Charles Terrot started in business in the late 1880s with a modest textile workshop before diversifying into bicycle manufacturer in 1890. Like many of his cycle industry contemporaries, Terrot turned to powered transport towards the end of the Century and by the early 1900s his Dijon factory was not only making bicycles but also motorcycles, quadricycles and voiturettes. The name ‘motocyclette’ had already been registered by another company, so Terrot called his first offerings ‘motorettes’. Terrot used proprietary engines in its early years, that of the Motorette being supplied by the Swiss firm of Zedel. Equipped with a variable-ratio pulley gear, the Motorette was a capable performer by the standards of the day and was claimed to be able to climb the infamous Mont Ventoux without the rider resorting to pedal assistance. By the time war was declared in August 1914, there was a choice of two different models: a 2¾hp single and a 4½hp v-twin. In the mid-1920s Terrot began producing its own power units and by the decade’s end was France’s largest manufacturer of motorcycles. The firm offered a diverse range of machines in all sizes throughout the 1930s, garnering many competitions successes along the way, but after WW2 concentrated mainly on lightweights. Terrot was taken over by erstwhile rivals Peugeot in 1961 and the once-famous name disappeared soon after.
Note the front fork is not original. This sturdy all chain drive Terrot bears it´s first paint and is equipped with a MAG 500cc V-twin engine, O.S. speedo, AMAL carburetor, Gurtner oil pump, Miller acetylene lighting, drum brakes and a Bosch magneto.

Graeme McDowell misses out on Open place after final-round 71 in Scotland
Graeme McDowell has failed to qualify for next week's Open at Carnoustie after finishing 63rd in the Scottish Open on Sunday.
The former US Open winner from Portrush was aiming for one of three spots available for non-exempt players to secure a top-10 finish.
McDowell carded a one-over-par 71 in the final round to end on three under and 17 behind winner Brandon Stone.
The South African took one of the three Open spots up for grabs.
Englishman Eddie Pepperell and Jens Dantorp of Sweden also claimed a berth at the Open.
McDowell, who is 179th in the world rankings, pulled out of an Open qualifier at St Annes earlier this month when he lost his clubs following a flight from France.
It left the 38-year-old needing to earn one of the three qualifying places on offer at both the Irish Open and Scottish Open.
Northern Ireland will have two players in action at the Scottish links on Thursday and both are former winners.
Rory McIlroy captured the Claret Jug in 2014, three years after Darren Clarke triumphed at Sandwich.


Today we spent the day working on the RAISE farm which is adjacent to the CSI Guesthouse where we are staying and with whom we are partnering. RAISE stands for Restore Agriculture Invest in Sustainable Enterprise. They hold classes on organic farming and the 193 acres will eventually house a beautiful new community center, a large fishing pond which will also serve as a water supply for the crops, and a new athletic field for the community. In addition, several plots of land are leased to neighbors for farming. There is a large goat pen with quite a number of goats but they are overcrowded and not producing enough offspring. Therefore, we have been charged with fencing in a larger area for the goats to graze.
So today, we dug post holes and positioned cut trees in the holes by “jamming” small rocks around the base with the surrounding clay. It was hard work but an ingenious way to get the job done! We finished a full side plus about halfway up a second side before quitting time. We had a free evening tonight to recuperate from our first full day of hard labor! We ended up sorting and reorganizing the CSI storage area in the office and packing up school supplies for several area schools.
Time for rest and rejuvenation so we can string some barbed wire tomorrow!

The third round between J1 and J2 clubs will be held on 22 June - Emperor's Cup JFA 102nd Japan Football Championship
21 June 2022
The third round of the Emperor's Cup JFA 102nd Japan Football Championship will take place on Wednesday 22 June.
In the second round, all teams in the top league were able to make it through to the third round. This is the first time in 29 years, since 1993, the inaugural year of the J.League. With this, all prefectural representatives are now eliminated from the competition.
In this round, most of the fixtures feature a J2 side taking on a J1 club. Of the 22 teams in J2, 14 remain in the competition. In the previous tournament, Jubilo Iwata, who eventually won the league title in J2 last season, made it to the quarterfinals. Which teams will benefit from the momentum generated from the league competitions to succeed in this year's Emperor's Cup?
The only second-round match to go down to a penalty shoot-out was between Sony Sendai FC (Miyagi) and Yokohama FC (J2). Yokohama FC were overtaken after leading by two goals, and conceded the lead in extra time. In the second half of extra time, NISHIYAMA Taiga scored his second goal of the match to force the match into a penalty shoot-out, which the J2 side went on to win. For a team that had gone through a five-match spell without a win after leading the league, it was a wakeup call for their resilience, and they will now challenge Sanfrecce Hiroshima (J1) in the third round.
Thespakusatsu Gunma (J2) will face Urawa Red Diamonds (J1). Head Coach OTSUKI Tsuyoshi, who has taken charge of Gunma from this season, has previously led Urawa. Although the squad has changed since then, some of the players from the academy, such as SEKINE Takahiro and MATSUO Yusuke, are still with the club. Despite playing against one of the biggest clubs in the country, the coach must be carefully preparing a strategy to beat his old club he knows so well.
There is another fixture that would reunite a coach with his former club. It is the fixture between Gamba Osaka (J1) and Oita Trinita (J2). Head Coach KATANOSAKA Tomohiro, who took charge of G. Osaka this season, spent six seasons with Oita until last season, during which he led the club from J3 to J1. The Oita squad features many of the players who played with coach Katanosaka up until last season. They will certainly want to "return the favour" by showing how far the team has grown over the years of his tenure.
Most J2 teams play at their home stadiums, with the only exception being Tokyo Verdy (J2). They will play at Todoroki Athletics Stadium, the home stadium of last year' s semi-finalists, Kawasaki Frontale (J1), a stadium they used to call home before relocating to their new hometown. Reminiscing about their J1 days, the team will be looking to further boost their ambition to return to J1 with newly arrived Head Coach JOFUKU Hiroshi.
In a tournament where the teams are given just one shot, what dramas will be brewing next? Stay tuned for more hotly contested battles.

Kelly Ravin celebrates new album with show at ArtsRiot
Vermont musician Kelly Ravin likes the sound of his new album, “Engine” – maybe too much.
“This one is making me not want to write songs anymore because I feel like I can’t top it,” Ravin said in a recent conversation over a beer at Esox on Main Street in Burlington. “I love how it came out.”
Ravin, who lives in Bristol, celebrates the release of his new album Friday when he shares a bill at ArtsRiot with another of Vermont’s top singer-songwriters, Francesca Blanchard. “Engine” is the fourth solo album for Ravin, who has been on the local music scene for more than a decade in groups including now-defunct bands Lucy Vincent and most notably hard-rockers Waylon Speed.
He also of late has played in the group The Welterweights with like-minded local musician Lowell Thompson. The two share a leaning toward country-flavored rock music; Thompson helped Ravin by playing guitar and contributing harmonies on “Engine.”
“Lowell and I work really well together,” Ravin said. “He knows how to cautiously throw the hammer down.”
“Engine” showcases Ravin’s outward tattooed-rocker side and inward perceptive-songwriter side. The title track is about Virginia Ravin, the 1 ½-year-old daughter of Ravin and his wife, Kristen. “Visions” is a story-song about losing friends to opioids. “Get Lost” tells the tale of a guy who wants nothing to do with the digital world and disappears into a cabin in the woods.
“That one’s probably more about me than anything,” Ravin said.
Jer Coons of Madaila produced the album at the band’s Future Fields studio in Burlington. Ravin said he and Coons immersed themselves in the Main Street space for five days to work on “Engine.”

“It was the best recording experience I’ve ever had,” Ravin said. “You sleep upstairs, there’s a bar upstairs with kegs of beer, and then you wake up and you go downstairs and you do it all over again. It was awesome.”
The final result, he noted, starts out mellow and rocks harder toward the end. “Sometimes you’ve just got to turn it up,” Ravin said.
8:30 p.m. Friday, Kelly Ravin and Francesca Blanchard, ArtsRiot, Burlington. $8 in advance, $10 day of show. 540-0406, www.artsriot.com.
Other arts-and-entertainment highlights this week include a new art gallery, a top comedian and the final performance (sort of) by a local folk duo:
9:30 tonight, the Jamaican sounds of Jah9 & the Dub Treatment, plus tunes by DJs Big Dog and Jahson, hit Club Metronome, Burlington. $15. 658-4771, www.clubmetronome.com.

Historical sword-fighting game Clang has officially been axed, developer Subutai Corporation announced yesterday. The game earned $526,125 on Kickstarter in July 2012 and according to creator and sci-fi novelist Neal Stephenson, the developer did eventually deliver on a prototype of the game as promised.
"The prototype was technically innovative, but it wasn't very fun to play," Stephenson wrote in an update on Clang's Kickstarter page, admitting he "probably focused too much on historical accuracy and not enough on making it sufficiently fun to attract additional investment." Development paused last year to attract additional investors, which Stephenson said was part of the initial plan for the game. While Clang was slated to be playable with a mouse and keyboard, the game was expected to support peripherals like Sixense's Razer Hydra motion controller and Kickstarter success STEM system.

((Time for another short story, I think! This one is set in a Sci-Fi universe that I’ve been working and reworking on since …well, high school. Maybe I’ll get somewhere with it this time? Who knows!))
“What’s the status on PoWAP?”
“Same as usual – we’ve made several discoveries, but nothing usable.”
“You’re not being paid to make discoveries, Varnum! I need results in order to keep funding your program. What about those positron things that you mentioned at the last shareholders meeting? Any progress with that?”
“We had devised a way to stabilize generated positrons, and developed a miniaturized synchrotron for positron acceleration. However, I don’t– “
“Can it be weaponized?”
“How long for either the model or a prototype?”
“We can have a theoretical model for you in a few weeks, but a prototype could take up to a year or more, depending on weapon reliability…”
“Great! I’ll arrange for a meeting of the board in two weeks. Have your team prepare a presentation of the model and plans for the prototype by then.” Click!
I put the phone down. “Yep, great. Thanks, Dick.”
My name is James Varnum, and I run the Materials and Energy Division of an R&D company called ARC. No, not the American Red Cross – they have no jurisdiction up here. No, my ARC stands for Advanced Robotics Creation – a name that doesn’t particularly suit our company as much anymore. Sure, we had a hand in designing the automated defense platform that helped in the last war, and we are one of the first companies to have a satellite laboratory in geosynchronous orbit, but we don’t do as much with robotics as we did in the early days. Now, we simply do a little bit of everything – defense contracts, space-capable vehicles, terraforming – anything to help colonization of the rest of our solar system.
Most of our money has been coming from US DoD contracts recently – they want a new weapons platform that can be used on the moon for defense of their lunar base. A good deal of interplanetary travel involves landing on either the moon or Mars for refueling. As a result, the US and UN both want the implementation of space-capable weapons platforms to assist in the defense of their respective supply depots. Since the states have more funding (and a larger stake in the company), we were working with them for the prototypes. If successful, these platforms would then be sold to each of the major colonies.
For some reason, the contracts were ‘requesting’ that positron technology be used in the platform. Whether it be due to the recent implementation of a positron annihilation power plant outside of NYC or the brass remembering the initial tests of a positron bomb from a few years back, they seemed to believe that it was the way to go, despite other, more well-established technologies. But, they gave ARC a blank check to design something effective, so positrons it was.
The CEO, Richard Clark, was adamant on keeping the States happy, to keep funding his other projects. I had to do what I could. Sighing, I started to type up an email. If we were to meet these deadlines, I’d need to pull people from nearly every division. As well as almost all of the theorists…I hit the SEND button, and waited for the immediate deluge of responses. I wasn’t disappointed.

6 Truths About Teens and Dating
Her/Story: Why Dating in Middle School was the Dumbest Thing Ever
Whether they are little freshmen or big old seniors, it is as if you have to be in a relationship to be considered cool. This couldn't be further from the truth, and I wish more teenagers knew it. There have been so many fights between girls in my school when one of their friends starts dating an ex-boyfriend of theirs. By not dating in high school, you are helping yourself steer clear of quite a bit of drama that takes place. As everyone splits ways after high school, many of their relationships aren't serious enough to last past high school. If you can make it past high school, then props to you, but most relationships don't. Since many do not, you aren't really missing out on anything if you don't date in high school.
Things You Forgot Happened In Fast Times At Ridgemont High
The prospect of your teen starting to date is naturally unnerving. It's easy to fear your child getting hurt, getting in over their head, being manipulated or heartbroken , and especially, growing up and leaving the nest. But as uncomfortable or scary as it may feel to consider your child with a romantic life, remember that this is a normal, healthy, and necessary part of any young adult's emotional development.
There is no big surprise that a lot of men all over the world are crazy about hot high school girls. Those ladies captivate because of various amazing qualities they have. You might be a high school student like they are or even a little bit older and still have a chance to meet the love of your life.

TAMPA — Should a property zoned for commercial use be considered residential if people are living there?
That question appears to be at the heart of a legal dispute between the city and the new owner of a mobile home park at 3010 W. Gandy Boulevard.
Last month, the city assessed a $420,000 fine against the former owner of the property, part of a record-setting $840,000 fine related to the clear-cutting of trees on the parcel.
After 27 trees were cut and another irreparably damaged in August, the city fined the owner, Life O’Reilly MHP, LLC and the certified arborist who signed off on the mass tree removals. Each party was hit with $420,000 fines.
Soon after, the Gulfport-based limited liability company sold the property for $2.7 million to the Montage Engagement Land Trust,. A Naples attorney, James R. Nicci, is listed as the trustee.
In a complaint filed Oct. 14, the trust argues that people have lived on the property for more than 50 years and the city “cynically” ignored that fact when it levied the fine, according to the suit filed in Hillsborough County Circuit Court.
A state law that went into effect July 1 barred local governments from regulating tree removal from residential property, but the city argued that since the parcel was zoned commercial-general, the state law didn’t apply.
City Attorney Gina Grimes said at the time that the clear-cutting appeared to be done to make the property more viable for commercial redevelopment. The zoning was put in place in the 1980s during a comprehensive overhaul of the city’s land-use patterns.
RELATED: Tampa tree cutters face record fine
City officials declined comment Wednesday, citing a policy of not discussing pending litigation. When the city issued the fines in September, Tampa Mayor Jane Castor said the city’s tree canopy would be vigorously defended and promised aggressive actions against any violations.
On Wednesday, tree advocates reacted to news of the suit with a statement saying the lawsuit was the latest attempt to harm the city’s tree canopy..
“Zoning rules exist for a reason: to protect the health, safety and welfare of communities. Codifying tree preservation and removals are no different. Why are trees all of a sudden considered an affront to property rights, and why is a poorly written state law being used to remove healthy trees while skirting the city’s code and zoning rules? Because sweeping removal of trees makes it easier to build anything bigger, cheaper, and faster, at the expense of residents and the environment,” wrote Chelsea Johnson and Joe Chillura.
In the 1960s, the city zoned the parcel to allow mobile homes and people have lived there ever since, according to the lawsuit. When a Times reporter visited the property in August, a few residents remained. Several said they had been given eviction notices earlier in the year and were technically squatting because they couldn’t afford to move.
A hearing before a special magistrate on the fine had been scheduled for Oct. 30, but was continued because of the litigation.
The city plans to respond to the lawsuit in early November, said Ursula Richardson, a senior assistant city attorney. The case has been assigned to Hillsborough Circuit Judge Emily A. Peacock.
The city has continued the other Gandy fine as well, pending future developments in the court case. Jonathan Lee, the arborist of Miller & Sons, didn’t return a phone call requesting comment.

Trade representatives from Japan and the United States will kick off two days of trade talks in Washington today. The talks aim to resolve concerns over Japan’s $69 billion trade surplus with the US.
Two-thirds of the surplus is from Japan’s auto exports. President Donald Trump wants to open up the Japanese agricultural sector to address the trade imbalance, while Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe wishes to avoid a 25% tariff on Japanese auto exports.
After striking trade deals with the EU and ten CPTPP countries, Japan has leverage today. These deals have put US beef and pork farmers’ 22% share of Japanese food imports at risk given the lower tariffs now enjoyed by the EU and the CPTPP countries.
Tokyo may be inclined to agree to wrap negotiations up early if the US agrees to tariff-parity with international rivals. Otherwise, Tokyo is in no rush. Trump likely wants an early agreement given the onset of his re-election campaign. Watch for a two-stage agreement process—a quick and easy first agreement followed by a more comprehensive deal on harder issues, like auto exports, down the road.

For me, writing is all about the characters. It is the characters who come to me first, with their lives and their problems. I let them set up camp in my head for a bit, try to ignore them while I am busy with other things, and then, inevitably I can’t drown them out and they get the attention they demand. They get to tell their story. By the time I start jotting down notes about them and their story, I already feel like I know them quite well. In fact I usually feel quite smug about it. I do like character led fiction, you see, and it would not be unfair to assert that The Catcher In The Rye is probably my favourite book of all time.
I’ve read it tons of times, and never get bored, yet my husband couldn’t even manage it once. Boring, he said. Nothing really happens, except he moans and worries a lot. He does concede that there is a plot of sorts, one where the character goes on a bit of a jaunt, escapes his reality for a while and goes a little bit crazy in the process, but it was not enough of a plot to hold his interest.
For me, it was a case of falling in love. Feeling like I knew Holden, because Holden was so like me, and if he was real and we met in real life, we would really get along, and he would stop thinking everyone was phony. Anyway…off on a tangent there slightly, but I was trying to explain how important character is to me in fiction. I love it. Can’t get enough of it. Action, drama, suspense and thrills are all great, don’t get me wrong, but they all fall flat without great characters. Give me a few good characters doing not much, over a page turner with unlikable and unbelieveable ones, any day.
Developing characters, making them speak and act and think, is one of the best things about writing. It’s probably my favourite part of the whole thing. Yes I appreciate descriptive prose and beautiful narratives, and yes I have respect for a page-turning plot, and action that peaks and troughs at all the right times, but the characters are everything to me. Stories come from people, without people, there would be no stories.
With me, it is the people, and the stories that come first, and everything else evolves from there. But even so, I have had to admit to myself lately that I don’t know them as well as I think I do when I get started.
I often stumble along in the first draft, making notes, hitting walls, having great writing days followed by abysmal ones, and sometimes it is really hard to pinpoint what it is I’m struggling with. This happened a lot when I was writing the very first draft of what will be my next release, The Tree Of Rebels. You see, for the first time, I had the plot idea first. Weird. Luckily for me I already had a character in my head, and a name, and she had been lingering for a while, maybe wondering where she could slot in. So I used her and got started. I had most of it planned out, but obviously there were surprises along the way as well. My main aim was impressing my daughters and writing something dystopian in nature that would hold their attention and keep them gripped.
Maybe I focused too much on this. Maybe the waiting character I slotted in was not loud enough in my head. Whatever it was, I struggled. Then I realised something. I looked back on all of my novels, even the ones where the voice of the character had come to me before any kind of plot took place, and I realised that this was normal. Of course I didn’t know Lissie Turner that well yet. That was what I was struggling with. I’d gone into it assuming I knew her, assuming I understood her, and oh how wrong I was.
The first draft, no matter how intricately you have planned and described your precious characters, no matter how many lengthy bio’s you have scripted, no matter how many images of them you have found and pinned on Pinterest; the first draft is all about getting to know them. It’s like meeting a stranger for the first time and going on a little, somewhat awkward journey with them. Do they take sugar in tea? You don’t know, so you ask. Which way to they tend to lean politically? You’d like to know, but you’re scared to ask. Do they swear? Do they have a loud, or annoying laugh? How are they going to react when you start throwing hurdles and dilemmas at them? You think you know, but you don’t.
Realising this really helped me to relax with that awkward first draft. I decided to just get it written, because I had the plot all in place, and that was the main thing to get done. All the themes and ideas and images and so on would work themselves out, would pop up and blend in, and tie up as they often tend to do naturally. And the same would happen with Lissie, and the other characters. By the end of the first draft, I knew them better. We had formed a friendship and would definitely be travelling together again soon. But things were still a tad tense, a tad clumsy.
I jumped into the second draft and saw it for what it was. It was going deeper, getting under the skin, revealing the flaws and the fears and the motives. I had to accept that Lissie was really a stranger to me, and then allow the following drafts to entice her to become known. I had to have faith that this process would happen, and that I would feel I knew her better with every draft I completed. Looking back, this is also what happened with my other books, although admittedly it was definitely easier because the characters started shouting at me before I thought up stories for them… but more and more of them became revealed to me with each draft, edit and rewrite. Now I could easily tell you exactly how any of those characters would react in any situation. I could tell you what they would do, say, think, what their facial expressions would be and so on. To me, they are real people. That is what needs to happen before characters can make the reader believe in them too.
I am just about to dive into the final draft of The Tree Of Rebels, and I cannot tell you how excited I am. It has been a challenge, this book, for many reasons, not least the issue I just explained. I have decided to make some major changes, so the final draft may actually become more of a rewrite, than a last edit.
I am wary of the process and scared I will fail. But one thing I do feel better about. One thing I do feel confident about now. I know Lissie Turner. Finally, truly, I know her inside and out, and that is going to help make this thing work more than anything else!
7 thoughts on “Getting To Know Your Characters”
I enjoyed this post. It’s very interesting how you can develop a relationship with your characters. I wrote a three book detective series with characters that I really enjoy. The hero and his sidekick joke around and team up on people. After the third one I wrote a much darker terrorism thriller. Although it was an enjoyable experience, I found myself not having as much fun. I am now on the fourth in the detective series and the characters are like old friends that I’m enjoying connecting with. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for reading Don! Glad you enjoyed it!

Chantelle I SO loved this! I love how you talk about characters coming to you, because it is often like that for me as well. I might not always have a story right off, but eventually their story comes along and I have no choice but to write it down somewhere. I don’t want to forget them in a momentary lapse, but I don’t want them up there forever either! 🙂
Ahh glad you liked the post Rebecca! Glad you know what I mean too!
Loved Holden too and enjoying your blog posts!x
Thank you so much! That’s really kind, and very much appreciated 🙂

Recently I went to the dog show at McCormick place in Chicago. I highly recommend it – a lot of fun, especially if you bring kids. The fun isn’t the judging or the agility contests (which are cool) but involves walking around looking at all the breeds as they are being groomed.
Many of the dogs were in curlers of some sort as they prepared for the show but this one seemed particularly sad.
These two cracked me up – it was the “before and after” as the dogs prepared for the show. You wouldn’t believe the attention and effort that the owners lavished on these animals.
Here is a movie I made with all of my photos. If you can’t see the movie a link is here.

In Bengaluru, Renuka has been caught on camera for behaving inappropriately with police and the media while she is driving fast and fast.
BengaluruThe ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) legislator Arvind Limbayawali has apologized for allegedly misbehaving with the police and the media when his camera was caught by his daughter, Renuka, in Bengaluru. He apologized after the case was filed by police.
Renuka’s fast-paced BMW tried to overtake a vehicle fitted to the police department after it crossed the junction near the state assembly, police said.
She argued that there was no violation and demanded that she quit the fight with the police. But the police stood by her when she told her father.
The video of the argument showed that she was telling the police that she could not file a case for overturning the vehicle and that she should be allowed to go. In another video, she can be seen charging toward the cameraman and hitting his camera to record the argument. The police then tied the knot and unloaded the car.
Limbawali said a case has been filed against her daughter’s friend who was driving despite the videos being shown in the driver’s seat. “There was a small incident. My daughter was traveling in a car with a friend. The security detail stopped the car from overtaking the security vehicle. She has fined her friend Tarun. This is the first part. Secondly, the media has also been accused of assaulting the media. I see the video in it sir. Nevertheless, I apologize if the media is in pain.

Issues with Instagram
I think people put far to much effort into depicting their lives through social media. So many people want their otherwise average existences to appear interesting and exciting, so they work hard to get perfect shots of vacations, pets, activities and themselves. And after all, what use is any of it? Nobody is going to see those pictures and say, hey, I want to be friends with that person. Nobody is going to look at your latest food picture and want to offer you a job or a meaningful life. No, it's useless, quite frankly. Instead of making somebody feel good about themselves, it causes them to over anylize their life, searching for meaning and worth in the form of material objects to show off.
There are many things wrong with looking forward to events just to post photos afterward. Instead of living in the moment and appreciating their life as it is, an individual just wants to rush in to get that perfect shot. Afterward, they will feel I satisfied and wonder why. If a person just wants to somehow show off to people, saying they have it better, then they actually won't, because they are spending their time attempting to show people rather then enjoying themselves.
I agree that people shouldn't post trophies or expensive things. I think people should use Instagram for posting artistic photos, of nature, things not normally seen, art. Not food or airlines or other ways of making others feel useless.


When dressing for winter activities, you want clothes that keep you warm and dry and don’t restrict your movement. Your winter comfort starts with the base layer of clothes that you wear directly over your skin. Follow these tips for choosing the right base layer for your needs.
1. Choose Fabric Weight
Fabric weight will determine how well your base layer keeps you warm. The three base layer weights are lightweight, midweight, and ultraweight.
Wear a lightweight layer in moderate to cool temperatures, opt for midweight in cold temperatures, and wear an ultraweight base layer in the coldest weather. Although you’ll wear other layers, putting on the right base layer material weight is the first step in protecting yourself from the cold.
2. Consider Fabric Features
The next consideration when choosing the right base layer for your needs is what special features the fabric has. Quality materials make up a quality base layer.
The best fabric for your base layer needs to wick away moisture, keeping your skin dry so that you don’t get chills. Consider the fabric’s durability so that you know it can stand up to the friction from other layers and the demands of your physical activity. Some base layers provide other special benefits, such as a good ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) that reduces how much UV radiation reaches your skin.
3. Get the Right Fit
You need to get the right fit to gain the most benefit from your base layer and stay comfortable. The base layer lies right on top of your skin, and in cold conditions, you’ll wear other layers on top, so get a close fit. Additionally, the fabric can wick away moisture most effectively when it lies directly on your skin rather than billowing loosely around. You can generally buy a base layer in the size you usually wear.
Whether you need lightweight, midweight, or ultraweight base layer clothing for winter, Snow Angel has you covered and cozy. Our moisture-wicking base layers keep you warm, comfortable, and fashionable. Shop with us today.

Rabat - El Othmani has said that his cabinet will introduce a new development strategy dedicated to Morocco’s youth and employment challenges.
Rabat – El Othmani has said that his cabinet will introduce a new development strategy dedicated to Morocco’s youth and employment challenges.
The head of government appears to have taken good notes during King Mohammed VI’s speech Monday, August 20, on the 65th anniversary of the Revolution of the King and the People, which focused on youth and Morocco’s development.
In a statement to Le36, Saad Eddine El Othmani said that he will convene his team in the “coming days” for a meeting to make final decisions on strategy in response to King Mohammed VI’s expectations.
El Othmani aims to meet the expectations of Morocco’s youth and to curb unemployment in the country.
The head of government also welcomed the guidelines introduced by King Mohammed VI to empower the young people of Morocco.
“We have a heavy responsibility to young people and each and every one of us has to take this responsibility. By everyone, I mean the cabinet, political parties, unions and civil society,” said El Othmani.
He added that the government “must act now and work tirelessly to carry out these projects on which the sovereign has insisted very much.”
The head of government, who is also the secretary general of the ruling Justice and Development Party (PJD), promised that his party “will engage in the rapid implementation of these reforms.”
In his recent speech, the King renewed his call for the government to increase efforts to tackle social disparities and to introduce reforms that would revive education, administration, and other sectors.
He also ordered the cabinet to devise an “integrated strategy” to improve education and training in Moroccan universities and vocational schools and create an attractive work environment for foreign-educated Moroccan youth to return home.
The King also described the youth of Morocco as “the country’s true wealth” promising them that the country seeks to “rise to the challenge of completing the construction of modern Morocco; a revolution through which we aim to give Moroccans the place they deserve in life, especially our young people.”

Samsung’s marketing splurge doesn’t always bring bang-for-buck
Samsung Electronics Co is predicted to spend around $14 billion – more than Iceland’s GDP – on merchandising and advertising, and marketing this yr; nevertheless, it would not all the time get worth for cash.
The outlay buys the South Korean know-how massive publicity in TV and cinema commercials, on billboards, and at sports activities and arts events from the Sydney Opera home to big apple’s Radio city song corridor. Google Inc spent much less on shopping for Motorola’s handset industry. And Samsung, which has a market value of $227 billion, has made no secret of maintaining its aggressive advertising and marketing and promoting splurge because it seeks to make its brand as inspirational as Apple Inc’s. However, the cash it is spending does not all the time carry the desired consequence.
final month, a Samsung-subsidized quick-film contest finale on the Sydney Opera home acquired negative reviews for blatant product placement in a series of ‘in the back of the scenes’ videos. In Britain, viewers panned a product placement take care of ITV’s in style X-issue skill conveys. “Is this a singing competition or a long Samsung advert?” asked Twitter consumer Ryan Browne.
Before this year, Samsung’s big apple launch of its latest prime-of-the-vary Galaxy smartphone got here under hearth for being sexist, portraying laughing ladies chatting about jeweler and nail polish. In contrast, the boys discussed the new telephone, and the corporate new fridge and washing machine launch in South Africa drew identical complaints as it featured swim-swimsuit dancers.
““Samsung’s advertising and marketing is an excessive amount of interested by projecting an image they aspire to be progressive and in advance of the %,” stated Oh Jung-such, associate professor on the industry faculty of Seoul national college. “They’re failing to effectively bridge the gap between the aspiration and how shoppers, in fact, respond to the campaign. It is obtained to be more aligned.” Samsung spends an even bigger chunk of its annual income on merchandising and merchandising than another of the world’s high-20 firms by way of gross sales – 5. four %, in line with Thomson Reuters ’ data. Apple spends simply zero.6 % and general Motors 3.5 percent.
“When your model doesn’t have a transparent identification, as is the case with Samsung, to maintain spending is most definitely one of the best techniques,” said Moon Job-hunt, head of the name guide Interbrain’s Korean operation. “But maintaining advertising spend at that stage, in the long run, wouldn’t deliver rather more benefit. No one can beat Samsung with regards to (ad) presence, and that I doubt whether or not protecting investing at this degree is effective.”

In a commentary to Reuters, Samsung mentioned it would “proceed to leverage our model power to maintain growth momentum while focusing on optimizing the efficiency of our advertising actions,” reiterating up-to-date comments by using its co-CEO. “Our product innovation and advertising and marketing strategy have made Samsung the world’s most well-liked smartphone model,” Joke. Shin, who additionally heads the staff’s cell trade, informed buyers just lately. “Now we are going to transfer from probably the most preferred model to turn into one of the world’s major inspirational brands.”
Samsung’s ‘subsequent giant thing,’ and ‘it’s time to change’ marketing campaigns stress that its products are cutting-area, and even trumpet its expertise ‘world firsts’ before they’re prepared for top time, comparable to curved smartphones, available only in South Korea, and curved TVs that value nearly $10,000. For a company lengthy viewed as a follower, that is now a major promotion of being an innovator.
However, while Samsung has change into the arena’s biggest advertiser, spending $4.3 billion on advertisements in my own final 12 months, its global brand price of $39.6 billion is not up to half of that of Apple, which spent best $1 billion on promotion, in step with Interbred and advert researcher ad Age. to make certain, Samsung has a more numerous vary of cellular products, which together with its chips and household appliance businesses need extra advertising across completely different target audiences. But the heavy advertising and marketing spend suggest a need to convince customers that it belongs on the top. Apple can manage to pay to spend much less as it already has that brand reputation and cachet.
“The better, extra differentiated the product, the much less it must be propped up with the aid of advertising,” stated Horace Eddie, founder of impartial research agency Asimov and a former Nokia industry building supervisor, referring to Apple’s ad spend. Defending its advertising price range, Samsung can point to its lead within the global smartphone market – it sells one in every three smartphones and has more than double Apple’s market share. The Korean team’s savvy adverts mocking Apple devotees and heavy funding in distribution channels have reinforced its Galaxy cell model.
“The Galaxy model has centered itself, and the Samsung brand is now much enhanced than Android or any of the opposite OEM brands, excluding Apple,” said Benedict Evans, impartial know-how and media consultant in London. “The underlying problem is that Samsung has based itself as an unswerving high-quality model, no longer a differentiated or top rate high-quality product, so it does absolute best where it’s not competing immediately with Apple.” Samsung works with quite a few promotion agencies, together with Publicist Grouped, Interpublic staff, and MDC companions.
Samsung’s latest advertising splash has been on its Galaxy tools smartwatch, nearly universally panned by using reviewers. The software has been aggressively marketed through adverts and collaboration with style displays – but only 800,000 Gears had been shipped, given that its launch was only two months in the past. Evaluate that to the greater than 5 million words; three smartphones were shipped because of its late-September launch. It suggests fewer than a fifth of the be aware patrons are additionally buying the accessory tool.
A deep-pocketed Samsung – it earned operating revenue of $9.6 billion within the third quarter on my own – is still pushing the envelope to win over shoppers. Undeterred, Samsung has vowed extra equipment promotions for the compelling yr-finish holiday season because it seeks to steer the wearable laptop market and show its innovation credentials. “Most definitely Samsung knows higher than any person that tools won’t develop into a mainstream product. Nonetheless, they’re trying to bring the message that ‘we are first with such technology,’ which they hope will help construct their brand as a complicated know-how agency,” stated Interbrain’s Moon.
This month, the large-spending reputable sponsor of the earlier eight winter and summer season Olympics launched a fable-inspired soccer advertising campaign beforehand of the mid-2014 World Cup in Brazil – picking 11 of the world’s top gamers, together with Argentine striker Lionel Messy, for a digital suit to save lots of Earth from aliens – with the assist of Galaxy devices.

THE LAMBS LIE DOWN
"I don't have any answers," says Ram coach John Robinson about his team's 0-3 fade after its 5-0 start. But he surely knows what's wrong.
1) The running game has no rhythm. Back in early October, it seemed that no team could stop Greg Bell. Now Bell has slowed. He averaged 5.1 yards per carry during the 5-0 start; since then that stat has dropped to 2.7. The Rams may have to start giving the ball to rookie Cleveland Gary or versatile Robert Delpino in the second half of the season.
2) Jim Everett has happy feet. Everett was a confident 65% passer in the first five games. Now he's jittery; he's throwing off his back foot and is not seeing all his receivers. During the slump he has completed only 46% of his throws. The key to beating Everett is pressure, even if that means single coverage on wide receivers Henry Ellard and Flipper Anderson.
3) The Eagle has crashed. The Eagle is the Rams' defensive scheme of two linemen and five linebackers, but key linebackers Larry Kelm and Fred Strickland are out with injuries. So the defense has been playing traditional 3-4 and 4-3 fronts of late, and outside rushers Frank Stams and Mel Owens have had to play on the inside for the first time in their pro careers. The D has given up 83 points in the swoon.
THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
Pete Rozelle spent the final weekend of his exactly 29� seasons as commissioner lying low, watching the Oilers-Browns and 49ers-Jets games on TV in his Manhattan hotel room because he wanted Paul Tagliabue to have the spotlight. Rozelle officially leaves office at 12:01 a.m. this Sunday. On Monday he introduced Tagliabue to the NFL staff. Rozelle planned to spend the rest of the week cleaning out his Park Avenue office. He hopes to be settled into his Rancho Santa Fe, Calif., home by Thanksgiving. He said his last weekend in power felt anticlimactic. "I have no strong feelings," he said. "You just think, Thank God it's over."
DEAD TO WRIGHT
How perfectly improper: After 759 straight pass attempts without being sacked, Dolphin quarterback Dan Marino was dropped by a backup nosetackle named Jeff Wright in the Bills' 31-17 victory over Miami. As he set up for the next play, Marino stared across the line at Wright and winked congratulations. "He's a class act," said Wright.
STAND BY, CANTON...
As San Diego quarterback Billy Joe Tolliver prepared to make the first start of his NFL career Sunday at Seattle, NBC announcer Charlie Jones said on the air: "I predict 15 years from now you'll remember this moment. I think he's Hall of Fame material." Tolliver led the Chargers through three quarters and nine series, completed six of 17 passes and never entered Seattle territory. The Chargers lost 10-7. "I fell flat on my face," said Tolliver, who nonetheless stayed around afterward to try to explain the loss.
STATS OF THE WEEK
?In the Jets' last five games, including Sunday's 23-10 loss to the 49ers, their offense has scored one touchdown. Over that same span, New York safety Erik McMillan has scored three TDs.


text: Absolute amazing location and casa. A rustic traditional build casa and in contrast has a very modern shower/toilet and very functional kitchen. Great resource of information available including walking maps. Well equipped house. Great outdoor areas with tables in the sun for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Herb garden and as well some fresh strawberries! It is all off the beaten track and you are required to take everything with you – up the hill from Spruga. (30-45 min hike). Very friendly small community at the Piansecco. Kids could join the farmer with goat milking and enjoyed their trip back to the nature…. One of our highlights was the day trip to the „Bagni di Craveggia“ thermal hot spring. A good hour plus to walk to the Italian border at the end of the Onserone valley. Unfortunate the taps at the bath tubs are all broken and the hot and cold „kneipp“ foot-bath did not work either. Still amazing area to relax and have some great family time. Small river to swim/plunge too. Petra the „Landlord“ has been as well very helpful and accommodating with our own challenges on our hike we planned through Switzerland. Thanks again for you help. Our two weeks hiking trip was an amazing journey and those three days @ Casa Piansecco are well part of making this a very memorable holiday.
