier to ease yourself into your writing. Don’t look at it as a chore, or as ‘I have to write all of these chapters still!’. Look at it as ‘I’m going to write, say, one page today. I’ll write one page tomorrow. Even if it’s not the best, I’ll do it. I can always fix it up when I’m editing and when it’s done’.
And when it’s done, the feeling you’ll get will be wonderful. There’s nothing better. Can you imagine how great it’ll feel to tell your publisher that you’re finished, or that you’re even farther, and mean it? How proud you’ll be?
You can do it. I know you can. I believe in you, and I’m sure the followers will help cheer you on, too! Be positive. Be in control. It’s your story, and only you can finish it. You started it because you had words that needed to get out, to be shared, to be expressed — and they still need to be! And if worse comes to worse, tell yourself every day: what have I accomplished today to earn myself my tomorrow?
So, get to your writing, soldier! I expect a full report from the finish line soon!
what if my writing is bad, aka fuck that bullshit
Okay, so you want to write things. Many things. Beautiful things! Things that seem so awesome in your head! But you have just one tiny, itty-bitty problem:
Everything you write is total, complete shit. It’s so shit you want to print it out just so you can set it on fire so nobody else will ever see it. Maybe someone told you your writing was shit. Maybe you have a bad writing habit or something that plagues you constantly (mine is typos. Horrible, horrible typos). Maybe your idea is so awesome that you’re afraid you’ll ruin it. Well, I have a awesome, wonderful news just for you. One of those secrets that people forget to share. Here it goes:
Writing crap is good for you.
You don’t believe me. Crap is crap! Writing isn’t worth it if all you’re going to write is crap, right? Wrong. Fucking wrong. Fuck that shit so hard. Fuck it until it burns. Writing crap is good for you. Crap is the fertilizer in which your ideas grow. Your shitty first draft will become a beautiful flower, even if it takes many washings to get the stink off. What is crap now can be remade into not crap later, even if that later is much, much later.
Or maybe your crap isn’t worth rewriting. Maybe it’s just best to bury it quietly, with a fond farewell or a bottle of whiskey. You know what? It still did you good to write it. Crap today will improve your writing in the future. It will! You’ll learn where your strengths are. You’ll improve your weaknesses. You’ll reuse ideas you buried, or retweak them in ways you like.
Don’t be afraid to write crap. Don’t feel bad if you think you are writing crap. Everyone writes crap. Your favorite book had a shitty first draft. Your favorite authors had bad writing days. The journalist you admire had her stories rejected. The blogger you follow left his shitty posts on the drawing board.
Everyone writes crap. Don’t let it stop you from writing at all.
I have writer's insecurity. I write, but I've never posted it anywhere. It's just never perfect. It always has room for improvement and there are always mistakes. What do I do?
Really, that is we don’t have nice things — like your writing! There is always going to be room for improvement. Hell, every book that has ever been printed has at least one typo somewhere. Don’t believe me? In one of the more recent vlogbrothers videos, John Green found his.
What you need to realize is, yes, there are always things you can do to polish it and make it better, but at some point, you won’t get better unless you get it out there and see what other people think of it, too. After all, the goal of being a writer is to have a reader.
You’re not perfect, Anon, but neither is the world, so your writing will fit in just fine.
I used to write fanfiction all day a few years ago...I would write everything that came into my head and I was happy. But now I can't seem to force myself to write. I keep thinking, "Is it good enough?" and critiquing and hating every word put on paper. How do I go back to the girl who was so content with sitting at her computer for hours on end? I want writing to be fun and for it to make me happy again and I don't know how.
Listen to me. When you go back and read through the rough draft, of all things, of course it’s going to be horrible. It should be so full of errors and god-awful at points that you never want it to see the light of day that way! That’s why it’s called the rough draft. There are supposed to be manymanymany drafts after that where you can polish it and make it all pretty and clean.
You need to stop going back and critiquing every little thing in your rough draft while you’re doing it. That’s how you get the fun back. Just writing for the sake of writing — and not letting yourself go back and fix every little mistake the first time.
If you want help, though, I’ve said it before and I will say it until the day that I die: writing prompts. Go and find some of the silliest, strangest writing prompts and let yourself go nuts with them. Not every piece has to be serious.
I always find myself going through spurts of "writer's block" where I can't seem to motivate myself or think of anything that's worth writing. To cure my block, I write a list of things that inspire me, read advice from my favorite author's, make a list of my favorite books/why do I love those books, etc. Something usually comes out of reflecting on what I love and the books I love. Passion can easily be turned into creativity.
Just don’t let all of those other tasks draw you away from writing for too long. They’re addicting sometimes, I know.
Tips on how to regain motivation when you have major depression? I want to write but I can't. I haven't written anything since February.
I know personally when I was in a fit of major depression, I actually wrote about that. That sounds really strange, but writing about what you’re feeling, why you’re feeling this way [if you know] will prove to not only be a valuable resource to your later works when you try to write about depression in a happier point in your life — and yes, I guarantee, there will be a happier point in your life. Don’t let the depression trick you — but also as an outlet.
I know I found it to be a really great way to get myself motivated to actually write.

The Benefits and Challenges of Outsourcing Call Center Services in the Insurance Industry
Posted by iccs on Tuesday 14th of February 2023
Call centers play a critical role in the insurance industry, serving as the primary point of contact between insurance companies and their customers. With the increasing demand for high-quality customer service, insurance companies are turning to outsourcing call center services as a way to improve their customer experience (CX) management. However, outsourcing call center services is not without its challenges, and insurance companies need to weigh the benefits and drawbacks before making a decision.
One of the main benefits of outsourcing call center services is the opportunity to improve customer lifecycle management. Insurance companies can leverage the expertise of experienced call center providers to handle a variety of customer-facing tasks, including insurance sales, service, and support. By outsourcing these functions, insurance companies can free up their internal resources to focus on other aspects of their business, such as product development and market expansion.
Another key benefit of outsourcing call center services is the ability to provide round-the-clock customer service. Customers expect to be able to reach insurance companies at any time, and outsourcing call center services allows insurance companies to meet this demand by providing 24/7 customer service. This is especially important for customers who need assistance outside of regular business hours.
One of the biggest challenges of outsourcing call center services is the potential for lower-quality customer service. Insurance companies need to ensure that their call center providers have a deep understanding of their business and the insurance industry, as well as the skills and knowledge needed to provide high-quality customer service. Insurance companies should also consider the staffing and employee service offered by their call center providers, as well as their processes for managing quality and performance.
Another challenge of outsourcing call center services is the risk of losing control over customer data and information. Insurance companies need to ensure that their call center providers have robust security protocols in place to protect sensitive customer information. Insurance companies should also have clear agreements in place with their call center providers regarding the use and management of customer data.
Insurance companies need to consider their overall business strategy when deciding whether to outsource call center services. Outsourcing call center services can be a cost-effective solution for insurance companies that are looking to improve their CX management and customer lifecycle management. However, insurance companies need to weigh the benefits and challenges carefully and ensure that they choose a call center provider that has the expertise and capabilities needed to meet their specific needs.
In conclusion, outsourcing call center services can provide insurance companies with a number of benefits, including improved customer experience and lifecycle management, round-the-clock customer service, and cost savings. However, insurance companies need to be mindful of the potential challenges, including lower-quality customer service, loss of control over customer data, and the need to choose a call center provider that is the right fit for their business. By carefully considering these factors, insurance companies can make an informed decision about whether outsourcing call center services is the right choice for their business.

One of the highlights of visiting Udon Thani province in northeastern Thailand is the so-called “Red Lotus Sea” or Talay Bua Daeng (ทะเลบัวแดง) in Thai. Really it is a lake and not a sea. Also, they are pink water-lilies and not red lotuses. But, regardless of these small details, it is an amazing sight that can be enjoyed during the cool season from late November until early March. The best time of day to visit is during the morning, the earlier the better when the water lilies are in full bloom. The best month is said to be in January when the lilies cover a much larger area. I went there recently at the end of November and was quite impressed with the amount of flowers. The weather was certainly perfect with a lovely cool breeze.

I'm not trying to argue with you, just stating that we don't know enough to dismiss what the report is saying.
I know my Trans Am is a pain in the ass to steer when i lose power steering, i could only imagine how difficult it would be to steer it around a corner at 120+ MPH.
It's easier to steer when the car is moving faster than at low speeds if you lose power steering (I had a POS trans am that had it's power steering go out and my caddy had some power steering issues for a while as well).

Boston College will look to capture its fifth straight Boston Beanpot championship this evening when they meet Hockey East foe Northeastern University at the TD Garden at 7 p.m.
The 62nd Beanpot Final will be a rematch of last year’s championship, which saw the Eagles claim a 6-3 win. BC also defeated Northeastern in the 2011 title match, 7-6 (OT).
Northeastern hasn’t hoisted the coveted trophy since 1988, the same year the Denver Broncos lost in the Super Bowl. Prior to the Huskies’ first contest last Monday against Harvard University, the Broncos lost to Seattle in Super Bowl XLVIII, 43-8 (maybe that’s a good omen for the Black and Red?).
The Huskies have won four tournament championships, but this particular squad might be able to provide the university with its fifth.
Against the Crimson, the Huskies were able to net six goals from six different skaters, while goaltender Clay Witt did his job between the pipes, stopping 27 shots en route to his 14th win of the season.
Northeastern ranks second in the Hockey East in scoring offense. They’ve netted 91 goals this season. 34 of their strikes have been recorded in the final frame. The Huskies have also recorded one goal in the extra session, which came off the stick of Braden Pimm against Providence College on January 7.
Kevin Roy leads the Huskies in point scoring with 33 points (15 goals, 18 assists). He netted one goal last Monday in his team’s 6-0 win over Harvard, which ended his scoring drought. He hadn’t located the back of his opponent’s cage since scoring one goal against UMass on January 4.
Boston College isn’t new to the title game. In fact, this will be their 34th appearance in the championship. The Eagles have faced the Huskies four times prior to this evening’s clash and have won three of those meetings.
Eagles head coach Jerry York has guided Boston College to seven tournament championship titles, including the unit’s last four championships.
Boston College ranks first in the conference in scoring offense (123 goals), as well as first on the power play (24/108) and penalty kill (117/128). They’re second in scoring defense (60 goals).
Johnny Gaudreau leads all Division 1 skaters in points (56), goals (24) and assists (32), while Kevin Hayes ranks second in points (47). Hayes’s classmate, Bill Arnold, is fourth in the country in assists (30).
The Eagles and Huskies have faced-off twice this season with Boston College winning both contests.
Prior to BC-Northeastern, Boston University and Harvard will skate in the consolation match. Both teams met in this game last year with the Crimson claiming a 7-4 victory. The Terriers rebounded and earned a spot in the conference championship, but fell to UMass Lowell, 1-0. That game was the final contest that legendary head coach Jack Parker coached.

The Types Of Insurance Atlanta
Insurance Atlanta is coverage designed to protect a multitude of personal property. The coverage extends to the property of others depending on the type of policy selected. Insurance is available for home, auto and business purposes.
Auto insurance is insurance that protects initially the owner from liabilities. These liabilities include damage to the automobiles of other drivers. It also covers damage to the owner’s vehicle in the event of an accident or damage. Some policies cover personal injuries that occur within an automobile accident that extends to the owner, and the other driver involved.
Motorcycle insurance in Norcross is insurance that covers a motorcycle. The insurance performs in the same manner that auto insurance does. It protects against liability and provides coverage for damages.
Home insurance is insurance that covers a home and the property on which it is built. It covers all personal belongings, and any additional structures built on the property. The homeowner may be required to purchase supplemental insurance if the property is located within a flood zone.
Renters insurance is insurance that covers the personal belongings of a tenant within a rental property. It does not provide coverage for the structure itself outside of potential vandalism by the tenant. This option only covers items such as clothing, furniture, and jewelry. The value of these items may affect the premium paid each month.
Business insurance Atlanta covers the commercial property, equipment found inside the structure, and any items related to the property. It provides coverage for natural disasters, vandalism, and theft. Additional policies are required for employees, potential accidents and liability.
Finance companies require additional insurance for homes or automobiles that are financed. When this is a requirement of a contract, the mortgage provider or bank may check the status of this insurance periodically. Some financial institutions will cease the property if it is not insured properly.
Mortgage companies are also required to inform a potential home buyer if the selected property is within a flood zone prior to closing. In some states, the closing process is not completed until the buyer secures flood insurance. This form of insurance may be added to a homeowner’s insurance policy or purchased as a separate contract.
Whether you need cheap auto insurance, homeowners, business or specialty insurance, ATI Insurance agents will help you find the right policy at an affordable price in Atlanta.
