Chelsea made it two wins from two in the Premier League following Jose Mourinho’s return as they edged Aston Villa 2-1 at Stamford Bridge. After a comfortable opening win against Hull City, the visitors from the Midlands posed a far stiffer test to Mourinho’s title hopefuls and they will be relieved to have come away with their perfect record intact.
Villa came into the match after their own fine victory at the weekend -- 3-1 at Arsenal -- and responded well to going behind through Antonio Luna unwittingly deflecting the ball into his own net. Christian Benteke made it three goals in two games right before half-time to show why Villa were so desperate to keep the Belgian in the summer.
Still, Chelsea were able to get the three points with a header from Branislav Ivanovic 17 minutes from time. Whether Ivanovic should have been on the pitch at that point, however, is a highly arguable point after the Serbian looked to have caught Benteke with a deliberate elbow. Villa will also be left ruing a late penalty appeal being turned down for what appeared a clear handball from John Terry,
Chelsea had begun in almost unstoppable fashion against Hull on Sunday and they again started well at Stamford Bridge as Mourinho’s return continued to create a fine atmosphere at Stamford Bridge. Within just seven minutes they were in front. Oscar slipped a neat ball into Eden Hazard down the left of the area and the Belgian cut inside before curling a shot toward the far corner that Brad Guzan saved but only to see the ball come back off the chest of Luna and into the net.
Villa had been beaten 8-0 at Stamford Bridge last season in match that represented the nadir of their troubled season. Yet, it was also a contest that manager Paul Lambert believes his young side learned a lot from and will help ensure a better campaign this time around. There was certainly evidence of that development as they got back on level terms against the title favorites right on the stroke of half time.
Gabriel Agbonlahor had too much pace for Ivanovic down the left and fed a low ball into the near post that Benteke collected and, given too much space by John Terry, was able to fire a crisp left-footed shot low past Petr Cech.
The visitors could have gone in front in the second half too as Andreas Weimann went close. It certainly appeared that Villa should have been given a numerical advantage when Ivanovic took a look at Benteke and then aimed an elbow at his head during a challenge for a ball. Much to Lambert’s anger on the sideline, referee Kevin Friend produced only a yellow card.
And Lambert’s frustration was about to get even worse. Just minutes after he should have been off the pitch, Ivanovic rose to head Frank Lampard’s free-kick into the net. When a clear handball from Terry was not spotted in the closing moments, Villa knew it was not to be there night.

Virtual Tours and Panoramic Images of Hotels, Travel Destinations, Property and Events
More than just a panorama photographer
"The ability to show our clients the full views and room layout is great for our business. This has increased clients confidence when booking and puts us a step ahead of our competition.
Bruce was careful to make sure that we ended up with exactly what we required technically to enable a smooth installation of the tours into our website."
Grenadine Island villas
A long term relationship
At Calabash in Grenada we have dealt with Bruce Hemming for several years and most of our public images have been shot by Bruce and I am glad that we have added panoramas which are a great feature. Bruce is very easy to deal with, has a wealth of knowledge and I hope that we will continue to work together for many years to come.
The Calabash Hotel
Helping to make an impact
Firstly, I just wanted to say how INCREDIBLE the tour is, your panoramas are so vibrant and so full of life. It’s really fantastic. My huge thanks to you and Sally.
Zanzibar International Hotel
Interpreting our aesthetic
We have worked with Bruce Hemming for the past seven years; indeed Bruce has taken the majority of photographs which we use for publicity and promotional purposes, including our website. His photographs, and especially his interactive panoramas, help bring our projects to life and accurately represent our aesthetic.

Hospital Partner News Category Archives
Mid-America Transplant Services opened in December the Family House, a 10-apartment wing of The Lofts at the Highlands. It was dedicated to longtime board member and Donor Family, Bob and Marge Murphy, and offers comfortable, safe and affordable housing for pre- and post-transplant patients who must locate to St. Louis to be near their transplant center hospital.
Mercy Hospital St. Louis was one of two Missouri hospitals recognized by the Missouri Hospital Association with a Donate Life Award for its exceptional leadership in raising awareness of organ and tissue donation and transplantation.
Jean Day was attending a seminar at Mid-America Transplant Services when she first learned of hospitals raising and flying Donate Life flags. The Director of Emergency Services at Anderson Hospital in Maryville, Illinois considered her facility’s campus and was inspired to raise a Donate Life flag there.
In working with 120 hospitals, Mid-America Transplant Services is proud to recognize the efforts of our hospital partners. In recent years, many of our partners have started donor councils, groups designed to educate staff and the public, and ensure every family is given the opportunity to donate their loved one’s organs and tissue. While the constant in each example below is the passionate people behind the donor council, these examples show how different models, goals and approaches can be successful. We’re excited to share their best practices.
When Sarah Tuley was four years old and in need of a cornea transplant because a virus took her vision, her grandmother gave her a little baby doll to overcome her fear of surgery. Now a 19-year-old college freshman, she is sharing her message of encouragement, hope and comfort with “Life Bears.”
Through the generosity of donor families, MTS unites with physicians, nurses, and other partners to save more lives in our communities. This selfless act inspires the staff of MTS, and compels us to create a meaningful donation experience for all potential and actual donor families.
Over the past several years MTS has charted a steady course for excellence. By the generosity of donor families, and through the dedication of our staff and the many physicians, nurses, and partners, we continue our journey in 2011 to save even more lives.
Hospitals in the MTS region found creative ways to spread awareness of the benefits of organ and tissue donation during Donate Life month in April.
“Visibility helps jumpstart the conversation.” Peggy Wobbema, a Chaplain in the Pastoral Care Department at CoxHealth South in Springfield, talks passionately about raising a Donate Life flag in front of her hospital. “It’s there every day, right under our hospital flag,” she says. “What I want the community to ask themselves every time they see the flag is, ‘Am I signed up?’ and ‘What do I believe about organ and tissue donation?’ It’s a daily chance to trigger thoughts and questions about the process and benefits of donation.”

How to make a girl like you
Welcome to this very interesting topic of the day which is how to make a girl like you😍. We have our brothers in the sweet boys association of Nigeria to thank for this amazing tips .
The tips you are about to read is not only meant for the males, but females can also learn a lot from this, especially as it regards to initiating a relationship between the two genders.
So let’s get straight to the talk of the day👇
Tips on How to make a girl like you
1. Talk to her: The first step to making any girl like you is to engage with the lady. Girls hardly fall in love 😍 with a stranger. Therefore if you need to get a chance you need to talk to her first.
No one will love to be in a relationship with a stranger so you can start talking by visiting the places you see her more often. It can be a coffee shop, a salon, her workplace or even at the cinema.
This way your chances of talking to her is increased, and get to talk to her more often.
Read this post on Top 10 shocking weight loss transformation
2. Look neat: First impression matters a lot, the moment you approach a lady, she access your appearance instantly. If you fail her first assessment, it will be very difficult to get such a lady to like you.
To that effect, it is very crucial you look very neat and presentable. If you are a bearded man, it is advised you trim your beards so good and neat.
ladies love guys with a good set of teeth, so make sure to clean up your teeth and put on a good cologne too.
If you are in a low cut, make sure you brush your hair thoroughly.
Iron your cloth and dress properly and responsibly.
These few tips I mentioned above are part of what you should do to look neat.
3. Make her happy/laugh: you must be wondering why popular comedians get married easily to beauty queens. The secret is not in their looks, most of them are not very good looking just like some members of sweet boys association.
The secret is in their jokes, women love jokes. They easily fall in love 😍 with whoever makes them happy. Want to win her heart? Then be like a comedian.
Even if you are not that funny in nature, if you do certain things together such as seeing a movie together, it won’t be long before she finds happiness in you.
Hot tip: watch funny movies together more often eg rampages, ride along, the gods must be crazy, Mr brown etc.
4. Be her friend: As I mentioned earlier, ladies hardly fall for strangers. They feel insecure to establish that bond with someone they don’t know yet. So if you want her to like you, then absolutely you should make her your friend.
Find a way to always be by her side to be able to catch her attention. It will be easier if the girl you love is in the same class or university or even the same work as yours.
Don’t force things, girls hate that so much, start small and take things a step at a time.
5: Compliment her: If you really like someone and will love to get that love back, one of the best ways to start is a compliment.
The moment you notice something new about her looks don’t hesitate to compliment her. For instance, you notice her new hairstyle or her dressing, compliment her right there.
Be specific in your compliment, if it is her cologne you like tell her right there that you love her cologne. If it is her make up do the needful too.
Hot tip: girls love to receive compliments of qualities that make them unique. Such unique qualities can be her accent, the way she walks.
More tips on how to make a girl like you
6. Impress her: Do certain things that will impress the girl you will love to get her attention. Ladies love men with impressive skills. I mean handyman skills like fixing pipes, repairing home stuff or even professional skills like football, basketball and the rest of them.
Showcase those skills that make you very unique and I bet you she will have no option than to be in love with you.
Hot tip: Stay original and be yourself even when you want to impress her. Just be yourself.
Congratulations if you read up to this point, it shows you really want to know How to make a girl like you. Click HERE for my give away
7. Make her feel important: Gender aside, every human love to be treated with respect. Naturally, we feel happy when we know that we are loved and held in high esteem by someone. Girls are no exception to this rule, they will love you more when they feel loved.
Make all your actions show her that you care and cherish her. Make her breakfast, show her off to your friends or even your family members. She will love you even more than she loves you when she feels that she is very dear to your heart.
8. Be romantic: Don’t be too focused on making her love you so fast while leaving behind the major ingredient, Romance.
Being romantic means acknowledging how special a person is, and that means demonstrating that you know––better than anyone else in the world—–what makes her unique.
Pay attention when she’s talking! Keep a mental list of things that she loves and that makes her unique. What are her quirky (perhaps secret) interests, obsessions, and fantasies? What makes her eyes light up? Girls are quick to notice if you remember things they told you a long while ago.
9. Be yourself: Nothing beats originality. People will love you for who you are and not who you are trying to be. Love lasts longer when you are original and do things you love doing.
I suggest you read this article on How to ask a guy out without sounding desperate. I hope it helps too.
Final words on How to get a girl to like you.
At this point, I think you should have learned from the tips and hot tips on how to get a girl to like you. The most important thing in each step you take is to be original and no matter what a girl will always love you for who you are.
There is always a type of woman for every man.
I wish you good luck in your bid to getting that lady after your own heart.

"PAUL WESTERBERG" - NEW SINGLE OUT NOW
NEW SINGLE OUT NOW
Wohoo! The third single from the upcoming album »Sisyphus Rock« is out as of today. A music video will follow shortly!
I WROTE this song in a drafty attic in Sundsvall. It was one of those songs that just came out like a sneeze and was finished within 20 minutes. I recorded a demo the following day with Tony K in his garage studio in Sundsvall (thank you!).
IT FELT logical and goddamn NECESSARY to write a song with this title as Paul wrote the savage heartbreaker »Alex Chilton« for his band The Replacements. (Alex was power pop poet laureate and legendary singer in Big Star AND The Box Tops - remember how your mother used to listen to »The Letter«?)
Big Star -> The Replacements -> Bedroom Eyes. That’s the succession order. In my head only, but that doesn’t matter.
I don’t want to meet my idols (I met Kerstin Ekman once but that went fine, thankfully!) and I’m convinced Westerberg would hate both me and the song. He most certainly would put me in a headlock and rub a bald spot in my hair had I written a song about him.
But this song is not about Paul. If you’re reaching for something or someone that doesn’t reach back - stop reaching. That’s the core of it.
(In all honesty - I had that word play in the chorus first and then built the song around it.)
KENNETH Ishak (our brilliant friend) sings backing vocals and recorded them himself at Observatoriet, Oslo. Kim Fastesson plays guitar and sings the »aah« in the chorus, Emil Fritzson-Lindqvist plays the drums (like life itself depended on it!) and percussion, Markus Eriksson plays guitar, Mattias Andersson plays the bass. I sing lead vocals and played acoustic guitar until I almost had a panic attack. Markus and I produced it. It was recorded live in studio in November 2020 at Rissna City in Rissna, Sweden by Robin Lindqvist.
THE COVER is made by Robert Samsonowitz (how brilliant is this guy?) and is comprised by analogue pictures from the recordings in Rissna.
The album drops February 25 and there's a super sweet pre-order deal at Startracks web shop - the new "Sisyphus Rock" vinyl plus "Greetings from Northern Sweden" for 299 kr. That's 70 kr for "Greetings..."! Hurry up, hurry up!

Today I’m featuring Magical Memories Travel
Hello! My name is Chelsey and I currently reside in beautiful Boise, Idaho. I graduated from Boise State University (yes the one with the blue turf) in 2003 with a Bachelor of Business Administration Marketing. I used that degree to work in retail for over 14 years. I married my high school sweetheart in 2004 and we have 3 beautiful children. Our family loves Disney and what a special place it is for us. We see it as a time where we can be together and just leave the rest of the world behind. Some of my most treasured memories come from watching the fireworks with my husband, seeing my daughter become a princess, and my son meet Mickey for the first time.
We have traveled to Disney World 6 times in the last 10 years and been able to experience a multitude of the events Disney has to offer. This includes our Honeymoon, Star Wars Weekends,the Flower and Garden Festival, Holidays, 2011 Marathon (which my husband successfully completed…sorry had to brag), and the Food and Wine Festival. I have successfully planned vacations for couples, multi generational families, families with teens, and families with young children. I also have experience planning for those traveling with food allergies.
And as much as we love Disney we have experienced a number of off property attractions including Sea World, Discovery Cove, Busch Gardens, Kennedy Space Center, Universal Studios, and Islands of Adventure.
When I travel I’m the everything but the kitchen sink kind of mom and pay close attention to detail. I will spend countless hours researching hours, dining, weather, crowd levels, rides, and what resort will work best. I will ensure you and your family have the most magical vacation possible. I will do everything from plan and book your full vacation and make your ADR’s. Itinerary planning is available upon request to make sure no one misses their favorite ride or character. Feel free to contact me anytime with questions and I look forward to making your memories magical.

I am not gonna lie, I am pretty jealous that you guys got to spend a weekend in St. George. I would kill for some nice dry heat! I'm getting a little tired of being wet and cold;) But things are looking up here the sun has been out occasionally and the spring flowers are starting to bloom. I absolutely cannot wait to see Wales in the Spring. It's gonna be good.
Well this week has been fairly uneventful. It is Easter Break at the university so all of our investigators packed up and went home for 3 weeks. The town that once had a population of 20,000 has now gone down to 10,000 and it feels like a ghost town. Needless to say I miss the students! But we did get to take a trip down to Swansea for interviews with President Rasmussen. My love for that man continues to grow everyday and it was really nice to get to talk to him. He is the greatest.
Along with a trip to Swansea we also power washed one of our investigators decks. That was good fun! Her name is Shirley and she is super cool. She is a great cook and whenever we go over she has always made some delicious dessert for us! My favourite is her coconut cookies Mmmmm they are probably the best coconut cookies I've tasted. Dad would love them:)
But other than endless hours of finding in the rain not much has happened. Besides me learning a lot of patience along with many other things. But I think what I've learned the most this week is that people are very quick to forget the spirit and the blessings that God gives to them. I've been reading the Book of Mormon cover to cover with our investigator Tom, we are both gonna finish by April 10th the day that Tom gets back from break. So during my spare time (Lunch and Dinner) you can find me reading my 13 pages a day until the 10th of April when we finish. I love the Book of Mormon. It is honestly the best book ever, and this time through I've really been noticing how often the Nephites or the Lamanites fall away or forget about the Spiritual expereinces that they have had. I've been thinking a lot about my own life and about my investigators and how often and how quick we are to forget. And I have blown my own mind. Honestly looking back on my spiritual experiences and looking back and seeing how blessed I am, I am appalled at how quick I have been to forget the Lord in my life. I've realized that when I have kept a journal or have made sure that I read my scriptures everyday that I'm a lot less likely to be so forgetful and I see now why they are so important. I wish I would have learned this earlier because I am sure that I have missed out on some really amazing experiences and blessings simply because I am so quick to forget where it all comes from.Why do we have the Book of Mormon? So we don't forget and so that we don't make the same mistakes that they did. Look at the Jaredites and how those records were translated and passed out to all the people so that they would not be so quick to forget. We need to learn from these things, we mostly just need to stop having memory loss and start remembering the Lord. So guys don't be quick to forget where it all comes from. Don't forget those spiritual experiences that you have, and when times get tough and doubts start entering into your mind remember the council of President Uchtdorf, "Doubt your Doubts before you Doubt your Faith." I would add to that, cling to your spiritual experiences, hold on to them with all of your might and when that doubt comes think back and remember how you felt. Don't be quick to forget.
Well enough of my ranting. Sometimes I just go off... But hey at least I'm learning something from it if nothing else. I hope you all are having a fantastic spring break and if you are not on spring break well that's too bad!
Love you all,

It’s so simple to cook pork steaks! Just follow the 6-2-2 cooking method and Ta-da!
So whats the 6-2-2 cooking method you ask. Well, its easy and you’ll have the most perfect pork steaks in no time. And trust us, it wasn’t through any culinary wizardry on our part.
- To start, get a 2 cm pork steak
- Pre-heat your pan and place your pork steak onto the surface and cook for 6 minutes. Do not turn over!
- Once 6 minutes is up, turn once and cook for a further 2 minutes.
- Then, take your pork steak off the pan and rest for 2 minutes on a plate. Do not flip it. This step is super important for optimum tenderness.
So just to recap: 2cm pork steak, hot pan, 6 minutes one side, 2 mins the other, then rest for another 2 minutes and because it’s Aussie and high quality you have the ability to have it slightly pink.
Perfectly cooked juicy steaks every time, in just 10 minutes.

Eon is divided up into two separate programs: a server and a client. The client does most of the computation (e.g. saddle searches, minimizations, and molecular dynamics) while the server creates the input for the client and processes its results.
We recommend installing Eon to your $HOME folder. To download the latest snapshot to your home folder:
$ cd $HOME $ wget http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/eon-files/eon-trunk.tgz $ tar xfvz eon-trunk.tgz $ mv eon-1637 eon
Or using subversion:
$ svn co http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/svn/eon
The directory $HOME/eon needs to be added to your $PYTHONPATH environment variable. It is also recommended to add $HOME/eon/bin to your $PATH. This can be done permanetly by appending the following to your ~/.profile file:
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/eon:$PYTHONPATH export PATH=$HOME/eon/bin:$PATH
If you have root permissions, you can install Eon system-wide:
$ cd eon $ sudo python setup.py install
This will install the eon python module to Python’s site-package directory as well as adding the eon program to your $PATH.
The client source code is located in a folder named client under the main eon directory. For most situations you will only need to run the make command and a binary named client will be built in this directory:
$ cd client $ make
If you wish to use the potentials that depend on fortran you will need a fortran compiler. However, this is optional and you can compile the client without fortran support by running the command make NO_FORTRAN=1. If you are using gfortran the supplied Makefile should work out of the box. If you are using the Intel Fortran Compiler (ifort) you will need to edit the Makefile to change FC (fortran compiler), FFLAGS (fortran compiler flags), and FAR (fortran archiver) variables to work for your system.
For most setups the binary client should be copied to a directory in your $PATH and named eonclient. If you added $HOME/eon/bin to your path during the server installation the following command will install the client:
$ cp client ../bin/eonclient
Otherwise you will need to give the path to the client binary in your config.ini.

Mt. McKinley, the highest peak on the Alaska Range is called Denali, meaning “the High One” in the native language of the area. The Denali National Park encompasses over 6 million acres and over 9,400 square miles. Formerly the Mt. McKinley National Park, when 4 million acres were added to the park in 1980 it was renamed the Denali National Park.
Since Denali National Park is in the subarctic zone winter is the longest season. The park sees fewer visitors in the winter since it is covered with a mantle of snow and ice. Many of the animals are hibernating or have migrated southward, the quiet beauty of the park and the stillness of the landscape make it a striking time to visit. Winter activities in the park include cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and dog mushing. One of the most popular winter events is Winterfest in February. A chili cook-off, a quilt show, storytelling, concerts, crafts and an ice sculpting contest are held during the week of Winterfest. You can also join a ranger for a snowshoe walk on the weekends beginning in February.
Spring doesn’t last long in the park and with a few warm days the park landscape transforms from brown and somewhat barren earth to lush and green.
Summer is the season when most people visit and the most activities are available in the park. Wildflowers can be seen in June and July. Animals are also more visible in the summer months. Daylight can last as long as 20 hours when it peaks at the solstice in June. Campgrounds are open by the second week of June until early September. This is the perfect season for day hiking, cycling, wildlife viewing. Lucky visitors may spot a grizzly or black bear, moose or caribou. Animals more often seen are the squirrels, marmots, and foxes throughout the park. Bird watchers can see some of the 169 species of birds that fly in the skies over the park. Eagles, ravens, mew gulls, gray jays and ptarmigan are some of the inhabitants.
Fall really begins in August when the foliage begins to turn. In late August as the days are shortening there is an increasing chance of seeing the Northern Lights. It can snow anytime in the park but the snows that come in September stay for the winter. Park hours and activities begin to lessen during September as extreme cold weather begins.
One note to hunters, hunting is not allowed in the Denali National Park only in the Denali National Preserve and a license is required. Fishing is difficult in the park because of the poor habitat of the rivers. However, some trout are caught in the lakes in the western part of the park.

Former Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has named Rivaldo and not team-mate Ronaldo, as the best player at he World Cup finals.
‘I always put the squad first,’ Scolari told France Football
‘But the success of a squad is only possible if great players help it.
‘That was the case with Rivaldo who, for me, was the best player in the World Cup. Tactically as well as in his shots, he was very strong. and I’m not mentioning his new frame of mind.
‘He changed his approach to football,’ said Scolari, who quit the Brazil immediately after the tournament and was recently appointed coach of Portugal.
Of Ronaldo, recently voted World and European Footballer of the Year, Scolari said: ‘Everything was planned for his return to competition during the World Cup to be as smooth and regular as possible.
‘A team is not a man. There were other solutions in his position. But everybody knows that when Ronaldo is on a pitch, the opposition defence are scared because he can be dangerous until the last minute.’
‘Not only did he score eight goals, but like the other stars in the team, he put himself at the team’s service.’

The 2023 National Football League playoffs are officially underway, beginning with Super Wildcard Weekend. Two games occurred on Saturday. Three games happened on Sunday. The final game took place on Monday. We ended the regular season with the Buffalo Bills being the last team crowned. In the first-ever playoff Top Team of the Week for Super Wildcard Weekend will be the New York Giants.
Saquon Barkley is Him
Saquon Barkley played a massive role in the Giants’ 2023 playoff run. Against the Minnesota Vikings, Barkley had nine rushes for 53 yards and two touchdowns. Saquon put this team on his back, especially in a crucial year for him. Barkley has exceeded all expectations of how essential he has been to New York’s success. The New York Giant goes as far as Saquon Barkley goes.
Danny Dimes is the King of New York
Imagine last year, saying in 2023 that Daniel Jones is a top-15 arguable top-12 quarterback in the NFL. In his playoff debut, he completed 24-of-35, equals 68 percent, for 301 yards and two touchdowns. In addition, Jones was very effective in the rushing game as New York’s leading rusher, rushing 17 times for 78 yards.
Daboll’s of Steel
Brian Daboll deserves tremendous consideration for coach of the year like Sean McDermont is. He took the New York Giants and dragged them to the playoffs. The Giants’ roster is not good by any stretch. As of right now, they are in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. Not many people were saying that during the pre-season. Whereas, real NFL fans knew Coach Brian Daboll was destined for greatness once Daboll pulled up to work in a blue Ford pickup truck.
Click here for Gates’ full Team of the Week archive.
New York Giants Players Stepped Up
A Key Reason why the Giant won was players stepped up in pivotal moments. Isaiah Hodgins had eight receptions for 105 yards and one touchdown. Darius Slayton had four receptions for 88 yards. Graham Gano was what the Giants needed him to be, reliable. Gano went 100 percent on his kicks for seven points.
Exposing the Frauds
Throughout the regular season, the Minnesota Vikings have been exposed time and time again. For example, the Green Bay Packers were predicted to blow the Packers out of the water. But, instead of winning by a lot, the resulted in a loss for the Vikings, the final score being 41-17.
The Vikings were eventually exposed again in the first half of the Indianapolis Colts game when Minnesota let the Colts put up over 20 points. Even though that game did turn into the biggest comeback in NFL History, the Colts would end up losing to the Houston Texans.
Then flash forward to this past Wildcard Weekend; the New York Giants exposed the Minnesota Vikings. All three of those teams shut down Justin Jefferson. In the most recent game versus the Giants, he had seven receptions for 47 yards. Yes, you heard that right. Another thing to mention in playoff seeding, the Vikings were the third seed with a 13-4 record, while the Giants were the sixth seed with a 10-7-1 record.

I can’t believe January’s already over. At first it seemed to crawl and every time I looked at the calendar I felt liked I had loads of time to finish the reading I’d scheduled for this month. And then suddenly it was 1 February and I’d only read 5 books.
Luckily I started off with an excellent read – Revenge by Yoko Ogawa. It’s a novel made up of interlinked short stories that are deceptively calm and hypnotic with scatterings of shock horror. The writing is exquisite; Ogawa is exceptionally talented when it comes to the finer details of fiction. I’m also giving away two copies of Revenge, so if you haven’t entered, go and do so now!
Next up was A Killer in the Wind by Andrew Klavan, a somewhat self-reflective hardboiled crime novel. The protagonist, Dan Champion, is trying hard to live up to his name and come to terms with the times he failed to do so. A decent story with plenty of action is unfortunately spoiled by utterly dismal female characters – lacklustre, weak and whiny. Can a man only be a hero when the women around him are damsels in distress? Perhaps Klavan is being satirical, but either way I wasn’t impressed.
The Six-Gun Tarot by R.S. Belcher is a fantasy-horror-western about a primordial monster slumbering within an abandoned silver mine out in the Nevada desert in the 1800s. Of course, something begins to wake the monster, and it’s up to the citizens of the town of Golgotha to save themselves, not to mention the entire universe. An average read, but with a few issues I want to discuss. Review to follow this week.
I’m still processing my thoughts on The Best of All Possible Worlds by Karen Lord. On the one hand, it’s an elegant, skillfully written piece of literary science fiction with exceptionally well-rounded characters. On the other hand, it’s very much a love story, and although the love story takes a long time to develop, it dominates the ending with what I find to be far too much cheesiness. So while the novel is undoubtedly far above average, I have my reservations.
My leisure read for January was Expecting Someone Taller, Tom Holt’s debut novel. I’ve read several of his comic fantasies (and one or two sf ones), and although they’re enjoyable I find that they can get a tad chaotic with their very large casts of characters. Expecting Someone Taller, which draws on Norse mythology, had a lot of people to keep track of, but in general it was simpler. Perhaps my favourite of his novels that I’ve read so far.
I’ve embarked on the very daunting task of reading Neal Stephenson’s Cryptonomicon, but although I started on 15 January, I’ve only made it through about 20% of the novel. If you’ve seen a copy of the book though, you’ll know that 20% of it is already the length of your average novel. to add to that, it’s a pretty dense read with loads of rather technical infodumps. But Stephenson can write infodumps like no one else, and I’m really enjoying the book so far. I just hope I can find time to finish it within the next month!

On August 29, 2014, The US Court of Federal Claims held that a government contractor committing a trade secret violation, triggering a proper Fifth Amendment Taking claim under the Tucker Act, 28 U.S.C. 1491.
In brief, Demodulation owned intellectual property including trade secrets and patents covering mircrowire and fine glass-coated wire used in various defense applications. The United States Department of Energy (DOE) and Demodulation initiated a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement on February 12, 2007.
During the ensuing engagement between the two entities, Demodulation disclosed “proprietary information and trade secrets” to DOE. These trade secrets included “the composition of the wire, the method for making the wire and variations in its chemistry, means for detecting the wire and proprietary signal processing technology.” In February 2009, Demodulation filed a complaint stating that the DOE disclosed the company’s proprietary technology and trade secrets to Government agencies and private entities without DOE’s consent.
Responding to Demodulation’s complaint, the US Court of Federal Claims maintained that the actions of the DOE may have triggered protections under the Tucker Act. The Tucker Act provides the Court of Federal Claims with “exclusive jurisdiction over a claim ‘founded… upon any express or implied contract with the United States…” United States Marine Inc. v. Unites States, No. 12-1678 at 11 (Fed. Cir. July 15, 2013) (quoting 28 U.S.C. Sec 1491(a)(1)).
In a case with parallels to Demodulation, in United States Marine, the United States Marine Company successful filed suit against the United States for “misappropriation of trade secrets” after discovering that the Navy had disclosed the design of a proprietary special-operations craft. Because the trade secret misappropriation was “inextricably entwined” with the government contract, the Court of Federal Claims had jurisdiction (as opposed to an action exclusively in tort). Id.
In Demodulation, the court also held that the Court had Jurisdiction over the misappropriation of trade secrets to the extent the claims arose from the agreement formed with the government. The opinion emphasized that while a trade secret misappropriation is generally characterized as a tort claim, ” If the action was chargeable to the government as an authorized action it would be a taking.” The action would be considered a tort only if it, was committed by a government agent acting ultra vires.”

NYC songstress performs her hit “Bumblebee” at GSTV’s Manhattan Studio
NYC-based Rachel Brown is an eclectic performer who combines elements of Caribbean, Hawaiian, hip-hop and country music into a kind of indie world pop that’s catchy and easy on the ear. With her guitar, ukelele and distinctly sultry voice, Brown began writing and performing songs while she was a student at Harvard. Soon she began playing gigs, attracting the attention of Wyclef Jean, who brought her onstage for a duet of Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song” the week she graduated college.
Recently Rachel stopped by GSTV’s New York studio and did an impromptu performance of “Bumblebee” exclusively for our cameras. Check it out!

INTRODUCTION | THEATER | CINEMA | MUSIC | DANCE | LITERATURE | VISUAL ARTS | MUSEUMS | ARCHEOLOGY | MEDIA | SPORTS
Modern Hebrew prose in the Land of Israel was first written by immigrant authors. Although their roots were anchored in the world and traditions of East European Jewry, their works dealt primarily with the creative achievements in the Land of Israel to which they had come, in the words of the Zionist motto, "to build and be built by it."
Note: All links to author information are to the website of the Institute for the Translation of Hebrew Literature.
Yosef Haim Brenner (1881-1921) and Shmuel Yosef Agnon (1888-1970), who propelled Hebrew prose into the 20th century, are considered by many to be the fathers of modern Hebrew literature.
In his endeavor to capture reality, Brenner favored the rabbinical and medieval forms of spoken Hebrew, creating new idioms and employing dramatic syntax to give the effect of living speech. Central to Brenner’s works is his identification with both the physical struggle of the pioneers for a toehold in an arid, harsh land, very different from the European countries where they were born, and the struggle, no less difficult, to shape the identity of the Jew in the Land of Israel.
Agnon chose to use more modern forms of the Hebrew language in his works. His familiarity with Jewish tradition, together with the influence of 19th and early 20th century European literature, gave rise to a body of fiction dealing with major contemporary spiritual concerns, the disintegration of traditional ways of life, the loss of faith, and the subsequent loss of identity. An Orthodox Jew and a writer of intuition and psychological insight, Agnon expressed an affinity for the shadowy and irrational sides of the human psyche and an identification with the inner uncertainties of the believing and non-believing Jew. Reality, as depicted by Agnon, exudes a tragic, at times grotesque ambience, with war and the Holocaust influencing much of his work, and the world of pious Jews revealed with all its passions and tensions. In 1966, Agnon was co-recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature (together with Nelly Sachs).
Native-born writers, who began publishing in the 1940s and 1950s, and are often referred to as ‘the War of Independence Generation,’ brought to their work a different mentality and cultural background from that of their predecessors, primarily because Hebrew was their mother tongue and their life experience was fully rooted in the Land of Israel. Authors such as S. Yizhar, Moshe Shamir, Hanoch Bartov, Haim Gouri and Benjamin Tammuz vacillated dramatically between individualism and commitment to society and state, and presented a model of social realism, often in the heroic mode, featuring a blend of local and international influences.
In the early 1960s, new approaches in Hebrew prose writing were explored by a group of younger and very influential writers, including A.B. Yehoshua, Amos Oz, Yoram Kaniuk and Yaakov Shabtai, marking a break from ideological patterns and focusing on the world of the individual.
During the next two decades, experimentation with narrative forms and various prose writing styles, including psychological realism, allegory and symbolism, as well as speculation and skepticism regarding Israel’s political and social conventions, featured prominently in contemporary writing.
The 1980s and 1990s witnessed a burst of intense literary activity in which the number of books published increased dramatically. Concurrently, several Israeli writers achieved international recognition, notably Oz, Yehoshua, Kaniuk, Aharon Appelfeld, David Shahar, David Grossman and Meir Shalev. A belief in literature as a means of enabling readers to understand themselves as individuals and as part of their environment characterizes the prose of this period, written by three generations of contemporary authors. Many of these writers also address the political and moral dilemmas of contemporary life in Israel, notably Oz, Grossman, and Shalev.
Renewed efforts to cope with the tragedy of the European Holocaust have brought about the formulation of fresh modes of expression to treat fundamental questions which can be discussed only within the perspective of time and place, integrating distance with involvement (Appelfeld, Grossman, Yehoshua Kenaz, Alexander and Yonat Sened, Nava Semel, and others). Grossman’s "See Under: Love", related partially from the perspective of a young boy, Momik, who sees the aftermath of the Holocaust unfold within his immigrant family, is perhaps the best known example.
Previously unprobed themes have also been introduced, including the milieu of the Arab village (Anton Shammas, an Arab-Christian writer, and Sayed Kashua, an Israeli-Arab journalist and writer) the world of ultra-Orthodox Jews who deliberately segregate themselves from modern society (Yossl Birstein), the way of life in Jerusalem’s Hassidic courts (Haim Be’er) and attempts to deal with the existence of the unbeliever in a period when secular ideologies are collapsing and religious fundamentalism is gaining strength (Yitzhak Orpaz-Auerbach).
Another important topic which some Israeli authors, themselves of Sephardic background, are addressing is the place in society of alienated new immigrants from Arab countries (Sami Michael, Albert Suissa, Dan Benaya Seri). Others explore universal themes such as democracy and righteousness as seen in the context of a society which is subject to constant challenges in most areas of its national life (Yitzhak Ben-Ner, Kaniuk, Grossman, Oz).
A number of major women authors have come to the fore, writing not only on general topics but also dealing with the world of women aware of their place in Jewish tradition and their role in the Zionist enterprise (Amalia Kahana-Carmon, Chana Bat-Shahar, Shulamit Hareven, Shulamit Lapid, Ruth Almog, Savion Liebrecht, Batya Gur). Lapid and Gur have also entered the genre of detective fiction to critical acclaim, both in Israel and in translation abroad.
Recently a younger generation of writers, who reject much of the centrality of the Israeli experience and reflect a more universalistic trend – often of an alienated, deeply surreal and idiosyncratic nature – has emerged. Some of these writers (Yehudit Katzir, Etgar Keret, Orly Castel-Blum, Gadi Taub, Irit Linor, Mira Magen) enjoy almost cult followings, and their new books are assured a place at the top of the bestseller lists both here and, in some cases, abroad. In recent years, Keret has been a firm favorite among European readers, with a number of his short story collections, among them "Missing Kissinger", winning prestigious literary awards.
In addition to the prolific body of Hebrew literature, a significant amount of writing, both prose and poetry, appears in other languages, including Arabic, English, and French. Since the immigration of over one million Jews from the former Soviet Union, Israel has become the largest center of literary creativity in the Russian language outside Russia itself.
During the last few years, Israeli publishers have entered the field of electronic publishing in a massive way. Covering a wide range of topics, Israeli programs are being marketed worldwide.
Written without interruption from biblical times to the present, Hebrew poetry embodies external influences and internal traditions. The poetry of the past, which incorporates religious and national themes, also contains motifs of personal experience which are predominant in the poetry of today.
A break with traditional poetic expression developed during the Jewish Enlightenment in Europe (1781-1881), when full citizenship for Jews and secularization of Jewish life were advocated, and from the late 19th century when Zionism, the movement calling for the restoration of Jewish national life in the Land of Israel, began to gain momentum. The major poets to emerge from this period, who themselves immigrated to Palestine early in the 20th century, were Haim Nahman Bialik (1873-1934) and Saul Tchernichovsky (1875-1943).
Bialik’s works, which reflect his commitment to the Jewish national renaissance and reject the viability of Jewish life in Eastern Europe, include both long epic poems recapitulating chapters in Jewish history as well as pure lyrical poetry dealing with love and nature. Bialik, often referred to as the ‘national poet’ or ‘the poet of the Hebrew Renaissance,’ forged a new poetic idiom, free of the overwhelming biblical influence of his predecessors, while maintaining classical structure and clarity of expression through rich, learned but contemporary phrasing. His poems, some of which were written specifically for very young children, are memorized by generations of Israeli pupils.
Tchernichovsky, who wrote lyric poetry, dramatic epics, ballads, and allegories, sought to rectify the world of the Jew by injecting a spirit of personal pride and dignity as well as a heightened awareness of nature and beauty. His sense of language, which embodied an affinity for rabbinical Hebrew, was different from Bialik’s idiom which integrated the biblical influence with the emerging conversational mode. Both Bialik and Tchernichovsky represent the transition from ancient Jewish poetry to the modern genre.
Avraham Shlonsky, Natan Alterman, Lea Goldberg, and Uri Zvi Greenberg headed the next generation of poets, who wrote in the years which preceded the establishment of the state and during the early years of statehood.
Shlonsky utilized a flood of images along with linguistic inventions in his poetry as well as in his prolific translations of classical poetry, especially from Russian. Alterman’s works, many of which are noted for their political commentary, accompanied every stage of the development of the Jewish community and are characterized by richness of language and a variety of poetic forms, tone and rhyme, imagery and metaphor.
Goldberg expanded the spectrum of lyricism in poems which speak of the city, nature and the human being in search of love, contact and attention. Greenberg, who wrote a poetry of despair and rage using fierce imagery and stylistic power, dealt mainly with nationalistic themes and the impact of the Holocaust. This group of poets was the first to introduce the rhythms of everyday speech into Hebrew poetry. They revived old idioms and coined new ones, giving the ancient language a new flexibility and richness.
The poetry of this period, which was greatly influenced by Russian futurism and symbolism as well as by German expressionism, tended towards the classical structure and melodicism of ordered rhyming. It reflected images and landscapes of the poets’ country of birth and fresh visions of their new country in a heroic mode, as well as memories from ‘there’ and the desire to sink roots ‘here,’ expressing, as Lea Goldberg wrote, "the pain of two homelands." Many of the poems were set to music and became an integral part of the country’s national lore.
The first major woman poet in Hebrew was Rahel Bluwstein (1890-1931), who is known simply as "Rahel." Her works established the normative foundation of women’s Hebrew poetry as well as the public’s expectations of this poetry. Its lyrical, short, emotional, intellectually unpretentious, and personal style has prevailed, as seen in most of the works of her contemporaries and of later poets such as Dalia Ravikovitch and Maya Bejerano.
In the mid-1950s, a new group of younger poets emerged, with Hebrew as their mother tongue, headed by Yehuda Amichai, Natan Zach, Dan Pagis, T. Carmi and David Avidan. This group, tending towards understatement, a general retreat from collective experiences, free observation of reality and a colloquial style, shifted the main poetic influences from Pushkin and Schiller to modern English and American poetry. The works of Amichai, who has been extensively translated, are marked by his use of daily speech, irony and metaphysical metaphors. These became the hallmarks of much of the poetry written by his younger contemporaries, who proclaimed the end of ideological poetry and broke completely with the Alterman-Shlonsky tradition of classical structures and ordered rhyming. Zach’s works elicit innovative near-liturgical and musical qualities from everyday spoken Hebrew.
Poster by Raphie Etgar (With permission of the artist)
The field of Hebrew poetry today is a polyphony comprised of several generations, placing writers in their twenties together with poets of middle age. Representative of the latter group are Meir Wieseltier, whose prosaic, slangy and direct diction repudiates all romanticism and elevates the image of Tel Aviv as the symbol of reality; Yair Horowitz, whose restrained verses express the gentle sadness of one aware of his own mortality; and Yona Wallach, who presents herself in colloquial, sarcastic tones, using archetypal and religious motifs, Freudian symbolism, sometimes brutal sensuality, rhythmic repetitions, and long strings of associations. Other major contemporary poets include Asher Reich, Arieh Sivan, Ronny Someck and Moshe Dor.
The poetry of the most recent generation is dominated by individualism and perplexity, and tends towards short poems written in colloquial diction, non-rhymed free rhythm. Examples of this kind of work can be found in the poems of Transylvanian-born poet Agi Mishol. Poetry in Israel has a large and loyal readership and some volumes of poems, of all periods, are sold in editions as large as those published in much more populous Western countries.
Snow on the mountains
Above the High Places
and above Jerusalem.
and return my child to me.
and return my child to me.
come floods in the harbors
and return my child to me.
Thin stalk in the stream,
Stringy desert bushes,
return my child to me
as the soul returns to the body
when the eyes open.
Children’s literature, which includes original texts as well as translations of classics from many languages, integrates a wide variety of topics and prose styles, reflecting a world trend towards a more direct and sophisticated approach to language and intellectual content in writing sensitivity as well as by an expressive and picturesque use of language, enabling the young reader to identify with the substance of the writing in a dynamic way.
Motivating open inquiry and encouraging independent thinking have become basic elements in contemporary writing for children. While themes of social and national significance are still important, they are now treated with greater sincerity and openness. Some current books aim at negating stereotypes in the country’s diversified society and deal with the immigration of Jews from many parts of the world, while others feature historical works and biographies which focus primarily on prominent figures who contributed to the development of the country over the last century, beginning with the renewal of Jewish life in the Land of Israel.
Since the late 1960s, children’s literature has largely portrayed the world of the children themselves, dealing with topics such as death, divorce, single-parent families, handicaps, adolescence, and the struggle for one’s place in the family and society. At the same time, many imaginative children’s books and stories were also written, providing young readers with pure fantasy, entertainment, and escapism.
Israel is also unusual in the number of prize-winning authors who have written for children as well as for adults. Among them are David Grossman ("The Zig Zag Kid," "Itamar Walks on Walls") and Etgar Keret ("Dad Runs Away With The Circus"). Many of these works also blur the line between adult and children’s novels. Israeli books for children are now also being published in translation around the world, in a wide variety of languages.

There we sat, on a blistering July afternoon, in the rugged hills of West Virginia, staring at steel targets nearly 300 yards away, scarcely visible to the naked eye, thanks to the thick brush and the shimmer so graciously provided by the mid-summer heat. I’d hesitate to call us a ragtag group—too many negative connotations, there—but we were, without a doubt, a hodgepodge. Battling the heat alongside instructors, organizers and me, a run-of-the-mill outdoor writer, were a dozen or so fellow students from all walks of life. Some were there to train for upcoming endeavors, some were looking to grow more comfortable with a rifle, and others were simply looking for a weekend away. While I played spotter for a retiree, a lawyer to our left was conducting a symphony of singing steel. Beyond him, a judge watched his two sons send bullets downrange with pride, and still farther down the line sat a father/son duo that hadn’t so much as picked up a rifle prior to attending the course. I think hodgepodge is fair.
We’d convened at the Peacemaker National Training Center (PNTC) in Glengary, W.Va., to learn a bit more about basic riflecraft. That’s not entirely uncommon, given what the folks at Peacemaker do for a living. What made this weekend unique, however, was its organizer: NRA Outdoors. Suffice to say, if you’re an NRA member you’ve heard of the program. It was conceived to help connect NRA members with some of the finest outfitters and guides in the outdoor industry. And it has done so with gusto since its inception. What some folks haven’t yet realized, though, is that NRA Outdoors is no longer just your portal to outfitters. Training courses are on the docket now, too. The one I attended, the Practical Hunting Rifleman School, is but one of the numerous initiatives launched by the program in the last 12 months.
The schools serve as part of the greater NRA Outdoors initiative—that being to remain the go-to source for NRA members seeking adventure and new experiences. Never fear: You’re still able to book world-class hunting and fishing trips through the NRA Outdoors portal—you can just do a lot more now, too. The schools, which began with a single exploratory course a couple years ago, have seen a rapid expansion in the past 12 months. Availability has experienced a bit of ebb and flow as NRA Outdoors has grown, but as this story goes to print the following seven courses are offered: Long Range School, Practical Hunting Rifleman School, Precision Long Range School, Wilderness Survival School, 3-Gun Introduction School, Tactical Carbine School and Defensive Handgun Academy. Each calls Peacemaker’s facilities home, but the Long Range School also has locations in Utah and Texas. Current courses, you’ll note, heavily favor rifles and handguns, but don’t worry—shotgun schools are in the works.
What potential attendees can expect is what NRA Outdoors has delivered since its inception: Access to some of the highest-quality facilities and professionals in the business. While at PNTC, I benefitted from the tutelage of Cole McCullough and his veteran staff of NRA-certified range safety officers and instructors. The facility is the largest shooting sports complex on the East Coast and hosts more firearm competitions than any other range in the nation, short of Camp Perry. With 17 live-fire ranges and a selection of classroom settings, it effectively offers unmatched amenities.
Not to be overshadowed, also on the rise are the program’s Hosted Hunting Adventures. These events are presented directly by NRA Outdoors and offer members the chance to join their peers from throughout the country on a hosted, guided hunt. The adventures offer no shortage of variety—in November members will convene in Montana for a mule deer hunt that also sports an opportunity to win a new Weatherby rifle, and in December Benelli will join NRA Outdoors in hosting a combination quail/waterfowl hunt in Texas. The trips are available exclusively to NRA members through the NRA Outdoors portal. Alongside NRA, the programs are sponsored by some of the most respected names in the industry, including Weatherby, Swarovski, Benelli, SIG Sauer and Trijicon. Students will become familiar with top-notch gear from Nightforce Optics, Armalite, Huskemaw, Kestrel Meters and Vortex Optics, too.
As you might have garnered, students of all skill levels are invited to any of the respective parties. Remember that lawyer I mentioned? His name’s Ted Browoski Jr., and like me he journeyed to PNTC with a bevy of big-game hunts already under his belt. What he sought was a warm-up for a Dall sheep hunt in Alaska. And in the hills of West Virginia he grew comfortable making shots as far as 500 yards, a range at which he wanted to be proficient before going on the hunt. A few months down the line, he killed his ram, and wrote about it for American Hunter (Member’s Hunt, December ’15).
No, not everyone who attends an NRA Outdoors event will kill a trophy sheep—but they’ll be given an opportunity to make the most of world-class training and facilities just the same as the folks who will. It’s hard to argue with that.

Most gardening experts I’ve spoken with (and I’ve spoken with quite a few) agree that the best gardening gloves are no gloves at all. One of the best parts of gardening is plunging your arms into fresh soil in communion with nature. But, understandably, not everyone is down for mucking around in the yard without any protection for their hands, and depending on the environment, not everybody should either. A lovely afternoon in the vegetable garden can easily become a messy, unpleasant, and potentially painful endeavor if you have to contend with thorny stems, splinters, or skin-irritating weeds that can lead to phytophotodermatitis.
A good pair of garden gloves is a worthwhile investment to keep your hands clean, dry, and comfortable for hours of toiling away in the dirt. For our inaugural test of the best gardening gloves, we tried 12 pairs, made from a range of materials. Scroll down for our winners and our testing methodology.

How we tested
What we looked for
Other gloves we tested
The best overall gardening gloves: Barebones Work Gloves
These Barebones work gloves are carefully constructed using cowhide leather, and they provide ample protection in the garden. On a cold and muddy spring day, I used them to protect my hands while hauling wood, scooping up detritus, and grabbing thorny stems; they handled the work gracefully. The gloves took next to no time to break in. They fit tightly but comfortably and quickly formed to my hands. With them on I still had enough dexterity to open trash bags, and they kept my hands nice and warm, and, most importantly, protected for hours. They were one of the most water-resistant pairs I tested—little to no moisture crept through the seams when I used them to handle damp plants and dirt. Wanting to thoroughly test their moisture resistance, I dunked them fully in water. Water did eventually penetrate the gloves, but they never got completely wet on the inside. What’s more, the gloves were still comfortable to wear when they were damp, a very rare feature for lighter cloth-based garden gloves.
At $20 these gloves are affordable and if properly cared for should last several gardening seasons.
The best gloves for heavy-duty gardeners: the Vermont Glove
If you want high-quality gloves that are durable, thoughtfully designed, and built to last, go for a pair from Vermont Glove. These gloves are made of buttery-soft goat skin leather, which is more resilient than cowhide. They’re constructed using unique stitching details: The seams are positioned behind the fingers and placed on the outside of the glove, which makes the gloves more comfortable and improves your dexterity while you’re wearing them.The gloves are also reinforced in areas prone to wear, so they can withstand repeated heavy use.
The quality stitching really shined in our soak test. After several seconds submerged in water, these were the only gloves we tested that let absolutely no moisture inside. We would expect the water resistance to improve even more with proper oiling and waxing. These gloves were also exceptionally puncture resistant, withstanding intrusions from thorny plants and cactus needles.
They are bulkier than other gloves, which is why it’s important that you purchase them in the proper size. Leather gardening gloves should have a snug fit the first time you use them and mold to your hands like a second skin with repeated wear. We recommend using Vermont Glove’s sizing guide to get a proper fit. Even with proper fit, you probably won’t be untying any knots in these. While we had no trouble navigating gardening tasks like picking up seed packets or opening trash bags, these gloves aren’t for tasks that require your fingers to be as nimble as they would be naked.

In Singapore, there is a television program caller BlogTV. A sort of entertainment/current affairs program, its next show will be on students and the amount of private tuition they have.
In a survey they conducted, BlogTV report that 97 out of a 100 students have private tuition of some sort. First reaction I had on hearing 97% of students have tuition, “That can’t be right! That’s way too high!”
Then after awhile, my reaction became, “Who are the 3 students who do have any tuition at all?” Anyone who knows Singaporean parents knows that they are above and beyond kaisu, so I am amazed that there are exactly some Singaporean parents who don’t force their kids to go for tuition.
As a born-and-bred Singaporean, that just sounds impossible to me. A kid without tuition? That’s almost parental neglect here in Singapore.

If your favorite past times include enjoying beer with your friends and ordering high-calorie junk food from your favorite restaurants, we don’t blame you. But as you know, all this can result in an expanding waistline. And it’s not just your heart doctors are worried about now — they’re also concerned for your increased risk of cancer.
Here’s what you need to know about the link between belly fat and your cancer risk.
Studies show how harmful stomach fat really is
First, it’s important to know you have two layers of fat, U.S. News & World Report notes. The top layer that sits directly above your skin isn’t nearly as harmful as the deeper layer, or visceral fat, that surrounds your organs and makes your stomach look larger. According to Michigan State University researchers, the visceral fat in mice produced a protein that turns healthy cells into cancerous ones.
It’s important to remember that this was only studied on mice, however, and studies on humans are more conclusive.
Hormones released from fat can increase your cancer risk, too
While you probably think of fat as just the excess pudge around your middle, it’s important to remember it does more than just sit on your body. The deeper layers of fat actually secrete estrogen, which may contribute to increased breast cancer risk.
Here’s something interesting, though: A study performed on 620 women with breast cancer showed those with larger waists were more likely to develop hormone-receptor-negative breast cancer than those with smaller waistlines. This means this type of the disease did not grow in response to hormones, like estrogen. Researchers are still trying to figure out how this could be.
The types of cancer associated with belly fat
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center says stomach fat may be increasing your risk of colorectal, pancreatic, uterine, and breast cancers. Essentially, that visceral fat can damage your organs and tell it to make more insulin than you really need. This can lead to cancer, but it can also lead to diabetes. And for post-menopausal women who start to gain more fat in their abdomen area, this can disrupt your hormones, leading to an increased risk of breast and uterine cancers.
A large waist is also horrible for your heart
As if cancer wasn’t enough, all that belly fat is also putting a major strain on your heart. Even if you’re not seriously overweight, those who carry more weight in their abdominal area are at a much greater risk for heart disease than those who carry their weight in other areas.
Want to know your risk? The Heart Foundation says it’s easy — just measure your waist. Women should have a waist smaller than 31.5 inches, and for men, it should be 37 inches max.
Here’s how to measure your waistline
Measuring your waist is easy, and it can be a better indicator of your health than just the scale alone. First, know where your waist is by finding the top of your hip bone and the bottom of your ribs. Breathe out as you normally would, and use a tape measure between these two points to find your waist measurement.
Certain instances, like pregnancy or some medical conditions, can make your waist measurement less accurate. But for most, this is an easy indicator of how much excess fat you’re carrying around your middle.
Look at your diet to reduce stomach fat
Sorry, but endless crunches won’t reduce the amount of fat you have around your midsection. To cut down on belly bulge, you’ll want to fill your diet with lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Refined sugars and alcohol are highly inflammatory and very caloric, so they won’t help you lose the tummy. And in addition to cutting back on the junk food, you’ll want to make sure you’re getting enough sleep, as this will lower your stress levels and reduce your cravings.
Genetics play a big role
When it comes to cancer (and where you store fat, for that matter), genetics really are king. If you’re more apple-shaped, you’ll naturally store more fat in your middle — and there’s no getting around a family history of disease. That’s why it’s important to take note of lowering your risk in all the ways that are in your control.
There are other surprising cancer risk factors, like sitting too much, working at night, and eating charred meats that are extremely harmful to your health. Learn all the ways you’re unknowingly harming your body so that little bit of extra belly fat isn’t as big of a concern.

PICACHO, AZ - Blowing dust south of the Valley Tuesday led to three massive accidents on Interstate 10 involving two dozen vehicles.
Air15 and ABC15 crews at the scene near Picacho captured shocking images of the chaos that unraveled Tuesday afternoon south of the Valley.
Aerial images from Air15 showed thick clouds of blowing dust hovering over the accident scenes as crews worked feverishly to help injured motorists and direct drivers around the scene.
Commercial and passenger vehicles could be seen spread across the roadway while dust blew through the area.
ABC15's Steve Kuzj also captured photos at the scene showing semi trucks on top of cars as emergency vehicles lined the roadway.
One person was killed and nearly a dozen others injured.

Eye Cell Implants Help Parkinson's
Experimental Treatment May Improve Movement Problems in Parkinson's Disease
WebMD News Archive
Dec. 12, 2005 -- Implants of human retina cells may help soothe shaking and improve movement in people with advanced Parkinson's disease.
A new study shows the implants improved motor symptoms, such as muscle rigidity and tremors, by 48% one year after treatment, and those improvements were sustained for at least another year.
Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that causes uncontrollable tremors and difficulty starting and continuing movements. Most people with the disease require treatment with the drug levodopa to control symptoms. Patients with Parkinson's have a deficiency of the chemical dopamine. Levodopa converts to dopamine in the brain.
But long-term treatment with the drug, coupled with the progression of the disease, can lead to other motor problems, such as distorted movement.
Cells from the human retina called retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells produce levodopa naturally and can be taken from cadavers and grown in cultures.
New Avenue in Parkinson's Disease Treatment?
In the study, published in the Archives of Neurology, researchers examined the effects of implanting these retina cells attached to tiny microcarriers into the brains of six people with advanced Parkinson's disease.
The results showed the implants improved motor symptoms by an average of 48% up to two years after implantation. Improvements in activities of daily living, quality of life, and movement fluctuations were found without any the distorted movements typically associated with levodopa therapy.
Based on this small study, researchers say an additional study comparing the retina cell implant treatment with a placebo in people with Parkinson's disease has been started and will continue to look at the effectiveness and safety of the experimental treatment.

Marloes Coenen is the new Strikeforce women's welterweight champion, after submitting the previously undefeated Sarah Kaufman on Saturday night.
Coenen put on a good show throughout, doing well in the stand-up game in the early going and then finishing the fight with one of her trademark submissions from her back. Coenen was already prepared to promote her next fight afterward, saying to Strikeforce's No. 1 contender, Miesha Tate, "Let's get it on."
The first round was fought entirely standing up, and for much of it both fighters looked tentative. Coenen landed a few more power shots than Kaufman and also tended to control when they clinched, although Coenen didn't do much damage and Kaufman didn't appear to be in any trouble at any point. The fans started booing with about a minute left in the first round, as they were doing more clinching than punching.

Rheumatoid arthritis isn't just about achy joints. This condition can also affect other parts of the body.
In severe cases, rheumatoid arthritis can cause dangerous heart inflammation (pericarditis)... lung inflammation (pleurisy)...and sight-damaging eye inflammation (scleritis).
People who have rheumatoid arthritis should be treated early, not only to prevent permanent joint deformities but also to guard against the inflammation-related complications that are associated with the disorder. Most of the joint destruction caused by rheumatoid arthritis occurs in the first six to 12 months following diagnosis.
At one time, doctors mainly focused on relieving symptoms using pain medication.
Now: Drug therapies are aimed at curbing the progression of this debilitating disorder.
Are You At Risk?
Rheumatoid arthritis can occur at any age. Approximately 75% of patients are women, which suggests that hormones may play a role in the disease. Some researchers believe that a viral or bacterial infection may trigger the disorder in some patients. Smoking and stress are thought to contribute to rheumatoid arthritis-but not cause it.
Rheumatoid arthritis is characterized by joint stiffness and swelling, often in symmetrical patterns on both sides of the body. Fatigue and a low-grade fever may also occur.
Rheumatoid arthritis almost always requires drug therapy. Drugs can significantly reduce pain in more than half of the patients and offer some relief to the others.
People who have rheumatoid arthritis should seek treatment from a rheumatologist (a medical doctor who specializes in the treatment of diseases that involve the joints, muscles and associated structures).*
Rheumatologists typically prescribe nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen (Advil) and naproxen (Aleve), or the corticosteroid prednisone, to control the pain and inflammation of this condition.
A majority of rheumatoid arthritis patients are also prescribed a medication known as a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DM ARD), which is designed to reduce pain and inflammation and slow the progression of the disease.
Nonbiological DMARDs ate synthetic medications that have been available for many years. These drugs reduce joint damage. Non-biological DMARDs include...
Methotrexate (Rheumatrex). This drug suppresses the immune system and minimizes joint destruction. Most patients who take methotrexate experience reduced pain and joint swelling within weeks. It is one of the best drugs for slowing the progression of rheumatoid arthritis.
Potential side effects include nausea, diarrhea and, in rare cases, liver scarring and/or inflammation. For this reason, periodic liver function tests are required.
Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil). This antimalarial drug suppresses immune attacks on the joints. It is often combined with methotrexate to try to achieve better results. Potential side effects include nausea and decreased appetite and, in rare cases, retinopathy, a disorder of the retina that results in vision impairment. If you take this drug, you should have regular eye exams.
Sulfasalazine (Azulfidine). This medication, often used for mild symptoms or in combination with other drugs for severe symptoms, can cause stomach upset, headache and, in some cases, a decrease in disease-fighting white blood cells.
Important: In addition to liver function tests, people who take nonbiological DMARDs require regular blood tests to monitor changes in blood counts.
Biological DMARDs resemble substances that are naturally present in the body. Most patients who take these newer, more specifically targeted drugs experience improvements in a short time-and some even report complete remission.
Three biologic agents are currently available that inhibit or block a cell protein known as TNF-alpha. TNF-alpha produces the inflammatory response.
Etanercept (Enbrel). It is usually injected once or twice weekly.
Adalimumab (Humira). It is given by injection once every two weeks, although it is sometimes given weekly.
Infliximab(Remicade). This drug is taken in combination with methotrexate. It is given by intravenous (IV) infusion in a doctor's office, usually once every eight weeks. At times, it can be given as frequently as every four weeks.
These drugs may increase the risk of infection. They can also reactivate tuberculosis (TB) in patients who were previously exposed-even if they never had symptoms. A TB skin test is required prior to starting therapy.
Drawback: These drugs are extremely expensive, costing $t3,000 to $30,000 annually, depending on the dose.
New Drug Choices
Several new drugs do not have the long-term data of the DMARDs, but they are an option for patients who don't respond to DMARDs.
Abatacept (Orencia). Approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December 2005, abatacept inhibits the activity of T-cells, immune cells that play a central role in joint inflammation. Abatacept may increase the risk of infection.
Rituximab (Rituxan). Used for 10 years to treat lymphoma, this drug was recently approved to treat rheumatoid arthritis. It reduces circulatory B-cells, a type of white blood cell that has been shown to play a role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis. Rituximab is given by IV infusion once every few months. It may also increase infection risk.

It’s December, and we all know what December means, right? It means we can have martinis every night since it’s “the holidays!”
It also means, of course, that we have all sorts of parties and such to attend and to cook for. In my case I am working on a menu for Dr. Fiance’s lab holiday party that is coming up in a couple of weeks. Obviously I want us (me) to look super cool to her staff, so that means making something super interesting for the main course at the party. Following the general rule of entertaining that you should never serve something that you’ve never made before, yesterday I went ahead and did a test run on the Sausages Al Vino with Red and Green Grapes with a Red Wine Reduction.
Red and green grapes, get it? Holiday colors! I was drawn to this recipe because it has a grand total of three ingredients: italian sausages, grapes, and red wine. Simple, right? The recipe breaks down like this: you split 2 1/2 pounds of red and green grapes into three cups each. You roast one cup of each color until they are shriveled and caramelized, you puree one cup of each color to make grape juice, and then you poach the final cup of each color in the juice with the sausages and then make a wine reduction drizzle sauce. Simple right?
Here’s the thing about roasting grapes until they “shrivel and caramelize”. After slow roasting my grapes for literally three times the amount of time that the original recipe called for I came to one very clear realization: shriveled and caramelized grapes are more commonly known as … raisins. I should have seen that coming, I guess. Granted, the time commitment paid off because my “raisins” were very sweet and delicious but still, three hours?. One factor is that the “imported from who knows where” grapes that are available at this time of year are enormous and full of juice, which could account for the longer roasting time.
However, this is a recipe that I plan to use for entertaining and given it took me close to three and a half hours to make them, I’m wondering if it wouldn’t make more sense to simply soak some “pre-made” raisins in some red wine (or brandy)? More experimentation is needed clearly. As far as I can tell there is virtually no cooking-related conundrum that can’t be solved by adding more booze.
In any case, the mixture of the “raisins” and the fresher, juicier poached grapes made for a sweet compliment to the savory sausages. Just remember (as I failed to do on this test run) to get SEEDLESS grapes as picking seeds from your teeth at a dinner party isn’t exactly classy. Another thing is that I think for the main event I’m going to mix in some hot sausages with the regular Italian variety, as the spiciness will probably work well paired with the sweetness. I served the dish with some very simple garlic and olive oil mashed potatoes and topped the whole thing with a grape juice and wine reduction that is very very tasty.
Sausages Al Vino with Red and Green Grapes
2.5 pounds of seedless red and green grapes
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 Italian-style sausages
1 cup dry red wine
Preheat oven to 250F. Roast one cup of each color of grapes on a baking sheet, turning frequently until they have shriveled and caramelized into home-made raisins. This could take between one and three hours depending on how juicy your grapes are. This can be done ahead.
Puree one cup of each color of grapes in a food processor. Extract juice from the puree using a sieve, which should give you about a cup of juice. Set aside.
In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages and brown on all sides. Don’t let your pan get too hot or the sausages will burst. Once the sausages have browned, add in the grape juice and poach the sausages for about ten minutes or so. Add in the grapes and continue to poach until the grapes are soft, but not mushy. The sausages should have an internal temperature of 165F.
Remove sausages and grapes with a slotted spoon to a plate and tent with foil to keep them warm. Add the red wine to the remaining liquid and reduce until about a quarter cup or so (should take about ten minutes). Serve sausages on a bed of mashed potatoes with the poached grapes. Sprinkle with the roasted grapes and then drizzle with the wine reduction.
Next step: I need to figure out how to upsize the recipe to get it work for a larger party with many more sausages than will fit in one pan. I’m thinking that instead of poaching on the stove-top I should brown the sausages first, then poach them in the oven in a large pan. Also I just realized that I’m going to need some platters to serve stuff. Now that I think about it, I’ve never cooked a “fancy” for more than six people at time. Holy crap! PANIC PANIC PANIC!
Act cool Jon, act cool. It’s all good. When in doubt have another holiday martini.

During a 2010 mission to document Moche murals decorating the walls of the Pañamarca temple in northern Peru, archaeologists discovered a 1,300-year-old feathered shield. It’s a small circular shield 10 inches in diameter with red and brown textiles sewn to e base structure of basketry weaving. The red textile remains remarkably rich in color and there are a dozen yellow feathers, probably from a macaw, still attached to the front of the shield in a radial pattern, while the back is a coiled basket weave with two vegetal ropes attached in the middle as a handle. Experts believe the entire face was once covered in more than 100 feathers arranged in several concentric circles. This was a delicate object reserved for ceremonial uses, not for combat.
Pañamarca is the southernmost Moche monumental site and has been repeatedly explored starting at the end of the 19th century. Although it has often been the target of looters, the temple contains a unique archaeological treasure in the form of murals on almost every wall. Other Moche centers are painted with geometric shapes and repeated motifs of deities and human figures. Pañamarca’s murals are narrative, religious scenes and mythological events, of a kind found only in a single mural at the New Temple of Huaca de la Luna. The Pañamarca artists had a style of their own, possibly inspired by ceramic decoration or tapestries.
Despite their singular importance, the murals had yet to be fully documented and recorded. The 2010 field project aimed to rectify this oversight. The team who found the fan was looking for the remains of Murals B and D, first discovered in 1950 but later thought to have been destroyed. Mural B is a painting of a Strombus Monster, a Moche mythological creature with snail and cat-like features. This figure is often found on decorated ceramics accompanied by a hero-god known as “Wrinkle Face.” Mural D is an Iguana figure with a serrated tail who wears a bird headdress, carries a bag and a shell and is often seen on ceramics along with Wrinkle Face.
The team only had old drawings to go on and both murals were damaged and incomplete even in 1950 so there are inaccuracies in the sketches. In the monumental core of the temple, sealed off during an ancient renovation and long since picked clean by looters, archaeologists found a small niche-like room with what was left of the Strombus Monster and Wrinkle Face’s Iguana attendant. More than half of the paint still surviving in 1950 is now gone, however what is left has been meticulously recorded so artists could render the murals in proper scale and full color for the first time.
When the walls were cleared of sand, debris and rubble of crumbled adobe and mortar, archaeologists realized that the original floor of the chamber had been covered with three layers of adobe bricks. Conservators carefully removed the bricks, revealing the end of the Iguana’s tail and the red bands that frame the top and bottom of the murals. The newly unveiled tail segment had been covered when the chamber was sealed in the late Moche period (c.600–850 A.D.), keeping the polychrome paint in excellent condition. The red, blue and dark blue colors are still saturated and vibrant, an important clue for archaeologists trying to determine the color depth and range of Moche murals.
Underneath the last layer of bricks were a centimeter or two of soil. After they removed the thin layer of soil, the team found that the floor had been cut out leaving a sloping surface that could have been used a bench or an altar. They saw a basketry artifact near the edge of the sloped surface. It looked like a simple flat basket with ropes attached, but when they lifted it up, they saw that it was a shield placed face-downward.
They identified it as shield because shields are common motifs in Moche art. There are very few actual shields in the archaeological record, however, and none of them are like this one. The others were all discovered in a funerary context, were made of hardier stuff — cane and leather for the shield found in a tomb at Huaca de la Luna, gilded copper platelets attached to the face of an unknown organic material that had decayed before discovery at the Moche center of Dos Cabezas — and are larger. The feathers, if analysis confirms them to be from a blue-and-gold macaw, were imports since macaws aren’t native to the northern coast of Peru. In context, form, material and size, this feather shield is the only one of its kind known to exist.
It was probably left as an offering. The shield appears to have been placed in the room right before it was sealed. The paintings were also done right around that time, while the walls are considerably older. At some point between 600 and 850 A.D., the temple was renovated with new murals added to spaces like the core niche. After the painting was done, the shield was carefully placed face down on the altar and then the space was filled with adobe, closing in the shield with the murals for 1300 years.

by Anne C. Osterman
We have all been there a thousand times – the decision to deal with something quickly to meet the immediate need versus the decision to take the longer, more difficult route. Technology and its associated capture and exchange of information have accelerated abilities and expectations to such an extent that it becomes hard for long-term patterns to show their relevance and long-term needs to get attention. We should be slow-moving giraffes, browsing at the top of the tree, taking in the broad picture of the world around us, but we become the mice scurrying around at the roots.
Within the world of scholarly information, this has a number of effects. Students, and even faculty, tear through research resources looking for the nuggets they need rather than digesting the fuller context; library reference services become increasingly transactional, seeking to meet needs as quickly as possible and drifting further from the relationship-building, teaching moments they can be; libraries needing to create space for a new makerspace do a fast weed of books based only on local evidence.
Because a faster pace is possible, and expected in today’s world, it drowns out the long-term. When we become reactionary, with immediate needs feeling paramount, the important issues of sustainability and preservation drift away, always being pushed to the next day. It isn’t deliberate or conscious, just the result of a series of daily decisions. With all the available distractions of a technology-filled life, the human attention span diminishes, and this diminishes organizational attention spans as well.
This pattern is clear in the booming world of Open Educational Resources (OER). Entities across the higher education landscape are wading into a variety of open and affordable course content initiatives to beat back the impact of escalating textbook costs on students, but in the rush to fill a gap, we are at risk of losing ourselves in a sea of digital detritus. Resources are hosted on faculty websites and created with links to external services such as YouTube, open content becomes trapped in for-profit platforms, and the beauty of open – the ability to change resources to suit a given need – creates incredibly difficult challenges with versioning.
It is harder and more expensive to plan for platform interoperability, the migration of file formats, and the colocation and hierarchical organization of all associated files (not only multimedia but also ancillaries such as lecture slides and homework questions), but in the long term it will be worth it. We all want to do this well – really well – because it speaks to the core of supporting faculty and students in a market that otherwise feels unsustainable in so many ways, from tuition costs to journal prices. But creating materials that will be effectively lost in five years does no one any favors.
The wonderful thing about OER for libraries and library consortia is that their role and value could not be clearer. Libraries are hubs of information, they are organizational powerhouses, they are committed to serving users wherever they are. Libraries can be leaders in managing and organizing faculty-created course content, both in defining problems and addressing them.
The concept of library as publisher, although no longer in its infancy, is still fairly new to the academy. University presses and libraries have formed partnerships, repositories and publishing platforms are proliferating, and we see a steady and growing stream of open journals being launched across campuses. But with the boom of OER and open textbooks, libraries will gain a singular experience as publishers, and the result of this could take a number of routes. There will likely be an initial sympathy with traditional publishers as libraries struggle with the challenges of quality selection and editing, keeping content current and relevant, and enabling access and discovery of materials, but eventually this may be a route to building confidence and experience that will be useful in playing a larger role in the wider Open Access movement.
Thank goodness for important efforts like OpenStax, the Open Textbook Library, OER Commons, and PressBooks. They are creating a foundation of tools and resources for a new and exciting world that empowers the creators of course content to have a larger impact than ever. But the problem of sustainability cannot be left to central entities to handle for the community; let the recent loss of the Digital Preservation Network (DPN) and change to the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) be lessons learned and not repeated. There are both significant financial challenges (grant funds aren’t forever) and personnel challenges (librarians have been asked to do an increasing variety of roles as expectations for libraries have grown, often without a decrease of their existing responsibilities) to address. The unfortunate reality is that sustainability and long-term value is a steady uphill climb for everyone, but the good news is that, together, we can all decrease the slope a bit. Broad and deep investment in the longer view with OER now will ensure bountiful harvests each year into the future.
The sustainability of the OER movement is not unlike long-term health for the human body. All of the micro-decisions that we make every day about what to eat, how much to move, and how to deal with stress build into an investment in our futures. The more that we can take a brisk walk with OER instead of settling in with a bowl of ice cream, the better off all of us will be.
For further discussion:
-What do you think are the greatest challenges to a future of sustainable, discoverable OER? What would you suggest to address these challenges?
-What is the role of professional associations (library, faculty, and otherwise) in the OER ecosystem?
-There are many benefits to collaboration within disciplines with OER, such as avoiding the creation of multiple materials that address the same need. What strategies do you think would work to connect faculty with one another?

Cai Lun was called into the Palace to serve the Emperor at the age of 15. He was smart and studied hard. Soon he was promoted to be an attending official in charge of documentation. At that time, documents were written either on tablets of bamboo strips or on silk. Bamboo strips were heavy and silk was expensive. The Emperor was very unhappy about it. Therefore, Cai Lun was determined to find another durable material that would be good for writing including a light-weight quality with a soft writing surface.
This book collects ancient and modern inventions. Some are revolutionary, others comical, others simply impossible. But each testifies to the extraordinary imagination of its inventor. You’ll find a flying bicycle, a bubble telegraph, passenger clouds and passenger birds, mechanical chess players, a water clock, a concentration hood, and many more incredible ideas.
After the Kang brothers get in trouble at school, they devise a way to make paper, which will make things easier for both their teacher and themselves, in a tale that includes a historical note and a recipe for home-made paper.

Pallas, Christopher L. (2010) Revolutionary, advocate, agent, or authority: context-based assessment of the democratic legitimacy of transnational civil society actors. Ethics and Global Politics, 3 (3). 217 -238. ISSN 1654-4951
The literature on transnational civil society encompasses a number of conflicting views regarding civil society organizations' (CSOs) behavior and impacts and the desirability of civil society involvement in international policymaking. This piece suggests that this lack of consensus arises from the diverse range of contexts in which CSOs operate and the wide variety of activities in which they engage. This article seeks to organize and analyze the disparate data on civil society by developing a context-based standard of democratic legitimacy for CSOs. The article disaggregatcs democracy into input, throughput, and output components, and shows how CSOs must support or manifest different aspects of democracy in order to be democratically legitimate in a given context. Applying this standard to existing works, the article identifies several problems in current research, including a failure to recognize ways the democratic imperatives of transnational advocacy differ from national advocacy, and the potential for international civil society interventions to undermine local democratic processes.

injection. Shane, now 11, received the MMR jab at 13 months
old, and is now doubly incontinent and wheelchair bound. Fadi, now

James Merow, the senior judge in Mario's case, echoed these views when he concluded: "There is a wealth of persuasive support....for the proposition that the MMR vaccine can cause transverse myelitis.." But the Department of Health said there is "no established link" between the MMR vaccine and transverse myelitis

Beijing Daily (Chinese: 北京日报; pinyin: Běijīng rìbào) is the official newspaper of the CPC Beijing Municipal Committee. Founded on October 1, 1952, it has since 2000 been owned by the Beijing Daily Group, which also runs eight other newspapers. It has a circulation of about 400,000 per day, making it one of the most widely circulated newspapers in the city.
Cover of Beijing Daily on 1 October 1952
|Owner(s)||Beijing Daily Group|
|Founded||October 1, 1952|
|Headquarters||Dongcheng District, Beijing|
When the People's Liberation Army occupied Beijing, the organ of the Beijing Party Committee was Beiping Jiefang Bao (Beiping Liberation News), but this soon ceased publication because many journalists had to move southward with the army. The committee felt it was necessary to create a new party newspaper, so preparatory work started in March 1951. In 1952, Fan Jin came from Tianjin, and was appointed as the director of the Beijing Daily preparatory group. On October 1 of the same year, publication of Beijing Daily started.
The paper's header was inscribed by Mao Zedong. The Inaugural Issue was drafted by Liao Mosha, then Head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Beijing Committee, and edited by Mayor Peng Zhen. When its publication started, it lacked articles to receive, many contents were identical to those in People's Daily. At a conference held on October 16, Peng Zhen advocated to publish shorter and more local articles. Shortly afterwards, a labor strike broke out, Beijing Daily fought a successful propaganda campaign. From then, the newspaper became popular among workers in Beijing.
From 1963 to 1966, the newspaper did not cooperate with the Gang of Four. It refused to reprint Yao Wenyuan's criticism of Hai Rui Dismissed from Office. For that reason it was criticized as an "anti-party instrument" by the Guangming Daily and People's Liberation Army Daily on May 8, 1966.:150 Then CPC Central Committee North China Bureau sent a work group to the newspaper office, reorganized the editorial board. On September 3, 1966, it was forced to cease publication. On March 17, 1967, the headquarters of PLA Beijing garrison declared military control of the newspaper office, many staff members were criticized and denounced. In April of the same year its publication resumed.:151 During the Cultural Revolution, Beijing Daily, along with other local newspapers, followed the leftist policy of Mao, made propaganda reports on "typical paths" of socialist construction.:208–211
In the following years, the Military Control Commission, Military Propaganda Team, Labour's Propaganda Team were removed. In August 1972, a new leading board was formed. After 1976, they began to deal with the remaining problems of Cultural Revolution.:151 On January 1, 1991, laser typesetting system was first introduced. In January 2001, they built a new printing center, the main factory building has an area of 30000 square meters. In October 2012, a new news editing center of 40000 square meters architectural area was built.
The newspaper is now published in 16 pages. It reports on international, domestic and local news as well as economy, society, culture and sports in Beijing. There are 4 special issues, 6 supplements published every week. Each page contains 10 to 30 reports. Sometimes they use magnified photographs, lines, entoilages and lace to increase beauty grade.
In 1958, the daily continually published more than 10 editorials on mechanization and semi-mechanization. The same year, a special column "Thought Discussion" was created (inspired by China Youth Daily), and attracted many manuscripts received from the folks. Liu Shaoqi once participated in a discussion on "Should the communists have individual voluntary?", his words was sorted out in an article published by Beijing Daily. In the atmosphere of Great Leap Forward, it also falsely reported many cases of ever-higher grain production. For example, there was a report stating that a production brigade could raise the rice yield to 5000 - 6000 jin per mu. In 1961, the newspaper office and the department of village affairs of Beijing committee formed a survey group to investigate the villager's views about collective dining rooms. They found out that most villagers are opposed to eat in those rooms, and published a report about that.
As an official media, Beijing Daily has propagated many stories of "advanced individuals" and "advanced collectivities". Among them are: tiler Zhang Baifa, woodcutter's crew leader Li Ruihuan, fitter Ni Zhifu, hygiene worker Shi Chuanxiang, Tianqiao Department Store, Shijingshan Steel Corporation Dolomite Workshop, Pack Basket Store at Zhoukoudian Supply & Marketing Cooperative, Nanhanji Production Brigade, salesman Zhang Binggui, Great Wall Raincoat Company manager Zhang Jieshi and Big Bowl Tea Trade Group. From January to March 1971, it continually published hundreds of stories, quotations, and photographs of Wang Fuguo, a Daxing County party branch secretary. These reports strongly exaggerated his "routes struggle" consciousness. In September 1973, it published a letter from a primary school student who had conflicts with his teacher. The letter was praised by Gang of Four, and was described as "introducing an important question about education reform".:212
The Theory Weekly is published every Monday, comprising four pages. Its main readers are members of party and government organizations. About a third of the articles are less than 1000 words. Three fifths of the theory propaganda articles appear on the front page of the weekly.:150–153 About half of the articles are interpretations to CPC files or lectures given by party leaders. 1/4 of articles discuss social problems and social thoughts.:156

The Board of Trustees approved plans for the initial steps and planned projects to begin after the successful ballot measure for a dedicated 1-cent sales tax increase for street and park sustainability. The ballot also included a second question which passed to allow the town of Firestone to accrue debt to accelerate construction.
The Board of Trustees and town staff have meet to determine a schedule for planned projects, some of which will be cash funded and others through bonds.
Projects planned for 2014 include:
Firestone Boulevard will be expanded completely to four lanes from Birch Street to Cimarron Street to allow for greater accessibility to the Firestone community. This expansion is expected to be completed by fall 2014.
In 2013 the town expanded Firestone Boulevard from the Frontage Road to Birch Street to allow four lanes of travel. The additional lanes added on the south side were paved and then chip sealing was installed over the entire road to preserve and lengthen the useful life of the roadway. This project was not a complete new paving job, as only the additional lanes were paved.
Sable Avenue Trail
Engineering will be designing a trail along Sable Avenue that will connect the intersection of Birch Street and Sable Avenue to the Firestone Trail that runs along Colorado Boulevard. This will allow for safer travel of students accessing schools, as well as all residents wanting access to the community trail system. Construction is slated for 2015.
Engineering will be designing a rehabilitation of Colorado Boulevard headed north from the Oak Meadows neighborhood to County Road 26. Construction is slated for 2015.
The Engineering department will begin the first phase of a three-year pavement assessment. The town will be separated into three areas of which the first will be evaluated in 2014. Following the assessment in 2014, streets and water lines in historic Firestone will begin rehabilitation in 2015. This involves studying the condition of all roads within the designated segment to determine their condition. This process will thoroughly detail the roads within the three areas and rank which roads will need future repairs based on their current assessment.
Firestone Gateway Project
The engineering design will begin on the Firestone Boulevard Gateway project to provide a build out of the boulevard to Bailey Street. The project will include curb and gutter, center medians and landscape. Construction slated for 2015.

Publisher: Takara (1992)
This 2D fighting game may have been okay in 1992, but now it's hopelessly outdated. There are eleven total fighters, but "player one" can only select from three of them. What's up with that
? There are no female fighters either. The animation is mediocre, the background scenery is dull, and the audio really
sucks. The hits and their sound effects aren't even in sync! A three-button control scheme allows you to kick, punch, and throw, but the action feels shallow compared to Street Fighter 2 series. © Copyright 2001 The Video Game Critic.
Publisher: Takara (1994)
Fatal Fury 2 marks a dramatic improvement over the original one-on-one fighter. There are only eight fighters, but you can choose from any of them. The animation is improved, and the background scenery is quite attractive. The controls have been revamped to include high and low kicks, high and low punches, and two additional attacks. Certain moves even let you to move between the foreground or background planes, giving the game a 3D element. The audio is still weak though, with muffled sound effects and tunes you won't find yourself singing in the shower. The main thing that struck me about Fatal Fury 2 is how similar it is to Street Fighter 2. Not only are the controls similar, but the overall presentation is a carbon copy, all the way down the to globe on the character select screen. And one last thing - could they come up with a less attractive group of fighters? I mean, there's only one female, and half of the characters are obese! © Copyright 2001 The Video Game Critic.

You would expect Final Fight 2 to be an improvement over the original, but it's actually less
fun. There are three characters to choose from, including Haggar (from the last game), Carlos (replacing Cody), and a shapely blonde named Maki. New features include a much-needed two-player mode, an option menu, and Haggar's new suplex move. Otherwise it's the same side-scrolling action you've seen before, with most of the thugs shamelessly recycled from the last game. They aren't any smarter this time around, although they do perform cheap "chest butt" running attacks. Never in my life have I seen such a boring, uninspired collection of stages. Each takes place in a different area of the world, so you'd expect them to see some exotic scenery, right? But no, you find yourself in an airport in Hong Kong, a construction site in France, a sewer
in Germany, and a train depot in England! Ugh! And then there's the difficulty level, which is absolutely pathetic
. The first Final Fight was easy enough, but this one is a complete cakewalk, constantly awarding you with new lives and piling on six continues! Far too easy and repetitive, you'll probably switch off Final Fight 2 long before you've gone exhausted your lives. © Copyright 2004 The Video Game Critic.

This overlooked vertical shooter lets you play as a tank or helicopter, or team up with a friend to unleash some major destruction! First impressions are important, and Firepower 2000 does not disappoint with a nice intro featuring some outstanding thumping music! Quality audio and crisp, vibrant graphics makes it clear that this is not
a Genesis shooter. And Firepower 2000 plays as good as it looks. Each vehicle has its own abilities and advantages. The tank can shoot in all directions, but the helicopter is more mobile and not affected by surface terrain. The shoulder buttons toggle your weapons, each of which has three levels of power. The explosions are quite satisfying. Firepower 2000 is a blast, especially with two players. © Copyright 2002 The Video Game Critic.

In the arcade, Gradius III was one of the most insanely difficult games you could ever encounter. The SNES version of this side-scrolling space shooter is much easier, which is probably a good thing. The key to the game is collecting pods to cash in for weapons and power-ups. There's quite a bit of strategy involved in selecting the proper power-up for the situation. The graphics here are nearly identical to the arcade, although slow-down rears its ugly head all too often and threatens to ruin the fun. When there are too many objects on the screen, the action slows to a crawl, only to speed up again when things clear out. Not only is this annoying, but it adversly affects the flow of the game. That's too bad, because otherwise this is a solid all-around shooter. © Copyright 2002 The Video Game Critic.

Are ''Extraneous Offense'' Evidence Admissible In Texas ?
The general rule is that an accused may not be tried for being a criminal generally. Couret v. State, 792 S.W.2d 106, 107 (Tex. Crim. App. 1990); Dabney v. State, 816 S.W.2d 525, 527 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 1991, pet. ref'd).
Evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts is not admissible if it does nothing more than establish the bad character of an accused person in order to show action in conformity therewith. TEX. R. EVID. 404(b).
The trial court has no discretion to admit such evidence over objection. Montgomery v. State, 810 S.W.2d 372, 387 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (opin. on reh'g).
Extraneous offense evidence may be relevant apart from its tendency to show character conformity, such as for purposes of proving motive, opportunity, intent, preparation, plan, knowledge, identity, or absence of mistake or accident. TEX. R. EVID. 404(b).
Evidence is "relevant" that has "any tendency to make the existence of any fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action more probable or less probable than it would be without the evidence." TEX. R. EVID. 401.
All relevant evidence is admissible except as otherwise provided by the rules.
Evidence which is not relevant is inadmissible. TEX. R. EVID. 402.
It is incumbent upon the proponent of the evidence to satisfy its relevance in order to allow the trial court to determine if its probative value substantially outweighs the inflammatory aspects of unfair prejudice caused by the introduction of the damaging evidence. TEX. R. EVID. 403.
If the proof necessary to establish an elemental fact of the primary offense cannot be inferred from the act itself, or if the accused presents evidence to rebut the inference of such fact, evidence of extraneous offenses can be admissible if they are relevant to the issue and their prejudice does not outweigh the probative value of the evidence. Johnson v. State, 932 S.W.2d 296, 302 (Tex. App.--Austin 1996, pet. ref'd); Hurtado v. State, 722 S.W.2d 184, 188 (Tex. App.--Houston [14th Dist.] 1986, pet. ref'd).
However, when the elemental fact can be inferred from the act itself and the defense does not contest this element, admission of an extraneous offense oftentimes is cumulative of the proof established and serves only to demonstrate the accused's bad character. See Albrecht v. State, 486 S.W.2d 97, 101 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Jones v. State, 481 S.W.2d 900, 902 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972).

MS-128: Papers of William C. Darrah
MS – 128: Papers of William C. Darrah as a Faculty Member at Gettysburg College
(1 box, .27 cubic feet)
Inclusive Dates: 1953-1988
Bulk Dates: 1953-1974
Processed by: G. Ronald Couchman
Given to Musselman Library by Mrs. Elsie Darrah Morey, daughter of William Darrah in September 1990
William (Bill) Culp Darrah was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, January 12, 1909. He earned the degree of Bachelor of Science from the University of Pittsburgh with majors in geology and botany. From 1934 to 1942 Darrah conducted research and taught at Harvard University in the division of biology and later as research curator of paleobotany at the Harvard Botanical Museum. In 1942, he joined Raytheon Manufacturing Company, a major war-time technological company, as an engineer and later as Assistant Head in the Research and Development Department.
Because of the loss of vision in one eye which put him at risk in the laboratories, in 1951, deciding to venture out on his own as an independent researcher and writer, Darrah relocated to a farm outside of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. He soon found himself active in the academic community of Gettysburg College as a lecturer in the freshman and sophomore level general education program, as director of an experimental adult education program, and later as an assistant and then full professor in the biology department.
Bill Darrah was a renaissance man whose interests ranged widely and whose literary output in the areas of his interest was significant. His publications included a paleobotany textbook; a biography of John Wesley Powell, a late 19th century scientist and explorer and later Director of the United States Geological Survey; a story of the early days of the petroleum industry; an exploration of Pennsylvania flora; a history of stereographs in America; cartes de visite in 19th century photograph; and the history of the engineering program at Gettysburg College.
Darrah retired from the college in 1974. Gettysburg College awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters in 1977. He married Helen Marie Hilsman in 1934 and they had two daughters Barbara Anne and Elsie Louise. He died in 1989.
At his memorial service he was remembered as one who had the God-given gift of teaching. For years, students flocked to his courses which were frequently over-subscribed. Yet he turned no-one away. His legacy survives him through the William C. Darrah Endowment fund at Gettysburg College which provides support to the Biology Department, scholarships to students in biology, and a visiting scientist lecture series offered in his name.
Scope and Content Notes
This collection consists of material retained by William Darrah as it related to his position as an administrator and a faculty member at Gettysburg College. It includes correspondence, primarily from students, former students and parents of students; a report of his administrative activities as director of a continuing education program attempted by the College in the mid-1950s; a review of the varied research and presentation interests of Mr. Darrah while a member of the faculty; and materials that preserves his legacy to his profession, to his interests in the history of photography, science and technology, and to Gettysburg College.
This collection is divided into four Series. Series 1: Correspondence includes correspondence from September 1957 through January 1988. The bulk of the correspondence covers the two decades of the 1960s and 1970s when Darrah was the most active as a faculty advisor. It is worth noting that over two-thirds of the letters from students, former students, and parents of students contain a statement of thanks and appreciation for his advice, support or help. Series II: Continuing Education Program documents Darrah’s activities within the Adult Education Division, the experimental continuing education program that he directed for Gettysburg College, 1953-1955. It includes Darrah’s fair and honest assessment of the program in which he recommended that the program be terminated because of low enrollments and increased competition from other area agencies and institutions. Series III: Research and Presentations provides a glimpse into some of the varied areas of Darrah’s research interests and the presentation of some of that research to the college and community, including some correspondence relative to research for Darrah’s monograph on the History of Engineering at Gettysburg College and a handwritten copy of a lecture which he gave during the Commencement weekend when the College awarded to him the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters. Series IV: Legacy contains material that highlights Darrah’s legacy to his profession as a paleobotonist, to his interest in photography, and to the College where he served as an honored and respected member of the faculty.

Nigeria: Orhii - Fighting Drug Counterfeiting Getting Dangerous
Fighting adulteration of drugs is getting more dangerous and difficult with the entry of former hard drug dealers into the fake medicine business but NAFDAC's Director-general, Dr. Paul Orhii, tells journalists how he is tackling this and other challenges.
Aow my administration is different...
"When I came to the agency in January 2009, first and foremost, I said I would build on what I found on ground and next I said I'd like to take it to the next level, to bring international standards to bear so that NAFDAC will be comparable to international food and drug regulatory agencies anywhere in the world like the US, Canada and Britain.
First and foremost, even the desire to build on what I found on the ground is unusual in Nigeria history. Often, you run down your predecessor and even begin to demolish some of the structures you met on ground, even sack some of the staff hired by your predecessor and hire new staff to start again, which I think has not been helpful to us. There are no institutions. Whatever happens depends on personalities and once the person leaves, everything is destroyed and we start all over again. So, building on what I met on ground was a good strategy and I think that's the way agencies should be run, institutions, not personalities.
Using public enlightenment ...
We built on the strengths I met, like the public enlightenment. We tried to fine-tune them and expand them. For example, we made our public enlightenment more focused and more educational. We have radio and television programmes. We concentrated on our drug safety clubs in secondary schools. Now, we have worked with the Ministry of Education to build NAFDAC activities into secondary school curricula. So, these are things that we expanded. On infrastructure, the laboratories that I found on ground, I decided to upgrade them, to refurbish some of them that were already decaying. For example, Agulu laboratory that my predecessor started, which is uncompleted, we completed it during my administration. In 2010, the president was there to commission it himself. We upgraded the Oshodi laboratory to international standard and is undergoing WHO accreditation. We also refurbished and upgraded the Yaba laboratory to international standard. Right now it is undergoing international certification. The Kaduna laboratory that has been burnt down since 2004, we rebuilt it and is now of international standard and we are about to commission it. We fought one of the greatest fights against fake and adulterated drugs and consolidated that fight. If you remember, counterfeit drugs were first detected in 1968. By 2001, more than 40 per cent of the drugs in the country were counterfeit or substandard. Due to the effort of my predecessor, by 2005, counterfeit drugs were reduced to 16.7 per cent. So, I have to build on that.

First impressions are important, and that is the case for the exterior design of your commercial building. Your business needs to leave a mark on the clients. One way to do that is by having an impressive layout of your facility. Though you will not be handling the actual design, you have a say on what you wish to incorporate. You understand your industry, and your business facility should meet your requirements. Here are some useful aspects to help you during the design phase of your business establishment.
Create an Attractive Entrance
If you wish to get customers to come into your commercial property, find ways to make a lasting impression. You can achieve that by coming up with an attractive front entrance. Use contrasting colours to make the entryway stand out. The entry should have bolder colours than the rest of the building. Adding special features such as lighting and seating can help put the clients at ease. Other soft comforts like plants also create a welcoming effect.
Use the Right Windows
Apart from choosing durable windows, you should also get the ones that look good. Small windows will not allow enough light to get into your building and do not look great. Modern offices look great with large expansive windows. But, if you wish to stick to the traditional rectangular windows, ensure they are symmetrical. Choose windows that fit in with the rest of your space. Since there are various designs, get functional and durable windows for your area.
Landscape the Outdoors
Landscaping is more than placing plants at the front of your commercial establishment. The first step should be to research the local soil conditions and native plants in your area. Planning the landscape is essential because it takes time for plants to grow. Thus, it is best to start the project early. Plants tend to create an inviting space. Once you get it right, you can transform your outdoor space. You will, however, need to be patient.
Use the Right Materials
The market offers many texture options you can use in your business facility. Therefore, it can be hard to find the right one to use. Ensure you find a balance between aesthetics and durability. Also, you should get materials that are a reflection of your style. For instance, you can use tumbled stones to achieve a country style. It is best to consult a design architect so that you find the ideal materials to use.
Designing the exterior of a commercial building is not easy. It is best to work with commercial building design architects through each stage. That way, you will not make mistakes that cost you in the future.

Former UGA QB David Greene Previews Alabama vs. Georgia [Audio]
In three days, the SEC will have their ninth national championship team in the last 12 seasons as Georgia and Alabama square off in Atlanta Monday night.
In 2002, the Bulldogs broke a two-decade SEC dry spell as sophomore signal caller David Greene led the program to their first conference title since 1982.
During Thursday’s edition of Inside the Locker Room, former Georgia quarterback David Greene looked ahead to the big game Monday night.
The former Bulldogs quarterback examined a number of areas surrounding the game including the play of Georgia’s Jake Fromm and Alabama’s Jalen Hurts at quarterback.
While Greene played under Mark Richt, he had positive things to say about how Kirby Smart has raised the bar in Athens.
“Kirby has brought a confidence, I guess raised the bar from an expectation standpoint as well.” Greene said.
An area that the former UGA signal caller sees the development of Bulldogs football is the intense support of the fans.
“It has shown this year where Kirby’s kind of set the blueprint and it’s working and the fan base is going berserk.” Greene said.
Concerning Monday night, Greene broke down his outlook and keys for the game.
“I do think it is going to be a lower scoring game. I think it’s going to have to be because I don’t think we’re going to be able to light up Alabama’s defense by any means. So, I think in Georgia’s favor we’re going to have to try and keep it lower scoring.” Greene stated.
Catch Inside the Locker Room every weekday from 7-9 AM on Tide 102.9/100.9 and the Tide 102.9 app.

"Make every album as if it's your last," is Snow Patrol's motto, and if, heaven forfend, their second album should be their swansong, it would certainly stand as a fine legacy.
Fiona Reid, 15 Feb 2001
There's nothing remotely messy about this follow up to the excellent but feedback-doused Songs For Polar Bears; they've let go of the rampant fuzziness and distortion of old and soft-focussed on songs of delicate and profound perfection.
It's like swimming through a warm pool of keyboard ripples, fragile vocals and occasionally piquant guitars. With nothing forced, not an intonation out of place, and so much unhurried confidence and grace that they no longer need to kick up a fuss to grab our attention, there are only a handful of tracks here which will easily lend themselves to Snow Patrol's penchant for a good onstage ruckus - 'Making Enemies', 'Chased by... I Don't Know What' or the slow deliberate build up of the title track are as hard as things get.
While such comparisons are probably too obvious to make, the opening whimper of 'Black And Blue' recalls labelmates Belle and Sebastian, at least until the rock riff kicks in, while they capture an uncanny Red House Painters eerieness on 'If I'd Found The Right Words To Say.' Their strongest reference point, though, is immediately apparent, especially in the single 'Ask Me How I Am' and 'The Last Ever Lone Gunman', both of which could could easily be mistaken for Lou Barlow at his best, in either Sebadoh or Folk Implosion incarnations.
'When It's All Over . . .' is True Romance, a diary of sweetness and sadness that never waxes too winsome or coy, and I loved every sumptuous hook-laden minute of it. There are magical moments aplenty, but if I had to choose a song to accompany me to a desert island (and I would definitely want one of these) then it would be the tragic simplicity of 'On Off' - "Nobody's perfect, that's what I say/ No one has hurt me so much, you say/ I'm sorry . . ."
The album that reaches a quiet place within the chaos. A bit of a classic, then.
In what is an important global first, Intune Networks, the Dublin based telecoms equipment supplier, today announced that it will give the first demonstration of its ground breaking 'optical burst' technology, with a live, high definition transmission of the Snow Patrol concert on December 5th, part of the Other Voices festival in Dingle.
Snow Patrol were forced to play their Saturday night headlining slot at Oxegen without keyboard-player Tom Simpson after he was arrested at Northolt RAF base where the band were catching a private plane to Dublin following their Live Earth performance.
The soundtrack to the third
film features tracks from The Killers and The Flaming Lips, but the honour of lead track goes to ‘Signal Fire’ by Snow Patrol. The sound is – well, like any other Snow Patrol song: sweeping guitar chords building with percussion to the chorus.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find a musician in Norn Iron next week as anyone who can bang, blow or strum an instrument clears off to Washington DC for the Rediscover Northern Ireland Arts & Culture Program.
“I want so much to open your eyes/’cos I need you to look into mine”. Seriously, who is Gary singing to? I like to think that the pin-up of Irish rock still writes his songs for someone in particular and that he isn’t just pulling at his many female fans’ heart-strings, especially when the predictable orchestral bit kicks in towards the end. If this is indeed the case, she’s a lucky lady. If not, shame on you Mr. Lightbody!
Forget all the chatter about solo albums and injuries sustained on the road: Snow Patrol are revelling in the end of a triumphant year, one which saw Eyes Open become the biggest selling album in the UK in '06, as well as making serious inroads Stateside.
Champagne corks were popped last week as Snow Patrol joined that elite group of bands who’ve simultaneously topped the charts in Ireland and the UK. It’s all a far cry from the days when their fame was confined to the University of Dundee Students Union bar. Gary Lightbody takes time out from wowing the masses in Dublin and Belfast to tell Stuart Clark about their twisty and turny route to the top.
Snow Patrol should by rights have settled back into their bland phase by now, yet Lightbody & co are showing disturbing signs of still caring about the music they make. ‘Chasing Cars’ is lovely, again choosing to move slowly to a crescendo before unleashing a festival-slaying conclusion.
Snow Patrol‘s Gary Lightbody may be the thinking woman’s indie sexpot, but with their new album
going supernova all over the shop, the poor fella has no time to capitalise on his status, given that the only people he sees on a regular basis are his band and crewmates. With whom, he assures us, “penetrative sex is out of the question.” Also on the agenda: break-ups, infidelity, the Northern body politic, U2 and, of course, underpants.
As the sun sets over Dublin Castle, Snow Patrol kick off the first outdoor festival of 2006 with intent. But the early, heady pace set by
favourites 'Wow' and 'Chocolate' is soon interrupted by the new material from Eyes Open.
The word ‘luck’ turns up in the Snow Patrol story with set-your-watch regularity, and it’s commonly accepted that the period when the band cashed in theirs was around the release of their biggest selling single. I’m not sure I agree. The care and detail lavished on
seems symptomatic of people who, finally rewarded with a budget to match their ambition, are determined to enjoy this opportunity for all it’s worth.
Snow Patrol’s former record company, Jeepster, cash in on the band’s newfound success by re-releasing their
Songs For Polarbears
and When It’s All Over We Still Have To Clear Up
albums in expanded form.
There’s no fear of Snow Patrol surprising us. ‘You’re All I Have’ is as safe a return as you might expect from the Belfast band. Chugging guitar lines and baby faced vocals characterise three minutes of Gary Lightbody’s pleas “to hold on” to whatever girl may or may not inspired this rehash of previous offerings. Its incessantly warm and catchy chorus may make this no bad thing necessarily but we could really do without
“It’s the toughest thing we’ve ever had to do, it’s broken our fucking hearts.” While the recent sacking of founder member Mark McClelland has taken its toll on Gary Lightbody, the Snow Patrol mainman remains upbeat about their not-at-all-difficult fourth album, supporting U2 and their own stadium headliner in Killarney. Interview by Colin Carberry. Photography by Bradley Quinn
After 12 months which saw the group go from the indie B-division to rock’s premier league, Snow Patrol have had a more dramatic 2004 than most. In an in-depth interview, Gary Lightbody discusses a life-changing year, the Irish and British music scenes, friendships, relationships and where the band go to next.
Arms outstretched, swanky lighting awarding him a most pleasing rock star silhouette, it’s safe to say that right now, in a venue where he witnessed some of his own favourite gigs, Gary Lightbody is having a pretty good day at the office.
Okay, it's not me or any of the other 1300 Ambassador ticket-holders who've been all over the charts like a rash recently, but that doesn't stop Snow Patrol's top 5 breakthrough feeling like a personal victory.
Clearly subscribers to the “strike while the iron is hot” school of album promotion, no sooner has the Patrol’s breakthrough hit ‘Run’ exited the British top ten than the Northern rockers are rush-releasing the follow-up single.
Things are on the up and up for Snow Patrol whose long-overdue commercial success means they’re now getting matey with pop divas, soap stars and footballers. Gary Lightbody tells Stuart Clark how it all went right.
Tanya Sweeney catches up with Ireland’s hardest partying rockers Snow Patrol to discuss on-the-road hi-jinks, the band’s hallowed status in the Scottish and Irish music scenes, and also bears witness to that long-awaited footie showdown with Thomastown under 15s.

You might not want to tackle building a three-car garage or replacing a roof, but if you want to try your hand at a simple do-it-yourself project, you can count on plenty of expert help.
In addition to workshops at some home centers, plenty of tips, techniques and professional instruction are within easy reach, in some cases as close as your computer.
In addition, the do-it-yourselfer usually can get a step-by-step guide to handling just about any home-improvement project themselves, drawing on the advice, illustrations and photos found in a variety of publications available at libraries or booksellers.
Among the chains, the Home Depot -- the largest home-improvement retailer in the world -- has successfully burnished its image as a do-it-yourself-friendly operation through ongoing clinics and workshops. The retailer, which has 2,234 stores in the United States, Canada, Mexico and China, offers four do-it-yourself clinics every week in each of its stores, as well as a children's workshop once a month and four "Do-It-Herself" workshops.
Targeting 25- to 55-year-old do-it-yourselfers, the clinics -- which tend to draw more women than men -- run about an hour, with 30 minutes of product education followed by 30 minutes of hands-on demonstration on core home-improvement projects as well as seasonal subjects, says company spokeswoman Jean Niemi.
"For instance, we have a standing weekly clinic on installing tile that covers the installation of tiles for floors and walls. Our customer can learn the same basic steps for the installation of a wide variety of projects. They may start with a backsplash or bathroom floor and then take it to walls, shower floors, etc.," she says.
In the spring and summer months, Home Depot clinics cover topics such as water conservation, gardening, landscaping, installing a paver walkway and other outdoor-oriented projects.
"We have seen that once a consumer takes on a project, they tend to continue to take on more, adding to the level of complexity each time," Niemi adds.
You can also attend one of its workshops without stepping out of your house. The Home Depot offers online workshops such as a recent five-part series on how to install crown molding. In addition to visually demonstrating how to do it, the site provides a shopping list of supplies. Previous workshops have provided do-it-yourselfers with instructions on such topics as installing interior lighting fixtures, toilets and faucets, and decorative painting.
ON THE WEB
The Web, in fact, is a popular place for do-it-yourselfers to find the guidance they need. One site, www.doitbest.com, is a virtual encyclopedia of do-it-yourself projects, providing detailed instructions, illustrations, photos, even videos to help you complete the job. A shopping and tool list is also included.
The site is the online storefront for more than 4,100 independently owned hardware and home improvement retailers worldwide that are members of Do it Best Corp., a buying cooperative in the hardware, lumber and building materials industry.
One of the country's best-known authorities on home improvement, television personality Bob Vila, provides online how-to videos on his Web site, www.bobvila.com, where do-it-yourselfers can learn how to apply joint compound to drywall corners, hang a wooden door, repair gutters, even put up a curio shelf. They're among 44 step-by-step how-to's available free on his site.
Another popular do-it-yourself site that provides free online home-improvement tips is www.expertvillage.com, a repository of nearly 83,000 how-to videos and articles by experts on every subject. Its home-improvement and home repair videos provide a broad range of instruction, including the proper way to install a tricky bi-fold door and how to use a miter saw.

Darshan Singh from the University of Science in Malaysia has been studying kratom for several years.
A social scientist, Dr. Singh has found kratom to increase social functioning, lower withdrawal symptoms, and lower risk behaviors among opaite addicts in Malaysia.
While Dr. Singh says kratom can cause an addiction similar to that of coffee, many of the rare reports of liver problems, hair loss, mental issues, and severe addiction have been unique to the United States.
The reason could be that kratom grows naturally in Malaysia, and consumers are drinking tea from local kratom leaves. Most US consumers buy kratom shipped from Indonesia, which can sometimes be adulterated along the supply chain.
“When it goes into America, people are actually adulterating kratom products [with] all kind of funny, funny substances. Harmful substances,” Dr. Singh told Kratom Science. “And then when you start using it…for the first one month you find, ‘Oh it is good! It is really helping me!’ But after one month you start developing all kind of medical problems. And then you go to the hospital in America to the emergency room, and the doctor there says ‘This is interesting. Let’s report about kratom. Kratom can cause liver problems. Kratom can cause psychosis. Kratom can cause mental health problems.’ It’s ridiculous! We don’t get to see all this happening in Malaysia.”
“I was a bit skeptical, so therefore I decided to actually do a blood test. And I found that kratom does not impact liver parameters,” said Dr. Singh. “I am a bit surprised why Americans who use kratom develop all kind of bizarre liver-related disorders.”
Hair loss has also been very rarely reported by kratom consumers as a side effect. Some have found biotin, omega-3 fatty acids, fish oil, iron, and multivitamins have helped them curb this problem. It’s not known why this occurs in rare cases, or if it’s caused by kratom at all. Dr. Singh comments: “I’ve been working with kratom users who have been using kratom for 40 years, 50 years. I see they have a lot of hair on their head. I’ve not seen people who said ‘My hair is falling from kratom’. No such thing. But the reason for the hair loss could be the adulterated kratom products.”
Since kratom is not yet regulated in the US, seasoned kratom consumers know that they have to search to find a good vendor selling pure kratom.
“That is why the American Kratom Association is actually coming up with this proper kratom act, so people get to use high quality or genuine kratom products,” Dr. Singh said of the Kratom Consumer Protection Act. If passed, this measure championed by the AKA would require all US vendors to test and label kratom products.

Why Children Need the Disability Tax Credit
The Disability Tax Credit offers more than financial benefits. People who qualify for this support program are able to claim up to $40,000 and annual tax savings. More so, the Disability Tax Credit raises chances of qualifying for other financial support opportunities too.
This is the case with two benefit programs: the Canada Child Tax Benefit and Child Disability Benefit. Similar to the Disability Tax Credit, these programs are meant to alleviate the financial burdens of raising children with disabilities. Pursuing these options begins with taking the first step.
Starting with the Disability Tax Credit
Applying for the Disability Tax Credit begins with completing the T2201 form. To file a successful Disability Tax Credit Certificate, the applicant must meet qualifications laid out by the Canada Revenue Agency. With a severe and prolonged physical or mental impairment, a child may be eligible for this tax credit. The long-term benefits come in the form of annual tax savings and can serve as compensation for families with excessive medical expenses. More so, through this program, thousands of dollars are available to people with disabilities.
The Disability Tax Credit Helps Qualify for Other Programs
A child must qualify for the Disability Tax Credit in order for the family to receive the Child Disability Benefit (CDB). While the CDB is comparable to the Canada Child Tax Benefit (CCTB), qualifying for one does not guarantee the other. However, it is important to file the Disability Tax Credit Certificate before applying for the CDB and CCTB.
Being granted the Disability Tax Credit is possible for those who have severe and prolonged disabilities. These may be mental or physical challenges that interrupt daily living tasks. Many children are eligible for the Disability Tax Credit; unfortunately, parents or guardians may be unsure of necessary prerequisites.
It is impossible to know if a child will receive the Disability Tax Credit before the T2201 form is submitted. Each application is viewed by the Canada Revenue Agency. A beneficiary is considered based on how the disability affects his or her life from day-to-day.
Teaming up with Benefit Specialists is important when caring for people with disabilities. They can help families understand all the options and how to go about applying for the many benefits available. Contact these professionals for a free consultation. The NBA can assist families, helping them to receive benefits that are owed to them.
Qualifying for the Disability Tax Credit is the first step towards receiving benefits to assist the costs of caring for a disabled child.

At the end of 2016, the Slovenian Ministry of Public Administration presented their new Open Data portal. On this portal, called ‘OPSI - Odprti podatki Slovenije’, Open Data of the whole Slovenian public sector is brought together and made available to the public. The portal, built on Open Source software, is an indirect successor of the National Interoperability Framework Portal. While this portal already presented an extensive number of Open Data sets, providing Open Data was not its core activity. To ensure a primary focus on the users and on Open Data, this new portal is solely dedicated to Open Data activities.
The new portal has a dual function. The first one is providing a central catalogue of all the records and databases of Slovenian public bodies. In this catalogue the metadata about all the Open Data from state authorities, municipalities and other public sector bodies is made available. The second function of the portal is representing a single site where users can find Data in a machine-readable format and with an Open Data licence. This includes Open Data collections which had already been published on different websites.
To help share the stories of organisations making use of Open Data, the portal has a section presenting applications made with their data. A library section is included to provide additional information for visitors regarding Open Data or the policies around this subject in Slovenia and Europe.

Make It So
Many designers enjoy the interfaces seen in science fiction films and television shows. Freed from the rigorous constraints of designing for real users, sci-fi production designers develop blue-sky interfaces that are inspiring, humorous, and even instructive. By carefully studying these “outsider” user interfaces, designers can derive lessons that make their real-world designs more cutting edge and successful. More info or buy the book…
In a market economy characterized by commoditized products and global competition, how do companies gain deep and lasting loyalty from their customers? The key is in providing meaningful customer experiences.
Writing in the tradition of Louis Cheskin, one of the founding fathers of market research, the authors of Making Meaning observe, define, and describe the meaningful customer experience. By consciously evoking certain deeply valued meanings through their products, services, and multidimensional customer experiences, they argue, companies can create more value and achieve lasting strategic advantages over their competitors.

Design is the Problem
Design makes a tremendous impact on the produced world in terms of usability, resources, understanding, and priorities. What we produce, how we serve customers and other stakeholders, and even how we understand how the world works is all affected by the design of models and solutions. Designers have an unprecedented opportunity to use their skills to make meaningful, sustainable change in the world—if they know how to focus their skills, time, and agendas. In Design Is the Problem: The Future of Design Must be Sustainable, Nathan Shedroff examines how the endemic culture of design often creates unsustainable solutions, and shows how designers can bake sustainability into their design processes in order to produce more sustainable solutions.

Articles & Presentations
Interfaces for Understanding
A chapter written at the request of the National Research Council (1996)
Understanding Seductive Interfaces
This is from a presentation back in the late 1990s for the now-defunct Living Surfaces conference. It was based on an article for the ACM.
This is a self-running interactive conversation about Interaction and Interface Design created by me and Peter Spreenberg (then of IDEO) . It was given at the Intermedia conversation in 1995 as an interactive experience for the audience. It was self-running with a human attendant so that audience members could yell out their choices at any time to change the conversation or topic track.
This presentation was given at the TED6 conference in Monterey. It didn’t go over very well… I got some absolutely, uncalled for, violent attacks and some really enthusiastic, congratulations. It wasn’t hard to figure out who was threatened and who was excited. The metaphor of a strip-tease was just too much for most people to handle. It’s unfortunate because it’s a great analogy. Understanding and information function in layers all around us and to get to meaning (to understand), we must learn to peel away the data and the lower levels at each turn. You can’t ever get to the point of generating Wisdom without being ready to deal without yourself on an intimate level (hence the near nudity).
This presentation was given twice at the VISCOMM conferences in 1995 (once in San Francisco and once in New York City). It has also been built into a self-running interactive article. It allows the audience to explore the topic of creating experiences for others in a branching structure. In this case, the content (message) is more important than the structure itself. Some parts are self-running and linear, other parts offer choices for exploration. The topic, interaction design and performance is explored in different facets within the material.

China rail reform skirts big question: who pays
By John Foley
(The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own)
China’s massive rail expansion is good for the economy. Burying it under $420 billion of debt isn’t. The long awaited dismantling of China’s sprawling Ministry of Railways and creation of a new rail company, announced on March 10, is a good moment to change track.
A grand plan to double track length to 120,000 kilometres between 2010 and 2015 is likely to cost over $100 billion a year. It’s worth it. As well as comfort, prestige and low emissions, rail is the ticket to better urbanization. A recent World Bank report calculated that the benefits to a city of better connectivity from high-speed rail could be almost as large as those from saving passengers time and operating costs.
The funding, though, has been pure folly. Projects depend on borrowing from Chinese state banks and issuing bonds – which in turn are mostly bought by the banks. The resulting debt, on a notional 6 percent interest rate, would require $25 billion a year of interest payments. Passengers aren’t rich enough to cover that cost.
It’s not too late to turn things around. The first step is to admit that the government must pay a share. Even successful rail networks like Sweden’s and Japan’s have depended on subsidies and bailouts. It would make sense to turn a chunk of rail-related borrowing into straight sovereign debt, and relieve the newly created China Rail Corp of having to repay it.
Then there’s future investment. Here, it makes sense to link costs to benefits. China could learn from Hong Kong’s mass transit system, which is funded partly through government grants of land. New lines boost land prices, which the operator can either develop and sell, or use as collateral for loans. When Hong Kong’s MTR listed in 2000, property made up 15 percent of its total assets – by June 2012, it was 32 percent.
Finally, funding could come from those who benefit most: heavy industrial companies. Shifting passengers off low-speed lines will relieve chronic overloading. Freight traffic has tripled since 1990, and as much as 40 percent of what rides on the rails is coal. Charge users – notably state-owned enterprises – their fair share, and China’s railways don’t have to end in financial wreckage.

‘The Walking Dead’ “Indifference” Sneak Peek: Will Daryl’s Group Make It Back to the Prison?
Last night’s all-new ‘The Walking Dead‘ episode, “Isolation,” saw Rick realizing he had a killer on his hands, but that’s to say nothing of Daryl, Michonne, Bob and Tyreese, who have about 7,500 to contend with! Next week’s “Indifference” will pick up with Daryl’s group out on the run from a herd of walkers, but will the fab foursome manage to ditch their ravenous fans in an abandoned building or end up trapped in the latest sneak peek?
Amid the babbling incoherence of shock rocker and future ‘Once Upon a Time‘ star Marilyn Manson on ‘Talking Dead,’ show host Chris Hardwick premiered the latest look at next Sunday’s new ‘Walking Dead’ episode, “Indifference,” which sees Daryl and the group’s latest attempt to find a quiet spot away from the walkers interrupted by, you guessed it, more walkers. We’re not sure if the money shot of all 7,500 walkers will play a part in the threat level next week, but even if the group manages to escape the herd, there’s still that 50 or so miles off course without a car they’re faced with.
Then again, we can think of a few impending comic characters to join the scene who might know a thing or two about handling herds, so will Daryl and his group meet a few new friends along the way? Will Tyreese finally go down swinging, or will Bob make a sacrifice play? Check out the latest ‘Walking Dead’ sneak peek of “Indifference” above, and give us your predictions in the comments !

Welcome to the big leagues Brett Pill. For those of you that missed the game last night. Pill hit a 2-run BOMB in his first big league at-bat. The last Giants player to do that was Will (The Thrill) Clark back on 4/8/86.
Pill hit 25 homers for the Fresno Grizzlies this year, and is showing that he has the power potential to do it at the big league level. The Giants should trot him out to first base and see what the kid can do.
We have seen Aubrey Huff struggle for most of the year, and if he continues to do so next year. The Giants may want to give Pill the job at first base, and leave Brandon Belt in left field. It’s a good way to get some good young bats in the lineup.
It’s just something that Brian Sabean and Bruce Bochy should start considering if they want to find a way to jump start the offense with some young talent from the farm system. What’s your thoughts?
~King of Cali (Steven)

JUNE 2013 – The sun sets over Lago di Garda in Italy on a beautiful summer evening. Photo © Mark Zanzig/zanzig.com
The story behind the image
Aren’t sunsets magical? The change from daylight to night happens somewhere on the planet right now, so it shouldn’t be considered as something special. Yet, as there are many issues that prevent a nice sunset, it is something special. For example: Clouds, mountains, or buildings blocking off the view, or a busy or otherwise unattractive scenery ruining the shot.
Anyway, we were in Lazise at the Eastern coast of the Lago di Garda and experienced this beautiful sunset from the patio of our appartment. I like the restricted color set and the subtle shades of the lake. I know, it’s very close to kitsch but still on the positive side. And yes, I would love to be there. Right now.

Constructive talks with Midlands Co-op following closure announcement
Date: 23 January 2013
Usdaw has held 'constructive' talks with the Midlands Co-operative Society following Monday's (January 21) announcement of the Co-op's proposal to close its Fashion & Home business.
Usdaw's Divisional Officer
Gavin Dadley met with senior HR management from the Society
yesterday at the company's head office and described the
discussions as 'very constructive'.
"The Society has reassured
us it is doing everything possible to minimise the number of
potential job losses," said Gavin. "The Society also reassured
Usdaw that it would do all it could to find alternative employment
within its other divisions, and in the local area, for staff
affected by the closure programme.
with employees begin next week and Usdaw will seek to ensure all
members are given representation at those meetings.
"Clearly these are uncertain
times for our members but I want to remind them that both Usdaw and
the Midlands Co-op are doing all we can to redeploy as many staff
- Usdaw (the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied
Workers) is the UK's fourth biggest and fastest growing trade union
with over 424,000 members. Membership has increased by more than
17% in the last five years and by nearly a third in the last
decade. Most Usdaw members work in the retail sector, but the union
also has many members in transport, distribution, food
manufacturing, chemicals and other trades.

Providing a preview of what's to come, Mozilla developers are now out with development versions of the next two releases of the open-source Firefox Web browser.
Firefox 25 is now in Mozilla's beta channel and follows Mozilla's release of Firefox 24 last week. On the desktop side of Firefox 25, bug fixes top the list of items that regular users are likely to notice. One of the fixes in Firefox 25 is identified in the release notes with the title "Resetting Firefox no longer clears your browsing session."
"Reset Firefox is a feature we recently added to Firefox to allow our users to restore Firefox to a pristine, freshly installed state," Johnathan Nightingale, Mozilla's vice president of Firefox Engineering, told eWEEK.
Nightingale added that in order to make that reset as painless as possible, Firefox preserves the user's bookmarks and other aspects of the Firefox browsing profile.
"This new feature adds the ability to preserve your open tabs and windows as well, so that you don't need to reopen them after resetting," Nightingale explained.
Going out even further into the development cycle, Firefox 26 is currently in the Mozilla Aurora channel, which is essentially an alpha development release.
In the Firefox 26 release notes, one of the new items is titled, "All plug-ins in Firefox, with the exception of Flash plug-ins, are defaulted to 'click to play'." That new feature is something Mozilla has been talking about for at least a year.
"Plug-ins are a shrinking piece of the Web, and that's a good thing; they can cause significant stability and performance issues and are a consistent security risk," Nightingale said. "That's why future versions of Firefox will treat all plug-ins as disabled until our users explicitly activate them with click-to-play."
How do plug-ins work? Currently, when a user visits a page where the plug-in is required, it is activated by the content on the page, typically without the need for user interaction. Plug-ins can include media players like Flash and QuickTime as well as media-enabling technologies like Java. The continuing growth of HTML5 as the way to deliver media is causing a decline in the use and need for media plug-ins.
In moving to a full "click to play" approach for Firefox, the execution details still matter, Nightingale said.
"In the months since we first discussed our intent to do this, our designers and user researchers have been hard at work ensuring that this improved performance and security doesn't harm Firefox's ease of use," Nightingale said.
Firefox 25 is currently scheduled to be released the week of Oct. 29, while Firefox 26 will move into beta that same week with general availability likely before the end of the year.

There is nothing that I’m able to say. That’s what’s sad.
Left unheard. Stay unsaid.
What’s the point?
Walking aimlessly down Broadway,
down past church and funeral pyre,
by Jeff Glovsky
My train each day is a filthy ride.
Harried passengers, captively feigning aplomb, have no choice… The alternative is meltdown.
In the tunnel, wind rumbles, belches, swirls. At the end, finally, light.
My train arrives.
A clock face smiles genially as it marches into sunset.
Racing backwards down the slope of Time, the face stops glowing, cracks appear; it winds itself less regularly… Forgets to sound reminders now and then… Alarming.
Increasingly, out of sync.
Photo(s) by JGlo
People watching …
(e)motion poetry … Wherever you are, you are being seen … Your movements, actions, are recorded … Chased and captured, space and time … You move freely …
All over the city, bodies litter the streets…
Concurrent with Manhattan’s competitive hotel explosion, has been a disturbing rise in the displaced and the truly unhomed. There are fakers and young people out there too, who are wholly equipped – yet just sitting there, begging …
Lo-fi night images
all taken with a Blackberry 9900 Bold. Flash, No Flash …
AVglov Images – EUROPA 1
Non-political travel images celebrating fading “quaintness” and timeless architecture … evoking both quintessential “Europe” and the everyday continent. My own
“New York” as I see it: reality, memory, mind’s eye,
Reflections and Windows Soul …
They lean in … They’re too close to each other. Yet not close enough. There’s something off.
In pretty red, dressed like a Valentine’s Day, she’s all smiles, commanding attention and swaying … He leans in and keens, like a friendship example, and jokes that he’s handsome while screaming a little …
The volume of the music increases, in tune with his voice and the swaying of her body in the Valentine’s dress. And the wine flows, red, white and nobody’s blue.
From the snowstorm steps an embarrassed Yeti; getting warm as he stamps off his feet, and beard … underneath which he’s red-faced, alone on this day.
No one cares, though! Least of all, all of the others: the Valentine’s dress and the keening example, and me, alone also, enjoying this day …
The shouts continue.
“Extra caramel macchiato!”. “Grande, triple latte chai!”. “A ‘skinny’ decaf Frap, light ice!”.
“…three ‘pumps’, with extra ‘room’ please?”
And nobody’s embarrassed!
All these selfish inhalations, spoiled preferences, demands. How do they purge themselves? Expel such waste?
The stupid, herd-like slobs! All waiting docilely in line for “coffee”…filling up the popcorn store (…a ‘popcorn store’!), the yogurt shops…
Thank God I date alone.
excerpts from ...
Now my social circle, such as it is, resembles a bit a Fellini ensemble: Comprised almost entirely of souls I’ve just met up with, there’s this homeless guy I feed sometimes … El Flaco John and Todd Sin Pelo, two sad sacks I revel in at “work”, this outdoor theater …
There’s bright Crystal, lovely! Eighteen! Topless!! Now, two German stewardesses … from night streets, separate outings – Why, on two diverse young evening jaunts!
Karola met and knot-tied with her Corsican Mann down in Mexico City. She sprekz well, das Spanish … The night we went crazed, after sucking down Fosters (she loves Australian beer, she said, and only sampled French parfum), I caught her peeping my way through a pair of Woodsy lenses.
Drunk when I met her, and heavy with child.
“Hi, I’m Delphine!” Delphine broadcasts. “You are?”
“Sit down, Delphine. Want a beer?”
“I’m Greek!” Delphine shouts, and she plops with a thud on a cat-scratched futon. “My love, I am hungry! Have you any cream cheese?”
There’s a woman on the Upper West Side, loves to dream …
Why, each night, catch her traipsing her mangy hound here, the two of them dressed to the nines, fit to kill!
… And Zorro flicks hair from a flattish sombrero: a dyed blonde, unruly and posthumous mane. Her little pooch cries out as well … the two of them begging, imploring attention.
I yell this to the homeless guy leaping out of the shadows at 78th Street … An empty wooden picture frame is swinging round his neck.
In true form, Ernest cracks with glee. “I dint do it! No,” shouts he.
No, “I was FRAMED!” we both yell.
an excerpt from ...
I’m watching Jungle Cali as she screams in with her vipers. Topless dancers from across the street …
She’s got this kind of jazz patois … Like, everything is straight, you dig? Like everything is solid, Jack! Like Wynton put some major foot up, David Sanborn far from sad.
I watch her now though, every night. She’ll scream in with her vipers when their shifts change, five a.m. … I watch them: Loud, she’ll scream in, claim their throne, commence to holding court, these vipers, caution to the wind!
She’ll flirt there, shout, caress meat thighs and wink at cabbies, me and all who, damaged, limp across her landscape … Jungle Cali laughs, we’ll cry, and die another year each night.

Wolf, howling nighttime, prowled the Upper West, growling and swearing to himself …
He was generally harmless, howling “Wolf”, and kept to the demons within his head … The last time I saw Wolf, he had aged – albeit gracefully, with a little salt and pepper, George Clooney thing going on (short on the sides) … His posture improved … Occasionally, he’d ask me “How’s the Mrs.?” as he howled.
Then I ducked, as he swung a tree branch at me on Christmas Eve in 2010.
Since then, at the holidays, I think of Wolf …

One of the great themes of the book of Leviticus is Holiness. What does this mean and how does it affect people today?
Pastor Richard Powell starts a brand new series on Leviticus today and kicks off with helping us understand why Christians do not obey everything written in the book of Leviticus.
Richard Powell discusses how we are to manage money and be willing to give that which ultimately belongs to God.
Pastor John Gillespie asks; Is your life only about acquiring more stuff?

Society today rests on a fundament of principles. World views. Things which we believe to be absolutely true and eternally valid. One of those – in some ways by far the most important of them – is the idea of democracy.
Democracy (literally: rule by the people) is the glue which links all of the various elements of our society together. It is made possible by the essential idea that all people are born equal and that the opinion – the vote – of any one of us is worth the same as that of any other. From this springs the concept of free speech – and indeed the belief that all people should be free and that slavery, in any form, is an abomination against nature. And this again gives nourishment and power to a rich diversity of thoughts, including the emancipation of women, social welfare, and even the Internet.
But democracy isn’t by any means the “natural state of things” for a human society. It is, in fact, an extremely rare occurrence, which has only ever existed in its present shape for a mere one hundred years or so. Let that thought rest for a moment: a single century of universal democracy out of more than five thousand years of recorded history…
To say that democracy is rare is an understatement. It is not rare. It is unique.
Why is that?
It is unique because the circumstances where it can be established are very specific and uncommon. And, once it has been created, it is fragile and needs constant care and attention – lest it dies.
The problem lies in the radical nature of democracy. It is government by the people, not by the elite. So why should the current elite allow that to happen at all? Under what circumstances would the ruling class of any country voluntarily step down and let itself be reft of power, pushed aside and replaced?
It can only be as a last resort. To be considered only in the direst and most threatening of circumstances. Something like, say, when the common people of a neighbouring country imprisons their entire aristocracy – men, women, and children – and begins feeding them to the guillotine…
Yes, that would probably do it…
It was neither by chance nor coincidence that the idea of democracy spread rapidly throughout virtually all of Europe in the years following the French Revolution. It was, rather literally, an idea born in blood. The sudden gush of warm blood from the severed heads of 40.000 French aristocrats.
The news of that calamity, brutally unexpected and totally without precedence, could neither be repressed nor ignored. It forced the ruling classes of Europe to consider extreme measures to safeguard their own safety. For France was not, by any means, the only place where revolutionary ideas were finding fertile soil.
They tried to quench the revolution in its own blood. And failed, miserably. That left just one option.
If you can’t beat them, join them…
The centuries to follow were rife with war and tension, blood ran in long rivers, and the smoke from gunpowder and cannon clouded the hills and forests of Europe.
But the French Revolution did not repeat.
Democracy, tightly controlled and screened though it was, began to bloom.

Tokyo has million things to do. You really need months to explore everything Tokyo has to offer. It’s a city where everyone will find something they love.
During my first trip I explored the “basic” things to do in Tokyo, but when I returned for the second time I started to wander and look for Tokyo off the path. Here are my not too obvious secret things to do in Tokyo.
1. Visit Meguro Parasitological Museum
Come face-to-face with the world’s longest tapeworm in this strange Meguro-based museum devoted to parasites. With over 45,000 specimens in its collection, you’re sure to find something that disgusts you. Plus, you’ll learn about all the ways animals can transfer parasites to you throughout your life. Hurray!
An unlucky soul got the record-breaking 29-ft tapeworm after eating sushi, so you might want to hold off on eating before entering. Luckily, entry is free.
2. Enjoy Ghibli Museum
Whether you’ve only heard of My Neighbor Totoro or you start drunken debates with randoms about which Miyazaki film is the best, the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka is worth a visit. It’s designed in the style of the films Miyazaki helped create, complete with many of his famous characters.
Watch short films exclusive to the museum, learn about the history of the studio and animation, and pay homage to this creative animator/director/all-around Manga god.
Tickets are not sold at the museum, and purchasing them can be confusing. Get them online at local JTB offices 3 months in advance, or in Japan at Lawson convenience stores starting the 10th of the previous month. Try for weekdays as weekends and holidays sell out. Otherwise, book with Viator.
3. Rent a Friend
No, not that kind of “friend”.
There’s nothing sexual about this strange service used to help people cope with loneliness, fake engagements, or talk about their day. As a tourist, it can help you feel more at ease in a city known for overwhelming visitors and locals alike. You’ll never walk alone in Japan.
Expect to pay at least $115 for two hours.
4. Step Into a Different World at Anata No Warehouse
If you’re looking to play video games and feel like you’re in one at the same time, check out Anata no Warehouse in Kawasaki.
Designed as a cyberpunk dystopian version of Hong Kong’s walled Kowloon city, this giant building offers floors of arcade-style, casino, and barroom gaming. From the grimy walls to the old ads and signs, the arcade’s designers took painstaking measures to recreate the city. They even shipped in trash from Hong Kong that’s a dedication to your craft.
You can still walkthrough for free if you’re not much of a gamer. Otherwise, prices vary for individual games, but you might want to try some as they’re pretty strange.
5. Visit Sanrio Puroland
Disney has their classic It’s a Small World ride. The indoor theme park opened by the kawaii-focused Sanrio Company in Tama New Town might’ve outdone them. Where else can you take a boat ride led by the cuddly Cinnamoroll to a party hosted by the Hello Kitty herself?
Tickets start at $22USD for kids and $30USD for adults for weekday passes, which are cheaper than weekends. Your best bet would be booking with Viator, as it’s actually cheaper that way.
6. Pet some Furry Friends at a Cat Cafe
These are popping up all over the world, but you’ll find the cat cafes scattered throughout Tokyo. If you’ve never heard of them, it’s exactly what it sounds like. Pay a time-based cover charge, drink beverages, and pet cats. Lots of them.
Cat Cafe Calico is popular in Shinjuku, while Neko JaLaLa in Akihabara boasts more exotic breeds. Entry runs ~$9/hr on weekdays and more on weekends.
7. Visit the Cat Street
There are actually two Cat Streets in Tokyo. Shibuya Cat Street near Shibuya Crossing fits right in with the nearby Harajuku scene. Teens and hipsters sporting funky colored outfits, frills, and kawaii fashion.
But over in Yanaka, Yanaka Ginza is like Main Street in Cat Town. Cat figures, cat faces, cat jewelry. Real cats, fake cats, cat waffles, cat beer. Cat waffles with cat beer. Grab some cheap street food and take in Cat Town in all its furry glory. There are barely any tourists around.
8. Drive Mario Karts
Put on your favorite Mario Kart character costume and race through the streets of Tokyo with other drivers at speeds up to 60 km (37 mph) with MariCar Akihabara. With multiple tracks to choose from (sorry, no Rainbow Road), MariCar says,‘Once is never enough!’ The only things missing are the shells and banana peels.
You’ll need an International Driving Permit, or a SOFA License for US Forces to use the karts.
Prices are $81 and up depending on course length, and you can work out a discount if you write up a thorough review on your blog or social media profile.
8. Feast like an apocalypse king at Mr Kanso
It’s the end of the world. Imagine yourself in your own wasteland bunker as you get drunk and gorge yourself on over 350 delicious canned foods from around the globe. You can find Mr. Kanso in Shinjuku. Cans range from around $1.80 to as much as $18 USD, and they even do pairings. Walrus curry and Jack, anyone?
9. Strike a pose at Purikura no Mecca
For diehard fans of the selfy, Purikura no Mecca in Shibuya offers you the chance to take as many as you want. Hell, why use only one camera?
Bounce from photobooth to photobooth armed with an endless array of editing tools to indulge your vanity. Long lashes and doe eyes for ultimate kawaii? Yep. Anime edit to make you look like a character straight from your favorite comic series? You know it.
This isn’t just for women and children. But apparently the manga girls were too much for some male guests, so men-only groups or guys looking for a solo-shoot are not allowed. Prices start at around $3.50.
10. Visit Aokigahara Forest
Aokigahara, also known as the Sea of Trees, is a forest on the northwestern flank of Japan’s Mount Fuji thriving on 30 square kilometers of hardened lava laid down by the last major eruption of Mount Fuji.
The forest offers gorgeous views of Mount Fuji, distinctive lava plateau, 300-year-old trees, and the enchanting Narusawa Ice Cave.
While the forest is a beautiful place to visit, but it’s also a spooky place, as it’s the world’s second most popular place to take one’s life (after Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco). Some believe the ghosts – yurei, of those abandoned and the mournful spirits of the suicidal linger in the woods.
Compasses, cellphones, GPS systems also don’t work in the forest due to the magnetic iron, so stay on the path when you visit.
A trip to Tokyo is an assault on the senses. From temples steeped in ancient history to technological advancements and absurdities, Japan’s capital pulses and thrives like a neon-lit neural network.

April 30, 2021
You don’t have to be following the news too closely to know that here in Ontario, where I live, the pandemic’s third wave—or more properly, the new wave of “variants of concern”—is wreaking massive havoc.
While my family, friends and I are safe and healthy, so many others are not. Every day we read the gloomy reports: more cases, more deaths, more hospitals at breaking point, more and more medical and other essential workers straining under the physical and mental stress of it all.

A friend of mine has been known to say that she would sooner kill a human being than an innocent animal. It is sometimes hard to tell if the gleam in her vegan eyes is from humor or conviction but, having witnessed her cries for blood while watching hockey and her disgust at the hunting included in Red Dead Redemption, I have no desire to find out.
Murder is the canvas of my art.
When PETA released its ridiculous statement earlier this week criticizing Ubisoft’s possible inclusion of whaling in the forthcoming Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, I immediately thought of my friend. Like her, PETA has no problem with the simulated murderous piracy so long as we save the (digital) whales.
I don’t care about the fate of any digital creature. So long as I have means and cause, I will gladly slaughter everything from cute puppies to unicorns to the patriotic soldier of my enemy’s armies, and I will usually do it without a second thought. In many games, murder is the canvas of my art. It’s the point.
While I tend to describe my experiences with games like Bulletstorm and Loaded (remember that one?) as gleeful, sometimes there are exceptions. In the midst of my hunting in Far Cry 3, I shot several turtles, not yet knowing that their shells held no practical value in the game’s crafting system. Similarly, I was disgusted by my forced participation in Kratos’ lengthy butchering of the god Hermes in God of War III.
The turtles bothered me because their deaths were entirely without purpose. The murder of Hermes bothered me because his death served Kratos’ purposes and not my own – I was just the weapon.
Games, from ancient board games to modern videogames and everything in between, provide a safe space for the application of power and prowess by providing conceptual versions of more dangerous competitive activities. Dice and marbles simulate personal duels. The earliest board games that we have complete rules for – the Mesopotamian Royal Game of Ur (2400 BC) and the Egyptian Senet (3500 BC) – are racing games. Chess and Go are war games – the former explicitly, the latter a more subtle exercise in strategic thinking.
As games have become more complex and modern, their trappings have become less implicit. Realistic portrayals of violence in games are a result of this, but nothing more – blood and gibs and explosions are the side effects, a grisly stage dressing. The underlying cause remains the same mechanical abstraction – a struggle between two players, or a player and a narrative, or a player and the game designer, all within a system of rules and logic.
As Rowan Kaiser points out so eloquently, the defining characteristics of unacceptable portrayals of violence are incredibly hard to pin down when one attempts a comparative survey. He limits his examples only to videogames, but other mediums are just as elusive. Where in the grid do we plot the coordinates for the pile of bodies at the end of Hamlet as compared to the tawdry horror of the Hostel series? In real life, how do we draw comparisons between the intense exertion of chopping wood, or the butchering of a cow? Or a drone strike? Or an actual murder?
Each of these things represents a struggle for power between two opposing sides. Hamlet, the victim, seeks to regain the power stolen from his murdered father while the horror of the Hostel movies springs from having personal agency removed. In the crucible of reality, a crime is measured not by its inherent violence, but by the intent. Not all murder is violent, after all, but as one thinking creature exerting a final and irrevocable power over another, it is always abhorrent.
To compare a real killing – a product of a terrible will – to a videogame on the basis of its violence is like comparing it to the man cutting down a tree. It’s foolish. No one mourns for the tree.
Some time ago, my friend was volunteering at her local animal shelter. When she was on her way outside to feed the dogs in the pen, another dog, a pit bull, was awaiting the attention of the veterinary tech. It was not properly restrained and it attacked my friend. My friend’s love for dogs is deep, but none of it could calm the power of this one’s muscles and its anger and its fear.
It slashed her face, leaving a scar, and locked its jaw around her forearm, leaving a wound that took months to heal and lingering nerve damage. The dog was destroyed soon after.
My friend doesn’t mourn for it.

Transforming growth factor a (TGFα), a polypeptide growth-stimulating factor, has been implicated to play a role in the progression of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer. It has been suggested that TGFα expression in tumors or TGFα in the biological fluids of cancer patients may have tumor marker value. The serum levels of TGFα in GI cancer patients have not been reported. In this study, the serum TGFα levels of 100 GI cancer patients, as well as 74 healthy individuals, were determined by a TGFα-specific RIA kit. All of the cancer patient sera and 67% of the normal sera had detectable levels of TGFα. The TGFα concentrations in Gl cancer patients ranged from 119 to 760 pg/ml, with a mean value of 269 ±102 pg/ml. Fifty normal individuals had detectable levels of TGFα, and their levels ranged from 120 to 207 pg/ml, with a mean value of 147 ± 18 pg/ml. Differences in serum TGFα concentration between cancer patients and healthy individuals were found to be statistically significant, as evaluated by Mann-Whitney and Student's t tests. Serum TGFα levels were found to be significantly elevated in all disease stages of gastric, pancreas, colon, and rectal cancers, and only in the late stages of esophageal cancer. Serum carcinoembryonic antigen levels were significantly elevated only in the late stages of these diseases. The potential of serum TGFα as a tumor marker for GI malignancy, therefore, warrants further investigation.

WATCH: Star Lineup for PSA On Sandy Relief in NY
Posted By Joseph Spector On December 10, 2012 @ 12:39 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
Here’s a public service announcement released last month to promote ReliefNY.org—the state’s fundraising effort for Superstorm Sandy victims.
It has a star-studded lineup: Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Michael J. Fox, Steve Buscemi, Edie Falco, Amare Stoudemire and Sandra Lee—Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s girlfriend. (h/t to Capitol Tonight )
The Wall Street Journal reported today that the Empire State Relief Fund, announced Nov. 9 in the wake of the Oct. 29 storm, has raised $17 million. But Cuomo is using a state agency to oversee the money, and he has a board of his political fundraisers overseeing it, the article said.

“You have to understand that no one puts their children on a boat unless the water is safer than the land”. These words were spoken by none other than Warsan Shire, a gifted poet and writer whose works mainly touch on the issues of refugees, immigration and war.
Literally, the meaning is quite clear. No one would expose their children to the dangers of the sea unless it is much safer than the land. I usually have great imagination and so as I read this I imagined children on a boat in a sea with strong tides and waves. I am not a parent but this is something I certainly wouldn’t do unless it is really the only way out. We are left to imagine how dangerous the land must be for a parent to resort to this risky and seemingly desperate measure.
These words are found in Warsan`s poem, ‘Home’, which is sort of a lament of an asylum seeker on why she and her people had to escape from their home country. In the immediate context, the poet`s intention is to bring to attention that asylum seekers don’t choose to be in the situation they are in. By saying these words, she wants us to understand that it is not the wish of refugees all over the world to leave their home in the first place but they were forced to due to the dangerous and life-threatening circumstances. We are made to understand that the narrator, who is a refugee longs to go back home but that is impossible as danger lurks there. Her home, like the mouth of a shark, will destroy and devour her. She narrates to us the suffering and tortures that victims of war go through such as having to feed on newspapers due to starvation and being harassed. Had their homes been safe, they would not be living in refugee camps with little or no access to basic needs, having to survive on nothing but donations and be at the mercy of well-wishers, charity organizations and foreign governments. Yet they would rather endure all these as what awaits them back at home is much worse. It is better to be alive and living in lack than wait to be hacked to death. It is far much better to keep your pride aside and beg for food from your neighbor for your children than to watch them starve to death at home. In these camps, there is little or no education available, health and sanitary conditions are pathetic.
When I first came across these words, I didn’t know they belonged to a poem about the plight of asylum seekers but I could relate with them. Think of the land as your comfort zone or something you love and the water as opposite. The truth is many people are in situations they would rather not be in if they had other options. They are in the water only because the land is not an alternative anymore. As human beings we make decisions that are in our best interests as well as of those we love when caught in such tough and daring situations and when our ‘lands’ are burning and getting destroyed, we will run to our ‘safer waters’. Chances are you have been in such situations before, where you had to choose between the raging and risky sea and the much more dangerous warring land. We have all been there before.
News about Africans attempting to get into Europe through the Mediterranean Sea in search for greener pastures has become a norm. We hear about young girls who ran away from their homes to escape early and forced marriages and young men who commit petty crimes because they prefer to live in prisons where the get food and shelter. But have you ever asked yourself what drives people to make such decisions? Many would not be doing the things they are doing if things were better for them.
I am not saying all actions should be supported. For example, I would not advocate for taking away one`s own precious life, no matter the situation. It is easy for us to look down on, blame, judge, discriminate or even get angry and hostile to people who we feel are responsible for their situations. This shouldn’t be the case. Let us open our arms wide, accept, be supportive of people and help where we can. Harper Lee said that you never really understand a person until you consider things from his or her point of view. How right she was.

performance-installation / 2015 / duration: variable / audio: english
After a research on ASMR phenomenon (Autonomous sensory meridian response) Felix Dorer and I developed this installation/performance. Behind a wall a performer will whisper through a perforated surface a story. The story is a new genesis; where the listener is the creator of the whole world, s/he just forgot who s/he was.
''Do you remember? In the beginning you were pure, clean and perfect.
You were all.
Now you are one of many who are part off all.
Your hopes, fears and perceptions still change and shape the entities around you.
Still, you can feel the other parts of you and love them or miss them.
Your fears and hopes and perceptions still change and shape the entities.
With every thought, you make something new.
Something that might breath and feel the world with the skin you drew around it, the skin, that separates it from being whole.
Remember when you were sad, and you didn't know why?
Maybe you miss your home.
Maybe you miss being whole.''

Did you hear about the new Xbox?
So, I was talking to this kid that works at gamestop today and tells me that the new Xbox may NOT be able to play USED games. Meaning if you go to gamestop and buy a used copy of Assassin's Creed or any other USED games it will not work in the new system. He also said that is must have a 24/7 connection to the internet, so if you loose your internet, you still won't be able to play ANY games on it. He said there will be a huge announcement in a few weeks. Is he crazy or misinformed?

Member of the Month: Catherine Casalino
Catherine Casalino is a prolific book designer who co-chaired this past year’s TDC Communication Design Competition with husband Chris Sergio, an Art Director at Penguin Random House and Treasurer on the TDC board. The pair’s attention to quality and detail was crucial in the campaign, judging, and Annual design — a perfect project for a pair of book designers.
Portrait: Catherine Casalino.
Let’s tell the studio audience about your career trajectory — I always find fascinating those fortuitous connections that help a young designer grow into their own.
I’ve been working in book design in one capacity or another since 2003. I worked in-house at Simon & Schuster, Random House, and Hachette as an Art Director and Designer, and I started my career at Rodrigo Corral Design. Because I worked at an independent design studio and freelanced on the side throughout my career, running my own company was always in the back of my mind.
In 2016, I (finally) opened my own studio, Casalino Design Inc, and I couldn’t be happier. While most of my clients are publishing houses, running my own company has allowed me to take on some great new clients outside of traditional publishing. Over the last two years, I art directed and designed bespoke books for IBM and A+E Networks, designed a collectable limited edition of Stephen King’s Misery, and created the look for an indie magazine called Ravenous.
I didn’t set out to work in design. I was an English major and a history minor in college at William & Mary, and was also heavily into photography. I was the photo editor for my college newspaper and slowly transitioned the paper from film to digital while I was there— we had one Nikon digital SLR that my team shared! My only real “design” experience was playing around with PageMaker in High School.
Casalino Design for A+E Networks.
I came to New York after college to take NYU’s Summer Publishing Program hoping to get into magazines. I was talking with magazines like Nylon and Maxim about editorial assistant jobs when two book cover art directors came in to speak to our NYU class. Book design was a job I hadn’t realized existed, but fit perfectly with my interest in books and visuals. I reached out to one of the ADs, Rodrigo Corral, and he ended up hiring me as an intern because I knew Photoshop—and because his former intern had left the week before!
Rodrigo was only a year or two into running his own studio and was a rising star in the book design world, so I learned a lot about both design and business in the three years I worked there.
Pivoting from writing to design, when I first got to New York, made me realize that it’s important to follow your interests, even if they lead you off the path you’re already on. My trajectory makes a lot of sense looking back, because I had always been in love with both words and visuals, but I never would have discovered that if I hadn’t let go of the idea of what I was supposed to be doing.
It was a big risk to set aside what I had been doing to pursue design, but I think that made me work harder. I felt like I needed to catch up to those that had the benefit of having gone to design school. Making an unexpected turn like that, so early in my working life, also gave me a lot of confidence. It made me realize that if you put in the time and effort, it’s always possible to make a change and learn something new.

What are some things you do when assessing the layout of a book cover that could use type as image?
I love using type as image on covers. Most of the time with covers, either image or type comes to the forefront, so when you can meld image and title together seamlessly it’s really satisfying.
With all of my cover designs I start by asking myself what is the theme and mood of the book (my English major is very helpful here!) and what visuals are in the text that might be useful. For example, the design I did for Stephen King’s Misery started with knowing that I wanted to use a typewriter in some way because, of all the amazing visual elements in the book from the axe to the bed to matches, the typewriter best fit all the themes of Misery. It’s an object that symbolizes writing, which is Paul’s vocation, but also the reason Annie becomes obsessed with him. It serves so many purposes in the book (anchor, weapon, creative escape) and is omnipresent and integral to the story in a way that some of the other visuals are not. And luckily, it’s a visual that has a wealth of type built in. There are keys, the impressions they make, the label on the machine, and the hammers. I played with all of those elements, but in the end, the hammers felt most menacing and weaponlike. I created the final design by photographing the hammers with a macro lens to make them feel huge and horrifying.
Art direction and design for Stephen King’s Misery.
Sometimes a type as image solution is obvious when you have something in the text that naturally has type, like a typewriter or a movie theater marquee or fast food wrappers with a logo on it, and other times you have to stretch it a little. The cover I did for Procession of the Dead took the idea of creepy shadow puppets directly from the book, but instead of having a shadow puppet with the title over it, I made the title become the shadow puppets. Sometimes you have to get a little playful with your type to get a design to a unique place.

You and I were just talking about our kids and art the other evening at Judges’ Night (Casalino’s son has his own flat file!) and it made me think about early hobbies that sometimes weave into our adult lives. Are there things you did as a kid that influence your creative habits now?
I was definitely creative as a kid— everything from drawing to making really intricate friendship bracelets to building Lego empires. When you’re a kid there are no boundaries to creativity, which is amazing. No one’s saying “I’m a book designer” or “I’m a photographer.” One minute you’re designing and building a fort and the next you’re producing, styling, and starring in a play complete with puppets, all the neighborhood kids, and the family dog. I think harnessing that creative openness and collaborative spirit is something I’m always trying to bring into my current work, and it’s particularly helpful when working on book design. Every book is really unique and each project has a different set of collaborators and hopes for the design. One day I’m on set art directing a photoshoot, the next I’m working with typography, and the next I’m simply picking up a pencil and drawing. You have to be receptive to whatever that particular book calls for.

I was also fortunate to be one of the first generations that was able to use technology in our play. I think now there’s a little self-consciousness and fear that comes when we’re confronted with new technology, but growing up in the 80s and 90s it was new to everyone and figuring it out became part of the fun. My sister, my best friend, and I were always goofing around with a camcorder or making newsletters on our early IBM computer. I also clearly remember going to my dad’s office one Saturday and seeing a pen plotter for the first time, which blew my mind. I think all of that fed into my enthusiasm for working on the computer in a creative way.
I was also hugely into photography starting in middle school. I learned in the darkroom and then transitioned to digital in the early 2000s. I love working with photographers and existing photography and even shoot things myself from time to time. Photography is the first creative discipline where I really learned composition, craft, and technique, so I’m always coming back to it.
Design for Supercomputer.
How do you feel about being in your discipline right now?
I really love working in book and print design. Designing for web and apps is definitely fun, but print design has a permanence about it that’s really special. I collect Alvin Lustig books from the 40s and 50s and sheet music from the turn of the century, and they’re still as functional and beautiful today as they were when they were produced. I love the idea that a book or poster I create could still be relevant 100 years from now.

Seated at my computer, I had just finished reading “Desiderata” by Max Ehrlman, which a a friend had sent to me, when I noticed on the floor beside my chair a strange little creature. “Hi,” I said, in a questioning tone, and he returned the greeting.
“Don’t you wonder what I am?”
“Well, yes, but I figured you’d introduce yourself.”
“I am a Pixie. and you don’t believe in me.”
“Well, yes, I guess that’s usually so, but I’m not understanding what I’m seeing right now.”
“How can I make you believe what you see?”
“Ummm…” I looked closer at him. He was the spitting image of the pixies in fairy tales, right down to the upturned toes of his shoes and the the little peaked hat. And small! A miniature person. “What fairy tale did you spring from?”
He gave a little smile. “Yours.” He held out his spindly little hand and said, “Touch me.” I did so, and found him warm.
“To what do I owe this surprising visit?”
He paused and fixed me with a penetrating stare. “You. I think if you can believe in me, then you can start believing in yourself again.” With that the little feller faded into thin air, leaving me staring into my computer screen, surrounded by the aroma of cinnamon sugar. Just maybe my heart hasn’t turned to stone.
I read “Desiderata” again, and felt a stirring in my heart. I’m back alive.

The station was opened on 20 July 1874 and closed to freight on 10 June 1963 and completely on 7 March 1966. There were two platforms on the double track main line, the main station buildings being on the southern down platform. There was at one time a 2'6" gauge industrial railway linking the goods yard with Oakhill Brewery, two and a half miles away. This line closed in 1921.
Can You Help Us? Please tell us about the status of this station.
The station will be rebuilt when the line to Bath reopens. The old Oakhill Brewery line could also be restored as a narrow gauge passenger feeder route eventually.

Spring is the time when everything is rushed. Everyone has a lot of things going on at once and sometimes, there simply is no time each morning to set down and set your hair. I have a few girl friends who constantly complain about how little time they have in the morning to get ready before they needed to go to work. I sometimes feel that way too which was why I was looking around for hairstyles that looks good and requires very little time to do.
I am happy to let you know that I have found something that I think might work. This tutorial is for an updo style for people with long hair. It looks stylish and elegant and only requires a few minutes of your time each morning to do. The result looks like you spent a lot of time on it but that is not the case. It think even your friends would be surprised by this style. If you would like to learn more about this style, follow the steps below:
Things you will need:
Step 1: Begin by applying hairspray to your hair in order to make it easier for you to style and hold the hair in place.
Step 2: Take a section of the hair from the bangs and start twisting it in one direction.
Step 3: Add a small section of hair as you move down your hair
Step 4: Repeat step 3 until you have worked your hair all the way around. You should have finished on the opposite side of where you began.
Step 5: Take the remaining hair and start twisting it tightly and tie the end with a hair tie. Place this section just behind the front section
Step 6: Secure the ends with bobby pins
Step 7: Finish off the look with some hairspray and tidy the hair with a comb.
Hope that was easy to follow. I have been wearing this style to work for a few days now and I simply love it! Its very good looking and I couldn't believe that it took me only 2 minutes to do. If you feel that this hairstyle is for you, check out the step by step tutorial above. The full video tutorial for this hairstyle can be found below:

I am not going to sit here and bad mouth my ex husbands but what I will do is give my experiences on how it feels to have 2 divorces behind me by 30.
I am 32 now and remarried to the most amazing man I have ever met. He is wonderful to me and my daughter, shows the most compassion I have ever seen in a human being. But no matter how much I wanted to marry him, I was scared. There were so many what if’s.
What if it ends like my other marriages?
What if he ends up hating me and leaves me?
What if he falls out of love with me after a year like the others?
Truth is my ex husbands never fell out of love with me. I left. I left because I was not happy and life is too short to be unhappy for years. Yes, I tried to fix it…in many ways. But nothing worked and I had to pack my bags for my daughter and for me. I couldn’t have her growing up in a household that didn’t show love for what it could be or what it really is.
There has been many others that have shamed me for having two divorces under my belt at 30, which is judgmental because they didn’t know my past or what I went through. I never had a good male influence in my life growing up, which means I never had a man show me what real love could be.
When one does not have this influence, they base their idea of a partner and love on what they have learned in their past. Thinking this is the best it could be. But as a lover of love, I strived for something different. Believing there was something different out there. And I was right. There are partners out there that will treat you with more love than you can ever imagine.
The only good reaction I have ever gotten was from a past coworker. When I told him I had been divorced twice he said, ” Good for you! You do not stay if you are not treated right. I respect that.” And this was coming from a man, when men usually judge me for leaving other men. Man code they said. Judging me for leaving their brothers.
I am bisexual and have been in relationships with women and I had no different of an experience. So this is not a shit on men post, this is a post about a woman who was confused on what she needed and deserved.
I hope this post puts others at ease that have gone through exactly or near what I have been through. I have been wanting to write this for a while but wasn’t sure what to say. This post wasn’t planned and I am just writing what is in my mind and heart so I hope that it does not come off as a jumbled mess.
Thank you for reading,

This well-known Blondie cover is from The Shadows String Of Hits Album from 1979' an album that is largely of cover versions. String Of Hits was a very successful album as it was NO 1 for 6 weeks. It was also the last for The Shadows on the EMI Label before they moved to Polydor in 1980, which means they left EMI on top in a business where they have remained ever since, since their early days. String Of Hits was re-issued in the 90s on Compact Disc. It is a very strong album but one that gets kinda forgotten, which is a shame as it was so successful for them at the time. No wonder it was No 1 for 6 weeks as the musicianship was very high and led the way for further cover albums for The Shadows in the 90's. Enjoy!

Throughout college football and the draft season players are often compared to others in, or that have been in the NFL. There are many times where I feel like people don’t understand comparison. When I try to relate players, I am looking at their size, skillset, stature, and playing style. If someone is compared to Leveon Bell, that doesn’t mean he is or will be the best running back in the league. There are too many variables that wont allow players to have the same production even if they are different. Randy Moss could have gone to a team with subpar quarterback play, and coaching that didn’t fit him, resulting in him never reaching the achievements that he did. Here are some of my comparisons. If your opinions differ feel than free to share, my opinion will still be the same. Thanks and enjoy.
Drew Brees – Case Keenum
Neither is physically intimidating in stature or has the big powerful arm that most others have. Keenum only showed one year of consistency compared to Drew’s almost two decades of work. Both have the ability to rock you to sleep with short to intermediate routes and sneak a deep ball in once you let your guard down. They also keep mistakes to a minimum, and can drive the field in the last minute to win the game. (Vikings game still hurts)
Mark Ingram – Emmitt Smith
Ingram and Smith both have a similar low to the ground running style with good build that isn’t too big or too small. They Are considered every down type backs. Neither will wow you with breakaway speed, but their balance of agility to make people miss, and power to drive through tacklers makes them a problem to defend. Neither had Barry Sanders type running excitement, but they churned out hard earned yards regardless.
Alvin Kamara – Marshall Faulk
This is the comparison Sean Payton had made and I completely agreed with. When Payton said that, I knew he was going to be a problem. Their ability to run inside, off tackle, outside with great vision, and catch passes with ease allows them to stay on the field in any situation and create a mismatch. Sean Payton also mentioned knowledge of the game for Kamara, which is the same thing Kurt Warner said of Marshall Faulk
Michael Thomas – Cris Carter
These guys are very much alike in the physicality department. Their routes make cornerbacks run every direction but the correct one some plays. Hand strength is something important when it comes to catching contested balls, and they both exhibited that. Speed isn’t exactly their forte, but their ability to catch balls with people draped on them made it not as important; although they can still beat you deep.
Ted Ginn – Joey Galloway
Speed is the name of the game when it comes down to both of these wide receivers. Galloway showed more consistent hands catching the ball, while Ginn dropped a few as a Panther, but did well securing catches last year as a Saint. Galloway at the end of his career was still one of the faster players in the league. Ted Ginn may still be among the fastest as well even though he is a little bit long in the tooth. These guys still give defenses a reason to keep the safeties backed up.
Ben Watson – Hayden Hurst
Hurst has not made a play in the NFL yet, but shows similar traits to Watson. Both showed above average downfield speed as far as the 40 yard dash goes. Watson ran a 4.53 in his younger days, while Hurst ran a 4.67. Neither takes over a game like a Rob Gronkowski (TBD for Hurst), but they have the ability to work underneath routes and the seams to make teams pick their poison on whether to cover them with a linebacker or defensive back. Nowadays many tight ends are categorized as blocker or receivers. These guys have shown the ability to do both in their playing careers. Hayden Hurst still needs to dos it at the NFL level. Off the field both guys have shown to be mature quality locker room guys.
Small Print: These comparisons are made on playing style, no necessarily production and value, if you don’t agree than go take a deep breath and Like, retweet, and share this blog, & tell your friends about AllSaintsConsidered.com.

MARKETING SERVICES, FINALIST
Bill Demas has a keen eye for identifying new industries and trends and isn’t afraid to take entrepreneurial risks. He joined Turn Inc., his third start-up company, in 2007 and after a year, applied these skills as president and CEO of the Redwood City, Calif.-based company. Demas led Turn’s shift from what was primarily a service-driven advertisement organization to an initial leader in applying demand-side platforms to real-time bidding on advertisements.
Today, the company is well-positioned as a cloud software platform for marketers and advertising agencies, providing scalable software on demand that powers campaigns for some of the world’s largest advertisers. The firm boasts a client portfolio that includes 80 of the Fortune 200 — such as Target, Amazon, AT&T and Progressive Insurance, as well as three of the top five worldwide advertising agency holding companies, OMG, IPG and GroupM.
The SaaS platform evaluates 80 to 90 percent of all global online ad impressions, representing 20 billion impressions daily. Through its algorithms and platform, the company makes 500,000 decisions per second and every impression is analyzed by 2,000 factors to decide if an ad should be placed. Demas continues to think strategically to grow Turn — he’s currently aiming to broaden the company’s platform to new advertising channels such as social media, with IPTV, digital radio and location-based services looming for 2013.
In addition to redeveloping and participating in transforming Turn’s product, Demas has led Turn’s expansion, with plans to grow beyond North America and Europe into both Asia and South America by the end of 2012.

Capaciteit: (0% geboekt)
*This activity will probably take place in the framework of the PIB USA, however, also non PIB members are more than welcome to join this activity.
Improving projects economics and establishing robust state policies led to a surge in offshore wind activity in 2018 in the US. At the end of the year, project developers had a potential offshore wind pipeline of over 25,500 MW. Project developers expect six offshore wind projects totaling 2,101 MW to be operational by 2023. It is clear that companies see enormous business potential in developing offshore wind projects.
The AWEA Offshore WINDPOWER Conference program has cultivated a dedicated and thriving global community of top developers and experts, making it the largest and most succesful gathering of offshore wind energy professionals in the US.
HHWE will organize, together with InnovationQuarter, a booth at the AWEA Exhibition. Next to the AWEA, HHWE also aims to set up a dedicated program around the AWEA according to the wishes of the participants in the week of 21-25 October. Just like our last visit to the IPF in April 2019, we hope to arrange a program with (technical) workshops, seminar and company visits.
Are you interested to join the mission and/or AWEA? Please let us know via Arjen Schutten (email@example.com / +31 6 46 36 38 54).
Please contact us for more information on the events and/or for enrolment: Eline Timmer (06-51249079)
Holland Home of Wind Energy (HHWE) is an independent export association, representing the interests of the Dutch wind energy companies and knowledge institutes across the globe
