Her Circle Edit: 10 Magical Towns With Streets Made Of Water
Karishma Sen | &nbspMay 14, 2022
If you're a travel aficionado who is always looking for unique destinations, look no further. The idea of using a boat instead of a car to explore a new city sounds truly unique. Did you know that Venice is not the only canal city in the world? Dozens of charming canal cities offer stunning spectacles—from delightful markets, and riverfront palaces to classic pagodas. Here's a list of beautiful towns/ cities built around canals, whether located amid the tropics, within a city's historic heart or in a tranquil outlying neighbourhood.
1. Giethoorn, Holland
This Dutch town has no roads, only canals. This small town of about 2,600 people, is only accessible by boat. Giethoorn is called the "Dutch Venice" – it has more than 55 miles of canoe trails which connect the canal-side homes, eateries, hotels, and museums in the town centre.
2. Suzhou, China
This city is most commonly known as China's canal capital or Venice of the East. Completed by waterside gardens, sacred landmarks and historic dwellings, Suzhou's narrow water passages are among the oldest in the world. Here, locals and tourists still get around by boats.
3. Venice, California
Here you can find a slice of Europe in Los Angeles, Southern California. The canals are located right off 25th street in Venice Beach, almost every house on the canals has a charming dock, visitors can walk along the water or bring their own boat to take in the extravagant houses and gorgeous views.
4. Ganvie, Africa
With a population of around 20,000 people, Ganvie is a lake village in Benin, Africa. The city stands on stilts in the middle of Lake Nokoué, all structures such as bars, restaurants, and bungalows are built on water and are located several miles away from the nearest shoreline, so travelling in boats is essential here.
Located in south India, this coastal city captivates with its green rice fields and network of backwaters. Five large lakes are connected by canals making it a popular channel for tourists to take explore the region and even stay in houseboats.
6. El Gouna, Egypt
El Gouna is a small tourist city situated along the Red Sea. It is also considered the most environment-friendly town and the greenest city in Egypt. This resort town was first developed in the 1990s and includes 20 islands surrounded by canals and lagoons.
The waterways that intersect the Thai capital serve as living cultural and historical relics. Bangkok has been protected by canals since the 18th Century. Three of the most historically significant places to explore the canals are Khlong Saen Saeb, a canal in the centre of the city, Khlong Phadung Krung Kasem, one of the original canals around the Grand Palace, and Thonburi, a neighbourhood on the west side of the Chao Praya.
8. Kurashiki, Japan
Kurashiki is a Japanese city located in Okayama. Its historical heart is crossed by the Takahashi River and canals. Here one can rake in the breath-taking beauty of the willow-lined canals combined with the whitewashed traditional warehouse buildings and museums.
9. Annecy, France
Because of its extensive waterways and mountain-side location, many call this town the the "Pearl of French Alps. The three canals and the Thiou River slice through the small city and are certainly one of France's best-kept secrets. The canals were purposefully built around the former castle of Lord Annecy, which is why all the canals circle the tower.
10. Empuriabrava, Spain
With over 15 miles of canals, Empuriabrava is the largest residential marina in Europe, it is an interesting city with sailable canals similar to that of Venice. Aiguamolls de l'Empordà Natural Park and an array of adventure sports offerings make this city perfect for all.


A week before Labor Day, our friends John and Angie invited us to head to the coast for a big ol' family camping trip. We searched and searched for a house sitter, and once we found one (hey Whitney!!), we jumped at the chance for a little camping. On Friday, we hopped into the Jeep, and headed out to Astoria.
This was Al's second camping trip, and we were a little curious how a mobile baby would do in a tent. (It was totally fine). This was my first camping trip as a vegan. It was a great challenge. I prepped a lot of my food before we left. I didn't take photos of any of it (if there aren't photos, did it happen?), but I thought I'd share my menu. Friday night was vegan hot dogs, vegan potato salad, and baked beans. Saturday breakfast was pancakes (I put the dry ingredients together in a jar before we left, and kept the wet ingredients separate until right before we cooked them), and hash browns. Saturday lunch, we took a little trip up to Washington, and ended up eating PB&J and chips on a beach. Saturday dinner was awesome burritos. I made some Spanish rice before we left, then mixed in black beans. Our friends made guac, and we had other yummy additions. Yum! So good. Sunday morning, I cooked up some garden zucchini, onion, and hash browns, and put it into a tortilla with salsa. Sunday lunch was chickpea salad sandwiches I made before leaving home.
Aside from eating, we trekked all around NW Oregon and SW Washington. We played around on a slack line, drove on a beach, drank cheap beer, and truly enjoyed some time outside.
Here's a bit of our adventure.
As the rain cleared on Saturday morning, we hopped in the cars, and headed up to Washington. The bridge across the river is the longest bridge I've ever been on. Ugh! Beautiful view, though!
Al ate her first 3 handfuls of sand!
Before we got back on the road for home, we popped down to the beach for a bit. We sat there, drank beer, and watched a huge front (of fog) move through. Jim and Aaron tried body surfing, and Al got to dip her toes into the sand for the first time.


Mark at Break Lites has been one of my longest tenured clients going back 6 year. I have photographed all sorts of custom street bikes and Harley street glides. When Victory Motorcycles contacted MOMS Boston to be one of 22 shops to enter the Operation Octane challenge, to customize one of their bikes. Who else to call to build it but Mark. When arrived to shoot the bike for the contest, I instantly knew something was different, I never seen a bike like this, but why? They combined a sports cruiser with street bike elements, something that hasn't been done before, or at least not done to this level.
Like I mentioned before, I have been photographing for Break Lites from the beginning of my career, and they were one of my first full time clients. Developing relationship such as this is crucial for my freelance career. Whatever Mark needs, I will deliver. In turn, besides documenting his builds, I have been published in numerous motorcycle magazines including a few cover stories.
With this shoot, we approached it a bit different than before, and something I really never tackled before, Nightime photography. So I busted out the tripod and made it happen. One of my favorite bike shoots with such a great location. We used the Zakim bridge, a Boston staple, as backdrop along with the lights on the walkway, made way for some fun creative images.
The only issue I had was that the walkway almost had a luminescence to it…later on I found out why. I get in Marks truck and head to MOMS and I'm extremely itchy with a small rash all over my arms and my legs. The walkway is infused with fiberglass and not meant to be laid on. and of course to get some low angles, I'm lying on the ground.


ASUNCION, Paraguay – Retired Bishop Fernando Lugo was elected president of Paraguay April 20, ending the six-decade rule of the Colorado Party.
Bishop Lugo took an early lead in the pre-election polls, despite official disapproval from the Vatican and, initially, from the Paraguayan bishops' conference. As support for Bishop Lugo remained strong in the largely Catholic country, the conference refrained from further comment.
Bishop Lugo, 58, retired from the Diocese of San Pedro in 2005. The Vatican suspended him from exercising his priestly ministry when he decided to run for president, but rejected his request for laicization after more than 30 years as a bishop and priest.
Although several media outlets reported that the Vatican could be considering a dispensation for Bishop Lugo, the apostolic nunciature in Paraguay said there had been no change in the retired bishop's status.
However, the Italian news agency ANSA reported April 22 that Bishop Martinez said the bishops' conference was willing to collaborate on a solution to the canonical problem.
Bishop Martinez said the bishops will work with Archbishop Orlando Antonini, papal nuncio to Paraguay, in a "process of reflection" that must take a verdict to Pope Benedict XVI before Aug. 15, when Bishop Lugo takes office for a five-year term, reported ANSA.
Passionist Father Ciro Benedettini, vice director of the Vatican's press office, said April 21 and 22 that the Vatican will not be making any statements regarding Bishop Lugo.
Bishop Lugo won slightly more than 40 percent of the vote, edging out Colorado Party candidate Blanca Ovelar, who was jockeying to become the country's first female president, and retired Gen. Lino Oviedo, former head of the armed forces, who was convicted, then acquitted of a 1996 coup attempt.
In Paraguay, unlike other Latin American countries, there is only one round of balloting, and the candidate with the simple majority is the winner.
Bishop Lugo, who campaigned on a platform of equality for Paraguay's poor farmers and indigenous people, will take over a country slightly larger than Nebraska and South Dakota, with a population of about 6 million.
With a per capita income of about $1,400, landlocked Paraguay is also one of South America's poorest nations. The service sector and agriculture are the largest employers, and more than 1 million people are estimated to have left the country in search of employment.
Ciudad del Este, on the border with Brazil, has a reputation as a haven for contraband smugglers and drug runners, and the country has been beset by corruption scandals. In 2001, it was revealed that then-President Luis Gonzalez Macchi's presidential limousine was a car that had been stolen in Brazil and smuggled into Paraguay illegally.
Wedged between Brazil and Argentina, Paraguay shares river borders and hydroelectric dams with both. During the campaign, Bishop Lugo pledged to renegotiate Paraguay's contract with Brazil for the Itaipu dam.
Under the current contract, which was negotiated when both countries were under military rule, Paraguay sells its excess electricity to Brazil at cost. Bishop Lugo has proposed increasing Paraguay's share of the revenues by raising the price to market rates.
The campaign became more heated in recent weeks. Outgoing President Nicanor Duarte verbally attacked Bishop Lugo, whose campaign he claimed was financed by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, while media predicted the bishop's victory.
Bishop Lugo has expressed sympathy with the wave of left-leaning leaders who have taken office in Latin America in recent years, while keeping his distance from Mr. Chavez.

Digital media has changed the way fashion is reported, consumed and shared.So, instead of the regular online look-book, Just after she unveiled her collection at the Amazon India Fashion Week, we took the audience on an exciting virtual trip through her collection. A look-book designed to wow not only those in attendance, but also all of their followers. A look-book designed to engage and create conversations around the brand.

This lookbook gave bloggers and customers an engaging glimpse into the Not So Serious AW'15 collection. It generated a lot of buzz among the online fashion community as well as kicked off many sales orders and garment enquiries on Instagram. The profile on which the lookbook rests saw numerous mentions, comments and shares; with evident excitement and interest over the creative execution.

Well yes. I do know that Wordless Tuesday is not a thing, but give a woman a break won't you?? It has been a heck of a busy week and I'm not quite sure I have got the energy to think up anything snazzier, nor indeed string a sensible sentence together, so Wordless Tuesday it is: a collection of moments from the past few weeks that I do not want to forget. P.S: There may be some words involved. I am simply incapable of shutting up. Oooh and there is likely to be a range of funny faces pulled by my son. I do apologise.
So first up: a double selfie. With dog. Hell yeah: I said selfie on BrocanteHome. I'm down with the kids.
My gorgeous cousin Liz got married. She walked down the aisle to the Star Wars Death March because her and husband Tom allowed their darling little girl Molly to choose the music for the wedding. Wonderful.
My beautiful Mum and Finn at the wedding. Despite his expression he was having a wonderful time, but sadly his face turns to stone whenever he is faced by Mummy with a camera and a request to smile. Damn him!
Today he caused all kind of commotions at the Formby Red Squirrel Park by insisting he was stuck up a tree. A tree that was no more than about three feet off the ground. Never say mine is not a boy abundant with derring do.
And finally Alfie. This is the love affair of my life. I love him and he loves me. We are bezzies. I like him more than cake. And I do not think I have uttered that sentence for ever such a long time.

'A chance to right a wrong': Residents discuss school mascots at WFISD board meeting
Airman returns home to wife, five kids from military deployment
Patrick Johnston
Editor's note: This article first appeared in the Jan. 24, 2015 print edition of the Times Record News.
It may have been a month and a day late, but the five Willoughby children got quite the present Friday afternoon.
Their father, Air Force Capt. Rob Willoughby, returned home from a six-month deployment to Qatar to surprise his children at their schools after being greeted by his wife, Laura, and representatives from Sheppard Air Force Base.
Previous:Air Force family of seven learns to cope with father's military deployment
Laura was anxiously waiting in the secure portion of Wichita Falls Regional Airport until the moment he walked off the jet bridge and into a much-anticipated embrace that had to wait an extra day because of a maintenance issue that delayed Rob's return home.
"The anticipation is always hard, and the communication is difficult, since cellphones don't work overseas," Laura said. "So, once he starts traveling, there's no easy way to get a hold of him or to know what's going on.
"Then, it's the little delays that make it so much harder and so emotionally draining. But to see him actually walk out the door and finally be able to give him a hug and talk to him in person – it's just been amazing."
Knowing the potential for delays, the Willoughbys elected to tell their children that Rob wouldn't be home until early February.
First surprise: Oldest kids during school pep rally
It was quite the surprise for Taylor, 8, and Xander, 7, when their dad greeted them in their classrooms at Christ Academy.
"They were having a pep rally today, but I was trying to get Rob to surprise them by themselves in their classrooms," Laura said. "They both thought he was coming back in a few weeks from now, instead of today."
While Xander ended up seeing his father before Laura had intended, Taylor was in shock when he turned around to see his father kneeling behind him outside his classroom.
Update:Air Force family overcame military deployments, now faces dad's lymphoma diagnosis
"I'm just pretty much going to run up and give him a big hug," said Taylor when asked what he wanted to tell his father first when he saw him again in person, not knowing that his dad was walking up behind him at the time.
When Taylor turned around and finally saw Rob, it took a moment before the hug finally happened.
"It was neat seeing the relief in their faces and that they got it, knew what it meant and were excited about it," Laura said. "It was an enjoyable event – seeing the joy of finally having their daddy home, especially since it was a surprise they weren't anticipating."
Christ Academy staff, students welcome Rob home
However, it wasn't just Taylor and Xander who were glad to see Rob. Teachers and students had gotten to know the family throughout the deployment and had been praying for his safe return.
Rob was greeted with hugs, greetings, congratulations and thanks for his service by many in the hallways while being shown around by Laura and the two boys before the couple went to pick up their three youngest children.
"The feeling of community rather than individuals was really touching," Laura said. "Their acceptance of him because of us showed they really showed they cared and weren't just saying empty words for the situation. They're my family and they embraced him, literally, into it as well."
Update:Former Sheppard Air Force Base family learns dad's cancer in remission
The family planned to eat dinner Friday night at Texas Roadhouse, which fed Laura and the kids for free once a month during Rob's deployment, before spending a weekend together as a family for the first time since July.
"It's both surreal and comfortable. We haven't seen him since July but in many ways it's like he never left," Laura said. "He immediately stepped into the parent role making things easier for me already, but I'm looking up and hardly believing he's really here."

Nelson and Murdock's Tour
"This office was barely touched by the incident, which is why it's on the market already. The neighbors weren't so lucky."
―Susan Harris to Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson[src]
Susan Harris gave Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson a tour of an office in Hell's Kitchen when they had been searching for a spot to set up their new law firm. While showing the office to the two, she made a passing joke that the two of them could flip a coin to decide who could have the office with a view, though she apologized for it as soon as Murdock arrived, realizing that he was blind.
Harris gives Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson a tour
She told them that the building was one of very few that was barely untouched by the Battle of New York. Nelson argued with her by pointing out that the only view they had was of cranes and scaffolding and that it felt like they were getting pre-incident prices. Harris noted that they were a quarter of what they used to be and that Hell's Kitchen was on the rebound and pretty soon prices for such an office would increase dramatically. Murdock agreed with her and said that they would take it.[1]

The length and number of the outages depends on the latitude of the earth station and the diameter of the antenna. At an average latitude of 40 ° in the continental United States, and a I 0-meter antenna, the outages occur over 6 days with a maximum duration of 8 minutes each day. With a less directional 3-meter antenna, the outages occur over 15 days, with a maximum duration of 24 minutes. The times and durations of sun outages can be calculated precisely, ~but this requires the use of astronomical tables that are frequently not available in the broadcasting industry, An easier way is to obtain the information from the satellite carriers, all of which have developed computer programs for outage calculations.

The quality ofcommercial LNA amplifiers varies widely in accordance with their cost. The difference in noise performance of a cryogenically cooled LNA in a major earth station and an inexpensive backyard-dish LNA may be 10 dB or more. 6 SUMMARY A satellite communication system has two major components, the earth segment and the space segment The earth segment includes (1) an uplink earth station that transmits a signal to the satellite and (2) a downlink earth station that receives and amplifies the signal transmitted back to earth by the satellite.

The total usage of transponders by television program services, more than 380, makes the television industry the largest market for satellite transmission in the United States.

Q: Why does using excludeSwitches in c# Python code works:
import time
from selenium import  webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_experimental_option('excludeSwitches', ['enable-automation'])

But the C# code is not working:
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.AddAdditionalCapability("excludeSwitches", "disable-popup-blocking");

A:         List<string> ls = new List<string>();
        ls.Add("enable-automation");

        {
            Console.ReadKey();
        }

A: I use "excludeSwitches" to get rid of the error showing on the output console.
A device attached to the system is not functioning error using ChromeDriver Selenium on Windows OS

This is my code:

Home-brewing offers an unusual, delicious hobby
byAVERY GREGURICH
in Features, Relays Edition
Story by Avery Gregurich

While many thirsty citizens still rush to the nearest tavern or convenience store when the craving for a bottle of beer strikes, an increasing number of people are staying at home.
Instead of buying a brew someone else has crafted, these people are deciding to combine together their own hops, malt, yeast and time to craft beers of their very own.
Mark Nauman is the owner of Beer Crazy, a full service home-brew shop located in Urbandale.
Nauman said craft hobbies like home-brewing attract people with a similar personality type.
"If they are the type of person where they don't need instant gratification, then home-brewing, wine making and cheese making tend to be good recreational opportunities for them," Nauman said.
He said conomics do not account for a large portion of people's decision to home-brew beer, estimating that "less than 5 percent save money."
"If you're drinking Budweiser, Miller or Coors, you can't make it for what you buy it for," Nauman said. "But if you're drinking craft beers that tend to be around $3 to $4 a bottle, you can save money."
Bart Schmidt, digital projects librarian at Cowles Library, has been brewing his own beer for the last two decades, starting when he was in his 20s while living in Philadelphia with some of his friends.
"We had a big, old west Philadelphia house so we had a lot of extra space," Schmidt said. "We had an extra room we called our brewery."
The hobby's popularity has increased in his time. Schmidt said that, "There was a while when I thought it was just male librarians that did it."
"Now," Schmidt said, "It's a hobby that a lot of people seem to be doing."
Like Nauman, he attributes the increase in popularity to the craft aspect of the hobby rather than the currency.
"People like to make things themselves," Schmidt said.
Schmidt is a member of the Iowa Brewers Union (IBU), a home beer-brewing club with members across central Iowa. Some of his fellow members of the IBU have taken their passion for making beer out of their garages and started businesses.
"It's interesting to see how many people from that group have gone on," Schmidt said. "They started as hobbyists and have gone to do it professionally."
Schmidt cites a 2010 bill, known as the "Iowa Beer Equality Bill," that allowed breweries to produce beer that was above 6 percent alcohol by volume as being key in the expansion of the craft brewery industry.
"Iowa changed a couple of laws three years ago, and since then, a lot of breweries have opened up," Schmidt said.
Tyler Nelson is a junior accounting major and has been home-brewing for nearly two months. He started brewing his own beer for a variety of reasons.
"It's fun, it's different. I've never done anything like it before, and I kind of just wanted a new hobby," Nelson said.
In his short time brewing, he has made three different batches of beer, each in a five-gallon fermenter tucked away in the bottom of his bedroom closet. Two of those batches were a blood orange Hefeweizen, a wheat based beer. He named this beer "Ameribrew," adorning each 22-ounce bottle with an American flag bottle cap.
The third batch he tried was what is known as a clone brew, a copied recipe of an existing commercial beer. The chosen beer was the Maharaja Imperial IPA from Avery Brewing Company in Boulder, Colo.
He estimates it costs him about $200 to purchase the necessary equipment to start brewing.
Nelson considers himself somewhat of an aficionado when it comes to beer and enjoys turning his friends on to the many different types and styles that beer assumes. He also encourages any student with the means to pursue home-brewing as a hobby to do it.
"If you have the money and extra time on your hands, and like beer, it's fun and something you can take pride in," Nelson said.
But, he has a warning some thirsty college students may not want to hear.
"Cleaning is 75 percent of all beer making," Nelson said. "You don't want anything to contaminate your beer, and you have to do most of it by hand."

It was exactly one year ago today that I published my first book, Connected From the Start: Global Learning in the Primary Grades. In that time, it has been my observation that more and more teachers are becoming interested in connecting their classroom. I frequently see teachers on Twitter asking if other classrooms would like to connect with theirs or I receive emails from teachers asking me how to get started with connecting.
As the one-year anniversary of the publication of my book about connecting classrooms approached, I wondered about the ways I had connected my classroom over the past months. Was I still as actively involved with connecting as I had been before I published the book? Or was I content to let that slide?
I went back through my classroom and professional blog posts and photos and was relieved to discover that yes, connecting was still high on our classroom priority list! Because it has become such an integral and natural part of the way we learn, it just doesn't stand out in my mind the way it did in the past.
I decided that in celebration of this anniversary, I would make a list of the ways I had connected my students in the past year as suggestions for teachers just beginning their connected classroom journey. Initially, I was going to make a list of all the ways I had seen other teachers connecting, but by the time I had finished with my own list, I found it was quite long.
So I've stopped here. I hope you will forgive my self-centeredness and add your own suggestions and links for connecting in the comments. This list is by no means comprehensive.
Thank you for sharing so many concrete examples that are tied to curriculum outcomes. An intersting and inspiring. I can sense your genuine enthusiasm here in Regina, Saskatchewan.
Thanks, Lisa! I AM enthusiastic about this. And I live only 40 miles away from you in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan!
Fantastic ideas, Kathy. I plan on sharing this post with my K-5 teachers.


If you head to fremontslo.com, the website for the historic Fremont Theater, you'll see a schedule of upcoming concerts. You'll also see a lot of "SOLD OUT" banners across the advertised shows: Hippie Sabotage—Paths of Righteousness Tour, Thursday, Feb. 1—SOLD OUT; Stick Figure, Twiddle, and Tya Terra, Thursday, Feb. 8—SOLD OUT; Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, Friday, Feb. 9—SOLD OUT!
The theater is currently being booked by a consortium of promoters, and my fears that our market can't sustain as many shows as the Fremont is mounting have proved wrong. The place is going gangbusters!
SOLD OUT! Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox on Feb. 9, at the Fremont Theater, is—like many of the venue's upcoming shows—already sold out. Buy your tickets early!
I interviewed Sara Niemietz, one of the rotating vocalists from Postmodern Jukebox, planning to run the interview in the Feb. 7 issue a couple days before the concert. Then I heard it was close to selling out, so I figured I'd run the interview a week early in this issue, but it's already a moot point since all the tickets are gone.
Too bad, because Niemietz told me about how she caught the singing bug at 4 years old when she was at a BJ Thomas concert with her parents, near the front, belting out every word of Thomas' "Hooked on a Feeling," when the singer waved her up on stage, passed her the microphone, and was blown away by how comfortable she was in front of an audience.
"I was thrilled, and that moment cemented for me that I wanted to be a singer," the 25-year-old told me during a phone interview, adding that she and Thomas stayed in touch over the years and that around her 21st birthday, Thomas brought her into the studio to record a duet with him for one of his albums. "He's such a nice guy, so down to earth and super encouraging. Our friendship has meant so much to me."
There's more to the interview, but I don't want to torture you since you can't get tickets to the show. My point is this: If you're hoping to see one of the upcoming shows at the Fremont Theater—shows such as hip-hop artists Bone Thugs-n-Harmony on Saturday, Feb. 17 (9 p.m.; $32); outlaw country and Southern rocker Shooter Jennings with opener Jade Jackson on Wednesday, Feb. 21 (9 p.m.; all ages; $22); former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett on Friday Feb. 23 (9 p.m.; all ages; $61.50 to $81.50)—you should buy your tickets now. The Thursday, Feb. 22, Ty Dolla $ign—Don't Judge Me Tour is already ... you guessed it ... SOLD OUT!
BREAKING OUT Regional Texas country star Josh Ward, who's poised to reach national acclaim, plays The Siren on Feb. 2.
You might not have heard of Josh Ward, but then you're probably not from Texas, where the 37-year-old's newest album, Holding Me Together, recently generated another No. 1 hit on the Texas Regional Radio Chart. Between his debut full-length album, Promises, and this new one, every song he's released as a single—nine of them now—reached the top of the charts. Every single consecutive one!
"I have that disease where I think every song has to be a hit," Ward said in press materials. "If it's mediocre, I won't do it."
Numbskull and Good Medicine Presents is bringing Ward to Morro Bay's The Siren on Friday Feb. 2 (7 p.m.; 21-and-older; $15 presale at ticketfly.com or $20 at the door). Ward's days of playing 300-occupancy clubs may be brief; he's going big!
The Houston native is proving to be the new heavyweight champion of old-school country music, with an instantly iconic voice. As fellow songwriter Mike Ethan Messick once said of Ward, "Josh Ward sings like Mike Tyson hits hard."
Like many, Ward started singing in church but discovered outlaw country artists such as Willie, Waylon, Merle, Jones, and Strait in high school while riding the rodeo circuit. He picked up a guitar, started playing honky-tonks in 2003, honing his skills. He finally released Promises in 2012, produced by Grammy Award-winning producer, Greg Hunt. The record garnered Ward the title of Texas Regional Radio's New Male Vocalist of the Year.
Ward is currently working on album No. 3 to be released later this year, so if you caught him at his packed show in August when he toured through with Cody Johnson, you can expect some new music.
GET 'EM WHILE THEY'RE HOT! The Blasters with Phil Alvin plays The Siren on Feb. 15, and it's going to sell out, so get tickets now if you want to go.
Also this week at The Siren, check out Queen Nation: A Tribute to the Music of Queen on Saturday, Feb. 3 (7:30 p.m.; 21-and-older; $18 presale at ticketfly.com or $20 at the door). Formed in 2004, the group features Gregory Finsley on vocals and keyboards as Freddie Mercury. Their 90-minute production of Queen's greatest hits "preserves the image, sound, and stage persona of vintage Queen," according to their press materials. Hear "We Will Rock You," "Bohemian Rhapsody," "We Are The Champions," "Crazy Little Thing Called Love," "You're My Best Friend," "Another One Bites The Dust," "Under Pressure," and more.
Also, even though this one's a ways away, it's going to sell out, so if you want to go, get tickets now for The Blasters with Phil Alvin playing The Siren on Thursday, Feb. 15 (7:30 p.m.; 21-and-older; $20 presale at ticketfly.com or $25 at the door). Don't say I didn't warn you!
YOUNG BLOOD Cayden Wemple, 18, will release his new EP, Car Crash from an Aerial View, on Feb. 2, at Kreuzberg, and it's a doozy! Don't miss this one!
I'm listening to 18-year-old Cayden Wemple's new EP, Car Crash from an Aerial View, and it's amazing, with well-crafted, thematically emotive lyrics, engaging melodies, delivered with an earnest, indie rock voice. This kid's got it going on, delivering music well beyond his 18 years.
On Friday, Feb. 2, he'll play an EP release party at Kreuzberg (8 p.m.; all ages). One of his singles, "Better," is already getting some buzz, having been mentioned by music tastemakers Diamond Deposits. It's a song that takes listeners to unexpected places, and it established Wemple as an emotionally resonate sonic bard.
Of his EP's evocative title, Wemple says, "There is so much in our personal lives that seems disastrous to us, but it's all just a car crash from an aerial view. There's so much more than just what's on the surface."
This kid's got something to say, and it's worth listening to.
BLESSINGS FOR BOB Native Jamaican reggae artist Ras Danny, who now lives in SLO Town, will play his annual Bob Marley tribute concerts this week, on Feb. 2 at Frog and Peach; Feb. 5 at La Palapa; and Feb. 6 at SLO Brew.
It's Bob Marley's birthday this month, which means it's time for local Rastafarian hero Ras Danny to mount his annual tribute shows this Friday, Feb. 2, at Frog and Peach (10 p.m.; 21-and-older); Monday, Feb. 5, at La Palapa (5 p.m.); and on Bob's actual birthday, on Tuesday, Feb. 6, at SLO Brew (8 p.m.).
Ras Danny hails from Bob's hometown of Trenchtown, Kingston, Jamaica, and Bob was a teacher and mentor to Ras Danny, who in Bob's honor started the Annual Trenchtown Bob Marley Birthday and Life Celebration first held in the Trenchtown Culture Yard in 1982. The event is still going strong.
Before Bob died, he instructed Ras Danny specifically to help the neighborhood kids, so Ras Danny brings musical instruments to "ghetto youths" in Trenchtown, where his goal is to "educate and inspire them" through music, to "liberate them from gun violence."
Come on out to a show and celebrate Bob's message of love and hope.
Grover Beach United and Hank Barber of 805RockStock are hosting a fundraiser for the Thomas Fire and floods victims this Saturday, Feb. 3, at Mongo's Saloon (4 p.m.; $15 donation).

I loved my community college it was the perfect way to help me transition into the college life. It helped give me a clue on what to expect, taught me what I could handle and what I couldn't, and it taught me what I could do when I push myself. However at some point, it's time to move on to a four-year university. The idea of that terrified me.
Last year I started on my university search attempting to find the perfect college that fit what I aspire to do. They are so many possibilities it was a bit overwhelming. All community colleges have "sister" universities they try to direct the students to. Although that's the easier option I wanted a new scenery somewhere else. I looked for colleges near my siblings. At the time, I wanted to be a bit closer to the family. I complied a list of things every transferring student should consider if they don't want to attend the sister university of their current college.
It is inevitable college is expensive and some of us get scholarships and grants but, there is a chance it's still not enough to pay for college. Hello, student debt. So I recommend you compare the prices for all the colleges you're looking into as well as what types of scholarships they're offering you.
Note you can find a few scholarships of your own as well, there are even transfer scholarships available for students. My favorite site to go searching for scholarships is Unigo.com. They have really fun ones there and the site is very user-friendly. Don't forget to fill out your FAFSA every year in January and send it to the school of your choice. Not only do you need it to apply for financial assistance you might also need FAFSA information for scholarship applications.
2. Do they accept my credits or Nah!
This is a make or break factor for me. I don't want the years I spent in classes and late nighters going to waste because the university I want to attend won't accept my credits. So it's good to keep in mind not every school is going to accept your credits. Some universities have the option for you to search how your credits will transfer. If all else fails you can always call the admission office and see if an advisor can help explain it to you before making your decision.
3. Do you even have my major?
Of course, this is a must! Do they have all the possible major and minor programs you want to take? The original university I wanted to attend didn't have a marketing program. They told me to get a degree in business administration and I'd have a marketing class incorporated in that. Which is fairly different than an actually marketing degree program. Although, I was willing to overlook that setback because the school was amazing. I finally found a school that offers both a psychology and marketing degree program. I'm happy that I didn't have to sacrifice my goals and dreams. So my advice is to ensure they have the degree programs you want to study in.
The best way to tell if a school is a great suit for you is to visit the campus. Look out for transfer visit dates and open houses. I think those are the best times to go since you'll be with a group. It's nice to hear others questions about the campus you might have never thought about asking. As well as hearing others perspective about the campus. I'd suggest going with family and friends let them weigh in on what they think. As cliche as it may sound, there's always a feeling you get when you visit campuses like "this is home". So be sure to be asking yourself "Can I be happy living her for the next few years?"
Have a Plan A, B, and C. If your first choice turns out to be too expensive or something happens to change your mind. You need to have a backup school that you love just as much. I had three schools in mind that I wanted to transfer to. I ended up choosing one that wasn't even on my list. So it's great to keep an open mind and give yourself some choices.
What kind of deadlines should you be wary about? Application , scholarship, fee, and paperwork deadlines. For a school, I'm wanting to attend they have a deadline for when you need to have all your transcripts turned in, applying for housing, and etc. So make sure to look at the deadlines and add them to your calendar. I find it best if you make a checklist of everything you need and when they're due. Make sure to be marking off items on your list one step at a time. Some schools might even send you a premade checklist they've come up with everything you'd need to get done and by when. I'd take advantage of that.
There you have it six things you should consider when transferring universities. I know it may seem intimidating, time-consuming, and something you're dreading. When the process is all over it's definitely worth it. There are so many different schools to choose from. I hope you pick the school that best fits what you want now and where you want to be in the future.
What's your advice for transfering students?


It all feels a bit too congested.
Following yesterday's conclusion in Preston and victory for Barry Hawkins it's now the turn of Beijing to host the latest tournament in this frankly barking mad end of season snooker calendar, starting at 2.30am UK time on Monday morning.
This is usually a really good event, but the congestion this year in the calendar for me threatens to ruin it. It's wedged between the PTC Grand Finals and the start of the World Championship qualifiers and I'm sure a lot of these players would rather be practicing this week for their World Championship assault than playing in this.
I've made no secret of the fact that I think there is too much snooker, sometimes that's said tongue-in-cheek but this end of season madness I think proves my point. This is even before we get to the 2 day gap (one of which is a public holiday in the UK) between the world qualifiers finishing and the first day at The Crucible, leaving journalists, bookmakers and bloggers very little time to big our main event up. We need a minimum of a week in hand to really get the appetite of the public at large up to fever pitch, this year unfortunately it will all be a little rushed. Even the radio station that normally broadcasts the Crucible draw live isn't interested this year as reported here.
But, at least for this year, it is what it is and we all have to put up with these ludicrous decisions on timings. This madness shows no sign of stopping next season with some dates already announced, one of which sees the most financially lucrative tournament in China, the International Championship, finish the day before the Champion on Champions starts in Coventry. Unless Bazza has invented a teleporter for the finalists this is surely up there with one of the most ridiculous decisions in scheduling history in any sport, one or both of the finalists in China will probably be qualified to play in Coventry too unless Gerard Greene steps in again to save the day. Seriously, what are they thinking?
Looking ahead to Beijing, like I say it's a real shame that this is now being seen by some as an unwelcome distraction, but there is still a lot of dosh up for grabs and with Robbo, Selby and Ding (co-favourites for this) all being dumped out in Preston against the odds to get them over there, they'll be wanting to get back into the groove and enter the Crucible as the last ranking winner.
Of the three, I think it's Selby who has the best draw and he's the man I'll be backing to win this week. There may be a few doubts over Robbo if you believe that he wasn't too well last week, he's not had long to get over it and if you are feeling a bit ropey the last thing you need is a flight to the other side of the world. As for Ding, obviously he's a danger but I sense he's just beginning to slip a bit formwise lately and weirdly I think he'd benefit from an early exit in this. I actually think that winning this is probably more of a curse than a boost for Crucible chances, it's proved to be in the past anyway as nobody has ever won this and the World in the same season and given that I don't think Selby will win the World Championship, he ticks all the boxes.
Of the other hopefuls, the price on John Higgins remains attractive enough to have a punt at and after that I'll be looking at three outsiders in the shape of Graeme Dott, who hasn't won a tournament for donkey's years but seems to be playing OK and has won this before. I'll also risk a very small punt on two times champion Peter Ebdon and young buck Jack Lisowski, both of whom are capable of building a head of steam if things go their way.
It's also a big week for some players with regards to their own tour survival, not least Jimmy White who faces David Morris first up. Just a note that Tony Drago, Stuart Bingham and Stephen Maguire have all withdrawn, Bingham has a funeral to attend and therefore Martin O'Donnell progresses to the last 32, Maguire has a bad back giving Dave Harold a bye, no idea what's up with Drago, maybe he's slapped himself too hard again, but Alfie Burden is the beneficiary of his absence.
UPDATE: Barry Hawkins and Mark Allen have also withdrawn.
Oh yes, I almost forgot. Ban the Wildcards.
Recommended Bets: 3 points on Selby at 6/1 with Apollobet. 2 points on Higgins at 14/1 with Ladbrokes. 0.5 points each way on Dott (50/1 Apollobet), Lisowski (150/1 Sportingbet) and Ebdon (150/1 Corals).
First Round Bet (Best Prices in Brackets) 10 x 1 point doubles, 10 x 0.5 point trebles and a 1 point acca on McGill (7/4), Dunn (6/5), Advani (15/8), O'Brien (9/4) and Selt (7/4) – as a guide the acca pays 134/1 at Bet Victor.

Here is the line up for today which sees one of the remaining four carry off the £100,000 first prize. Bettingwise, the recommended 40/1 on Marco Fu carries hopes and you'd have to fancy him to make the final. I'd probably marginally favour Judd to win it but Marco is a battler so we'll wait and see. I'll be working on a China Open preview later as this starts in Beijing on Monday in this ridiculously congested calendar.
The final eight left are whittled down to four today ahead of the final day in Preston tomorrow and although we still have proven winners in the mix it is not beyond the realms of possibility that one of the players left will tomorrow have their biggest ever snooker payday.
Yesterday saw convincing performances from Mark Allen, John Higgins and Judd Trump as well as the man who might as well live under a radar Marco Fu. Barry Hawkins and Joe Perry are others who tend to sneak up on you when you least expect it and it wouldn't be a great surprise to see either of those two lifting the trophy and nabbing the £100,000 cheque at the end.
The two surprise names left are firstly Gerard Greene, who seems to win in spurts and then go back to losing ways, he played very well in Germany of course earlier in the season losing in the final of the Paul Hunter Classic to Ronnie and taking a few big scalps along the way, totally against the run of form. The other surprise name completing the last eight is Yu Delu of China who saw off his Grove practice partner Ronnie in a decider last night.
Despite Ronnie's assertion that Yu is a class act (the' Chinese Maguire' no less), the result must go down as a major surprise. I firmly believe that if Ronnie was at all bothered about this tournament he would not have lost last night, but he's been talking like it wasn't happening anyway and seems solely focused on Sheffield. He said afterwards that sometimes a loss does you good, it's certainly the case that if he'd have won this event the expectation for Sheffield would have increased further so perhaps this was his way of taking the pressure off himself a tad, who knows.
Ronnie is now committed to getting his game in order for the big one where he remains a very strong favourite with no reaction at all from the bookies on the back of last night's result, if anything he's got slightly shorter with a couple of firms and is still best priced 11/8 at Apollobet.
Two players who I think are playing themselves into form at the right time are Allen and Trump. Mark has been disappointing at the Crucible in the last few years and always seems to go into it as people's danger man, he's in danger of carrying that tag in there again but hopefully we'll see him at his best this time around. Judd can hardly be described as a dark horse but he's not been in the form that Robbo and Ding have, so an upturn in his form at the right time of the season is something of a first for him. He was a losing semi-finalist to Ronnie last year and won't have a lot of pressure on him this time so that could make him a real contender.
John Higgins proclaimed himself 10 times happier with his game after winning yesterday and says regardless of how he gets on in this he'll be feeling more confident than he has for a while going into the World Championship. He's not usually one to big himself up Higgins so when he does, it's probably a good idea to believe him. He'll be starting in the bottom half of the draw whatever happens in this, safely away from O'Sullivan.
The seedings for the Crucible are still uncertain with Hawkins, Trump, Higgins, Allen and Perry all in positions as yet undecided, but as things stand this is how it currently looks if all the seeds win their opening match at the Crucible.
The main battle grounds are a possible flip between Hawkins and Trump, Hawkins could also overtake Bingham depending on results, the possibility that Higgins can overtake Maguire and that both Allen and/or Perry could still overtake Ali Carter, Dark Mavis and even Ricky Walden. This will all depend on what happens over the next 48 hours.
Anyway, here's the quarter final line up with the head to heads. We still have the main recommended 2 point each way on Allen at 10/1 and the smaller recommended each way on Marco at 40/1, so wins for the two of them today should guarantee a winning week, despite the careless loss on the Ronnie special.
Predicted Winners: Allen, Trump, Fu, Hawkins.
Thursday in Preston sees the last 16 players compete down to the final 8 and the evening in particular looks to be very decent with Ronnie on first followed by Judd Trump against Shaun Murphy, hopefully ensuring a decent crowd at this superb venue.
After the exits of a few of the more fancied players on Tuesday, Wednesday restored some type of order although the defeat of China Open poster boy Mark Selby means that all the top 4 ranked players in the world are out. Robbo, Ding and Mark now all freed up to do the pre-tournament promotion in Beijing, of which the sponsors are so fond.
Ronnie, who of course skips China was workmanlike rather than brilliant in dispensing with Scott Donaldson, who looked unfortunately like so many professionals do when they come up against our Ron these days, I think he has the vast majority of them beaten days before the match in some cases.
There are still some big hitters left though and the likes of Mark Allen, John Higgins,Trump and Murphy as well as dark horses like Marco Fu and Barry Hawkins will all be trying to stop the momentum of O'Sullivan in his last competitive event before he breaks off on the opening day at the Crucible, in just over 4 weeks time after a nice rest.
I also managed to catch Ronnie's new show and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. Not that I thought he'd put out any old garbage, but it was genuinely interesting in many ways. First off, we got to see the inside of his flat, which looked predictably laddish and the perfect batchelor's retreat. I reckon he's either got a cleaner or is OCD as it looked spotless as he invited the gloriously quaffed haired Andy Goldstein in for a coffee and a natter.
The analysis of his 147 was a particular highlight of the show, with Andy on hand with the remote as Ronnie pointed at the screen. I was particularly taken when Ronnie admitted to already having watched it a couple of times, I wonder how many professionals would have opted for the honest answer rather than the 'too cool for school' lie that this was the first time they'd seen it? Anyway, this offered a rare insight into his snooker mind and thought process and Andy did a sterling job with the remote with not a hair out of place by the end.
We then cut to see Ron chatting with Joel Walker, leaving him with the idea that one day they might meet in a final, we'll wait and see on that one. He then sat down with Robbo in a cafe for another gab while loads of people moved around in the background waiting for them to piss off so they could close up and go home.
Ronnie immediately started on the mind games saying that the 100 hundreds that Robbo is currently mildly obsessed with would be an 'unwelcome distraction' for him, Robbo immediately admitted that he has lost one or two frames going for it instead of focussing on winning. Robbo Senior isn't helping either banging on about it all the time on the phone from home and there is still a big chance that he won't get to the magic 100 with matches running out.
But it was all about Ronnie really and as he asks Neil about advice he received from Hendry, he refers to Stephen as 'probably the best player ever' knowing full well that he isn't. Robbo then turns on the charm and tries to switch it by complimenting Ronnie on his fitness to which Ronnie fakes embarrassment, you won't get round our Ron that easily Neil. The interview concludes with Smiling Assassin Ronnie saying ominously 'I might see you in Sheffield' hoping that if they do meet, the interview will be repeated. What he doesn't know is that Eurosport are leading the way in the repeat stakes and we'll all have seen it 357 times and know it word for word before then anyway.
Finally, Ronnie gives us tips on bridge, stance and cue action. He reveals that, like countless other players of his generation he always plays with the plaque of the cue facing upwards, because that is what Steve Davis did. He tells us a bit more about how he addresses the cue ball and says it's worked for him and that 'he hasn't done too bad', you can say that again. So all in all a great start and hopefully the shows that follow will be even better.
Anyway, back to matters in hand and Ronnie is back in action tonight against Yu Delu, which is followed on Eurosport by Trump and Murphy. The afternoon TV matches are Fu against MJW and Allen against The Ferginator.
Recommended Bet: 2 point treble on Fu, Hamilton and Hawkins pays almost bang on 7/2 at Bet Victor.
My mate Steve could be in big trouble.
Here's today's line up of first round matches over in Preston.
Robbo and Ding both fell at the first hurdle yesterday. Robbo, complaining of feeling unwell (perhaps preparing his sick note for China as we speak?) lost out to Shaun Murphy and Ding managed to somehow lose to Ben Woollaston from 3-0 up, but at least he's now freed up to do the promo work over in China ahead of next Monday's start in Beijing, no doubt to the delight of the sponsors. Funny how these things work out.
There were also wins for John Higgins, Anthony Hamilton, Gerard Greene, Judd Trump, Marco Fu and Mark Williams who all progress to Round 2 tomorrow, with Trump against Murphy the obvious stand out tie.
In terms of how yesterday's results have altered World Championship bits and bobs, Ding will now start the World Championship in the same half as Ronnie O'Sullivan and lower down the list the win for Greene means that the legend that is Steve Davis is on the brink of losing his tour place unless he can get himself into gear in the World Championship qualifiers, the end of an era perhaps? We shall see.
Anyway, here is today's line up. Just click on the match for the head to head record where one exists.
The PTC Grand Finals kick off today in Preston, below you will find the running order and if you click the matches you'll find the head to head stats where one exists.
Here is the Eurosport schedule and here is my preview.
Tuesday sees the start of a frantic end to the snooker season as the PTC Grand Finals begin at the Guild Hall in Preston, once the traditional home of the UK Championship and a welcome late addition to the venue calendar this season.
After this event has finished there is just a two day rest period before the China Open kicks off in Beijing. Following this and after a further two days off the qualifiers for the World Championship start, they finish on the 16th April and just three days later the big one starts at the Crucible. So it truly is wall-to-wall snooker from Tuesday right up to the point when we'll know who is this year's World Champion on May 5th. Time to get the 'burn-out' excuses ready for some?
This tournament of course is the culmination of the 8 European and 4 (ermmm) 'Asian' events (China holding 4 and the other 50 countries in Asia not holding any) which dominated the early season. The 24 top players from the European list and the 8 top players from the China list are now drawn together at this historic snooker venue to battle it out for the big prizes, with a tasty 100 bags of sand on offer for the winner.
You can find the draw for the tournament (if you can't read the poster above) here and it will be covered extensively on Eurosport. This is also a big event in deciding the jostling order for the World Championship, not just the top 16 order but also the rounds that a few lower down the list will start in. Matt explains all that and more here and my more simplistic excuse for an effort about the top 16 only and how this tournament will affect the seedings in Sheffield is here.
Double Trouble? 13/2 not to be beaten for the rest of the season.
Ronnie O'Sullivan is a best priced 5/2 favourite with Apollobet (he's as short as 13/8 with Bet 365) who are also offering 13/2 on him winning both this and the World Championship, which I think is probably worth throwing a few quid at given the confident noises he's been making lately about his form and general love of the sport.
I wouldn't back him for the Crucible at his current odds but at least this bet gives you half a chance of collecting from a modest stake should he make it the procession that many are predicting in Sheffield, where he is obviously the man they all have to raise their standards to compete with.
He proved in Wales that best of 7's aren't an issue for him as he has before in PTC's. I actually think this format really suits him and wouldn't be surprised to see him pocketing the big cheque at the end. If he does, watch his Crucible price shorten even further, then you can lay a bit off if you are so inclined. If you want to take advantage of this price click here before they take it down – click the middle tab at the top 'O'Sullivan PTC/World Championship Double'.
In terms of other outright betting on this, Ladbrokes had some gloriously hapless early each-way odds a few days ago which were swiftly corrected once the odds compiler had stopped sniffing glue. I know a few people got on some of these ludicrously high prices on the likes of Dark Mavis, Barry Hawkins, Liang Wenbo, Michael Holt and I dare say a few others. If any of them get to the final of this, he might be joining the ranks of the unemployed and zero hours contracts come the weekend. He's had a shocker already to be fair.
There is one real belter in the first round as Robbo takes on the in-form Shaun Murphy and it's just a shame for me that they haven't extended the matches in the Grand Finals to the best of 9 rather than 7. It would have been a great time to pilot best of nines without the intervals to hurry play along a bit. 5 minute comfort break after say 6 frames I think would suffice, which would also mean that any one-sided matches would be over without the need for an interval. The best of 7's add that extra element of uncertainty at this level which does generally dissuade me and probably lots of others from getting involved too much in the match betting.
That said, I reckon there may be a few nerves here from the less familiar venue players which might play into the hands of the bigger names who are more used to the big stage. Hopefully, the Guild Hall can bring a real sense of occasion and grandeur to this event and establish itself as a more permanent venue on the tour as a whole. I really hope the crowds turn out for this to justify the late switch as it's great to have a major championship back in the North West of England.
Take a look at Dave Hendon's five best ever Preston Guild Hall matches by clicking here, I sagged off school to go to the first one on the list with the late Snookerbacker Senior, I think I'm safe to divulge that now. Great days.
Here's some bets and the match schedule for the first round.
2 points each way on Mark Allen at 10/1 with Stan James.
0.5 points each way on Marco Fu at 40/1 with Bet 365.
1 point on Neil Robertson at 14/1 with Corals.
3 points first round acca: Ding, Higgins, Trump, Wenbo, O'Sullivan and Allen pays over 11/4 at Apollobet.
It's not perfect, but it's home.
According to this Chinese website, the Chairman of the WPBSA Jason Ferguson has given his clearest indication yet that the World Championship will soon be on its way to China.
Responding to a question from Gan Lianfang, vice-chairman of the Chinese Billiards and Snooker Association and president of Beijing-based Xingpai Group, which sponsors a few of the big name players, Ferguson said he envisaged the championships one day moving to China.
"Five years ago, snooker was basically only played in Western countries, but today I am happy to see it is becoming a truly global sport, China is now hosting one third of all international competition and snooker has a very solid base here, but for some reason the oldest and most traditional event, the world championships, still hasn't come to China. But that is something worth expecting," he said.
As anyone who has read this blog regularly will know this is something that I personally am dead against. Jason himself calls the event 'the oldest and most traditional' of them all, there is an obvious reason for this, it has a recognised and permanent home in Sheffield, which we should fight tooth and nail to maintain.
OK, The Crucible isn't a perfect venue, but it remains snooker's spiritual home and I can think of nothing worse than uprooting all the great memories this place holds to give China a shot at doing it better.
There are 5 big events now in China, why move the biggest and best of them all over there too? I genuinely hope that Jason has been misquoted but I fear that he may not have been and that in the end, money will triumph over values and tradition, which would be very sad for the sport.
For me at least, a move such as this would signal the beginning of the end of my interest in the professional game, there are some things that are untouchable and in my personal opinion, this is one of them. Let's leave this one piece of history alone, it's all we seem to have left.
It's the news a lot of us were expecting and today World Snooker have announced that Dafabet, the online betting and gaming company based in the Phillipines, will sponsor the World Snooker Championship at the Crucible which starts on April 19th.
A can almost hear the chorus of disapproval amongst the snooker community as once again World Snooker have failed to secure a sponsor from outside of the betting industry and I can't say that I'm too surprised at this reaction.
Aside from the usual blurb spouted at announcements like these from Bazza and whoever he's been dealing with, the underlying fact is that once again the sport has failed to attract a really global brand to sponsor its biggest event. This will be seen by many as Barry Hearn's one big failure since taking over snooker, he did after all state that he wanted to attract big name sponsors from other sectors.
Despite the fact that this is a blog which is heavily focused towards betting, I still hold the interests of snooker mostly at heart. It does not take a genius to work out that the sport is heavily reliant on the gambling industry, let's just hope this reliance doesn't end up being its downfall. The deal with Dafabet, like the one with Betfair last year is for one year only.
In the meantime, let's look forward to the World Championship.
Following Shaun Murphy's World Open win today we are now just one tournament away from knowing how the seeds will line up at the Crucible, which starts in just under five weeks time. This is currently how the draw looks if all the seeds win their first round matches.
It is however, highly likely that there will be some shifts in the order following the PTC Grand Finals which start on the 25th March. The draw for that was released a couple of days ago and can be viewed on the World Snooker PDF (don't laugh) by clicking here.
Matt of course is the King of the Rankings and you can take your own view on how things are likely to change by clicking here and viewing the points each player currently has.
By my reckoning all the names above are now safely in the Crucible draw, it's just the running order that is at stake. There are only 3000 points for the winner of the PTC Grand Finals at stake so that makes Joe Perry safe from being caught by Mark Williams, who would have been the only threat. This will also be a relief for Ali Carter, who hasn't qualified for the Preston event, the only one of the names above who hasn't. However you'd think he will be keen to see first round exits for Perry and Allen, to avoid falling into 15th, or worse still, 16th seeded position. I reckon he'd fancy a second rounder against Selby in the bottom half more than Robbo or Ronnie, that is of course assuming Selby is not overtaken by Ding.
So, the qualifiers will include names like Mark Williams, Matthew Stevens, Graeme Dott, Khalid Abumdas and Robert Milkins, all of whom you would think will fancy their chances of upsetting a seed in the first round, apart from one of them.
Some to note perhaps: Wenbo & Stevens 150/1, Milkins & Lisowski 200/1, Michael White 250/1, Gould 250/1, Dale 500/1, Mehta 750/1, Pengfei 750/1, Steve Davis 1000/1, Jimmy White 1500/1, Abumdas – any price you like.

It's Monday. Time for Simply Joy.
I tell you what... nothing has brought me more joy over the past two weeks than this man's music. I can not stop listening to it. I can not stop singing it. The words run through my head as I sleep. The nananananana's are rolling out of my mouth upon waking. I have not seen an artist that has moved me like this in—hmmmmmm—ever.
The more I hear of his music, the deeper I fall into it.
Or try this one. The soul of the music shines through profoundly here, friends.
I'm not done yet. Check out this most fantastic Sam Cooke cover. Good God this is great!
Now if you've made it this far, you're in for a special treat. This next song ROCKS. I've been somewhat paralyzed in performing my daily duties thanks to this song. I try to leave the house, but I can't stop dancing, singing, and proclaiming my love of life... over and over and over again. Wow. What is happening to me?
I could not find a video that does justice to the blow-your-mind quality of this song. So here's the audio. Turn it up. And jam.
Hi Judith, I'm new to your blog, so maybe it's user error, but I don't see your video/audio for Gavin DeGraw... I agree completely with your commentary though, so I would love to see what you're watching/listening to!
Welcome. So glad you're here. The videos can be fidgety sometimes.
For instance, they don't come through at all with the Feedburner Email Subscription, so if you're receiving my blog posts straight to your email box you likely won't see the videos.
Additionally, they won't play on my iPhone because of the lack of flash support on Apple's mobile devices, so you won't play them there either even if you're on my website.
The only surefire way to see the video content I post is to click through the links straight to the Dance While You Cook website from a real computer.
I hope my answer provides some insight into why you can't see the embedded YouTube/Vevo content. Be in touch if you still can't get to the videos and I'll send you links. These Gavin videos are too good to miss.
Did I say fidgety? Wow! I meant finicky, fussy or persnickety. Not fidgety. Multitasking often leads to a few of my brain cells getting left behind.
