They were a little teary eyed after a long season. They were 11-0 and lost the very last Super Bowl game. I guess it's a lesson you learn early in life (they are 10 years old) pull your socks up and try again next year :)

More death... this from my last day in Memphis last month. (With a hat tip to my friend/conference roomie Arie for telling me about it.)
Sir Haytham's victory over the Sea Beast was hollow and bitter. To kill a knight of such valour was not his intention when he started this rebellion. He wanted a stronger Thronfeld. One that would sail to the aid of it's Swakuran allies, and ride south into the Bloody Marches to end the Attonight threat. The King was weak, and Haytham could not understand why so many were willing to die for such a leader. Should he survive the Shining Stream down to the Marsh, he would have to decide where to go next. He knew he would never find peace west of the Giant's Tear, no matter how close a friend was Lord Pyrseus. He did not want to go to the Western Cities, as there he could only be a mercenary with no no land nor standing. He then realized, an enemy of an enemy could be a friend. He had heard that The Emperor of Attenor had grown mad and that many wanted to crown his son, who was reported to be a skilled swordsman with an even temper. If Sir Haytham declared for the son, and the Emperor were to die, her'd havea powerful ally. Perhaps Haytham's dreams of a stronger Thronfeld could come to be, but the crown may have to be his.

I have a wheel bearing going. Subaru part nearing £500 but with effort, found a pattern one for £123. Unfortunately the 32mm driveshaft nut beat us as the socket we had did not go deep enough. Needs a specific 12 point one.

Several weeks ago, I'd found my first ever Japanese rhinoceros beetles fighting on this same tree. I was really surprised to see that they were still here and still battling away. The tree is starting to look a little worse for wear now.

I give up.
I tried to stand up for myself, and I was made to be the bad guy.
I give in and let myself be walked all over, and give what is wanted, and I am still the bad guy.
I am chastised for my inexperience, but when I beg for help told I am doing fine.
I feel like I am not given a chance to prove what I keep trying to say and DO.
I hear hear hear but have yet to see.
I am not listened to.
My thoughts are not considered, or called ridiculous.
I am not unreasonable. Far from it.
It is okay for me to stand up for myself,
since I don't see anyone else doing it.
I don't know what else to do.
But they can't get rid of me that easily.
They have already won in some ways but they will not win in what they want most.
I am not going to disappear.
I just wish I did not feel so alone, helpless, unloved, and forgotten.
50 Random Facts About Me
#6: I am not jealous of Dave's ex-wife, especially considering how much interaction we (well, he) has with her. I have no worries that he will ever want her back. And while I do not worry about Dave pining away for his ex, I worry that he will decide someone else is better than me, and more worth the effort.

LA DERROTA.
Monumento de la Cruz Roja a los Soldados repatriados de Cuba y Filipinas que murieron en Vigo
Desde el 2 de septiembre de 1898, el puerto de Vigo comenzó a recibir barcos cargados con las tropas españolas que habían sido derrotadas en la isla caribeña por los yanquis y los insurgentes cubanos. No fue un retorno triste, fue dramático. Trágico. El estado de los militares era lamentable. No sólo fueron derrotados por la incapacidad del gobierno para dirigir una guerra a larga distancia, sino que fueron masacrados por las enfermedades tropicales. De los cincuenta y cinco mil hombres que fallecieron en Cuba entre 1895 y 1898, sólo algo más de dos mil tuvieron una muerte causada por la acción de su enemigo.
Los barcos eran trasladados al lazareto de San Simón para superar un período de cuarentena, pero los enfermos más graves eran trasladados por la Cruz Roja al sanatorio que instalaron frente el municipal de Elduayen. Allí fueron tratadas 107 personas, de las cuales 20 murieron.
En total, en Vigo fueron enterrados 153 soldados y oficiales, muchos de los cuales no pudieron ser identificados. Los entierros se produjeron en tumbas individuales del cementerio de Pereiró. Pero, la Cruz Roja tuvo la idea de realizar un mausoleo donde descansasen los restos de todos estos soldados y que, al mismo tiempo, sirviese como homenaje a las víctimas de la aquella guerra colonial, en su gran mayoría procedentes de clases populares (los ricos pagaban entre 1.200 y 2.000 pesetas por librarse de ir a la guerra).
La ONG solicitó al Concello de Vigo la cesión de un terreno en el cementerio municipal y habilitó un presupuesto para realizar la obra. En principio, iba a realizar esta obra Jenaro de la Fuente pero su proyecto superaba las 7.000 pesetas presupuestas por la Cruz Roja. Así que fue Julio González Pola el autor del mausoleo.
En el año 1912 fueron trasladados a este mausoleo todos los restos de los soldados expedicionarios fallecidos en Vigo. Aquella actitud de los vigueses fue recompensada por el gobierno español con la ampliación del lema de la ciudad, que quedará a partir de entonces como «Valiente, leal y siempre benéfica».

"No, there is neither defeat nor victory for me!
Because I have already decided that victory will always be with me.
Defeat remains for the others:
With those who moan when they fall,
With those who cry when they are torn"
(part of the poem by. Sutan Takdir Alisjahbana (STA) 4 Mei 1944)
snatching defeat from the jaws of victory?
this landscape represents a virtual 100% defeat for the indigenous biological communities of south australia - but what have we (the victors) gained?
biodiversity has crashed from hundreds of plants and dozens of animals to half a dozen exotic weeds supporting a monoculture of sheep
the topsoil washed away decades ago, or blew across the tasman sea to stain the snowcaps of new zealand's alps pink (this actually happens!)
now as we experience the worst drought ever recorded in southern australia, we are faced not just with economic disaster, but with a landscape where the original vegetatation has been 95% removed, and so discover that we have no biological capital to fall back on! this landscape is not robust - as the state heats up and dries out, where will the few remaining original species go - how will they cross these vast, barren wastelands?
i am not blaming the pastoralists - almost all of the ones i've met have sincerely wanted to undo the damage done in earlier eras when it was assumed the europeanization of australia was not only inevitable, it was god ordained!
in fact, the entire australian community bears the responsibility for finding a new way of living with this most ancient of lands, rather than despite it...
