I fell a little bit apart last week. Reading about Kate Spade’s death set the groundwork – it was an unwelcome reminder that the disease we share can kill you. I wrote a post about it last Thursday – When your brain is broken – trying to use writing as therapy, as I usually do.
But when I woke up on Friday to a friend’s message that Anthony Bourdain had killed himself as well – I fell apart.
I spent all of Friday in bed, crying and obsessively reading every news snippet I could find about Anthony Bourdain. I downloaded his bestselling memoir Kitchen Confidential and started reading right away, only interrupting myself to check online for more news every few hours. I don’t know what I was looking for: clues for why he did it? An explanation? A reason why? I don’t know.
Because that’s how I see it: they were sick, and their disease killed them.
Suicide is an ugly word and an even uglier reality. It’s associated with shame and blame, and makes family members feel guilty – as if they are not allowed to properly grieve, because the death was self-inflicted. It’s victim-blaming, and I have a problem with that.
People focus on the wrong things: they say he had “no reason”. They demand to know if he was really depressed. Some are angry at him (Val Kilmer’s horrible rant comes to mind), as if he did it to spite them.
I obviously have no idea why Kate and Anthony couldn’t see a reason to live any more. I didn’t know them.
I know how depression feels. I know how it can twist reality into something unrecognizable. It can make you believe horrible things about yourself: that you don’t matter, that you are a burden to everyone around you, that the world would be off better without you.
It messes with your brain, because it’s a brain disease – and how can you make rational decisions with a brain that’s sick?
I also know that depression makes you feel worthless. And asking for help when you feel unworthy of help – well, you don’t do it. You can’t. That feeling of unworthiness paralyzes you. You don’t want to be annoying to others.
Tony often said that he had the best job in the world. But he also, occasionally, mentioned how lonely it was to be alone in a hotel room (which he was roughly 250 days out of the year) – always quickly followed up with a joke.
Being depressed when you have “a reason” – a break-up, loss of a loved one, trouble at work, financial difficulties – is acceptable.
But what about when you seemingly have everything? Money, fame, success, friends, the admiration of millions of people? You have “no reason”. And if you’re aware of your good fortune, as Tony was, you certainly don’t want to appear ungrateful and complain.
So you stay silent. You smile and you work and you stay busy, and you try to outrun the demons and the voice in your head.
But no matter how fast or far you run – they are always there. And when it gets quiet, and it’s dark, and you’re exhausted and alone … sometimes, the voices win.
I’m not suicidal, and I never have been.
But I know the darkness and the loneliness well.
Here is what I also know: Talk about the demons when you’re feeling well.
When you feel strong, you have to tell people. Your brain will function better, you will feel braver, and you will show people that it’s normal to talk about mental illness.
When you tell people about yours, they are much more likely to tell you about theirs.
If you take antidepressants, tell people.
If you are in therapy, tell people.
If you struggle – or used to struggle – with anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or another mental illness – tell people.
Only by talking about it can we remove the shame, fear, and stigma.
Those three words make all the difference. Having people in my life who know to ask them are my best weapon in the fight against my depression. Because I know that I don’t have to fight alone.
So I’m asking you: Are you okay? Do you need someone to talk to? My inbox is always open if you need an open ear, a virtual hug, or the reassurance that you are not alone.
There are SO many of us out there – an army. You don’t know it, but your always-cheerful co-worker? She cried in the bathroom this morning. Your friend who cancelled yoga yesterday? She didn’t have a dentist appointment – she didn’t have the strength to come. Your mother who had regular migraines when you grew up? She didn’t actually have migraines.
Let’s talk about it. Let’s never stop talking about it.

Days after US President Donald Trump's jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over India's role in ensuring peace and stability in Afghanistan, the two leaders agreed to further strengthen bilateral relations in the year ahead.
According to a statement issued by the Prime Minister's Office on Tuesday, Modi and Trump exchanged New Year greetings in a telephonic conversation on Monday evening.
They expressed satisfaction at the progress in India-US strategic partnership in 2018, the statement said.
They appreciated developments such as the launch of the new 2+2 Dialogue mechanism and the first-ever trilateral summit of India, the US and Japan.
Modi, Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe met on the idelines of the G20 Summit in Buenos Aires last November.
The three countries along with Australia, are part of a quad that was revived in 2017 seeking to work for peace and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific region.

After finding this pie recipe I do not even bother with the "traditional" heavy custard pumpkin pies. The flavour and texture are just amazing.
Start heating oven to 450F.
Separate the eggs into the two mixing bowls.
Beat the egg yolks until they are thick and turn a pale yellow colour.
At a low speed beat in the sugar, salt, and spices; then add the pumpkin, creame, butter, and cornstarch.
Scrape the up the bottom and down the sides of the bowl and beat until all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Whisk the egg whites until the peaks are stiff but not dry.
Stir 1/4 of the egg whites into the pumpkin custard to lighten it.
Gently fold in the remaining egg whites in two installments.
Pour into the pie shell and bake @ 450F for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350F for 30 minutes and check if done. Check every 5 minutes after 30.
The pie is done when the custard wobbles only slightly when the pan is gently shaken or a toothpick inserted 2" from the centre comes out mostly clean.
Top each slice with honey, walnuts, and creame before serving.
I like to add 1/2 t. of vanilla and 1/4 t. of cloves to the spices when making the custard.
Any hard winter squash or sweet potato works well in this recipe.

I probably found the "Heavenly Pumpkin Pie" recipe way before you did. Some time in the late 1950's or early 1960's. I couldn't remember what magazine the recipe was in, so I couldn't send the recipe on.
My original recipe said to beat the eggs until frothy, then add the cornstarch slowly to the egg whites, then finish beating them until stiff but not dry.
This the only variety of pumpkin pie that I have made since I found the recipe, before that, I did not eat (or make) pumpkin pie. This one is now a family tradition.

The five-night music festival in May 1978 at the legendary gallery and performance venue Artists Space, at 105 Hudson Street in Tribeca, had no title. The flyers on the fences around vacant lots in Lower Manhattan said only “BANDS” with a lineup: Terminal, Gynecologists, Theoretical Girls, Daily Life, Tone Death, Contortions, DNA, Mars, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks. In the audience were The Village Voice’s Robert Christgau, John Rockwell from The New York Times and Brian Eno, in town to produce the Talking Heads’ second album. The Contortions’ set on Friday night was halted when James Chance, the group’s singer, and Mr. Christgau got into a fistfight. Tickets cost $3.
The Artists Space festival was No Wave’s apogee. Theoretical Music: No Wave, New Music, and the New York Art Scene, 1978-1983, an awkwardly titled three-day event last week at Issue Project Room in Gowanus, organized by Branden Joseph and David Grubbs, was the latest in a series of critical reconsiderations of the movement. If punk was nihilism sprung from political and economic turmoil, No Wave rose from the ashes of such gloom, when even nihilism had expired. The style disregarded melody and tone in favor of rhythm and texture. Its influence remains in the sounds emanating from the ever healthy population of makeshift clubs in New York, but the movement was little more than a cultural blip in New York history: the brief harmony of music, visual art and film in downtown Manhattan, showcased nightly at New Cinema on Astor Place, at small venues like CBGB and quasi-legal spaces like the Mudd Club.
The first night of Theoretical Music was a rare screening of James Nares’ film, Rome ’78, “the first and only No Wave epic,” in the words of Mr. Joseph. Its coarse style is like a 90-minute definition of No Wave’s broad umbrella. Starring the major filmmakers and musicians of the downtown scene–Eric Mitchell, Lydia Lunch, John Lurie, David McDermott and Mr. Chance, to name a few–the film retells the plot to murder Emperor Caligula, played by a skeletal Mr. McDermott (with a considerable gap in his teeth), set on the Lower East Side. There is a script but no one is following it. The camera work is filled with quick edits that embellish the actors’ flubbed lines, laughter and nose picking. Mr. McDermott’s Caligula is whining and pathological.
The second night featured two panels of No Wave’s exemplary players. The first consisted of Taro Suzuki, John Miller, Dan Graham and Kim Gordon, and was moderated by Mr. Joseph. Everyone was wearing black or gray, except for Mr. Graham, who wore a floral print shirt.
“I’d written an article for Screen magazine–I was very involved with Screen magazine, which was publishing the writings about the women’s movement from France, and I was invited by Mary Kelly, who’s a friend of mine and whose work I supported, to write something for Screen magazine, so I wrote an article called ‘New Wave Feminism,’ which was about comparing Julia Kristeva to Teenage Jesus and the Jerks; I also talked about the Raincoats, and the article, uh, uh, was turned down by Screen because they were really embarrassed that I should compare their French feminist heroines with all-girl rock bands, and uh, uh, my interest was when you saw girls playing together in these groups, that was very exciting for me as a male spectator, uh, so Kim Gordon wrote an essay called ‘Trash Drugs and Male Bonding,’ which I helped to get published in Real Life Magazine, and, uh, it was also a strategy as a teacher to Kim.” The audience took a deep breath.
THE SECOND PANEL included Nina Canal, Byron Coley, Peter Gordon, Thurston Moore and Ned Sublette. After everyone struggled to answer the question, “Where were you on January 1st, 1978?” the conversation disintegrated randomly into a discussion of disco. Mr. Moore grew silent and frowned.
“Uh, I’m a little uncomfortable with this whole disco thing,” he said.
The discussion was over when Mr. Gordon, of the Love of Life Orchestra, argued that No Wave ended with the beginning of the AIDS epidemic. No one disagreed with him.
No Wave’s beginning and end is still debatable, but the collection of No Wave music from 1978 Mr. Eno produced, No New York, featuring the four bands that performed on the last two nights of the Artists Space festival, at least gave the movement proof of its existence as well as a definitive moniker. It’s composed of 16 relentless songs that make Richard Hell sound like Barry Manilow, four each by the Contortions, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Mars and DNA. Appropriately, the album announcing No Wave’s arrival also sounded its death knell. By the time Sonic Youth, easily the most recognizable of any group to carry the No Wave label, played their first show, in 1981, many of the bands that performed at Artists Space no longer existed.
The final night’s performance by the newly reunited Ut, one of No Wave’s key groups, teetered between impressive and awkward. The three women in the band were stately and attractive. Jacqui Ham moaned rambling lyrics and played chords on the guitar that did not resemble guitar chords. Nina Canal overwhelmed the music with tribal rhythm. Sally Young, wearing a tight leather dress, sang in a throaty croon while attacking her guitar like it was some long-lost enemy. They stared ferociously at the audience, daring them to listen, but also with disbelief–this was their first concert in New York since 1990. At times, they approached the frightening vigor of their early days.
In between songs, however, they bore the marks of a band that had not played together for 20 years. As a kind of stage banter, they derided their performance. They tuned slowly and wordlessly. They were tired and defeated early into the set.
“This is exhausting,” Ms. Ham said at one point, looking and sounding like she meant it.
No Wave is dead. Long live No Wave: 105 Hudson Street is now home to Nobu, the Robert De Niro-owned sushi restaurant where patrons can snack on a Lobster Shiitake Salad, $39 a plate.

Yesterday I finally made it out to Gilliam County to complete my first raptor survey for the East Cascades Audubon Society. Last winter I agreed to take on both the north and the south routes, though yesterday I only completed the north one.
While driving along Fourmile Road I noticed a couple Mountain Bluebirds off to the side. I raised my binoculars and was surprised to find trees filled with them. I did a quick count of the blue dots and lost track at 40. They were moving about quite a bit and at one point a bunch flew to the road.
This was a good reminder that I do not spend enough time in Mountain Bluebird territory in the winter. Mixed with this flock was a large number of House Finches. Weird buddies.
After Fourmile Canyon Road I went a long time without seeing any raptors at all, over 20 miles of mostly gravel roads with no hawks, no kestrels, no eagles. One section of Baseline Road split in two directions suddenly with zero indication of which one was correct. I guessed. I guessed wrong.
I made it to Upper Rock Creek Road where things got a bit birdier, but still no raptors. Pretty horses though.
This is probably the only pro-Bernie sign in all of Gilliam County, and possibly all of rural Oregon.
Lower Rock Creek Road leads to McDonald Ferry Road which leads to the John Day River and dead ends. I had to turn around early due to mud but I still managed to get my county Common Goldeneye here. Woohoo. On my way back along Lower Rock Creek I noted a Say's Phoebe flycatching from the sagebrush and rocks.
I began to question everything I thought I knew about Say's Phoebes, like the notion that they left in the winter. Turns out, they do normally leave, but this fella did not catch the memo. Yesterday was about 70 degrees and mostly sunny though, so it didn't feel that strange.
The last 20 miles or so of my route only presented me with one raptor, a lone Rough-legged hovering in the wind. The scenery was lovely, with rain in the distance.
Deer were the only interesting wild mammals all day, often scattered on hillsides, watching me uncomfortably.
And that was my first completed raptor survey, with many more to come. It took me forever so I need to figure out how to be more efficient (hmm, probably stop taking so many damn photos). Good times!!!
I was expecting this week's blog to be cancelled because of weather, but you've come through with another day brightening post. Fun to read, informative and delightful photos.
Oh yes we did have some weather this week! Thankfully the worst of it was on days I had to work so I didn't miss out on much.
I love this! You make Gilliam County look good!
That's what they pay me for! I wish.
Floods and all sorts I saw on the news....glad it didn't impact you too much...mud is no fun tho...so what was the count in the end on the raptors...I don't see near as many hawks around as we once had in this area...Love the photo of the Golden!
Yep, the flooding was crazy. My basement had never seen so much water, but I think I have it all cleaned up now. Only 25 raptors that day including hawks, eagles, kestrels, and one owl.

The city of Skopje for the first time has been mentioned by Klaudie Diolomej, under its ancient name “Scupi”. In the III century B.C. Scupi was founded by the Dardanians, and later with the coming of the Romanians it came under their rule. In this period, the city experienced real bloom on several fields, it became a large religious centre with its own bishop. In the year of 518 the city was destroyed by a disastrous earthquake. Wonderful architectonic buildings, numerous public baths and the antic amphitheatre built in a roman style, large basilica with mosaic floors have completely disappeared from the earth’s face. Since then Skupi is not mentioned any more. The Skopje valley got a new city centre called “Justiniana Prima”. By the end of the VI century, in front of the ramparts of the city the Slavic people have showed up, which managed to occupy and to slavicize it for a period of only one century. This area was settled by the Slavic tribe Beregheziti and gives the city the new name Skopje. During the existence of the first Macedonian state and the Macedonian czar Samouil, the city becomes part of the Samouil’s empire. In the later years a lot of conquerors have passed through the streets of the city, Bulgarians, Bysantines, Serbians. In the year of 1392, the city falls under the Turkish rule. Up to 1453 Skopje was a throne of the Turkish sultans and later it developed in a significant craftsmen and commercial centre. A lot of authors who write about their travels have expressed their delight from the city. The Turkish writer Dilger Zede who has visited the city in the XVII century says, “I travelled for a long time across that country of Rumelija and I saw a lot of beautiful cities and I was amazed from the Alah blessings, but not one has impressed and delighted me so much as the heavens city of Skopje across which passes the river Vardar”. On 25th of October 1689 in front of the city gates, arrives the Austrian general Picolomini with its army. An event with an outstanding significance for Skopje. “I decided to burn the city in order not to leave the enemy something that could be of use to him. Although it is not easy, I decided to turn the city into ashes”. From the hillsides of the Vodno mountain, Pikolomini was observing the fire: “I am sorry for the houses such as I have not seen at all in this war. The mosques are from the highest quality marble and porphyry, decorated with thousands lamps on a golden plated holders, which one would devote equal attention even in Rome. I feel sorry for the nice antiquities, gardens and places for entertainment.” The fire was raging for two days and except the massive stone buildings, the city was completely destroyed. Up until the half of the XIX century, the city could not recover back its previous appearance in front of which the numerous people who write about their travelling have stopped with a delight. In the XIX century, the city becomes an important traffic centre. Moving towards the countries from the middle east, Napoleon has found out the road through Skopje. A lot of merchants with their endless caravans loaded with various goods have been passing through the city. In this period the city reaches the biggest development of the handicrafts. Later, Skopje begins to change its appearance. After the First World War on the right side of the river Vardar a modern city has been built. 26th of July 1963 is remembered as the longest day in the history of the city. Strong earthquake, of two severe and a few weaker shocks, turned the city into ruins. Numerous cultural monuments were seriously damaged or erased from the face of the earth. In today’s conditions the city is experiencing its own renaissance for many times in its history.

Jagdish "Jay" Shah was a consummate industry professional, a gentleman, a father, a grandfather and a loyal friend.
He passed away in his sleep August 5, 2015 while attending a sales meeting in Las Vegas. He was 73.
Jay was one of the first people I met in the pump industry 8 years ago. It didn't take long to get to know him. He was so friendly, approachable and endearing. He was kind, generous and always made me smile. No matter where he was in the world, he always returned my phone calls. He made special efforts to share his knowledge, his connections and his friendship. He was encouraging, but honest. He was friendly, but firm. He was smart, funny, adventurous and genuine. His contributions to the industry and to Hydro, Inc., are immeasurable. The measure of Jay, the man, even more difficult to define.
Jay joined Hydro as its first salesman in 1969. He later became a partner in the company and as the company expanded internationally, he served as President of Hydro International. Jay was the company’s premier ambassador who carried the Hydro vision to countries throughout the world including Canada, Korea, Australia, United Arab Emirates, France and Vietnam. A tireless traveler, logging more than 3 million miles, he cultivated a wide network of friends throughout the world. Jay’s philosophy was simple but powerful; friends and family first, then business.
My heart is heavy. The industry will miss Jay Shah. I miss my friend.
Services for Jay Shah were held on Monday, August 10.
In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Michael J. Fox Parkinson’s Foundation; https://www.michaeljfox.org.

Melbourne Writers Festival is passionate about fostering the next generation of readers through our Schools’ Program, with workshops and opportunities for students to meet Australian and international authors, artists, journalists and more. We also support teachers to share the wonderful world of reading with their students. In partnership with Reading Australia and the Copyright Agency’s Cultural Fund, MWF presents a series of essays by Australian writers about the wonderful work of Australian writers they admire. These essays are teaching resources that complement the vast array of resources that are freely available through Reading Australia.
In this essay, Ellen van Neerven explores the life and work of Oodgeroo Noonuccal. Find more teaching resources on Oodgeroo’s collection Kath Walker in China here.
At the Emerging Writers Festival in June, acclaimed Goori novelist Melissa Lucashenko was asked to reflect on what she had learnt throughout her career. She responded: I wish I had known that in becoming a Black writer I was engaged in the ongoing work of not only decolonising Australian writing, but just as importantly, in decolonising my own mind.
In the early 2000s, I attended high school in the northern suburbs of Brisbane. The source of confusion in my teenage years was the painful pushback from my educational environment against the most special and sacred parts of me. In our education there was also a wounding disconnect from our local context of South East Queensland. We weren’t taught to fully appreciate or understand where we were living. Where was Oodgeroo Noonuccal, whose Country, Minjerribah, North Stradbroke Island, was only a stone’s throw away away from where I grew up, and her influence, which was widespread and substantial, in our learning? Indeed, where was any First Nations perspective, local or otherwise?
‘The Past’ appears in Oodgeroo’s second collection The Dawn is at Hand, first published in 1964.
For the last few years, like Lucashenko, I have been contemplating what decolonisation means to me. To decolonise my own mind, I decentre and derail the settler invader perspective and understand the truth of Country. Our cultural and meaning-making replaces the draining capitalist and exploitative markings on our ancestors’ land.
At the approach of the bicentennial in 1988, there was anger and sadness for many Indigenous Australians. 200 years had passed and still no treaty or constitutional recognition, and the celebrations of European arrival were hollowing and insulting. So Noonuccal returned the MBE she had been awarded in 1970 to Queen Elizabeth II in protest. Additionally she changed her name from Kath Walker to the traditional name in her language, ‘Noonuccal’ being her people (note there’s different spellings in usage, Noonuckle, Nunukul, Nunuccal, as spellings are derived from an oral language) and adopting ‘Oodgeroo’ which means ‘paperbark’, as her first name.
In 1984 Oodgeroo Noonuccal was a part of a group of Australian writers who toured China. No stranger to overseas travel, she had been on previous occasions to Fiji, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea and Nigeria. Arriving in Shanghai, she hadn’t written poetry for a long time. Friend and historian Manning Clark, in his foreword to Kath Walker in China (1988) writes about seeing a ‘twinkle in her eye’, as she wrote prolifically during the visit – she was deeply inspired. These poems became the first collection written by an Indigenous Australian to be co-published by Australian and Chinese publishing houses and presented in Chinese and English.
Poems such as ‘China…Woman’, ‘Reed Flute Cave’, ‘Entombed Warriors’, ‘Visit to Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall’, ‘Sunrise on Huampu River’ and ‘A Lake Within a Lake’ all appear in Kath Walker in China. The publisher’s synopsis of Kath Walker in China describes the book as a collection of poems in English with translations into Putonghua (modern standard Chinese) on Chinese and Australian themes and includes Noonuccal traditional stories, also translated.
Leane’s poem shares many similarities with Noonuccal’s, and serves both as a tribute to Oodgeroo and a connector between two generations of Indigenous poets travelling to China. Though the two rivers mentioned in the poems are on opposite ends of the country, the pull to water sources is the same. In both poems the descriptions of life and daily habit are invigorated by images, the moving sun, light and the symbolism of gold.
In 1972 Oodgeroo returned to live at home in North Stradbroke Island, establishing a place called Moongalba, which means sitting down place. She wanted to respond to the island’s environmental threats and her concerns that Indigenous knowledge was going ignored. At Moongalba she ran educational holiday camps for children. It is estimated that during the course of the centre’s lifetime, she taught more than 25,000 students. ‘It’s the children who are going to change this world for the better, not the adults,’ she said in As the Twig is Bent: The Childhood Recollections of Sixteen Prominent Australians (1979) edited by Terry Lane.

Firearm manufacturer Colt Canada is working on a smart rifle that would reduce the burden on Canadian soldiers. The rifle is being equipped with a smart-targeting system that could automatically engage targets.
Indoor gun ranges had high traffic on Valentine's Day this past weekend — and not just from sharpshooting sweethearts. One Las Vegas facility created a Valentine's Day experience for divorcees looking to let off some steam. V-Day is apparently always the busiest day of the year for the Montgomery Indoor Shooting Complex in Alabama, where the range is considered a hip date spot.
In a Marine Corps first, the service recently added a Glock pistol to its list of authorized individual weapons, optics and modular attachments. However, the 9mm semi-automatic Glock 19 pistol is officially approved for use only by personnel assigned to Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command, according to a force-wide message issued in mid-February. In fact, the pistol will carry a non-Marine inventory number because it is a U.S. Special Operations Command asset, according to the message.
On Feb. 13, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives released its proposed framework for determining whether a particular projectile may be exempted from the definition of "armor piercing ammunition."
Perhaps no feat better epitomizes the marriage of precision firearms technology and marksmanship ability than long-range shooting. But it takes more than just a suitable caliber, a quality rifle, a top-shelf optic and a steady trigger finger. Every one of those components must work together like a finely tuned instrument in the hands of a skilled musician. Most importantly, for the long-distance shooter, consistently successful shots out to 500-plus yards can only be achieved through extensive practice in a variety of conditions and lots of homework.
Springfield Armory’s newest crop of M1A rifles for 2015 are now shipping to gun stores nation-wide, including their updated Standard and Loaded M1A rifles and SOCOM 16 carbines. These rifles have been updated with new stock types and still deliver the M1A experience shooters everywhere have come to depend on, just with new looks, and in the case of the new M1A Loaded Precision Adjustable M1A, a dash of added functionality as well.

Do not use the corner of a razor blade or hold it at a 90-degree angle as you may scratch and damage the cook top surface.
Most window air conditioners have an expanding curtain on either side to help seal any gaps between the window frame and the air conditioner, but sometimes this seal isn’t perfect. Even extremely small gaps can leak air, which reduces the efficiency of your air conditioner and may let bugs and dust into your home. There are several ways to seal these gaps, but the simplest method is to use adhesive-backed open-cell foam weather-stripping to fill the space and prevent air leakage. Smaller gaps can also be filled with a claylike material called rope caulk.
Clean the surface of the window and air conditioner around the gaps. Remove dirt, grease and dust to ensure proper adhesion of the weather-stripping.
Measure the length of the first gap. Cut a piece of adhesive-backed foam weather-stripping to this length.
Peel the paper backing off the cut strip of weather-stripping and position the seal, sticky side up, along the underside of the window frame.
Press the strip along the window frame to get a smooth, tight seal. Do not adhere the weather-stripping so that it rests in front of the gap. This will not seal it properly. The foam must be within the gap so that it expands to give an airtight seal.
Refrigerators made from stainless steel can often become dented when they reside in a busy restaurant kitchen or a busy home. Although a dent may not affect the performance of a refrigerator, it can usually cause a refrigerator to become unattractive, especially since dents in stainless steel are more noticeable due to the metal's reflective and shiny properties. A dent can be removed from a stainless steel refrigerator using a hair dryer and dry ice. Continue reading this article to learn about the dent removal procedure.
Clean the dented area of your refrigerator.
Cleaning the affected section will allow you to see the dent clearly, and will prevent any dirt, food particles, and other elements from negatively affecting the dent removal procedure.
Use a soft cloth, rag, or paper towels to remove any existing grime from the dented section of the refrigerator.
Heat up the perimeter of the dented area.
Use a hair dryer for between 30 seconds and 1 minute. The purpose of using the hair dryer is to heat up the metal so that it expands slightly. Use the hair dryer's medium or warm setting to avoid overheating the metal.
Place thick, heavy-duty gloves on both of your hands.
Wrap a piece of dry ice in a soft, suede cloth.
The suede cloth will protect your stainless steel refrigerator from any scratches during the application of the dry ice.
Gently press the bundle of dry ice to the center of the dented area.
Then, rub the dry ice gently in a circular motion over the entire perimeter of the affected area. Continue to rub over the dented area until 1 full minute has passed.
Repeat all steps using the hair dryer and dry ice if the dent is not removed from your stainless steel refrigerator after the first try. The rapid change in temperature from using the hair dryer to applying the dry ice should cause the dent to eventually pop out.

Health insurance provides you with the peace of mind that you are going to receive medical treatment as soon as possible and where you choose to without needing to face long NHS queues or bureaucracy.
The NHS does provide the range of treatments, however, as a patient you do not necessarily know the period of time you have to remain on waiting lists. Hence, selecting private medical insurance aids your healthy recovery.
Health insurance comes in various forms. With the majority of private medical insurance policies you have to pay a monthly premium and the policy subsequently pays out, up to set cover limits, for the treatment you require.
You can lower the cost of specific policies by showing that you lead a healthy lifestyle, by say going to the gym on a frequent basis.
You can also get health cash plans which contribute towards your standard healthcare costs. Health cash plans work by paying out a cash sum when you go for a visit to a dentist or other medical practitioner, like an optician chiropodist; you can spend the cash as you wish. .
What to look for with health insurance?
Medical insurance premium policies increase as you get older, however, there are some exceptions.
The majority of health insurance policies charge an excess, the part of an insurance policy you have to pay yourself. Should you want more comprehensive cover and keep your costs relatively down, an option is to opt for a medical insurance policy which provides a wider range of benefits, enabling you to choose a higher excess. Of note is that should you select this option, you could pay for treatment for a lengthy period of time without reaching the excess level.
Prior to purchasing health care cover, it is vital that you know precisely what benefits it will pay out. Should you choose a very low cost plan, it is likely that it may just pay hospital admission costs, not out-patient costs. As 1 out of 5 by GPs leads to hospital admissions, policies that do not cover out-patient costs are going to less useful than those that do cover out-patients costs.
It is best to read all the small print on policies to pinpoint whether or not any specific illnesses and treatments are not covered by your health insurance policy.

Fred Brophy is a fourth generation traveling showman and heads the last surviving tent boxing troupe in the world. To many, Fred is an outback hero. He is friend, counselor and savior to the rural unemployed and destitute. He invites drifters into his troupe and employs and mentors young people to keep them off drugs. He helps out communities and donates much of his income to local causes and charities. In 2010 Fred will embark on his final boxing tour of Queensland before retiring. An 80-year iconic Australian tradition will come to an end. But Fred wants to go out with a bang. He plans to make the last tour his best ever and an unforgettable experience for both his boxers and the audiences in the towns he visits.

In 2012, some of the editors of the two series on the history of neuropsychopharmacology, one sponsored by the CINP and the other by ACNP, founded an International Network for the History of Neuropsychopharmacology. The original objective of the Network was to preserve and generate educational material related to the history of the field.
In 2013, the Network became active by launching its website and posting weekly material relevant to the history of the field for comments and discussion. Information on the website was presented in 12 “projects” (Dictionary, Drugs, Photos, Profiles, Controversies, Textbook, Discoveries, Books, Biographies, Perspective, Archives and E-Books), and by 2014, some of these projects grew into programs.
In 2016, INHN extended its activities to developing educational programs that would facilitate communication between neuropsychopharmacologists of different generations and educational background and in January 2016, INHN website communication was complemented with the INHN Educational Series. Currently, INHN activities are being further extended with a research program.
To facilitate the participation of Network members in INHN activities by the end of 2016, INHN Network Communications will be converted into a programmed operation in which each Network member will be invited individually to contribute to each project with some regularity. Invitations will be accompanied with an updated, collated document of respective project that will make it possible for new members to participate if interested in the exchange of already established projects.
Programmed operation will also help to keep each project active until the collated documents are converted into Educational E-Book.

Through Chrome on the desktop or through official (or unofficial) apps on Android and iOS, there’s truly plenty of reasoning to give the Chromecast a long, hard look. One benefit is its portability (it’s really small). That’s great for anyone traveling and wanting to hook up to a hotel TV and stream their own content. The Chromecast would be our-go option for travel as we just need the unit itself and our smartphone rather than worrying about including a separate remote. Its new design mirrors a small, plastic hockey puck. The single, short cable connects to a single HDMI connecter and goes right into your TV. Setting up the Chromecast is incredibly easy. Just plug it in, grab the Chromecast app for your smartphone and follow the few prompts and you’re off to the races.
In this article, we will show you how to stream all of your Blu-ray and DVD movies to TV with Chromecast.
If you want to cast a Blu-ray or DVD to TV via Chromecast, you need a Blu-ray converter to convert Blu-rays, DVDs to Chromecast supported file formats like MP4 and WebM firstly.
Here you should take Brorsoft Blu-ray Ripper for Windows | for Mac into your consideration: all-in-one Blu-ray ripping tool with powerful functions: “Copy the entire disc”, “Directly copy” and rip any Blu-ray/DVD movies to 250+ video formats. It is means that you can rip the Blu-ray and DVD movies to Chromecast best compatible H.264 MP4 or WebM format for streaming Blu-ray and DVD to TV.
Load your disc to the Blu-ray drive room, and launch the Blu-ray Ripper; click the disc button to import your Blu-ray/DVD movies to the program.
Click the main file of your Blu-ray/DVD to select the subtitles for Blu-ray/DVD movies in the “Subtitles” option.
Step 2: Choose Chromecast best compatible H.264 MP4 or WebM format.
In the dropdown list of Format menu, you can find the format you like. Just below Format is Output, here you can browse your computer for a better destination folder for Brorsoft Blu-ray Ripper to output your converted Blu-ray / DVD movies.
Tip: You can click “Settings” to change the video resolution, bit rate and other specifications of the videos. Please remember the file size is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in bigger file size, and lower visible quality loss.
The final step is to tap the Convert button and commence converting Blu-ray / DVD movies to MP4 or WebM for Chromecast.
When the conversion finished, you can click “Open” to locate the output files and easily stream them to Chromecast for enjoyment without any limitation.
If you not only wanna convert BD/DVD videos, but also intend to convert HD Videos such as XAVC/XAVC-S, MTS, MXF, MKV, WMV, MOV, M4V, AVI, FLV movies to TV with Chromecast, the all-in-one tool, Brorsoft’s Video Converter Ultimate (or iMedia Converter for Mac) will be your first and best choice. It is a yet professional all-in-one Blu-ray Ripper, DVD Ripper and HD Video Converter, which comparatively has better output quality, in particular HD videos and intuitive interface. What’s more, its deinterlacing function and merging, cropping, trimming, adding subtitles ability are what its many competitive products lack of.
so far this is the best solution i’ve found, thank you!

The 2000 census reported that of among the nation’s 19.6 million preschoolers, grandparents took care of 21 percent, 17 percent were cared for by their father (while their mother was employed or in school); 12 percent were in daycare centers; nine percent were cared for by other relatives; seven percent were cared for by a family day care provider in their home; and six percent received care in nursery schools or preschools. More than one-third of preschoolers (7.2 million) had no regular child-care arrangement and presumably were under maternal care.
Daycare establishments are defined as those primarily engaged in the care of infants or children, or in providing pre-kindergarten education, where medical care and/or behavioral correction are not a primary function or major element. Some may or may not have substantial educational programs, and some may care for older children when they are not in school.
What are Your Child’s Risks of Being Exposed to a Contagious Illness at a Daycare Center?
Medline, a service of the National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health, reports that daycare centers do pose some degree of an increased health risk for children, because of the exposure to other children who may be sick.
When your child is in a daycare center, the risk is greatest for viral upper respiratory infection (affecting the nose, throat, mouth, voice box) and the common cold, ear infections, and diarrhea. Some studies have tried to link asthma to daycare. Other studies suggest that being exposed to all the germs in daycare actually IMPROVES your child’s immune system.
Studies suggest that the average child will get eight to ten colds per year, lasting ten – 14 days each, and occurring primarily in the winter months. This means that if a child gets two colds from March to September, and eight colds from September to March, each lasting two weeks, the child will be sick more than over half of the winter.
At the same time, children in a daycare environment, exposed to the exchange of upper respiratory tract viruses every day, are expected to have three to ten episodes of otitis media annually. This is four times the incidence of children staying at home.
When Should Your Child Remain at Home Instead of Daycare or School?
When other children in the daycare facility have a known contagious infection, such as chicken pox, strep throat or conjunctivitis, keep your child at home.
Can You Prevent Your Child from Becoming Sick at a Daycare Center?

We began 2018 in 2017, with the annual Twelve-Step retreat at Holy Cross. We rejoiced to see old friends, and many new faces.
We then spent three Sundays with the people of Christ Church, Marlboro NY and the Church of the Ascension in West Park. Their rector retired on December 31, and we were glad to preach and preside with them at this tender time.
We each continue with our other work: seeing people for spiritual direction, preparing for spring retreats, volunteering with the Mastery Foundation. The food pantry is closed this month, but Shane will return next month.
Our new Covenant Group is shaping up, with many wonderful people signing on. Three of our former group members are moving into deeper commitment as well, so we are full of organizing and preparing for their new beginnings. We now have a serious aspirant for residential life, and we ask for prayers for discernment and courage for her and for us. Stay tuned!
We each managed some days of family time in January: Dario with his family in Italy, Elizabeth at the Jersey shore, and Shane at a wedding in Chicago and Milwaukee. We are grateful to be able to visit, and ready to get back to a normal schedule!
But first, Shane and Elizabeth will take their annual house retreat January 26-31. We will be in silence, listening for God rather than phones or computers. Please pray for us, that we let God lead us and teach us.

You are reading page 2 of A floor crush - how do I deal with this?. If you want to start from the beginning Go to First Page.
Avoid having romantic relationships with coworkers. Although tempting, it can lead to a whole set of new problems. If for some reason you two break up, then that will create tension on the floor between the two of you and with all your other coworkers. It is also not safe for patients, if either one of you refuse to help the other with their patients, eg. boosting patient up etc, due to your own personal problems. Even if the two of you don't break up, it will still make things awkward for everyone else on the floor. Don't forget you will be gossiped about. The only time this would work is if the two of you work on different floors.
It doesn't sound like you are that interested in her, and she manipulated you into the relationship. You mentioned she has "emotional issues"-- who know how deep they run. You could jeopardize your career as well if things don't go well and she reports you to the manager. I have seen this happen to two coworkers who were dating, things went south, and the female reported the male to the manager and he was fired, even though the allegations were not true. Seeing how competitive nursing jobs are, you do not want to find yourself out of a job. This is an extreme perspective, yes, but do not discount it.
interested in? I mean seriously. FOUR HOURS?
"You here FOUR HOUR!!? Why you here FOUR HOUR???"
I wanna know where they work that they have 4 hours to sit around and gab.
Sour lemon, I may be wrong, but didn't you have a similar post?

The issue of strikes by taxi drivers have been bothering Uber India for a while.
Recently, taxi unions in Delhi-NCR declared a strike against Uber/Ola, which caused much unrest among passengers, and forced both Uber and Ola to negotiate.
But, it seems Uber has had enough of these strikes.
In one of the rarest cases, a multinational company like Uber has decided to strike against taxi union, quite literally. They have filed a lawsuit in Bombay High Court against few taxi unions, demanding Rs 12 crore as compensation.
In their lawsuit, Uber has alleged that accused few taxi unions of stopping drivers from working, and blamed them as genuine drivers were “verbally abused, physically assaulted and threatened”.
The four taxi unions against whom the lawsuit has filed are Sangharsh Tourist Chalak Malak Sangh, an association of taxi owners and drivers, Action Committee of Maharashtra against Ola and Uber, Mumbai Vikas Foundation, All Drivers Welfare Association and Maharashtra Tourist Permit Union.
As per the lawsuit, few powerful taxi unions are creating an artificial obstacle for genuine, hardworking drivers, and resorting to violence so that none of them can work. In a way, these taxi unions are blackmailing Uber and compelling them to increase the payout.
Meanwhile, while listening to arguments by Uber, Bombay High Court has passed an interim order, thereby restricting taxi unions from stopping Uber drivers.
The Court also directed the joint commissioner of police (traffic) to ensure that such taxi unions are not able to stop drivers from working in Mumbai.
At the same time, a story has emerged in the US, wherein the author has claimed that at one point in time, Apple was so angry with Uber that their CEO Tim Cook once threatened to kick out Uber’s app from Apple play store.
Allegedly, Uber was storing and running a secret piece of code inside iPhones, even if the user had deleted the app. This was clearly against Apple’s rules, and Tim Cook didn’t take it lightly.
It seems that Uber is well aware of the tactics which are used to win businesses, and anyone wishing to use the same tactics against Uber will have to pay the price.
Do you think that Uber is right in suing taxi unions? Do let us know by commenting right here!

It was while watching an insect-themed episode of Lifetime’s Project Accessory that I first began to understand the absolute obsession some adults have with creepy crawly creatures. Other channels are now catching on to this insect interest, as well. BBC America is creating a show for all the people in the world who have an odd obsession with insects. Here’s looking at you, Project Accessory contestant Rich Sandomeno.
I wouldn't automatically pin Monaghan as an insect lover, but apparently jumping into the natural world is nothing new to the actor.
"I have been obsessed and interested in nature all my life. This show brings together years of excited preparation by finally creating a series that demonstrates my love for travel, animals, adventure and people."
While Monaghan’s words speak more about his love for the outdoors than his knowledge of insects, BBC Worldwide America GM Perry Simon assures us the actor has knowledge of insects to back up his people skills.
The Cream Productions and Wildfire Television produced series, which is set to premiere sometime later this year, sounds pretty interesting. By crossing the typical travel show with the weird insect premise, Wild Things should be able to garner the interest of multiple audiences. Even people like me, who love travel shows but do not dig insects quite as much.

Y dice "donde estas amor?"
I love this song, because it talks about how felt the firs time that he meet a girl, and how it gets inside of him, how he wishes to have just a little thing like a picture to have a prove that he was with her, and he wishes to be there with her and kiss her and hug her. It was like he was inlove of her even befor he meet her.
Thanks for correcting Reik - Inolvidable lyrics!

I was just about to start my new job and I was really excited, but at the same time terrified. A few weeks prior to this I had been given a diagnosis of EUPD (Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder). I had done this job before for different companies but I always had a wobbly moment or two whilst I did it and it would usually end up with me having a moment of bursting out into to tears in front of my manager. At the time I didn’t realise, but these moments were actually symptoms of my disorder.
Each time this happened, however, my manager would be great. I was a few days into the job (it was a residential job) and decided that it would probably be best to tell my manager about my diagnosis, so I did. He was really supportive to start with. But when he realised I was struggling with eating he became impatient with me and told me that if I didn’t start he would have to send me home. I was devastated that I let myself be this way so I tried my hardest to eat.
I managed to get through this job but wasn’t really given any practical support to help me, and no adjustments were made. I reapplied to work for this company the following year, and I just presumed I would get offered the job like everyone else who had previously worked for them - and I also had the most experience.
However in the interview I was drilled into and criticised for the way I acted the previous year. I was told that I was irresponsible and setting a bad example by not eating and that I should have been able to control myself at their celebration event. I was also told that if I wanted this job I would have to prove that I was better. I burst out into tears in this interview as I was being blamed for something I had no control over, I was really ill. This made me feel like I couldn’t be open about my mental health anymore, so I began to keep things quiet again. It took me a while to feel comfortable enough to be open again.
A couple of years later I applied for the same job again but with the company who took over the last company’s contract. When I went to the group interview, I decided to wear a top that showed my scars, as it was hot.
A few days later I had a phone call from manager. She brought up the fact that someone had seen my scars - I panicked and thought I wasn’t going to get the job. But she just wanted to ask how I was doing now and if there was anything they could do to support me whilst I worked for them. She also accidentally revealed to me that I had got the job (a week early). I was so happy and felt so supported. I even got promoted to a managerial role.
When we were away on programme my manager visited me one day and noticed I was wearing a long-sleeved top, and she said that I didn’t have to if I didn’t want to and told me that if anyone said anything they’d have her to answer to. However, it wasn’t actually that I wanted to hide my arm, I was just trying to stop myself getting sunburnt! But it was such a different reaction than the job before.
I also had the young people telling me that I inspired them by being so open and a member of my staff saying they felt comfortable to wear shorts and show their scars too. This experience of working made me feel so much better than the year before.
However, always try and protect yourself if you are supporting a colleague or employee by making sure you have support also.
At the end of the day just remember you can’t really go wrong as long as you listen.

A unique book for the ones who are not fun of social media and who are not willing to invest their next 5 years building their author platform: A hope for Instant earnings.
I adore the author’s writing. It is so funny and clever. I tend to laugh often while reading it, and then I share with my hubby the jocks. He is hilarious. In addition, he gives a crazy amount of resources, many of whom, I didn’t know about. The book is priceless, for the resources alone.
One issue I find is that it gets into too many details on how to create a stunning cover and things like that – when I would rather have a separated book on those subjects.
I strongly recommend it, but I would give you one advice: don’t just read it and put it aside. Use it, reread it, follow its advice and be consistent. Success and money do not come by reading. They come through consistent action.

Grapes are fruits of the vine, whose botanical name is vitis vinifera. This plant probably dates back a million years. And ever since man learned of the properties of its fruit, he has never stopped growing and safeguarding it in every possible way.
Every grape has a protective skin whose thickness variess from 2 to 10 thousandths of a millimetre. Huge amounts of aromatic and colouring substances are concentrated in this thin layer. If, for the vine-maker, the whole grape is all-important, the Grappa distiller’s attention is focused on the skin.
The skin’s aromatic substances constitute the primary aroma of the Grappa, because they are already present first and since the beginning in this part of the grape. This is why it will be easy to recognise a Muscat Grappa if we know the flavour of the grapes used to make it. Nature chose the skin of the grape to fix an enormous quantity of aromatic substances that produce unmistakable fragrances. Few other fruits and vegetable essences can compete with the aromatic complexity of grapes.
It is always necessary to make a distinction between the intensity of a fragrance, or a flavour, and its complexity. While, in a certain way, the intensity gives the strength of a fragrance thanks to its impact on the olfactory mucous membrane, the complexity is given by all the notes making up that given fragrance. Therefore, if we smell a bunch of a hundred red roses, the intensity will be very marked, but with low complexity. On the other hand, if we smell a bouquetof a hundred of 100 different flowers, the intensity will be marked but, above all, the complexity will be enormous.
Therefore, as Grappa is made with grape skins, this distillate holds a wealth of fragrances ranging from flowers to fruit, sweet spices, citrus fruits, candied fruit and even the fragrance of medicinal herbs. Few other distillates can boast such taste and smell characteristics, given the very high concentration of aromatic substances obtained on distilling marc.
Grappa is a distillate of marc. The quality of the marc is the first and most important factor for obtaining a good product and distillers are well aware of this, which is why they take great care in choosing the raw material. The freshness and good condition of the marc are all-important, since any deterioration in these qualities will inevitably have a bearing on the end-product.
Before proceeding with the distillation of the marc, it must contain alcohol. This is possible only when the marc has been fermented, i.e. when the sugar contained in it has been converted into alcohol. This condition depends on the type of vinification thaw was adopted. Marc coming from the production of white wines not left to soak in the must during the fermentation, is called “virgin”. It is rich in sugars but not alcohol and therefore must be fermented before being distilled. Marc coming from the production of rosé wines has undergone brief soaking in the must during fermentation and is therefore called ”semi-fermented” and already contains a small part of alcohol. On the other hand, marc coming from the production of red wines has fermented in the must and is called “fermented” and therefore already contains alcohol and is ready for distillation. Before distilling virgin and semi-fermented marc, it must be completely fermented, so that the sugars convert into alcohol, thus obtaining fermented marc.
If the fermented marc is not distilled in a short time, special measures must be taken for its preservation, since it could easily deteriorate, become spoiled or go mouldy. Preservation of the marc is all-important, since altered and faulty marc will certainly produce a faulty and poor quality Grappa.

Do You Want To Build Your Side Business?
Are you caught in the vicious circle of wanting to quit your 9 to 5 but can’t yet because your side business isn’t making enough money but can’t grow the business because you’re working a 9 to 5?
I’m out of breath just writing it! I remember those days. The days before I had the courage to quit my job and take my side business full time. After all, it was just a hobby and only generated a fraction of what I was making at my “real” job.
My husband was the real hero of this story. When I said I wanted to quit, he said ok. Do what makes you happy. Sure we might have to scale back a bit but at least I would be home and we always had his income to fall back on.
Within months, I had doubled my income and within a year I was making twice what I would have at my “real” job. Now I know this isn’t possible for everyone. That’s why I’ve created this video series for you to show you how to automate your side business so what precious time you do have to work on your business can be focused on things other than sharing your blogs on social media!

The aurochs - a species of wild cattle a little less than the size of an elephant and the ancestor of modern breeding cattle - has been extinct since 1624.
And now a group of Italian scientists are planning to "breed back" the aurochs.
I wonder how well-done aurochs tastes with A1 Steak Sauce.

Ivan Krstić, Apple's Head of Security Engineering and Architecture, gave a presentation at the Black Hat conference a few weeks ago, and it is now available to view in full on YouTube.
With over a billion active devices and in-depth security protections spanning every layer from silicon to software, Apple works to advance the state of the art in mobile security with every release of iOS. We will discuss three iOS security mechanisms in unprecedented technical detail, offering the first public discussion of one of them new to iOS 10.
HomeKit, Auto Unlock and iCloud Keychain are three Apple technologies that handle exceptionally sensitive user data – controlling devices (including locks) in the user's home, the ability to unlock a user's Mac from an Apple Watch, and the user's passwords and credit card information, respectively. We will discuss the cryptographic design and implementation of our novel secure synchronization fabric which moves confidential data between devices without exposing it to Apple, while affording the user the ability to recover data in case of device loss.
It was at this presentation that Apple announced that it would launch a bug bounty program for those who discover vulnerabilities in its key products. Also discussed by Krstić during his presentation is how the Secure Enclave Processor enabled Apple to adopt a new approach to data protection, as well as a new security feature in iOS 10 that makes iOS Safari JIT "a more difficult target".

This post is an excerpt from the Pro Trader and Monthly Investor MacroLiquidity report. Subscriber links are below the text.
The Fed’s FOMC meeting minutes are a key instrument of official propaganda on how the Fed wants you to view policy. I won’t waste your time with what the Fed staff and FOMC members reportedly said about the economy and markets as represented in the July meeting minutes. Events have a way of superseding whatever they wanted you to think 6 weeks before the release.
Since the Fed professes that it wants to be “transparent,” why doesn’t it just release the full meeting transcripts right after the FOMC dog and pony show? And why, exactly, has no one in Big Media pressed the Fed on that?
The answer that it is a show and Big Media is part of it. The Fed doesn’t want to be transparent at all. It wants to manipulate the markets, not just you and me, but the big macro players who dominate trading. Big Media plays along with that. It hones and tweaks (and sometimes twists) the message which the Fed carefully attempts to craft for what it wants you to think, while not telling you what it really thinks. The BM is out in Jackson’s Hole right now, disseminating The Word of The Fed. The Wall Street Journal’s Jon Hilsenrath and his corps of Fed access queens has been hard at work, pumping out the official message.
Regarding the minutes, the key issue is not what the Fed thinks about the economy, which even Big Media has been reporting they never get right. There are two key issues. One is whether they admit to thinking about shrinking the balance sheet. The other is whether they discuss how they will actually get money rates to move higher when there’s such a gargantuan oversupply of cash in the banks. If we see discussions of those issues, it tells us that at least they are thinking about them.
In June they weren’t mentioned at all. That changed in July. The first few paragraphs of the minutes addressed these issues. Big Media mostly ignored that, instead focusing on the meaningless discussion of what the members and staff thought of the economy. But the Fed started the minutes with this, so it clearly wanted their media minions to pay attention.
The Desk’s overnight reverse repurchase agreement (ON RRP) operations continued to provide a soft floor for money market interest rates.
Not a shred of evidence was presented in support of that, mainly because there is no evidence to support that. The Fed wants you to think that by raising the interest it pays the banks that somehow that will make them want to charge their customers more. The Fed will pay the banks more income, in effect a bigger subsidy, lowering their cost of funds, and that will somehow make the banks charge their customers more?
Without reducing the supply of funds in the system, I see little chance of that, and increasing the amount of overnight or even term RRPs won’t do that. They are all short term cash assets to the banks, virtually the same as their reserve deposits at the Fed. It’s just a different form of deposit.
Next the minutes reported a discussion about synchronizing the timing of rate policy announcements with changes in RRP rates. Woop de doo. Meaningless.
Next they got to the really important stuff.
In the Policy Normalization Principles and Plans adopted at its September 16-17, 2014 meeting, the Committee indicated that it expects to cease or commence phasing out reinvestments of principal on securities held in the SOMA after it begins increasing the target range for the federal funds rate; the timing of this decision will depend on how economic and financial conditions and the economic outlook evolve. A staff briefing at this meeting provided background on alternative strategies the Committee could employ with respect to reinvestments.
Last September they proposed to shrink the balance sheet after beginning to raise rates, which is a form of putting the cart before the horse. I believe that they’ll find, if and when they try to raise rates, that the market won’t cooperate. Rates should only begin to rise when the actually shrink the balance sheet, thereby reducing the amount of excess cash in the banks, although how much shrinkage will be needed to sustain even minimally higher rates can’t be known.
These strategies included either characterizing qualitatively or specifying numerically the economic conditions under which reinvestments would cease, or establishing a date or time interval following the initial firming of the federal funds rate for the new policy on reinvestments to begin. The briefing also noted that the Committee could phase out reinvestments gradually or end reinvestments all at once.
In their discussion, most participants expressed a preference that the timing of the cessation of reinvestments be based on a qualitative assessment of economic conditions and the outlook.
Here we go again with the nebulous, non committal process of making decisions on the basis of, “It depends.” That allows them to continue to move the goalposts away from whatever the current conditions are, just as they have been for the past couple of years.
Then they reiterated their stance of wanting the cart to pull the horse.
Participants generally favored continuing reinvestments during the early stages of normalization, initially using only increases in the target range for the federal funds rate to reduce monetary policy accommodation. This approach was viewed as consistent with the Committee’s plans to rely on changes in the target range for the federal funds rate as the primary indicator of the stance of monetary policy.
Then they indicated that there was an argument about at what pace and in what mix to end the reinvestment of principal on Treasury and MBS securities. It was pointless… as was perhaps the entire discussion. It’s clear from the standards that they have selected as a basis for decision making that they remain on a path of deciding not to decide.
By putting the discussion of the mechanics of raising rates and shrinking the balance sheet first the Fed clearly wanted to focus attention on it. But Big Media ignored all of it, proving that the Fed can’t even control the message. The Fed’s BM access queens are an unruly mob after all. Instead the Fed’s minions focused on the part of the minutes devoted to the meaningless discussion of what the members and staff thought of the economy, the movable goal posts of policy making. If the Fed can’t even control its message in the media, how can it hope to influence the securities markets, the money markets, and the US economy?
If the Fed has little control over the message or the policy response of the markets and economy, trying to anticipate when the Fed will actually will act, or under what conditions, is a fool’s game. They obviously don’t know, and the market can’t know and won’t react in advance because, contrary to what Wall Street and its Big Media information ministry want you to believe, the market is not a discounting mechanism and can’t predict the future.
As the data in this report clearly shows, and has shown for years, the markets react to actual changes in liquidity. They do not predict them. It may appear that way to some but that’s a figment of the collective imagination. Trying to predict the Fed’s next move, and on a second or third order, what the market’s reactions will be on that basis, is just not a productive pursuit. The stock market’s price level is a measure of liquidity and the direction of the trend of liquidity, nothing more, and nothing less.

A meta-analysis of the comparative distance education (DE) literature between 1985 and 2002 was conducted. In total, 232 studies containing 688 independent achievement, attitude, and retention outcomes were analyzed. Overall results indicated effect sizes of essentially zero on all three measures and wide variability. This suggests that many applications of DE outperform their classroom counterparts and that many perform more poorly. Dividing achievement outcomes into synchronous and asynchronous forms of DE produced a somewhat different impression. In general, mean achievement effect sizes for synchronous applications favored classroom instruction, while effect sizes for asynchronous applications favored DE. However, significant heterogeneity remained in each subset.

Treo, DINOS is holding a contest where we can write a valentine’s letter to our DINOS dog – how about I interview instead?
Being a DINOS, any advice to those struggling?
On that self-discovery, Treo, we’ve never allowed being a DINOS to interfere with competing in Agility, Flyball or Rally-O, what’s kept you in there?
What a coincidence, I feel the same way. Except, I thought you were pretty easy to train, a-hem. Ok, next question. Your words, “other’s make me nervous.” Could you expand on that?
You’re welcome. I don’t like you to feel threatened. I like others to see you as I see you. 99% of the time you are happy-go-lucky, playing games, running, having a great time together.
What about your Dr. Jeckyl/Mr. Hyde routine with people? What’s that all about?
Well, no. That’d be rude.
Ok, good. Glad you like that. What advice do you have for other guardians who have DINOS like you?
Treo then hopped off the couch, grabbed is ball from the floor and pushed it into my lap. Tennis balls heal all. Never forget that.
Want more Treo? Check out Melissa’s blog Red Dogs Rule!
Holy mackerel does this describe my dog Cahira….she is not unfriendly to people, but she is unsure of them….she loves me and my husband and our immediate family. Others, it takes awhile. Thanks for sharing.

Royal Bank of Scotland chief executive Ross McEwan has warned in a BBC interview that a no-deal Brexit could tip the UK economy into recession.
He told the BBC a “bad Brexit” could result in “zero or negative” economic growth.
He said RBS was becoming careful about lending to certain sectors of the economy, especially retail and construction.
RBS is still 64% owned by the UK taxpayer following its bailout during the last financial crisis.

Take South Florida -18 spread against Temple risking 3% of the bankroll.
The South Florida Bulls had high expectation coming into the season, and so far, they have lived up to them. The identity of this team is unquestionably their offense as they have had no issue running up the points through their first couple of matchups. So far, this season they have averaged 40 points per game and over 522 yards of total offense per contest. There is no question that the Bulls have had this matchup circles on their calendar since it was this Temple team who knocked South Florida out of the conference title picture with a 46-30 defeat a season ago. Now, the Bulls will be out for revenge and we believe they will have a good chance at getting it as this is not the same Temple team that they played a season ago.
The Owls defense closed out the 2016 season ranked 11th in scoring, 3rd against the pass and 3rd in overall yards allowed per game, and while a drop in effectiveness can be expected with only four starters back and having had lost 6 of their top 7 in tackles, there is not much that can excuse their porousness through the first quarter of the season so far, with the team currently ranking 96h against the run and 120th against the pass. Temple allowed over 400 yards on the ground and three different players to eclipse the century mark in week one against Notre Dame, and now must travel on the road on a short week to battle a South Florida offense that themselves had three players go over 100 yards rushing just last week in their beatdown of Illinois.
Unfortunately for Temple fans, their struggles on the defensive side are not the only ones the team is experiencing. Thus far this season, their offense is currently ranked 98th in total yards per game and has scored over 20 points just once so far, this season. The rushing attack led by Ryquell Armstead has fizzled to start the year, with the team having scored just one touchdown on the ground thus far and currently sitting at 116th in the nation. Armstead, who finished last year with 14 rushing touchdowns, has yet to score this season and has rushed for just 177 yards on 48 carries which translates to an unfortunate average of 3.7 yards per carry. Those kinds of numbers are not going to be enough to allow Temple to keep pace with the high-flying Bulls offense.
The Bulls will clearly have payback after their loss last season and now have the benefit of getting a clearly depleted Owl team that was blown out on the road in week one against Notre Dame. The Owls look like a completely different team and struggled mightily at home over the past few weeks to barely get past lowly Villanova and UMass. Charlie Strong has a point to prove this season and he has the offensive playmakers on his team to make a statement. The Owls simply will not have an answer for Quinton Flowers on defense and we don't believe their offense will be able to keep pace in this contest. South Florida should win this game fairly easily in blowout fashion. Unless Temple manages to get a score in garbage time when the game is well out of reach, South Florida should win this one by 3+ touchdowns.

A doting father has won a national award for his dedication to his wife and young son.
Daniel Rawson was nominated for the Bepanthen Doting Dad Award by his wife Natasha for the continual support he gave her during their difficult path to parenthood.
Now in its 20th year, the Tommy’s Awards recognise heroes of families who have been touched by pregnancy complications, or the loss of a baby.
Each year in the UK, one in four parents lose a baby through miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth; and 60,000 babies are born prematurely.
Natasha nominated Daniel to publicly acknowledge how much his support has meant over the past three years.
Together the couple have gone through pregnancy loss, the premature birth of their son at 32 weeks and grave risks to Natasha’s own well-being after she developed the condition pre-eclampsia.
She said: “I don’t know how I would’ve done it without Dan. He was our rock. He kept us going, he made us feel safe, he made us feel secure.
After Toby was born by emergency caesarean, Natasha was too ill to leave her bed for the next 27 hours, so Daniel split his time between caring for Natasha and visiting their son, bringing back new photos of Toby to share on the hour.
Natasha spent the next three weeks recovering in hospital while Toby was in neonatal care for four weeks.
During this time, Daniel, who lives in Ecton, followed a punishing schedule of getting up at 5am for work, visiting his wife and son for afternoon visiting hours, returning to work, visiting in the evening and continuing work again.
Toby is now 18 months old, and Dan and Toby enjoy a very special bond.
Jane Brewin, the chief executive of Tommy’s, said: “Natasha and Dan have been through so much together.
Tommy’s funds medical research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.

Soon, kids young and old aspiring to imitate Iron Man will only need to learn how to duplicate Tony Stark's snarky wit, because Hasbro will now supply the augmented reality helmet.
This spring, just in time for Avengers: Infinity War, the latest installment of Marvel's cinematic juggernaut, Hasbro will sell the Hero Vision Iron Man AR helmet for $49.99 through HasbroToyShop.com and "most major retailers," according to a company-issued statement provided to Next Reality via email.
For all intents and purposes, the toy is similar to Star Wars: Jedi Challenges, using a smartphone docked into AR goggles and the iconic Iron Man helmet, as well as an accompanying app to provide the heads up display information and gameplay.
Rather than lightsaber duels and holochess, players will face off with bad guys, such as Thanos (an Infinity War character), by shooting virtual beams and blocking incoming fire with the accompanying gauntlet. No arc reactor is required, but the playset does employ three AR markers to anchor the AR content. The set also includes one Infinity Stone, presumably to draw Thanos off his space throne and into an infinite war.
With all due respect to some of the classic examples of science fiction that preceded it, the imaginary Stark tech that the Marvel Cinematic Universe deploys for its string of Iron Man appearances represents everything about AR that I want to see come true within the next five to 20 years.
Marvel movies make fictional augmented reality paired with computer vision, helpful (not malevolent) artificial intelligence, responsive voice command interface, and interconnected devices look really cool, and the fact that the tech is tantalizingly close to being an everyday reality makes my fanboy heart flutter.
For now, the game serves as a tease for the real AR future to come—one for which I'll gladly throw my money at.
In the meantime, I'll just take in my daily view of the Infinity War trailer.

In the United States, chronic wounds affect 6.5 million patients. At Presence Holy Family's Wound Healing Center, we treat these wounds and work to prevent reoccurrence by correcting contributing factors like controlling infection and enhancing medical and nutritional status.
The Wound Healing Center is staffed with a unique team of specialists all dedicated to healing chronic wounds. The combined knowledge of our team members creates a multidisciplinary approach to wound management. We are dedicated to healing wounds that have not responded to traditional treatment.
You may decide to come to the Wound Healing Center on your own or your physician may refer you. As our patient, you will receive a careful evaluation and an individually designed outpatient treatment program for your wound. Your treatment plan is clearly communicated with your physician, and your progress is reported regularly. Once your wound treatment is complete, you will return to your physician for follow-up visits.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO) - HBO therapy is an intermittent treatment of 100% oxygen at an increased atmospheric pressure, roughly equivalent to what a SCUBA diver would experience at around 30 feet below the water's surface. Patients receive treatment while they relax in a transparent, cylindrical chamber. This therapy improves the body's ability to kill germs and promote healing. It is typically used to treat such problems as diabetic ulcers, circulatory disorders, compromised skin grafts, cyanide or carbon monoxide poisoning, and bone infections. Patients usually "dive" every day for about two hours, over the course of eight to 10 weeks.
Wound Dressings - Specific wound care products will be chosen for you wound depending on your needs. Proper dressing can go a long way to promote healing.
Wound Debridement - This minor surgical procedure enhances the growth of healthy tissues in the wound, creating an environment that leads to healing.
Wound VAC (vacuum assisted closure) Therapy - This therapy promotes wound healing through Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT). By delivering negative pressure (a vacuum) at the wound site through a patented dressing, this helps draw wound edges together, remove infectious materials and actively promote granulation at the cellular level.
Transcutaneous Oxygen Monitoring - This test records the level of oxygen available to your wound. The more oxygen your wound gets, the quicker the healing can be complete.
Doppler Evaluation Pulses - This technique measures the blood flow available to bring nutrients and medications to the wound. The better the blood flow is, the quicker healing will occur.
Much of the success of your treatment depends on you. We count on you to follow directions carefully and watch your progress closely. You'll learn to care for your wound at home and how to protect yourself from further injuries. The staff at the Wound Healing Center is available to answer questions and give you the support you need.
The Wound Healing Center at Presence Holy Family Medical Center is located on the main hospital campus. Patients may enter the Center through the River Road Professional Office Building or the main hospital entrance.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, call 847.813.3388.
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO) Therapy?
HBO is a medical treatment that increases the amount of oxygen in the patient's blood, allowing oxygen to pass more easily through the plasma into the wounds to heal them. HBO chambers surround patients with 100% oxygen at higher than normal atmospheric pressure.
Usually, there is no benefit to increasing the level of oxygen in the body for normal, healthy individuals. People with certain medical conditions do, however, benefit from increased levels of oxygen.
If you have a wound that hasn't healed in four weeks, consult the Wound Healing Center. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy may be an appropriate part of the treatment plan. A physician at the center will evaluate your wound and determine the best course of treatment.
If you have a movie you would like to share with other patients, please bring it with you. Otherwise, you don't need to bring anything. If you have diabetes, make sure you eat before your treatment begins. If your sinuses are congested or you feel ill, let the technician know so we can make you more comfortable.
Some potential candidates are people with diabetes who have wounds that are slow to heal; people with wounds that haven't shown improvement in four weeks; people with certain bone and skin infections; people with radiation injuries; and people with compromised or failing skin grafts or flaps.
Do I have to go somewhere else for these treatments?
No, you'll come here to the Wound Healing Center for treatment. Your therapy will be supervised by a specially-trained physician and monitored by a technician each day.
How many HBO treatments will I need?
The number of HBO treatments is not pre-set because each person responds differently to the therapy. The average number of treatments required to heal a patient with a problem wound is 20 to 40.
For most chronic wounds, HBO therapy each weekday is sufficient.
Medicare has approved coverage for HBO therapy for many types of chronic nonhealing wounds. Most private insurance companies follow Medicare's guidelines, as well. We will review your insurance plan with you before your therapy starts to make sure you know what your costs will be.
No, the treatment is very safe. Your Wound Healing Center has very strict procedures that assure your safety and make your treatment comfortable. Before your first treatment, you will be given a thorough orientation.
What can I do during HBO therapy? Can I read a book or newspaper?
Each chamber is equipped with its own television so that you can watch TV or a movie during your treatment. You may not bring anything in the chamber with you, including books and newspapers. Many patients simply use the time to catch up on some well-deserved rest.
Are there any bathroom facilities in the chamber?
No, however it is possible to take a bedpan or urinal in with you during your treatment. The staff can finish the treatment early, if required.
Interestingly enough, most hyperbaric patients do not suffer from claustrophobia. This could be due to either the large size of the chamber or the fact that it has a clear acrylic shell. From inside the chamber, it is possible to see out in all directions. If you still feel anxious about your treatment, the hyperbaric physician can prescribe medication that will relax you and make your treatment less stressful.

According to a series of announcements, green light was already given to the Darlington Point Solar Farm with a capacity of 275 megawatts. It is to be constructed in New South Wales in Australia. This does not come as a surprise as solar panels on the Gold Coast prices dip down following an increase in demand. It is only a matter of time before the whole of Australia turns to solar power as their main source of renewable energy.
The financial aspect of the solar farm has already been finalized along with the building contract. They have also put a lid on the solar supply contract as well as the Power Purchase Agreement. Each of these finalization has been announced in a series of announcements.
The financial closure was made between Octopus Investments, most experience solar investor in Europe, and Edify Energy which is the leading renewable energy company in Australia. They have agreed to a funding of AU$450 million for the Darlington Point Solar Farm. Once the project is finished, it will bring home the title of the largest solar power station in the entire country until such time a bigger one is constructed. The structure as well as the development of the project was undertaken by Edify Energy therefore the company gets to keep the 275 MW project’s equity stake.
According to the developer, the construction of the solar farm will start in March while it will start its regular operation by 2020. When it does, 600,000 tons of CO2 will be displaced while 685,000 MW per hour of clean energy will be generated annually. This amount can sustain power to approximately 115,000 residential properties. The project is estimated to open around 400 job vacancies and various opportunities for the nearby communities.
John Cole, the chief executive of Edify Energy, said that the company is excited to be adding another milestone to their portfolio. As the country is experiencing a rise in demand for solar energy and solar panels on the Gold Coast prices are starting to climb down, more and more homes in Australia will be powered by clean energy in the years to come.

As a psychiatry intern at a Mumbai hospital, I evaluated a middle-aged man who wore a red hat, Hawaiian print shirt and gold chains. Armed with enthusiasm, curiosity and a little theoretical knowledge of the subject, I sat down for what was to become one of the most interesting interviews of my training.
He greeted me cheerfully and talked about his appointment with the Prime Minister, his successful business ventures and the half-done film he was directing. He said he had a scheme to discuss with the PM that would end poverty and corruption in our country . He said he had been granted special powers by the universe for this mission. He also said that he did not need much sleep, was feeling very energetic and had many ideas to improve the world.
On speaking with his wife, I found following a setback in business, he had become irritable and then euphoric. He hardly slept but continued feeling very energetic, took up new projects, but did not complete them. He became more irritable, angry and even abusive , as 'people did not believe him' and started neglecting his family, work and health; this was interspersed with periods of euphoria and a sense of extreme well-being . This is when he was brought to the hospital.
Even to my relatively untrained mind, it was not very difficult to make a diagnosis: bipolar mood disorder (previously known as 'manic depression' ), in which a person goes through cyclical periods of feeling euphoric, energetic, grandiose, expansive or irritable (read manic episode) with periods of sadness of mood, low energy, lack of enthusiasm and low self-esteem (read depressive episode). It is like being on a thrilling high and then in a state of extreme gloom.
Bipolar disorder is characterised by a distinct period of abnormal mood, which could be either euphoric, expansive or irritable, accompanied by symptoms such as easy distractibility , inflated self-esteem , grandiose ideas, excessive talkativeness, racing thoughts, need for less sleep than usual and increase in goal-directed activity. For example , taking on too many projects at the same time; poor judgement leading to reckless behavior, such as spending sprees, reckless driving or promiscuity and denial that anything is wrong. When this lasts for at least a week and affects the person's day to day functioning, it is called a manic episode.
What causes bipolar disorder ? Why is it that some individuals suffer these extreme ups and downs during their lives? We are far from having all the answers.
Research suggests that bipolar disorder can be inherited . Excessively high or low levels of neurotransmitters (chemicals produced by brain cells or neurons) such as serotonin , norepinephrine and dopamine , an imbalance in neurotransmitter levels, or a change in the sensitivity of receptors on the nerve cells can cause bipolar disorder.
Acommon misconception is that stress or environmental factors cause the illness. Stressful life events (such as a death in the family, loss of a job, relationship difficulties , child birth, etc.) can certainly trigger the onset of bipolar disorder. But once the illness begins, it is the underlying biological and psychological processes which keep it active and are the cause of the illness.
My first patient with bipolar disorder responded well to medication and counselling sessions. Over time, he developed awareness regarding his illness (often absent during the 'high' phase). He visited the clinic every fortnight with afamily member for follow-up sessions and did progressively better over the following year. He later resumed running his business, which continued to be fairly successful . A fascinating aspect about bipolar disorder is its association with creativity.
Research has shown that individuals with bipolar are as likely to be creative and function exceptionally well, as they are likely to be dysfunctional . News channel CNN founder Ted Turner, psychologist Kay Jamison and actress Catherine Zeta Jones have talked openly about being bipolar. Picasso's 'pink' and 'blue' periods are well known. While one should refrain from romanticizing an illness that involves immense suffering, it is evident that some individuals with bipolar disorder can lead extraordinarily productive and creative (if trying) lives.
If you are reading this and wondering if you have bipolar disorder, please note that (thankfully) not everyone who is energetic, creative and takes up many projects is bipolar ! Bipolar disorder spans a wide range of symptoms and needs a thorough assessment for a diagnosis.
I find it heartening to see family members often bring printed information on the subject with a set of questions to be answered. Research on mood disorders across various cultures shows that a supportive family environment significantly improves the outcome in bipolar disorder.

The widely publicised blog site by hacker “stryde.hax” has detailed documents found in search engine caches that suggest He Kexin’s real birth year to be 1994. All of the links to the documents have been rapidly disappearing from live sites, sparking concerns of internet censorship.
Concerns? Of censorship? Regarding top-secret Chinese Olympic stuff? Consider our eyebrows raised. Meanwhile, who IS this stryde.hax fellow? We suspect he’s an American patriot deep somewhere within the People’s Republic — most likely hiding out in a bunker, his walls covered in Nastia Liukin posters. We salute him.

That is a question which Jeff Wells at Rigorous Intuition 2.0 has been asking . . and offering answers to . . for several years now. Among the other things he writes about.
Cool! I’ve got to check him out. There’s much more where that came from. In general, Satanists are into hedonism and serving themselves. That doesn’t mean they’re devil worshippers but selfishness can lead to bad things. They are Ayn Rand’s most devout disciples. I think LaVey must have learned a lot from Rand.
serious (no joke) satanism as well as other coherent systems of Philosophical Immoralism among the upper classes is called . . .
“The Military-Occult Complex, ritual abuse/mind control, and “High Weirdness” ” .
I realise I shouldn’t start barking like a pointer dog ( ” Wow look at this! Wow look at this! WowWowWow!”). And I can almost help myself but not quite, so I will just post a clickylink to one of the blogposts called: The Clown At Midnight, posted in 2006.
By the way, America has some real creepy religions which have nothing to do with those fuddy duddy old Three Abrahamic Faiths.
Behold! . . . The Temple of Set.
Season 9, Episode 4 of South Park had a plot line in which Satan’s Sith said, “We’ll just do what we always do. Use the Republicans.” I have tremendous ambivalence about South Park, but once in while they hit it out of the park.
Mark Twain wrote that Satan was the spiritual leader of half of the human race and the political leader of all of it. Of course Macchiavelli wrote that appearance is more important than reality because appearance bewcomes reality … or President of the United States cause that is all the man has … appearance. Well, Macchiavelli never directly wrote about Obama and the Obots but he called it hundreds oif years early.
pre-adult material can “go critical” if gathered together into big enough masses. The Obama campaign engineers and the Democrat/DNC Party Lords worked to demoderate and decontrol this highly unstable and fissile adolescent material into deployable critical masses which were then dropped or launched wherever a “political neutron bomb effect” was desired. If my suspicion is correct, primary blame falls upon the Obama campaign engineers and the DNC Party Lords for assembling and weaponising these decontrolled demoderated masses of unstable fissile adolescent material.

Cultural objects out of bronze are art and culture monuments of a distict character. They have a long history, dating back almost a thousand years; the first ones with Christian motifs originate in the 11th century. The casting technique in Old Russia was widely-spread and in use for the manufacture of Christian cultural objects after the orthodox church was established in Russia. They are distinguished by a compositional opulence, by the diversity of deco- rative techniques and by numerous iconographical motifs.
You will find here only a small selection of our bronze-icons. If you don't find here the one you are looking for, don't hesitate to get in contact with us, because we have about 150 more of these very interesting bronze-icons for your choice on stock.

Today The Kandinsky resembles a sea plane, the kind suitable for only a dozen passengers maximum. But my cabin hasn’t changed shape, and the outside is visible from the porthole. The crew assure me that my own room, and indeed the rooms of the hundreds of other passengers, are now invisible, but still there.
The icebergs are long gone, and we zoom over rocky islands and tiny fishing boats not dissimilar from Greece. Only here the men and woman catch violet squid with a hundred tentacles, their fishing lines spun from gold. Lozowick cannot be far.
I will reveal the results of my experiment next time, but for now here’s a report on how my first gig went. I originally wanted something truly Nadadian for this blog entry, but things worked out to include both!
My show took place in the theatre, though I would have been much happier with the bar. The ceiling of the venue is stunning, even by the standards of The Kandinsky. Dolphins splash through the waves, below storms decorated in such detail they must be imagination rather than hand painted. If I was in the crowd I would stare up at the tableaux rather than worry about whatever act was on. Behind the stage is a huge window, revealing the islands, and the clouds that drift past in various shapes and sizes. A giant turtle maybe, or a cat circled up on a sofa.
The theatre was about half full, fifty or sixty in the crowd maximum. Again, I’ve no idea how this works in terms of us taking the shape of sea plane. Most passengers knew each other by this point, and a wall of chat greeted my walk on.
No one came to Nadada for ventriloquism. I can’t believe there is still a market for original acts, when if you stay long enough you can create whatever you want. But apparently you cannot fake originality and dedication. Someone described it to me like a world of robots who admire the imperfect skill of human athletes.
The first ten minutes of our routine went down with a good dollop of laughter, and they stopped talking at least. I mixed in some classic material with some observational stuff about arriving. There were still some people at the back who did not engage, and spent the time sculpting new clouds for the horizon, but in general the room followed along.
Then at the end of one line, when The Butter Mouse talked about the dangers of swallowing glitter, the crows went silent. It wasn’t offensive or anything like that, but they all shut up. I have died before on stage of course, but never have an audience looked like I committed murder.
I was about to dig my way out the malaise with my usual trick of saying it was Butter Mouse’s fault, when the thunder of breaking china drowns out any potential apology. A great white shape rockets past the window. Teapot spouts and mug handles dotted the surface of the skin. Ragged strands of seaweed stick between broken serving platters. An Aynsley hallmark was imprinted on a gleaming fan blade the size of broadsword.
Now I know this was an Archipenko snake, but at the moment the clanking beast was death. I dropped the mike, and crashed to the floor, the Butter Mouse clutched to my chest.
For such a long time, the shipwreck was one of the worst events a human could eve happen. This is why you find so many in Shakespeare. That hasn’t stopped them occurring in the hundreds, and the skeletons of many litter coral reefs and coves.
Something that often survives the shipwrecks is the crockery. There are plates left over from the Titanic you can eat your breakfast off. And even if they break, these are items designed not to react to water. They can and will last for centuries.
Thousands of fragments and dozens of intact pieces filtered through to Nadada through the cave networks throughout the Earth. Somewhere deep in this new world, they began to fix together. They began to breed.
Now some of them are longer than tube trains, and they patrol these waters. Nothing to worry about, but they are alarming if you don’t expect them to leap past, their china blinding in the sunlight.
Which is why I ended up on the floor, staring up at the astonishing ceiling My fall got the biggest laugh of the night. We riffed on the madness Nadada to a twenty minute finish, and a decent round of applause.
There are well over a hundred more gigs to go on this tour, and so these surprises are to be excepted. But I will take a giant snake made of porcelain over a Christmas audience or stag do any day.
A Year In Nadada: Week Four- She Moves!!!

Four days after the end of the war with Turkey, on 3 November 1918, the town of Mosul was entered and occupied by British troops, and the area of British occupation was held to extend over the whole of the Mosul wilayet. Kurdish nationalist groups in exile outside Turkey, and local leaders in Kurdistan had long been asking for some sort of separate status for the area, and saw the defeat of the Turks and the occupation of Mosul by Britain as a golden opportunity for pressing their claims. In Iraq, two British officers with long experience of Kurdish affairs, E.E. Soane and E.W.C. Noel were instructed immediately to begin negotiations with local leaders. The Civil Commissioner in Baghdad recommended to London on 30 October 1918 that a central council of chiefs for Southern Kurdistan should be set up ‘under British auspices', and after thee weeks in the area Noel recommended the establishment of a Kurdish state extending as far North as Van in Eastern Anatolia (some 90 miles north of the present Turco-Iraq frontier). In mid-November, Shaikh Mahmud Barzinji, head of one of the leading saiyid families in the region was appointed qaimmaqam of Sulaimaniya.
The unity which the Turkish defeat had produced among the Kurds of Turkey and Iraq was shortlived; Noel reported in the Spring of 1919 that Kurdish solidarity in central Anatolia had been based largely on fears that the Allies would exact retribution for the displacement and destruction of the Armenians and Assyrians, and now that this seemed no longer likely to materialize, disputes had broken out among rival tribes, none of whom would accept the overlordship of any single leader. The geography of the region, mountainous terrain with fertile valleys, together with traditional tribal rivalries, made the preservation of ‘order' on British Indian lines virtually impossible. The complications of Kurdish politics seem almost endless, but the difficulties were increased by British predilections for the construction of tidy administrative units, governed by ‘reliable' or subsidised local leaders.
The chief difficulty was that the whole concept of self-determination required general agreement in the recognition of suitable representatives for the ‘Kurdish people'. The Kurds of the central area of Northern Iraq, around Dohuk, ‘Amadiya and Zakho, and those of Barzan and Arbil did not accept that Shaikh Mahmud's overloardship of Sulaimaniya entitled him to be recognized by them as King of Kurdistan; Mahmud was in fact unable to exercise any authority over Halabja and Penjwin, both only twenty miles from his capital. Another group of claimants, the Badr-Khans, an ancient Kurdish family exiled to Constantinople since the mid-nineteenth century, may have had the ear of the British authorities there, but were no longer able to command support locally, and this was also true of the Baban family, long resident in Baghdad.
The truth seems to have been that, had they been given the opportunity, the Kurds would probably have preferred to have been left to make their own administrative arrangements. They welcomed their freedom from been prepared to accept nominal British suzerainty, this can be explained more by their wishing to ensure that the Turks stayed away than by any active desire to be controlled by Britain. Further, the desire for Kurdish autonomy did not, because of traditional tribal and clan rivalries, at this stage produce any coherent movement towards Kurdish unity. By May 1919 the British authorities were forced to remove Shaikh Mahmud, who had succeeded in alienating almost all those upon whom he had relied to maintain his position in Sulaimaniya. A rival leader, Saiyid Taha of Neri, a descendant of Ubaidullah, the leader of the great Kurdish revolt of 1896, now appeared. Claiming to be able to head an independent Kurdish state under British protection. But it was clear that he also had too narrow a basis of support to ensure him any lasting success. The treaty of Sevres, which had included provision for an independent Kurdistan, was soon nullified by the revival of Turkish strength in the summer of 1920.
Late in March 1920 the British Cabinet authorized a public statement about the Mesopotamian Mandate. Britain would accept it, and Mesopotamia would include Mosul. This decision was welcome news in Baghdad, but its significance was not at all welcome in Kurdistan.. It is worth remarking that the decision antedates by some five months the statement in the Treaty of Sevres that a plebiscite would be held in the area. From that time onwards it has always been clear that the Kurds in Iraq have never wanted to be governed from Baghdad, but it has nevertheless always been essential, in terms of first British, and later Iraq, policy that they should be. Safeguards could be introduced: guarantees that the Kurdish language would be maintained and Kurdish officials employed, even the direct administration of Sulaimaniya by the British High Commissioner; but these paper promises were not enough. Even the most minimal attempts by H.M. Government to secure some sort of special treatment for the Kurds were vigorously resisted by the Iraq Government. By the early 1920's the situation in the area presented more problems than before: it was reported from Sulaimaniya that public opinion that would oppose ‘even a conditional unity with Iraq Government' while Dokuh, ‘Amadiya and Zakho would not object to incorporation within Iraq. Rowanduz was still occupied by Turkish irregulars, while Arbil would accept a mutasarrif from Baghdad if closely supervised by the British Political Officer. No Uniform treatment of the whole area seemed possible, but separate regimes for each area would naturally arouse other, so far dormant. Issues; the Turcoman population of Kirkuk, about to vote solidly against Faisal in the referendum was reported in 1921 as ‘solidly anti-Arab…though not anti-British.
The terms of this invitation seem to have encouraged Shaikh Mahmud to listen more attentively to the emissaries who had been visiting him with promises of co-operation from Turkey, although he was at the same time losing ground in his own bailiwick of Sulaimaniya. There is strong evidence of disagreement between Noel and Edmonds over whether to continue to support Mahmud; reports received in the Residency were both contradictory and acrimonious, and it is difficult to get a clear picture of events in the area. What does emerge is that by the end of December a band of Turkish irregulars under one Euz Demir had gained ascendancy over Shaikh Mahmud. Noel reported from Arbil that Mahmud was definitely opposed to any form of Iraqi suzerainty, that he was gaining more support in Arbil and Kirkuk and that he was financing himself by means of the tobacco excise.
Attacks by combined Turkish and Kurdish forces continued through the autumn and winter of 1923 and into the spring of 1924. However, by the middle of the year it was apparent that British forces had the upper hand, especially after the re-occupation of Sulaimaniya in July 1924. In a final attempt to prove themselves a force to be reckoned with, Turkish troops crossed the Hazil Su in the autumn and attacked Assyrian settlements in the vicinity of ‘Amadiya and Dohuk; on this occasion the Turks were not simply encouraging irregulars, but were employing Turkish army units. The Air Officer Commanding noted that had an attack on Zakho not been frustrated by prompt action, Mosul would have been seriously at risk. It seems that the Turks were determined to make the most of the delay between the appointment of the Frontier Commission and the plotting of the status quo frontier, which lasted from 30 September to 15 November 1924.
We have already noticed that both the British and Iraq Governments wanted the inclusion of Mosul within Iraq States; it will be equally clear that the Kurdish inhabitants of the area were at best indifferent and at worst positively hostile to this aim. The Turks and the Kurds took advantage of the delay in the settlement of the frontier to keep the area as turbulent as possible: the Kurds, to gain maximum advantage in terms of control, and the Turkish suzerainty. Neither the Turks nor the authorities in Baghdad could afford to allow independence or even autonomy to be granted in the area; the Turks were fearful of the consequences of an unruly Kurdish state on their borders, and the Iraqis did not with to single out areas for any form of special treatment which would limit authority of the Government.
By June 1924, a few days after the ratification of the 1922 Treaty by the Constituent Assembly, direct negotiations over the frontier between Britain and Turkey broke down in Constantinople, and the dispute was referred to the arbitration of the League to investigate local conditions and generally to sound out local opinion, to discover whether the inhabitants wished to stay with Iraq or go over to Turkey. The activities of the commission were confined to the southern, or Iraqi, side of the status quo frontier, the so-called Brussels line.
The commissioners commenced their work with a series of meetings and interviews in London n late November, and did not arrive in Iraq until early in January 1925. We have seen that Turkish pressure increased throughout the autumn of 1924; Shaikh Mahmud's activities in the vicinity of Sulaimaniya had occasioned the bombing of the town by the R.A.F. in November, a decision which occasioned some unease in London. The area was therefore still in a state of unrest at the time of the Commission's visit, though the coming of winter had forced an end to serious campaigning. In the course of a visit lasting from January to March, the Commission head evidence in Baghdad, and made extensive tours of the Mosul wilayet under close British supervision; at one point the members threatened to resign if facilities for snap visit to areas were not made available. They did in fact manage to travel to most of the more important centres.
It emerged fairly early in the Commission's visit that its members were likely to recommend, in some form or other, an extension of the British connection. Dobbs wrote to the Colonial Office at the end of February that he was convinced that Iraq would be awarded the Mosul wilayet if British tutelage could be extended ‘far beyond the Protocol period', # in other words beyond the previously stipulated four years after conclusion of peace with Turkey. However, the Commissioners continued their interviews and tours, causing local political officers to complain of ‘paralysis' of administration and the ‘well-nigh impossible strain' caused by their visits. The fact was that by early 1925 the more accessible parts of the Mosul wilayet had been under direct and effective government control for over six years, and integration of administration and services was almost total: six years under Anglo-Iraqi control had made the prospect of Turkish reoccupation seem remote, and on the whole unwelcome. Furthermore, the Commission seem to have considered that the welfare of the Christian minority population of the area, and, apparently, of the Kurds, would be better served by the Iraqi than by the Turkish Government. It is difficult to gauge the Commission's attitude in the matter of the exploitation of the Mosul oilfields; Count Teleki's intervention has already been mentioned, and it is a fact that the concession rights to the Turkish Petroleum Company was signed by the Cabinet at the very end of the Commission's visit.
There was some delay in the acceptance of the Report: Turkish diplomacy succeeded in referring the matter for final settlement to the Permanent Court of International Justice at The Hague. However, the Commission's Report was not to be reversed, and by 18 July 1926 it had been accepted by all parties concerned.
In the Chamber, the Treaty was passed unanimously on 18 January 1926; there were 58 votes in favour, and 19 abstentions, corresponding to Yasin al-Hashimi's followers associated with his Hizb al Sha'b (People's Party). A rumour reported from Hilla suggested that the British had arranged this token opposition to avoid criticism that they had created an artificial unanimity.
Apart from the stipulations on Kurdistan, which were underlined in the course of an impressive speech by the Prime Minister, ‘Abd ak-Muhsin al-Sa'dun, on 21 January, the new Treaty included provisions for reviewing the Anglo-Iraqi Treaty of October 1922 every four years. On the occasion of each review, H.M. Government undertook to consider either recommending Iraq for admission to the League of Nations, or, if this was not judged possible, to consider amending the Military and Financial Agreements attached to the 1922 Treaty. The first of these reviews would fall due, in accordance with the Protocol of 1923, in the spring of 1927. It is worth pointing out that the 1926 Treaty in no way contradicts the Frontier Commission's Report; both documents stipulate that the Mandate shall continue for 25 years, but equally, both contain clauses providing for the admission of Iraq to the League of Nations before that date. Naturally, King Faisal and the Baghdad politicians seized on the ‘escape' clause, and began at once to work for the earliest possible entry of Iraq into the League.

No one can make clutter as interesting — and desirable — as author/illustrator Chris Gall, and he does it again in his latest oversized picture book, Awesome Dawson.
Dawson is a boy-inventor who believes everything can be used again, and he tests his hypothesis by doing such clever things as turning oil pans into dinosaur heads and bicycle handle bars into antennae for toy robots.
Dawson’s favorite recycled toy is an adorable little cow head fastened to a grocery cart wheel, which he christens “Mooey.” When the book opens, Dawson is experimenting with hilarious new bodies for Mooey (like a crab body, a jack-in-the-box body and a snowman body that’s melting fast). Unfortunately, Dawson’s Mom doesn’t see the importance of choosing a new body for Mooey. She has only two things on her mind: Whether Dawson has finished his chores, and if he hasn’t, when he plans to do so.
To please his Mom, Dawson invents a robot vacuum cleaner to do his chores, but when he uses dried cat food for its brains, the robot goes haywire and threatens to vacuum the entire town into oblivion. Suddenly, it’s up to Dawson to find a way to stop his new invention, and he must only use recyclable materials to do it.
Awesome Dawson is an imaginative little story that will have children chuckling at the illustrations and pondering new ways to recycle at the same time.
Gall’s writing is riddled with spot-on kiddie humor, and his trademark drawings are bright, colorful and cluttered with junk (albeit adorable junk) from the first page to the last. In other words, his book is a young child’s delight.
This book is sure to be a fun addition to any classroom or personal library.

Hiring a photographer can be overwhelming. There are so many options and hard to know what the right fit for you is in this season, especially if you have never hired a photographer before. Here are just a few things to consider before you hire your next photographer.
Chances are your friends or family have hired a photographer in your area. They may have had amazing an amazing experience or a subpar experience. Thats why you ask your friends. More than likely they will give you their honest opinion without bias. I wouldn’t recommend running to a local moms group on facebook and asking for the “best photographer that won’t cost an arm and a leg” or a “good photographer that won’t break the bank” I wouldn’t even ask for a photographer that is “reasonable” because what is reasonable to you may not be reasonable to the next person. Also when you ask for those types of recommendations, chances are you aren’t getting the names of seasoned photographers (we will talk budget in a bit) or even probably the best photographers in your area. I’m not just talking skill I’m also talking licensed business, customer experience etc. Again, ask your friends. I bet you would be surprised to find that you have a photographer in your circle that you didn’t even realize. Why wouldn’t you want to support a friend or a friend of a friend?
Ok, at this point we aren’t talking editing. We will get to that. What I am talking about is, are they a traditional portrait photographer? A Lifestyle photographer? Is their style more Documentary? Blah blah blah…. Do I sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown? This is important so listen up. These words and “styles” may be meaningless to you at this point but I can tell you it is really important when it comes to receiving the types of images that you want and having the type of experience that you are expecting. A traditional portrait photographer is what many people think of when they are considering their Christmas cards (there is other reasons to hire a photographer than Christmas cards, thats for another post, I’ll get off my soap box). This is the “posed” everyone smiling at the camera, flattering, eyes open, print large hang in your house kind of photo. Many photographers will incorporate this type of photography in their sessions (and they should) because this is what many people are looking for. But I’ll be blunt with you. This is not the photography that typically feeds the artist soul. Moving on. Another style to consider is the Lifestyle Photographer. Often you will find them photographing people in their homes or doing some sort of activity or adventure to tell a story through their images. Their can be some posing involved but their is also more movement, connection and interaction between the subjects. This is where emotion starts to shine through in the images. Between the posing, games, direction it can feel less awkward and contrived for the clients. Clients feel a little more at ease and relaxed feeling as though they are allowed to be more themselves in the images. Finally, Documentary. These images can seem more gritty and raw. The goal of a documentary photographer is to not interfere in any way. They will walk into a space to capture the people and place without manipulating much of anything. They can be found documenting births, in home family sessions, out on the streets. Their goal is to capture what is happening in the most real and honest way. Now considering these types of photography you will find that some photographer will bend more one way or the other. I would argue that you should find a photographer that has a healthy mix of all three. With a mix of the three you will get the honest connection of your family, all the emotions with some traditional portraits sprinkled in and still have relaxed and enjoyable time as a family.
Well. Lets talk about the elephant in the room, shall we? Yeah budget. It has to come up. I won’t go into it too much and I’ll try to keep my opinion mostly to myself on this one (insert winkie face). I get it. Money is ALWAYS something that needs to be considered with hiring someone for a service, especially when it isn’t life or death. This would be considered a luxury item for some and not a necessity. Bills need to be paid (hello water bill in Colorado, YEOUCH), Retirement needs to be saved for, not to mention the kids activities and eventually college tuition (eesh). So yes you should consider budget when you are looking to hire a photographer. What I will say to you is this: Just like in every service industry, you get what you pay for. Want a cheap hair cut? Pay $20 and get a chop job… you can’t complain right? Want the lowest price for a water heater install and it breaks in a week, hmmm. Same goes for photography. Yes you can hire a photographer for less than $100. In fact I saw someone list their prices for $20 for an hour. WHAT? Such a good deal! No. A photographer that has been in the business for a while, who has subscriptions for their website, gallery delivery, customer management system, licenses and insurance, pays taxes, invests in their education and equipment (among other things) cannot charge you so little. This is not a hobby, it is a business. I’m not going to tell you the price point to look for. But I will say, consider your budget, consider what photographs really mean to you in terms of preserving your memories and your family and look for a photographer that you like and trust. If they are out of your budget you can humbly look for another OR (and this is my favorite) save for that dream photographer and hire them when you are ready. I have a few I am saving for myself.
I said I would get into editing style…. So here we are! Time and again I see photographers mulling over a email they need to respond to from a client who was unhappy with how the images were edited. There are a LOT of different editing styles out there. Not only that, editing styles shift like trends in the clothing industry (hello, fanny packs and scrunchies are back). I think this complaint happens when someone receives a recommendation from a friend and then hires said photographer before ever looking at their website or other social media accounts to truly understand what their editing style is. Does the photographer shoot film or digital. Is their editing heavy handed or more timeless? GO LOOK AT THEIR SITE! It shouldn’t have to be said, but this is why I always point inquiring clients back to my site to have a look. The last think I would want is for someone to hire me, get my normal style and possibly my best work, just to have them disappointed because they were expecting a heavy handed edit. Thats not me. You like that style? Thats great! I will gladly point you to some of my friends who do beautiful work in that style. Different strokes for different folks. I don’t expect everyone to want what I offer. And I’m thankful that not everyone delivers what I deliver. Photography would be very boring if we were all doing the same thing. So do your research!
So you found the perfect photographer, you set aside the money to hire them, their style and editing is right up your alley… now, why did you hire them? Is it just for the Christmas card (come on, there is more) is it because you and your family just got through a really hard season and you are just so happy to be on the other side? Did you bring a new member in the the family? A Birth? An adoption? Are you a newly married blended family with kids from previous marriages? Or are you just so in aw of how quickly your littles are growing that your heart aches to freeze them in time? Whatever the reason, go into the session knowing what it is that you want captured and communicate that to the photographer (I’m not talking about a shot list pulled from Pinterest). As story tellers we want to know your story and capture it well. Go into the session with intention, then love on your family and enjoy yourself and you shouldn’t be disappointed.
This is all great advice! I love that you put this together for couples planning their wedding!
Excellent advice. It’s so hard to talk to clients about budget when they can go find another “photographer” offering a service for half the price (and often half the quality).
I could not agree more! Absolutely yes!
