Green Thumbs! - Miss Allaire's 1st Grade!
What a great day to begin our garden! Thank you for bringing in seeds, soil, and compost!! | 2019-04-24T08:31:22 | http://twirlingteacher.weebly.com/kinder-blog-1213/green-thumbs |
Honda 09-up CRF450R 7/8" and 1.6" lowering lengths available.
Also Fits The New 06-up KLX250H6F Dual Sport.
Fits: 2012-up two strokes with the linkage style suspension.
KTM/CRF/DRZ/KXF/ RMF/WR/YZF and now for the Kawasaki KLR650/KLX250 dual sport. Honda CRF230/XR250/400/600 and TRX450 Four Wheeler.
1) Raise the motorcycle with a bike stand, milk crate, etc., so the rear wheel is slightly off the ground. Remove the brake pedal return spring and the pinch bolt holding the brake pedal pivot shaft into frame mount. Then remove the brake pedal to allow the front link mounting bolt to come out the right side. Remove the 17 mm nuts from the two link mounting bolts (14 mm heads) and push the front one out the right side and the rear one out the left side. The swingarm may need to be raised slightly to allow the bolts to slide out freely. After removing these two bolts the link will drop out the bottom and your about ready to install the new KoubaLink.
2) The KoubaLink comes with the bearings and seals, so put a little grease inside the two needle bearings first, and then install the "center sleeve" from your old OEM link into the new link. Be sure the center sleeve from your stock link is clean and greased the full length. You are now ready to install the new link by holding it back in place with the bearing end forward and the engraving readable from the right side. After aligning the link eyes with the link mounts, push the mounting bolts back through. You will need to raise the swingarm to get the eyes to line up. Front bolt goes in from the right side and the rear bolt goes in from the left side.
3) After installing the KoubaLink, be sure the grease fitting is facing back and slightly down. *Left side engraving will be upside down. You may want to pump a little grease into that grease fitting now before you torque the mounting bolt nuts as sometimes after tightening the nuts the air will not escape from the bearings and is difficult to get the grease in. Install the 17 mm nuts and torque to approx. 35 lb-ft. *NOTE: Always loosen and tighten the nut, and not the head of the bolt.
4) For the 1.75" laden rear lowering, set the "race sag" (amount of vertical movement of the rear axle FROM no weight to bike weight plus rider weight) at 3.0" with rider in full riding gear, standing on the pegs. This sag adjustment can be changed by turning the two large nuts on top of the rear spring. (More preload = less sag, and less preload = more sag. Turning the spring preload nuts clockwise will increase the preload and visa versa.) The easiest way we have found to change the preload adjustment is to loosen the top jam nut, lube the threads on the shock and turn the spring and all by grasping the bottom of the spring. It will turn easier if the rear wheel is off the ground.
5) The front fork tubes can be slid up in the triple clamps until they almost touch the under side of the handle bars. We do not recommend over 3/4" of the fork tubes showing above the top triple clamp not counting the thickness of the fork caps. If the front pushes or will not turn quick enough we recommend lessening the rear sag rather than sliding the fork tubes up farther than the 3/4" showing. | 2019-04-19T04:42:35 | https://koubalink.com/Honda%20CRF250F%20%202019-up.html |
Response - It is about how you respond to a particular piece of literature. In order to respond, you have to feel the tone and behavior of the narrator. Put in question all the actions the main character does. For instance, if the character is rude, you should investigate what led him to be rude.
Personal experience - Another characteristic of the personal response paper is to add experience similar to the one discussed in the paper but it happened to you. In other words, to relate the paper to your own world.
This is the place where you can find reliable papers. School library is a good source of papers, that are probably reviewed by teachers, and that’s why they are reliable.
Look for a book with samples, or only samples by other students, they will be really helpful.
This is a good advice, but not all teachers and tutors are willing to give you a sample paper. They will give you some advice regarding the structure, but as long as you don’t see a finished work, it will be abstract to you, unless you are good at writing and meet your teacher’s/ tutor’s expectations without reading any samples.
This is probably the least reliable source, but you can find a lot of essays there. Consider only pages of universities and schools. Talking about these sites, you can look for your online school library prior any others. You can find vast number of examples of papers on the Internet. Be picky and selective in order to avoid reading junk.
No matter the source you choose, it is important for you to start from your teacher/ tutor, then continue with your school library and leave the Internet last. You will definitely find good samples this way. | 2019-04-23T20:50:14 | http://www.celiacaroarteducation.com/personal-response-paper |
Go ahead, type in marketing, or finance, or philosoply, cooking, or even Buddah and you'll find wikipedia comes up on the first page (often in the number 1 position) on a Google search.
Ok...they say this is for the good because, well, it's the wisdom of crowds. (Although I question the wisdom of the people who vote to always pick the best politicians!) But I'm not convinced.
Are you as troubled as I? | 2019-04-19T16:43:37 | https://www.marketingprofs.com/opinions/2007/16303/the-wisdom-of-wikipedia |

For all those out there that love to eat spam, here's a recipe for you.
Ewwwww, DFG! You'd have to really be a spam lover for that one! LOL!
Dragonflygurl wrote: For all those out there that love to eat spam, here's a recipe for you.
sounds like it would make a delicious dip with corn chips!!
But you've got have a strong stomach to view it as there are some really gross things on there recipe wise. I think the spam one is far less gross.
okay some of those are just truly gross. when my sister was pregnant she had this mad craving for McDonald's hamburgers dipped in chinese sweet and sour sauce..we forgave her, her nasty habits as she was expecting but oh lord..ewwwww!
Oh that's nothing Ketana, at least it was food. One of my sisters friends when she expecting, used to drive down the road, get out of her car and break bits of tree bach off and eat it. Oh how gross is that. If her children are now a bit woody, lol.
Shrimp and Crab Meat Au Gratin..
I am so making this next weekend!
Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over very low heat. When the butter is completely melted, stir in the flour with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 1 minute over low heat, stirring constantly. Slowly add the milk. Using a whisk, stir briskly until you have a smooth sauce, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne and whisk again. Switch to the wooden spoon and keep stirring the white sauce until it is completely smooth and thickened, about the consistency of mayonnaise. Remove from the heat.
Bring 2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan and add the shrimp. When the water returns to a boil, cook the shrimp for 1 minute. Drain immediately. Roughly chop the shrimp and put in a large mixing bowl. Add the crabmeat and, with your hands, toss gently to mix.
Pour the sauce over the seafood. With a large spoon, gently combine, taking care not to break apart the crabmeat.
Spray an 8-inch square disposable aluminum foil pan with vegetable oil cooking spray (there will be a little left over for a tasty lunch for the cook) or use an 11 by 7-inch casserole dish. Pour the mixture into the pan. Place the grated cheese on top, completely covering the seafood mixture. Wrap the uncooked casserole securely with plastic wrap, then with aluminum foil. Place the pan into a plastic freezer bag and seal. Freeze. Prepare a label with these instructions: Completely thaw in refrigerator. When ready to bake, remove the foil and plastic wrap. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, until bubbly. If serving immediately, bake in a 350 degree F oven uncovered, for about 25 minutes, until bubbly.
Need a cake recipe that has a KAPOW effect? This is the one..simply beautiful!
Red Velvet Cake by Sylvia Wood.
For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 2 (9-inch) cake pans. In a medium bowl or on a piece of waxed paper, sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together sugar and butter. Beat in eggs one at a time. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk. Beat in food coloring and vinegar, then add vanilla. Spread the batter evenly in the pans. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Turn out onto a rack to cool.
For the frosting: In a large bowl, cream the cream cheese and butter. Beat in confectioners' sugar until fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Stir in pecans. Use frosting to fill and ice cake. Slice and serve on individual plates.
What's a recipe thread if it doesn't have a least one recipe for brownies! Shame on us! Here's an easy one and you can really BAM IT UP with some nuts, or marshmellows or even dried fruit!
Melt the butter and chocolate together in a medium pan over very low heat. Stir together and remove from the heat. Add sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in the flour and salt. Add nuts. Spread the mixture into a buttered 8-inch square pan. Bake until set, about 40 minutes. Cool before cutting.
ya know Pepperidge Farm makes cookies shaped like chesspieces..named oddly enough Chessmen..but I wouldn't suggest playing a game of chess with them as they go better with a nice tall glass of milk!
1. Cut off the root of the leeks and any tough green leaves, cut into 5cm lengths and wash well.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and the butter in a frying pan and when foaming add the leeks and toss well. Season and cook gently for 10 minutes. Sprinkle over the sugar and use to coat the leeks as it dissolves. Pour over enough water to cover the bottom of the pan.
3. Continue to gently cook uncovered for a further 15-20 minutes until the leeks are soft. You may need to add a little more water if the liquid evaporates.
4. Meanwhile, beat the chicken breasts between two layers of cling film until double in size. Brush with the remaining olive oil, sprinkle with the dried rosemary and season.
5. Cook the chicken breasts under a pre-heated grill for 3-4 minutes on each side until thoroughly cooked.
6. Add the lemon juice to the leeks and a little more water if necessary to produce enough cooking juices to pour over the chicken. Boil up until slightly thickened.
Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion until soft but not coloured. Add the mince, leeks and carrots and cook, until the meat is nicely browned. Season the meat and add the thyme and parsley.
Stir in the flour and gradually add the stock to the mince. Stir in the tomato puree. Cover and reduce the heat and simmer for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, peel the sweet potatoes and cut into chunks. Place in a pan of boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Drain and return to the pan, but away from the heat. Add the butter and mash until smooth. Season.
When the mince is cooked, check the seasoning and spoon into four individual oven proof dishes. Spread the mash sweet potato over the meat and sprinkle with the cheese. Bake for 15 minutes at 200c or until the top is beginning to colour brown and piping hot.
You can add a number of vegetable to Shepherd’s pie - sewed, turnip or parsnip.
The topping can also be made with half potatoes and half sweet potato - add a pinch of nutmeg for added interest.
Garlic - A member of the onion and leek family, garlic is one of the most commonly used flavouring ingredients worldwide. With its distinctive flavour and aroma it is especially popular in Asian, Oriental and Mediterranean cuisines. Fresh garlic is harvested and dried to produce the bulbs that are available all year round. Garlic bulbs consist of several individual cloves, which are wrapped in fine papery skin. When buying garlic choose plump succulent bulbs with unblemished skin. Avoid any bulbs that are sprouting.
How To Use - Garlic can be eaten raw or cooked. Raw garlic adds a kick to salad dressings, salsas, dips and spreads. Use raw garlic to make garlic butter to top cooked meat or fish or to spread on bread to make garlic bread. Garlic adds a wonderful flavour to a vast number of savoury dishes from curries, stir-fries and pasta sauces to soups and casseroles. Garlic can also be roasted and served as an accompaniment or garnish for savoury dishes.
How To Prepare - Divide the bulb into individual cloves and remove the papery skin, if required. Use the cloves whole or finely chop with a knife, crush in a garlic press or using a pestle and mortar. To prepare whole garlic bulbs for roasting, simply brush with olive oil.
How To Cook - Garlic can be fried or roasted. To fry garlic, heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and add the garlic, cook over a gentle heat and don't allow the garlic to brown or it will take on a bitter flavour. To roast garlic, preheat the oven to 170C, gas mark 3 and cook for about 45 minutes or until tender. Slice the bulbs in half and use to garnish soups or grilled or roasted meat or fish.
How To Store - Keep in a cool, dry place. | 2019-04-26T15:44:05 | http://lexxverse.com/view_topic.php?id=90&forum_id=6&page=3 |
There is a lot to see in Alaska. Use this a a guide to find the ports of call which are right for you.
Anchorage: Alaska's largest city is both a popular tourist destination and the centre of commerce for the region. Local wildlife museums include the Alaska Zoo and Potter's Marsh, where up to 130 species of waterfowl can be viewed from a boardwalk. Geographical reminders of the 1964 Good Friday Earthquake can be seen at Earthquake Park. To appreciate the wealth of local history, one should visit the Heritage Library and Museum and the Anchorage Museum of History and Art.
A short trip north of town leads to the Eagle River Visitor Centre and the alpine beauty of Chugach State Park. At Eklutna Village Historical Park, highlights include St Nicholas Russian Church and the brightly painted 'spirit houses'. South of Anchorage, visitors can try their luck by panning for gold nuggets at Crow Creek Mine.
College Fjord Scenic Cruising: Some of the best glacier viewing in the state can be seen at College Fjord. Tucked into the northwest corner of Prince William Sound, the fjord boasts the world's largest collection of tidewater glaciers - sixteen, name after Ivy League colleges by the Harriman Expedition that discovered them in 1899.
Denali National Park: This stunning region offers a wide variety of activities including hiking, ice-climbing, wildlife viewing and horseback trekking. Denali is an Athabascan name, which means 'the high one'. At 20,331feet (6197metre), Mount McKinley is the tallest peak in North America, and on a clear day it can be seen from Anchorage, 149 miles (240 kilometres) away. Denali National Park is famous for panoramic views of Mount McKinley and the Alaska Range. A popular day excursion takes tourists on a shuttle bus through the wilderness to see caribou, grizzly bears, wolves and moose.
A fly-in excursion to Fort Yukon, located on the Arctic Circle on the Yukon River, gives tourists a vivid picture of life in Alaska's largest Athabascan village. Throughout the winter, Fairbanks hosts world-class sled-dog races, ice-sculpting competitions and skiing events.
Glacier Bay National Park Senic Cruising: How does it feel when a monumental chunck of ice splits off a glacier and crashes into the sea? The sound is like thunder, and the impact shoots water hundreds of feet into the air. You hold your break as you catch the moment of film. Glacier Bay has more aactively calving glaciers than anywhere else in the world.
Glacier Bay is also home to an amazing assortment of marine life, including humpback whales, sea otters, porpoises and harbor seals.
The number of cruise ships that can enter Glacier Bay are restricted. Holland America and Princess have the majority of ships that can cruise into Glacier Bay National Park.
Inside Passage Cruising: Carved by glaciers and blanketed with majestic hemlock and spruce, Alaska's 'panhandle' rivals Scandinavia for pristine water mountain views. A leisurely cruise among the fjords and forested islands of the Inside Passage takes you into prime habitat for bald eagles, sea lions, porpoise, and whales.
The Inside Passage of southeast Alaska is the home of Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian Indians - you'll see their rich heritage reflected in dramatic totem poles and other Native arts. Russian setters left a legacy on onion-domed churches gleaming with icons and gold. Prospectors, lumberjacks, and fishermen, have added to the complex tapestry of Inside Passage history and culture.
Like the coastal Indians that paddled cedar canoes along Inside Passage waterways, modern travelers use Alaska state ferries to connect port with port. Large and small cruiseships, charter boats, and private yachts call at picturesque towns and scenic wonderlands like Misty Fjords National Monument, Tracy Arm, and Glacier Bay. Highway access from the contiguous states comes at Haines, Skagway, and the friendly ghost town of Hyder, on the British Columbia border.
Juneau: Juneau sprung up as a boomtown in the Klondike Gold Rush and retains its spirit of adventure. Adjacent to Glacier Bay National Park, it offers breathtaking scenery and unequaled hiking as well as kayak opportunities in nearby Glacier Bay. Juneau's gold and mining history is available for buffs at the Last Chance Mining Museum as well as the Treadwell Mining Ruins. The Alaska State Museum also explores Alaska's history and displays Native artifacts and an eagles nest. A full range of restaurants will accommodate any taste. Many hotels and inns are available (although very populated in the summer months) as well as the cabins scattered throughout the National Forests (maintained by the US Forest Service).
Ketchikan:This city is famous for 2 things: salmon and totem poles. Around 14 feet (4 metres) of rain falls each year on this southeastern city. Visitors should not let this put them off, however, as it is here they will find the Saxman and Totem Bight Parks, which contain the world's largest collection of totem poles. The display includes some of the oldest examples in the world, as well as a range of new ones, which are carved by local craftsmen in an open studio. Excursions include a boat or plane trip into the Misty Fjords National Monument. The coastal rain forests and glacial fjords shelter many species of land animals and sea life.
Seattle: Stay in Seattle long enough, locals tell you, and you won’t tan - you’ll rust. However, calling Seattle ‘rainy” can be a bit of a misnomer. Overcast skies and fog can give the impression of rain. Truth be told, Seattle receives less rain than many major American cities – even New York, Chicago and Miami, and it summers are some of the most temperate in the Pacific Northwest. Encased by the glorious mountains of the Olympic and Cascades ranges and bordered by the craggy shoes of the Pacific Ocean, Seattle celebrates the natural exquisiteness of the outdoors.
Seattle, like Phoenix, AZ, seems to have more transplants of people from other states than actual residents. The University of Washington, a hip music scene rooted in the rhythms of Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, and Puget Sound’s majestic outdoors draws students, next-generation hippies and rugged naturalists alike. Conversely, over 2,500 software development firms including giant Microsoft, biotechnology firms and healthcare companies attract professionals from across the world.
Seattle has developed from a quiet port into a cosmopolitan giant. Despite its popularity and reputation as one of America’s most livable cities, it remains unpretentious, even laid-back, and backpacks and briefcases make its scene a highly eclectic one. Fashion, arts and architecture lend to its sophistication, and major sports teams, a renowned performing arts community and a state-of-the-art convention centre attest to its metropolitan magnitude.
From caffeine-laced espresso and painstakingly prepared microbrews to culturally rich street corners and breathtakingly lush settings, Seattle delights and fascinates.
Sitka: One look at lovely Sitka and you'll know why Alexander Baranof, governor of the Russian American Company, decided to build his " castle" here. With views of island-studded waters and stately spruce forests reaching to the water's edge, Sitka is considered Alaska's most beautiful seaside town. Sitka's past is a unique blend of Tlingit culture and Russian history.
The historic and scenic community is situated on Baranof Island, nestled between forested mountains and the great Pacific Ocean, on the outer waters of Alaska's Inside Passage. Sitka offers a combination of Native culture, Russian history, and Alaskan wilderness which will provide a diverse and unequaled experience.
Wildlife adds to Sitka's natural beauty. Our mild climate, rich habitat and relatively low human population make Sitka one of the best places to view wildlife. Nearby waters are a popular feeding ground for humpback whales in the late fall and early spring. Summertime provides a wonderful opportunity to view tufted puffins and other sea birds at St. Lazaria National Wildlife Refuge. While out on the ocean, you may also spot sea otters, sea lions, whales and other marine wildlife.
Sitka lies at the heart of the largest temperate rain forest in the world, the Tongass National Forest. Enjoy the fresh outdoors on well-marked mountain trails. Take to the water for a picturesque boat trip or kayaking adventure among nearby islands or charter a boat to nearby fishing grounds to fish for world-class salmon and halibut.
Skagway: History never gets old in Skagway. Few one-time boomtowns retain the flavor of the gold rush days like Skagway. The Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park boasts restored buildings and Wooden boardwalks that invite you to stroll into the past. Take your time and soak up the local flavor in the colorful taverns and shops. One of my favorites is the Red Onion Saloon, with its honky-tonk piano and costumed barmaids, is a treasure trove of memorabilia, featuring pictures of Klondike Kate, Peahull Annie and other vintage characters.
populations are reflected in the proliferation of ethnic shops and restaurants there.
Of the several museums and galleries, most notable are the Centennial Museum, H. R. MacMillan Planetarium , University of British Columbia's Museum of Anthropology (housing excellent examples of northwest First Nation art and artifacts), Vancouver Art Gallery, Science World (including four galleries of hands-on exhibits) and the Maritime Museum .
More points of interest are Stanley Park, Vancouver Aquarium, the newly-opened Downtown Historic Railway, and the Grouse Mountain Skyride on the north shore. The latter offers views of the city and the fjords of the Pacific coast from 1211m (3974ft). Vancouver is also a comparatively young city with the large University of British Columbia campus. A visit to the extensive Botanical Gardens of the university is recommended.
During the summer Whistler, just north of Vancouver, is a delight for naturalists. In the winter, however, it is the most popular ski resort on the west coast offering an award-winning design with first-class hotels and restaurants. In addition to more than 100 varied ski runs covering two enormous mountains, it has facilities for golf, windsurfing, tennis, mountain biking, river rafting, horse back riding, hiking, gondola and chairlift rides, as well as shopping and cultural entertainment.
Ferries to Vancouver Island pass through the spectacular Gulf Islands. A variety of tours and charter boats are available for island-hopping excursions.
In the east of the province, high in the Rocky Mountains, the huge wilderness areas of Yoho, Kootenay and Glacier National Parks. Here, hiking, angling and rafting trips as well as excellent winter sports facilities are in available. Nearby are the hot-spring resorts of Radium and Fairmont along with the Fort Steel Heritage Park, which celebrates the rich Canadian history of pioneer days. North of the rich angling and ranching country of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast lay vast tracts of untamed lakes, forest and wilderness stretching to the border with the Yukon and Northwest Territories. Some sporting resorts in this area are accessible only by air. Queen Charlotte Islands, reached by ferry from Prince Rupert in the far northwest, is an adventurous side-trip with good fishing opportunities. Another good wilderness route is the Alaska Highway , running through Prince George, Dawson Creek and Fort St John in the northeast. This former fur-trading trail gives good access to the provincial parks of Stone Mountain and Muncho Lake , which provide basic amenities for striking out into this rugged terrain. Both the scenery and the sporting opportunities en route are excellent.
Victoria: The provincial capital lies at the southern tip of the heavily forested and mountainous Vancouver Island. This most English of Canadian towns is distinguished by Victorian and neo-classical architecture and well-appointed residential areas. In the harbour area are the impressive Parliament Buildings and the Royal British Columbia Museum, which gives an overview of the region's history. During summer evenings a marching band finishes up at the Parliament Buildings. Also worth visiting are Maltwood Art Gallery, Thunderbird Park (where visitors may see modern-day First Nation carvers at work) and Craigdarroch Castle, an impressive 19th-century landmark mansion home. City life is enhanced by more than 60 recreational parks inside city limits. The Undersea Gardens offer a fish-eye view of harbour life.
Approximately 20km (12 miles) to the north the Butchart Gardens have delightful English, Japanese and Italian gardens set in a former limestone quarry.
Whittier: Welcome to Whittier, Alaska -The Western Gateway to Prince William Sound only 60 miles from Anchorage, Whittier beckons with all the beauty of Prince William Sound – a place where you learn the real meaning of the word “fjord”. The Sound is made up of many deep fjords with tidewater glaciers that calve before your eyes, and islands around every turn.
Whittier is also surrounded by the Chugach National Forest, the second largest in the United States and a vast wilderness.
Visit Whittier and see wildlife, beach comb and pick berries while walking along the harbor or hiking the Portage Pass, Salmon Run or Horse Tail Falls trails.
Whittier businesses are the starting point for your Prince William Sound adventure offering a variety of water-related recreation including day cruises, fishing charters, kayak tours and scuba diving. Winter activities include snow shoeing, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.
Birds are also in abundance. Watch eagles soar or see thousands of seabirds gather in their nesting grounds at the kittiwake rookery just across Passage Canal from Whittier.

Practically all US facing poker sites accept Visa as a method to fund your poker account. There are more Visa cards in circulation than any other type of credit or debit card, and – with the exception of American Express – Visa cards owners spend the most amount of money each year per person.
Visa poker deposits are also inexpensive for online poker providers to process compared with some other deposit options. Consequently poker sites that accept Visa are prepared to absorb any costs associated with the deposit and credit the full deposit amount into players´ accounts.
When you use Visa to play online poker for real money there are a number of benefits. Firstly, making a deposit with a Visa card is a convenient way in which to fund an online poker account. It is just as easy as buying something online – you just enter your card details and CVV number – and the funds can be used almost at once to play online poker.
The process for using a Visa card to play online poker is also very secure. All the online poker sites that accept Visa use an encrypted connection when performing banking transactions. There is no risk of your credit or debit card details being intercepted while you are making a deposit or somebody hacking into the site´s database to steal your identity.
The issuer of your Visa card also provides a certain level of security against unauthorized charges when you play real money poker with Visa deposits. Although it is unlikely that anybody working for an online poker company would be able to access your personal details (think of the negative publicity if that was allowed to happen), if your card is used without your permission, it is easy to recover the money.
All US poker sites accept Visa deposits. They also offer valuable first deposit and ongoing poker bonuses, and provide players in the US with the best opportunities for enjoying a lucrative poker experience. In our experience Visa deposits at online poker sites have a reasonably high acceptance rate, although there is no guarantee that your deposit will go through first time, every time.
As well as all the benefits of using Visa to play real money poker, there are a couple of negatives. Not every Visa deposit at an online poker site is guaranteed to be accepted. This is because of your card issuer´s paranoia amount processing gambling transactions and has nothing to do with the credibility of the site. However, it is a nuisance to find your deposit is declined and have to contact customer support to either try again or find an alternative deposit option – especially if you are trying to late-register for a valuable tournament!
The ease of depositing at a poker site with Visa can also be a negative when players are unable to manage a bad beat. The temptation to reload an account and win the money back is understandable; but, with other deposit options, more processes are involved – giving players the opportunity of a cooling off period, which may ultimately prevent them from depositing more money than they can comfortably afford to lose.
Currently, it is also impossible to make withdrawals to a regular Visa card from the poker sites (a couple provide a reloadable Visa card to which you can make withdrawals). This means it may be more convenient for you to use an e-Wallet or person-to-person transfer to fund your account. If you enjoy a winning session or cash in a valuable tournament after depositing at an online poker site with a Visa card, it will be necessary for you to use an alternative withdrawal method to get your hands on your money – such as a wire to your bank or a check.
Are there any fees attached to playing online poker with a Visa in the US?
The poker provider will not charge you for making a deposit into your account with a Visa, but your bank or card issuer may charge you a small percentage of the deposit amount if they regard it as a cash advance”. Banks differ with their policies in this respect.
What is the least I can deposit on a poker site with a Visa card?
Online poker providers have varying limits for the minimum and maximum you can deposit on a poker site with a Visa. The least you can deposit is usually $50.00 and some sites insist that you verify your account and complete a credit card authorization form before allowing you to deposit much more.
In our experience around 75%. Hopefully you will not need to make a deposit too frequently, but we tend to use our Visa cards to take advantage of reload bonuses and reload-dependent promotions, so we reckon our estimate is pretty accurate.
If my Visa poker deposit is declined, do I need to phone my bank?
No. Give the site´s customer services department a call. Most customer service representatives are experienced in helping poker players get funds onto their accounts – more so than bank employees! Most poker sites that accept Visa as a deposit option have a toll-free number you can call. | 2019-04-21T22:42:21 | https://www.usafriendlypokersites.com/deposit/visa/ |

Although beheaded over 200 years ago in The Great Jell-o Pudding Revolt, Princess Marie still drifts through the Palace, her head tucked under her arm and moaning things like, “Jiiiiiigglerrrrrsss! Jell-o Jigglerrrrrrssssss!” Long ago the Palace chefs gave up making pudding for the fancy balls, because someone would inexplicably get a fork in their eye. And then there was all the pudding on the ceiling to clean up.
A (sort of) new Harry Potter 6 trailer. It looks so cool. I can’t wait.
Also, a podcast on how people can spontaneously combust.
I feel like I’m using the same brushes over and over in my paintings–mostly the cover pencils and smear blender. I like the matted look it gives but I kind of feel in a rut. Can anyone give me advice? What brushes do you all use?
I personally like to use tooth brushes.
Uh… I don't really use brushes….
I just discovered the Pattern Chalk brush under the Pattern Pen category.
You could experiment with those and try painting with your own custom made patterns.
-Or, if you're really feeling daring, you could try painting an entire piece with just the palette knife.
So cool! Love the colors and the atmosphere of this piece.
My new favorite brush is the Captured Bristle Acrylic. Actually it's an old favorite that just re-became my favorite. It has a nice textural quality that forces me to stay a little more painterly than I'm inclined.
And, nice picture. But those beady eyes are creepy.
I will never be able to eat Jello without feeling like some creepy late 18th century French-ish princess is cursing my existence. Cool!
Well, I'm not much of a painter! But I love this piece. Those historic characters you do are always fun to see. I like the charming comments you make also. Good stuff Heather!!
Would like to see a book of your work–for sure.

The local paper reports it a bit differently from the National Press (their reports may be found by clicking here) and gives more reliable personal details.
Moretonhampstead was visited on Tuesday morning by a devastating fire, which swept the whole length of New Street destroying, in its fury, three shops, the bank and one dwelling house, besides doing much damage to other business premises, the extent of which is difficult to estimate at present, but without doubt it will range somewhere in the region of from £15,000 to £20,000. The row of shops and houses, now a mass of ruins, formed part of what is known as the Square, facing the White Horse Hotel, Great House and the White Hart Hotel. Situated in the very centre of the town, the Square forms Moreton's principal parking place for hundreds of cars and chars-a-banc during the summer season, and its old-world charm is known to thousands of visitors.
The property totally destroyed comprises the premises of the well-known and old established firm of Neck and Sons, a commodious establishment dealing in general stores and drapery, coal, oil, grain, etc. Here the whole of the extensive stock has been totally destroyed, all that was saved being a quantity of flour at the rear. In the drapery department a new consignment of hats was lost, as well as many advanced dressmaking orders, which were being prepared for Easter. The horses in the stables at the rear were fortunately saved but a motor lorry was damaged. The bank premises adjoining, occupied by the National Provincial and Union Bank, Ltd, were completely gutted, the safe and books however being saved.
Adjoining the Bank was the 'Bidder Tea Rooms' (an historical house), the home of the famous lightning calculator, George Bidder. The premises were in the occupation of Mr. and Mrs W. Morgan, who were removing to other premises in a week's time, and whose furniture has now unfortunately been wholly destroyed. These premises were used as a refreshment house, where a brisk trade was done in the summer. Here everything was completely destroyed, not a stick of furniture being saved, Mr Morgan himself escaping with the bare suit he stood up in, whilst his wife rushed into the street in her night attire, having to borrow a skirt, everything else being destroyed.
befell everything, nothing being saved. The next shop, towards the corner of Forder Street, is held by Mr Harold Dymond, who carries on trade as an ironmonger and saddler, but happily he was able to get the whole of his stock into the street, in safety. The building escaped the fate of the others, though it is greatly damaged, the roof being stripped of slates, as is also the confectionery shop in Forder Street belonging to Mrs Harding, who has also suffered considerable damage to her furniture in consequence of water being poured through the ripped slate roof.
The back of Mrs Cann's house, and the hardware shop of Mr T. Gilbert, in Forder Street, escaped, but furniture was shifted from Mrs. Cann's premises as a precautionary measure, and luckily the flames were kept back.
adjoining, which would otherwise have caused an explosion. The total frontage involved was roughly 100 feet, extending to a depth of 80 ft. It is understood that the property, which belongs to three different owners, is covered by insurance. Messrs. Neck's and the Bank premises are occupied by the owners; the tea rooms, tobacconist and toy shop belonged to Mr Perkins, Elmfield, and Mr Dymond's saddlery shop to Mr Edwin J. Coming, Linscott.
The loss of stores at Messrs. Neck and sons is stated to be £4000, and the Morgan, Davy and Tourle families have been rendered homeless by the calamity.
The accounts of the fire which have appeared in the London Press have, in many instances, been grotesquely exaggerated. At no time was the whole village threatened with extinction, and the statements as to the destruction of twenty houses were wholly untrue. As with most fires, it is difficult to trace the precise origin, but it is thought that in this instance it had its inception in the wall or chimney dividing the Bank premises from that occupied by Mr & Mrs Morgan. The first indication of anything untoward occurring was noticed shortly after 3 o'clock by Mrs Morgan, who fancied she heard a cracking or rustling sound in the wall. She accordingly aroused her husband, but he took very little notice, thinking it to be rats, which had been causing a little trouble for some time. Mrs Morgan, however, was not satisfied, and made Mr Morgan investigate the noise, which seemed particularly strange and uncanny to her. On rising he discovered clouds of smoke issuing from the walls. He immediately scrambled into his clothes and rushed off to call the local Fire Brigade, who smartly answered the summons, under Capt. W. Gay. On returning, he found flames were shooting through the roof and were being fanned by a bitterly sharp, cold north-east wind. The flames soon spread to the left, through the Bank, and thence to Messrs. Neck and Sons premises, which were alight when the Moreton Brigade arrived on the scene.
Mr F Clampitt, living opposite, at Great House, was promptly on the scene and soon realised that the local Brigade, although working like Trojans, could not possibly deal with the fire with their limited appliances, which consisted of an old manual engine. He immediately telephoned for the Newton Abbot Brigade, and later for the Exeter Brigade, who answered very smartly, and were on the scene in well under an hour. The Newton Abbot Brigade, however, had a slight mishap after leaving Bovey Tracey, but arrived almost immediately afterwards, under Chief Officer Mills.
Shortly six jets were in play on the flaming buildings, but even this seemed to have little effect on the fire, which being fanned by a strong wind were a roaring furnace, and gradually creeping towards the other shops.
Attacks were made from both ends and fortunately the wind veered round otherwise far greater damage would have been caused, and the central block of the Square, which partly consists of thatched houses, would inevitably have taken fire. Happily, however, this catastrophe did not eventuate, but even so, the thatched roofs of the butcher's shop of Mr Dommett, situated in Court Street, took fire in several places but, being promptly observed, these minor outbreaks were quickly subdued, thanks to the assistance given by members of the local troops of Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, who worked untiringly throughout the early hours of the morning in the biting wind, the coldness of which can be realised from the fact that the water froze as they handled it in a long chain from the rear of Mr E. Endacott's premises in Court Street, to the scene of the fire, where a youngster named Lewis Endacott, sat on the thatch and calmly extinguished the flames as they arose. He was heartily cheered for the part he took, and which helped to prevent further destruction of property situated in Court Street.
Crowds of people turned out to witness the awe-inspiring sight, the flames reaching at times to an immense height. The roofs of some of the burning buildings were of tar and sand, which produced a terrific heat, so much so that the windows of the hotel on the other side of the Square were almost red hot.
The cold, however, from the north east wind was so great that icicles a foot long were hanging from the remains after the fire had been subdued somewhat. It was evident from the start that it was impossible to save the block of buildings, which were very old and dry, containing large quantities of wood. The brigades fought hard, but finding it impossible to save any furniture from the doomed buildings, accordingly made efforts to prevent the flames spreading further. By removing slates from adjoining buildings and isolating the fire as much as possible. If the brigades had been long delayed in arriving, the whole of the Square, Court Street and Forder Street would probably have been destroyed. Not far distant are the Bowring Library and the White Hart Hotel, but fortunately these were a reasonably safe distance away.
Those who were forced to leave their doomed homes stood in the cold, wet street in distressed conditions, attired in scanty apparel, and were later offered accommodation by kind-hearted neighbours and friends, and needless to say this hospitality was eagerly accepted. Fortunately there was no loss of human life, the only death being that of a cat, which appeared to be fascinated, and leapt into the flames.
The Newton and Exeter Brigades were in attendance until about 12 o'clock, when they returned to their respective stations, whilst the Moreton Brigade remained on duty pouring water upon the smouldering ruins, as fresh signs of fire were visible and meanwhile pulling down all possible portions of wall which might prove dangerous. Four members remained on duty the whole night. The worst of the outbreak was completely under control by 7 o'clock, being confined within the stark naked walls. The property destroyed formed the real centre of Moreton?s business quarters, the shop of Neck and sons being a busy one, especially on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
One of the sights was the burning of the large clock in the Bank building, from the face of which the flames shot, but a hose directed on it caused a mass of wheels and springs to fly in all directions. The Square was full of water, pouring in torrents down the Station road, the drains being unable to cope with the extra rush.
Thanks to Mr Clampitt's presence of mind, the towns supply of gas was cut off to avoid the chance of an explosion.
Many were inconvenienced by the cutting off of the supply, through having to go without their morning cup of tea.
The wind throughout the conflagration was icily cold and blew the flames right across the street, greatly to the alarm of other residents, many of whom removed their goods and furniture to safety. Mr J. Germon deposited valuable furniture in the Gordon Hall. The ruins still continued to smoke and smoulder during the whole of Tuesday afternoon and evening, whilst a heavy snowstorm was raging. The town from early morning till late at night was full of sightseers, many coming from long distances in cars and on motor cycles.
Several London daily papers were represented amongst the many reports and photographers present and a cinematograph operator also put in an appearance and filmed the smoking ruins from all quarters. As early as 6 o'clock on Tuesday morning calls were received at Moreton local Police Station by the Sergeant from London newspapers who were eager for information . The news reached them even before some of Moreton's own inhabitants in more distant parts of the parish were aware of the disaster.
The safes of the National Provincial Bank were among the ruins, and were rolled across the Square to the residence of Mrs F. Clampitt, where temporary officers were opened at once with a notice in the window reading Banking hours from 10 to 3.30. The money and papers in the safe were intact.
The property where the fire commenced, that occupied by Mr and Mrs W. Morgan was several hundred years old. Master Anthony Davy escaped with just his everyday school suit, and later had to purchase a new collar and tie. At the residence of Mrs Davey it was thought the safe where money and papers were stored was insecure, but a fireman entered the burning building and found it quite sound. The safe, amongst other valuable articles, contained an old gold watch of her late husband, greatly valued, but which it appears went through the ordeal safely and was later found to be in perfect order.
The disaster is one of, if not actually the worst that has ever been experienced at Moretonhampstead. It is proposed to start a relief fund for those more seriously hit. The destruction of the houses will no doubt lead to the modernisation of Moreton at this particular spot.
Over twenty houses and business premises with all they contained in the way of furniture and goods were destroyed by a fire which raged throughout Monday night in the little town of Moretonhampstead on the fringe of Dartmoor.
Fortunately all the inhabitants managed to escape, hurriedly wrapping around them various garments, but there were pathetic scenes in the raging storm of wind and snow as little groups of parents and children stood shivering, watching the burning of their homes.
The outbreak originated in Court street in stores belonging to Messrs Neck and Co., and fed by the thatched roofs of the historic houses, galloped round the main square of the town with extraordinary rapidity.
SOS calls were sent to the Exeter and Newton Abbot fire brigades, 12 miles away, and, pending their arrival, the inhabitants of the entire town turned out and fought the flames with any and every appliance that came to hand.
But for the prompt dash of the brigades across country, it is certain that the greater part of the town would have been completely destroyed. The firemen arrived in an hour to find the Square an inferno. Flames were leaping to the sky from a score of houses, while of some buildings only charred and blackened walls remained.
The local branch of the National Provincial Bank was destroyed, only the safes remaining intact, as well as the co-operative stores and a drapery shop.
Boy Scouts and Girl Guides rendered splendid service in salving furniture and household valuables from houses in the path of the flames. The fire had been raging for some considerable time when it was learned that Mrs Tourle, a woman over 80 years of age, was still in her room over a tobacconist's shop. The townsfolk rushed to her rescue, and she was taken out with difficulty, clad in her night attire. A few moments later the thatched roof caught alight and the building was lost in flames.
After hours of strenuous work the brigades mastered the outbreak and prevented it spreading. All danger was not past, however, until an advanced hour yesterday morning, when, after a night of terror, water was still being showered on the glowing debris to prevent any further danger.
The damage is estimated at nearly £20,000. The fire originated in the historic house which was once the home of George Parker Bidder, who, because of his amazing powers of mental arithmetic, was known as the calculating boy.
Brigades' Dash to Scene Through Blizzard.
A Fire which broke out in the early hours of this morning, fanned by a strong north east wind, burnt so fiercely that it threatened to wipe out this little Devon market town, situated on the fringe of Dartmoor and well-known to thousands of visitors at near-by coast resorts.
Nearly a score of persons are rendered homeless and the damage is estimated at between £15,000 and £20,000.
The Exeter and Newton fire brigades made a breathless dash through blizzard, along miles of country lanes, and it was due to their prompt arrival that the town was saved.
The Bidder Tea House, Messrs Neck and Sons' General Stores, the offices of the National Provincial Bank, Mrs Tourle's fancy goods shop, and another shop occupied by a Mr Davey.
Snow showers were falling at the time, and the occupants, after a hasty rush to safety, stood in the bitter wind in their night attire until temporary accommodation was found for them.
One woman of eighty, Mrs Tourle, was only carried from her house with difficulty, and is said to have protested strongly that she did not wish to leave her home.
The fire started in the Bidder Tea House, occupied by Mr Morgan. Awakened about 3.30, he found smoke issuing from cracks, and rushed to summon the local brigade. When he returned the house was a mass of flames.
When the Exeter and Newton brigades arrived the flames had a firm hold on all five properties. Though hampered by an insufficient water supply, the firemen were successful in saving the adjacent buildings, the Free Library and the White Hart Hotel.
Boy Scouts and Girl Guides performed nobly in preventing the spread of the flames, the scouts climbing to thatched roofs and soaking them with water, and the guides aiding the villagers in passing buckets.
One lad climbed to a roof and, single-handed, put out a fire that had started in the thatch.
The safe and books of the bank were saved, but in every other case it was impossible to remove a single article of furniture. The outbreak was got under about noon.
The Bidder Tea House was of historic interest as the home of George Parker Bidder, who was, in the early nineteenth century, known as the Calculating Boy by reason of his amazing powers of mental arithmetic. He was afterwards associated with Robert Stephenson as a railway engineer, planned the Victoria Docks in London, and helped to found the first electric telegraph company.
Firemen and villagers battled for four hours early this morning in a raging snowstorm against a disastrous fire which threatened to destroy half the village of Moretonhampstead, on the fringes of Dartmoor.
Three houses and five shops were destroyed and nine people were rendered homeless. A high wind fanned the flames and the old wooden buildings burned like matchwood. Water had to be poured on the thatched roofs of the neighbouring houses, and in two cases the thatching had to be ripped off to prevent more houses from catching fire.
Men women and children whose homes were burning stood in the streets with coats slung over their night attire. Hundreds of villagers joined in the fire fight, and Boy Scouts and Girl guides formed a chain to pass buckets of water.
The fire was discovered shortly after three o'clock by Mr W. Morgan. His wife had been awakened by the crackling of flames. He and his family rushed out of the house and gave the alarm. The next minute their house was a furnace.
Fire brigades from Exeter and Newton Abbot, twelve miles away, raced to the village, but the fire, which had started in business premises at the top of the main street, enveloped a large general store, the National Provincial Bank, and some shops. Three houses were next involved, and but for the arrival of the fire brigades half the village would have been burned to the ground. Two safes which were rescued from the bank were the only property saved.
Horses in a neighbouring stable were brought out and led down the street to safety. Dogs in the houses jumped from windows and escaped the flames, but a cat was burned to death. Mrs Tourle, aged eighty, at first refused to leave her old home, but as the crackling of the flames grew more menacing she agreed to go. Water was still being pumped into the charred timbers at midday.
One of the houses burned was noted as the birthplace of George Parker Bidder, engineer and mathematician. | 2019-04-24T22:12:00 | http://moretonhampstead.org.uk/texts/sources/firereport2.ghtml |

As you lay back, you float weightlessly, buoyed by the salts. The body-temperature water relaxes your sense of touch. The lights and sounds fade. Your heartbeat and breathing slow, your body unwinds, your mind opens. Flotation therapy is relaxation through science. Eliminating your sensory overload allows your brain to drift into the half-awake, half-dreaming Theta state, where meditation and creativity flourish.
Levels of the stress hormone Cortisol drop, while the feel-good dopamine hormone rises.
Once your mind is at rest, your body can focus on healing itself. As you counteract the harsh effects of gravity, your muscles and connective tissues begin to unwind and unkink. Joints are supported and relax, and your lower back begins to decompress and align. You emerge, relaxed and reenergized. You feel lighter, brighter, sharper – a body and spirit lift that lasts for days. | 2019-04-20T21:14:30 | https://www.visitpanamacitybeach.com/listings/float-fix/6032/ |

Jeddah corniche, old and new. – My journey into the soul of India.
Today I had a taxi driver who drove me along the long corniche , the old one and the new one which I learned opened up in nov. last year. It’s beautifully done. Coastal road, recreation areas as walkways, gyms. Mosques, play parks for kids, large scale civic sculptures, loads of cafe’s and restaurants and of course hotels. The Jeddah corniche is 30 km long ! and I learned that Jeddah has a nick name – Bride of the Red Sea.
Interesting little tour…I was invited to breakfast with the fishermen !, learned a little arabic from the driver who didn’t know much english, smelled the ocean and felt the winds from it which is always nice. | 2019-04-25T13:52:09 | https://susannarosenphotography.com/2018/02/20/jeddah-corniche-old-and-new/ |

Hello! I've never done a GeekList before, and I know that there a a million and four other GeekLists out there like this, but I'd really like some help.
Since I've gotten married, I haven't been able to buy very many board games. Discretionary cash is at a premium.
Last week was my birthday, and I got enough money to put together a CoolStuffInc free shipping order.
My problem is this: I don't know what to get. And I don't know when I'll get to buy any more games, because there's a baby on the way (due in March.) So I really want this order to be good.
Please give me some recommendations. My wishlist and ratings list are up-to-date.
Basically, I want games that I will like and that I will get to play, therefore relatively short play-times, or feasible solo options are a plus.
I added a few games I'm considering, so if you have comments on them, I'd welcome it.
Thanks for your time and your help!
This is on my short-list. Comments and recommendations would be wonderful.
This is another I'm considering.
The solo option in this one is appealing. And it seems fairly simple and non-competitive, which should appeal to my wife.
This is a challenging game that features exploration, deck building, and resource management. It plays extremely well as a solo game, and sits at a unique junction between a Euro game and a thematic combat game. This is one of my favorites!
I can also second the vote for Field Commander: Napoleon.
Great solo game from Victory Point Games, and thankfully it's NOT one of their States of Siege games (which are all basically the same game). You travel around the oceans of the world pursuing your goals: attacking ships, creating political unrest, exploring, et al. I love this little game, and it's cheap, too! | 2019-04-22T01:11:01 | https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/162924/please-give-me-some-recommendations |
So what's it like to work on a blockbuster movie franchise, both before and after it has that blockbuster status?
I know of only one Omaha native who knows.
Terran Boylan, 42, was hired by DreamWorks as a computer animator in 2000, just in time to put some touches on "Shrek."
That name "Shrek," by the way, comes from the Yiddish for monster. The root word, in German, means terror or fright.
Who knew the story of a green ogre would become such a hit - especially after the guy who was doing Shrek's voice, "Saturday Night Live" star Chris Farley, died in midproduction?
DreamWorks' Steven Spielberg had wanted his friend Dan Aykroyd cast as Shrek, but Mike Myers, another "SNL" alumnus, snagged the role. Shrek's now-famous Scottish accent was a Myers afterthought.
Whatever accidents led to "Shrek," it hauled in more than $480 million worldwide. The making of the sequel was under way even before the original opened in 2001 and went on to win the first Oscar in the new category of best animated feature.
Boylan began at DreamWorks as a special-effects animator. In "Shrek," he created dust clouds blowing off a book cover and kicked up by Donkey on a forest trail. And that moment when Shrek digs out earwax and turns it into a candle? All Boylan's.
For "Shrek the Third," which raked in $122 million over the weekend to push "Spider-Man 3" out of the top box-office spot, Boylan served as a character technical director. In that capacity, he helped program computer controls for a character's movable parts. The goal is fluid, natural movement.
He did the same thing on "Madagascar" and "Over the Hedge."
What Boylan called "the legacy characters" - Shrek, Fiona, Donkey - got a makeover in "Shrek the Third" to reflect new capabilities in computer animation. The idea was to change the way these characters moved, making them more flexible for animators without changing their appearance. Boylan worked on the Gingerbread Man and on Dragon.
You might not notice that Donkey has new dynamic movement in his ears, or that animators can do things with Dragon's tail they couldn't before. But Boylan said that kind of detail is what makes an animated movie "pop" up there on the big screen.
Another Boylan specialty is hair movement - particularly on animals covered in hair. Those porcupines in "Over the Hedge" were a tough knot for Boylan. This time, he had to deal with Rapunzel's hair.
"So many CG (computer-generated) films came out in the past year, the audience really has a new expectation for what they see," Boylan said from the Los Angeles area.
The original "Shrek" featured 36 locations, each with a highly detailed environment in which the characters moved. At that time, it was unusual for an audience to be treated to so much beautiful scenery, he said.
"But now they expect that as the standard," he said. "We've developed better techniques for the animated characters to act."
Examples: nose wrinkles, and that brow space between the eyes. You'd never guess Shrek's face has hundreds of working muscles contributing to his expressiveness.
Boylan actually had to think hard to remember the specifics of what he did on "Shrek the Third," because he worked on it before "Over the Hedge" and before "Bee Movie," starring Jerry Seinfeld, which will be released in November.
What Boylan does - much of it alone, in a dark room - is not the glamorous side of the business. He's never met any of the stars who voice the characters he works on.
"I saw John Lithgow once," he offered. But Boylan's wife, Belinda, who works in the consumer-product marketing end of DreamWorks, did meet Myers in New York City recently.
Terran and Belinda married last October. They hope to get to Omaha before too long, because Belinda has never been here. Terran's father, Dan Boylan, is an abstract artist who lives in Omaha. His mother, Mary Dexter, is from St. Louis.
Boylan is now working on a 2009 feature called "Monsters vs. Aliens," a send-up of 1950s monster flicks.
"I have to tell you, I really love working on characters," Boylan said. "While I have the same job title I had six years ago, every new film has its challenges. We keep advancing the state of the art in character animation and setup.
"I haven't gotten bored yet."

The 'new economy' constantly throws up a multiplicity of entrepreneurial ventures trying to solve the problems of modern India. By telling their stories I try to catch a glimpse of the entrepreneurial evolution that India is going through. I have a weakness for the gloss of novelty and chase it in all experiences, from exploring new cities and restaurants, to changing what I read.
For Deepak Shahdadpuri, founder and managing director of investment firm DSG Consumer Partners, organising lunch or dinner meetings was a tedious task. Even though the restaurant services industry progressed by leaps and bounds since he returned from Singapore in 2007, the long-winding process of booking a table over phone through his secretary would often get his goat. As food tech platforms mushroomed, he wished there would also be an efficient table reservation platform. “I assumed someone would start and I thought it would probably be Zomato,” he says.
It didn’t (not until 2015, when it acquired US-based table reservation platform NexTable and subsequently launched Zomato Book). And, “when you tried through a couple of startups that claimed to offer the service, you would often be asked to email or call back to confirm”.
In early 2013, Shahdadpuri struck up a conversation with Rohit Dasgupta, deputy general manager of the Oberoi Trident in Gurgaon. Over the next few months, journalist and food writer Vir Sanghvi, who was a frequenter at the hotel, also joined in the discussions. In June 2014, the sale of OpenTable, the US-based online reservation platform, to hotel booking conglomerate, Priceline Group, for a whopping $2.6 billion, reaffirmed their convictions about a market for a restaurant reservation platform in India. On July 7, 2014, EazyDiner, a techonology-enabled concierge for booking tables, was born.
Explains Dasgupta, now the chief operating officer (COO) of the company: “We are an instant table reservation platform. Thanks to our allocated inventory in every restaurant, you get a confirmation in 30 seconds once you book through an app.” The business model is based on a commission that restaurants pay on every booking that the platform enables.
EazyDiner also offers a concierge option in which you can book a table over phone. It is an old-fashioned way of easing consumers into the habit of making reservations. “If you want to introduce a consumer behaviour change, you need to make the change comfortable,” says Dasgupta.
This is crucial as Sanghvi says, “People in India are not used to making reservations.” What makes it worse, he says, is the fact that there are only a handful of restaurants in a city that need you to make a reservation for. By offering an inducement in the form of a discount or a free beverage, the platform incentivises the habit of booking a table. These incentives come from the restaurants themselves, for one simple but oft-ignored reason: Restaurants would prefer it if you called first.
“Reservations always help from a planning point of view,” says Yash Bhanage, COO and co-founder of The Bombay Canteen in Mumbai. “They help you plan your kitchen as well as your service staff,” he adds.
Besides the concierge service, the app uses predetermined inventory from restaurants to enable instant bookings. This is what, the founders claim, differentiates them from not only fly-by-night food tech services, but also competitors like Dineout (with 2,500 restaurants on its platform). While, with 1,000 restaurants, EazyDiner is yet to catch up with Dineout in terms of tie-ups, it helps that EazyDiner’s founders are industry insiders with a network that runs deep in the hospitality sector.
Apart from Dasgupta and Sanghvi (lead critic), the founding team at EazyDiner consists of Sachin Pabreja and Shruti Kaul, both of whom have extensive experience in the hospitality sector. Sue Reitz, an industry veteran, is the managing director. The startup also boasts an enviable ‘advisory board’ with some of Indian hospitality’s most recognisable names, including Oberoi Group’s joint MD and CEO Vikram Oberoi, as well as Dinesh Nair, co-chairman & managing director of the Leela Palaces, Hotels and Resorts.
The results of this integration are now beginning to show. This February, 20,000 diners used EazyDiner as opposed to 357 about a year ago. Last August, the company raised $3 million in a series-A round from DSG Consumer Partners and Saama Capital. With this, EazyDiner hopes to expand its operations from four cities—Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Pune—to 12 by the end of this year.
Perhaps the most noticeable feature of the platform is a crisp, informative expert review of restaurants. The fact that they are written by a team of journalists led by Sanghvi lends credibility. “The idea was to do the equivalent of a journalistic website on food. These were the kind of articles that would be found in a magazine that would try to explain what food was, how to order wine, and try to offer tips,” says Sanghvi.
As more and more Indians eat out, EazyDiner is making a concerted effort to create a better environment for diners. Besides getting diners to book a table, that is. | 2019-04-24T14:48:38 | http://www.forbesindia.com/article/work-in-progress/eating-out-reserve-your-table-with-eazydiner/42875/1 |
Annual performance reports must be filed within three months of the end of the financial year for all the country’s FDI-backed projects, according to a new directive from the Myanmar Investment Commission (MIC). The report needs to be submitted to the MIC (or one of its regional offices), while a summary of the report should also be posted on the appropriate investor/project website within three days of the initial submission, with a publicly-accessible link registered with the Commission. Should no project-specific website be available, the summary should be supplied to the MIC, which will then feature it on its own website.
All such reports should be prepared using the downloadable Form 11. | 2019-04-21T22:12:10 | http://emerging-markets-research.hktdc.com/business-news/article/Asia/MYANMAR-FDI-Projects-Obliged-to-File-Performance-Report-for-Each-Financial-Year/raasean/en/1/1X4UWASE/1X0AEB12.htm |

I got a ride from Coldfoot to Fairbanks -- stayed with my friend Josh Spice for two days -- flew to New Jersey -- dropped off my laptop and other unnecessaries at an acquaintance's apartment in Manhattan -- and then moved into Zuccotti Park, just a few blocks away from Wall Street.
I'm writing this from Staten Island in a public library. The computers, unfortunately, do not have memory card adapters, making it impossible for me to include pictures.
-The park place is packed. We are literally sleeping shoulder to shoulder. On one side of me was a lesbian in high school, and on the other, I think, was a transvestite. Both were very nice.
-Last night--Friday night--it felt especially packed. It seems the park is populated by 30% inhabitants and 70% visitors. It has a festival-like atmosphere. Very caring and giving. Positive vibes. Many of the visitors have thanked the occupiers for their presence. Last night, I broke bread with three Jewish visitors.
-Food is free, almost 24-hours a day. There have been tons of donated supplies: food, camping gear, brooms, medical supplies.
-There are various "working groups": sanitation, cooking, dishwashing, medical, library. This place seems VERY organized, and while I've heard that there've been sanitation problems, things are actually pretty neat and orderly given the circumstances.
-The occupiers do seem to be, as they're portrayed, fractured and unfocused. At one point yesterday, there were three ongoing speeches at different ares of the park: one on corporate greed at Wal-Mart, another on the evils of fracking, and another on unjust use of police force on blacks and latinos, who are being stopped and frisked in record numbers. Another group went to "occupy" a nearby museum. Some sort of unified message/agenda would do some good, I think.
-No one here wants handouts. While I'm sure some want it, I haven't even heard anyting about "student loan forgiveness." Ultimately, I think everyone's just disillusioned with the state of our democracy. The one prevalent theme seems to be a disgust for corporate power, and corporate America's ownership of our democracy. This protest is happening, I think, because voting is no longer a means of affecting positive change, as politicians are beholden to the corporate interests in power.
-Yesterday, I witnessed my first act of civil disobedience when Cornell West, Carl Dix, some religious leaders, and members of Occupy Wall Street were arrested when they linked arms in front of a police building to protest the NYPD's outrageous "stopping and frisking" numbers. Good stuff.
-Despite being a nature-loving introvert now surrounded by pigeons and people and police, I'm enjoying my time here. Not sure how long I'll be here, but I'll put up photos and share more impressions when I can!
Glad there's a real writer on the scene.
Think Salon would be interested in an article?
One day you're in Alaska and a couple days later you're in NYC checking out the protest! I look forward to reading your perspective on this event, not because I don't trust the media, but because I know they're not participating or getting too close to any of it. Great post!
I read in the NY Times how restaurants near the occupy areas are getting calls from people who want to pay for food for the participants. That is so cool! Man I would have been part of a cheering squad for the greedy Walmart speech.
First found out about you by reading the Into the Woods blog, then threw a few $ itnto your scholarship call last year. Anyway, I just wanted to commend you for this latest adventure in your life and am with you in spirit. If you need anything (besides your next job?!) let us know. It was great hearing about your time in Alaska but it sounds like it was about time to leave as it was. Best wishes. | 2019-04-23T02:23:08 | http://www.kenilgunas.com/2011/10/occupying-wall-street.html |

Hey troops. Unfortunately, I'm going to be taking a break from blogging for a while, mainly 'cos real life is taking up too much time at the moment. Hope to be back sometime next year, but in the meantime, thanks for all your comments and here's to a peaceful and restful Xmas ( with loads of great comics to read ).
There were a ton of great one-off characters in the Bronze Age for my money, characters who coulda' been contenders if they'd only been given the chance.
Here's one: Linda Littletrees, otherwise known as Witch-Woman, who bothered Ghost Rider for a couple of issues back at the start of his career, having like him, also become an unwitting pawn of the devil.
As you'll see from her origin here, Linda isn't really a bad girl, she just got in with the wrong crowd is all, and in fact, a couple of issues later, she'd lost her black magic powers and was all for helping Johnny out in his fight against evil.
In fact, Witch-Woman's origin is probably why I like this character so much. Firstly it takes over most of this issue, and secondly it's like a classic '70's Hammer or Amicus movie, long before I was actually old enough to be allowed to watch them.
Plus, y'know, hot Satanic Red Indian chick in her own series? She could've taken on Satana for starters.
Although football strips were usually the genre of least interest to me and my gang in the Bronze Age ( with a few honorable exceptions, such as Hot-Shot Hamish ), Raven On The Wing was a little bit different.
Firstly, any strip in Valiant was always going to be worth at least a look, and secondly, Raven was drawn by the same guy who did Adam Eterno & Kelly's Eye, Francisco Solano Lopez, even though none of us knew his name at the time, and probably thought the artist was British.
Raven was a mysterious gypsy lad, with preternatural soccer skills, who was discovered by Highbro' Rovers coach 'Baldy' Hagan to bring the struggling third division club out of the doldrums.
As such, he belongs to a long, long tradition in British comics of noble savages with magical sports skills, from Valiant's own Wild Wonders to Tornado's Storm, and the strip is chock full of marvelous, likeable characters, not least Raven & the eternally beleaguered Baldy.
But again, where the strip really scores ( arf! ) is with the art. A lot of the off-pitch action tends to take place on wind-blasted heaths and in spooky, moonlit woods, and Lopez is almost like a family friendly version of Alfredo Alcala. Especially when Morag, the eternally hooded and frankly terrifying wise woman of Raven's tribe looms into frame.
In this story, the team are off to Spain to play in some or other tournament ( like I said, don't like football ) and get involved in all sorts of supernatural skullduggery.

I've got my a dataset of single cells that were sequenced and generated the associated count files etc.
Up until know i've been using the Seurat package in R that is amazing at clustering cells itself (unsupervised), and it will then give you the genes differentially expressed between clusters A vs B etc.
One question I have though and can't find the solution is how to do "supervised" clustering (??) Basically I've got these cells that are for example Pax3+/CD146+ and these other cells that are Pax3+/CD146-. And these cells using the tSNE plot I can see fall in different clusters when I do conventional clustering (together with other unrelated cells). Does anyone know of a way that I can cluster all of the cells I want together in two different clusters (Pax3+ / CD146- & +) and then run differential expression testing (or even just get the gene lists) of those?
Supervised "clustering" is usually called classification in machine learning while the term clustering is typically reserved for unsupervised approaches. Maybe this clarification of terms will help you find the relevant literature.
The way to do supervised learning, is to use a training set, i.e. a data set for which you know the ground truth and use it to "train" an algorithm to learn how to classify the data. How to do this more precisely depends on the type of data you have and the algorithm you want to use. There are a few things to pay attention to. For example, if you only train with two classes, all samples will end up into one or the other. If the "unrelated cells" are the problem you would need more classes and have ground truth data for all of them.
If getting ground truth data is an issue, you could also try refining the clustering (maybe using other clustering methods) so that you get more clusters that are "purer".
Thank you for clarifying the terminology. Sometimes having the correct term can save hours of random searching!
Not sure if my answer will still be useful to you, as the post is pretty old. I just bumped onto your question now. I'm guessing you are using the FindMarkers function in Seurat to call DE. You can make this function call differential expression between any two subgroups of cells by first assigning new subgroup identifiers to the cells using the AddMetaData function, and then formally making those subgroup identifiers the default cell "idents" using the "SetAllIdent" function. Then, you can assign the new "idents" to "ident.1" and "ident.2" parameters in the FindMarkers function. Hope this works! If you have found another way, please post that too as a reply. Good luck. | 2019-04-23T18:19:00 | https://www.biostars.org/p/261800/ |

1) Please understand that I have a strict “while in unit policy” on any late or absent assignment. Meaning that I will only take assignments from a unit, while we are in that unit. After this point, any late or absent assignment will not be graded. Exceptions will be made however, for extended absences.
2) A student may redo any assignment with a score of two or less for maximum score of three. A redo is not subject to the one week late policy but must be turned in by the end of the unit.
3) Retakes will be offered after school at math help. There will be a sign up sheet towards the front of the classroom.
4) Three bathroom passes per quarter.
5) To avoid being tardy one must be in their seat before the bell rings.
Each student will receive a grade of 1,2,3, or 4 for each category based on how they measure against the standards in each category. This will replace our A-F grading system that most of you are familiar with. We hope this information will be more valuable in helping you assess where your child is in relation to the standards. I know that many of you will have questions, so I anticipated some of them below. | 2019-04-23T23:55:38 | http://staff.rentonschools.us/nms/ostrander |
The resolution of Baumer’s IPRM 12 inductive sensor has been significantly improved. The sensor now measures with a resolution of up to 4 nm, which is to date unmatched in its class.
With this performance, it constitutes the ideal solution for monitoring concentricity and vibration of shafts or high precision measurements of manufacturing tolerances and deflections of shafts, leaf springs or levers.
All of the necessary electronics are integrated within its 90 mm short M12 housing. Compared to measuring systems with external evaluation unit this reduces acquisition costs and guarantees an easy integration into compact machines. At the same time, the sensor is one of the fastest sensors in its class with a measuring speed of 1 mm/s.
The IPRM 12 serves as a contact-free measuring system, which does not leave scratches or pressure points on delicately finished products. With its high performance, the sensor is a compelling alternative to complex measuring systems. The high linearity, as well as temperature stability, allow high precision measurements, a robust metal housing and protection class IP 67 equal high durability.
For various measuring tasks three differently configured sensor versions are available. Depending on the application they are optimized for high resolution and high linearity, high resolution in long-range sensing or an extended measuring range upon a minor temperature drift. | 2019-04-26T15:43:11 | https://andersoncontrol.com/inductive-m12-sensor/ |

What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Cuvu Beach?
What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Cuvu Beach for the first time?
The inshore grounds are well fished with the locals using nets in the hatchery areas and keeping the small fish. The locals target the fish and keep everything no matter what the size. You may get lucky trawling with fish migrating along the shelf but there is no abundance of fish here. Australian fishing is far superior in comparison due to the strict regulations.
Do the all day trip, it’s worth it and you have much more time to enjoy the day.

Hi! Sign in to let us know how SkinRenewal was?
Cathy H. Feb 02 .
I usually dont write on these things but after the last experience I had with another skin care place in Tulsa I had to get on and recommend Skin Renewal. I went in about three weeks ago and received microdermabrasion & a chemical Peel and within two weeks and a half I have already seen outstanding results. The place I went and got this procedure done before completely didnt know what they were doing because it left my face puffy and red and I saw no results. I was worried about looking bad for the holidays but after a recommendation from a friend I decided to go through with it and try it here. I have gotten so many compliments about looking more refreshed and younger. I will now rely on skin renewal for all my procedures.
Also they have the best products out of any place I have been to in Tulsa. The employees really know what they are talking about because they have all tested them out and are knowledgeable about what will work best for your skin type.
I am definitely coming back.. thanks guys!

Biomethane is a renewable gas. It is made from biodegradable matter such as food waste, sewage or energy crops. It has a key role to play in a low carbon economy.
Britain has a comprehensive network of gas pipes reaching over 80 per cent of UK homes. We don't need to make any changes to appliances or the gas network to use biomethane.
We want to increase the amount of renewable gas we have on our network. And we want to make it as simple as possible for producers to connect to our network.
meeting energy demand by using sustainable resources.
If you are thinking about becoming, or are an existing, biomethane producer you can find out more on these pages.
There are eight steps to getting connected.
Financial reconciliation and project close out.

The members of this polygamous cult, located in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas, are in no doubt that God exists – he lives right next door to them.
Ziona Chana is famous for having the largest family in the world. It totals 163 members, including 38 wives. His polygamous family is not unique, however, as Ziona also leads a polygamous cult of over 1000 people, where male members can have as many wives as they please.
Known as the “New Generation”, the cult was founded by Ziona’s father and uncle when they had an epiphany, and came to believe that the human body is immortal. Both are now dead, but the cult’s followers believe Ziona will live forever and worship him as their God.

The “New Generation” community was once a part of the neighbouring village of Baktwang, but the villagers decided to distance themselves from the cult members. Baktwang’s residents are wary of the cult’s ideology but envy its organisation and economic success. The latter is explained by tough discipline within the commune, where every member is expected to contribute to its prosperity. Besides, the unusual community with the record-breaking family is a honey pot for tourists, who give money to the cult.

You can surely enjoy the heady contents inside your absinthe glass much more when you get immersed in vintage classic mood with absinthe posters. By buying an authentic, rare and genuine poster or even a high-quality reproduction of the vintage art, you can truly create the perfect ambiance for savoring each sip of absinthe alcohol to the fullest absinthe fountain.
Absinthe gained popularity from the late Nineteenth century when it was first distilled to treat soldiers for various diseases. However, its strong bitter-sweet taste along with heady absinthe effects caused by the high amount of alcohol content soon attracted drinkers from all walks of life including people in the arena of literature and art. The end result was that absinthe was quickly captured in numerous exotic paintings that typically portrayed gentlemen and females wearing various attires either holding up a bottle of their favorite absinthe brand or sitting at a cafe with a glass of absinthe liquor in their hands.
Since such vintage art is not only very rare but also extremely expensive you may have a tendency to get upset. However, modern technology not just gives you a chance to own such works of classic art for the fraction of the original price but also allows you to have them delivered right at the front door. The world wide web has seen the appearance of various online absinthe poster shops and you can easily buy absinthe posters online after browsing through genres of posters that depict the journey of absinthe into present times. Included in this are posters depicting people drinking absinthe drinks, absinthe bottles, absinthe fountains, absinthe glasses, the classic absinthe fairy poster or green fairy poster, or even a poster of the devil pouring out a glass of absinthe.
Each re-print in absinthe art may be ordered as being a canvas print or even a giclee print on paper, which is made using computerized printing technology. Each poster should be carefully selected in order that the color and theme suits the prevailing ambiance of your bar at home and also manages to enhance the environment even before you sit back to louche the first glass of your absinthe liquor. You can even choose from smaller posters that measure around 6 x 8 inches to huge ones that measure 33 x 47 inches so as to produce a breathtaking impression to anybody walking into your home or bar.
Thanks to the checkered history of absinthe that led to a ban of almost a century in most countries around the world, absinthe has turned into a mythical and heady drink that’s also featured as framed art to create that perfect mood. Classic posters such as the absinthe fairy poster or absinthe bourgeois poster are always very popular and when you can get your hands on a high quality lithograph you may absolutely display your selected collection to your good friends while you all relax in your bar with a glass of the green fairy in your hands absinthe online.
Absinthe is not merely an alcoholic drink but rather is really a combination of several factors and rituals that turn each sip right into a blast into the past. You need to generate that perfect vintage mood prior to embarking on a journey to induce absinthe effects with each and every sip in this bitter-sweet and potent drink. One sure way to get immersed in vintage classic mood is to use the help of high-quality absinthe posters that present the glorious history of absinthe to each and every viewer in a colorful and unique way. | 2019-04-21T14:24:08 | http://free-label-maker.com/absinthe/get-engrossed-in-retro-vintage-mood-with-absinthe-posters/ |

“For we have found this man a plague, a creator of dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes” (Acts 24:5 NKJV).
Some of the same group of Jewish leaders who had accused Jesus before Pontius Pilate, now traveled to Caesarea to bring accusation against the apostle Paul before the Roman governor, Felix. This time, they hired a Roman orator and attorney named Tertullus to represent their case. He began his accusation by complimenting “noble” Felix and the Romans for the Pax Romana that they had brought to Judea. And in contrast, he named Paul, with ad hominem disdain, a “plague,” a pestilence, among the Jews throughout the Roman world. Yet, his climatic charge was that Paul was a “ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes,” using the same name that they had given Jesus, namely, Jesus of Nazareth.
The Greek word translated “sect” is the origin of our word for “heresy.” So, the Jews called the followers of Jesus of Nazareth, a heretical sect called “Nazarenes.” Muslims picked up this name and have called Christians by this same name since their invasion of Christian lands in the 7th century. Recently, the Christians in Mosul, Iraq, were labeled with the Arabic letter “nun” (“N” in our alphabet) by members of ISIS to show that they were “Nazarenes,” a name meant to shame them, but instead worn as a mark of faith by those so labeled.
The apostle Paul was essentially marked with the letter “N” for Nazarene. Yet he too, wore it not with shame, but with humble faith in the One who was first called the Nazarene.
“On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present. When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord” (Acts 21:18-20 NKJV).
The apostle Paul reported to James, the half-brother of Jesus (Gal. 1:19), and the Christian elders in Jerusalem concerning his missionary work among the Gentiles. They gave glory to the Lord when they heard his report. Yet, they also encouraged him to take steps to reconcile himself to the Jewish believers in Jerusalem by showing that he “walked orderly and kept the law” (Acts 21:25).
Paul submitted to the advice of James and the elders. Unfortunately, it was in the following of their advice that he was falsely accused by the mob and nearly beaten to death before being arrested by the commander of the Roman garrison.
Some would say that it was the following of the advice of James and the elders that led to Paul’s arrest. But Paul knew better. He knew that it was the Lord who guided his steps and determined his path. He knew that the Lord had sent him on an all-expense-paid trip to Rome to preach the gospel before Caesar.
“And the following day they entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends” (Acts 10:24 NKJV).
The Roman centurion, Cornelius, had sent for the apostle Peter and upon hearing that he was on the way, he “called together his relatives and close friends” to meet and hear him. Cornelius wanted everyone he cared about to hear the gospel. Have you invited your relatives and friends to hear the gospel? Have you “called” them to come with you to follow Jesus?
“For he supposed that his brethren would have understood that God would deliver them by his hand, but they did not understand” (Acts 7:25 NKJV).
Stephen’s defense before the Jewish council was amazing in its span and understanding of Jewish history. He offered a condensed version of the Old Testament story starting with Abraham and steadily progressing to the 1st Century time of Jesus. But it wasn’t just a summary. It offered profound spiritual insights on the ancient faith story.
Consider the Moses part of the story. Here, Stephen described not only the facts of Moses’ life, but his motivations. Stephen described Moses as being aware of his God-given calling to be the deliverer of Israel when he was only 40 years old. So, when he fled to Midian after killing the Egyptian, he wasn’t just fleeing Pharoah’s judgment, he was fleeing God’s call.
Stephen’s commentary on the Old Testament helps us understand the storyline from God’s perspective. He establishes the best practice for our reading today. For the best way to understand the Old Testament is through the lens of the New Testament and through the person of Jesus.
Stephen tried to help the Jewish council understand that their history had always pointed to Jesus, that He was the fulfillment of their Hebrew Scriptures. Yet, they would not believe. And they sentenced Stephen to be stoned to death.
“Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word” (Acts 6:3-4 NKJV).
It didn’t take long for the early church to experience the complaints of its members. The apostles had apparently started a food distribution ministry to the widows, but the church had grown so rapidly that the size of the task had become overwhelming. Plus, the Greek background believers complained that the Jewish background believers were neglecting their widows. What began as a complaint about unfair food distribution had become an accusation against the apostles of racism.
Depending on how the apostles responded, this problem could have either split the early church or severely slowed it down. If they had turned a deaf ear to the complaint and done nothing to address it, the disunity probably would have split the church. But if they had focused the work of the apostles on working at the tables to distribute food fairly, then they would have neglected their true calling, namely, the ministry of the Word and prayer, which would have severely slowed the growth of the church.
However, the apostles responded wisely, gathering the people together, they asked for seven men to be appointed as “deacons” (Greek: diakonos – “servant”) to administer the widow ministry and to address the disunity. In this way, they wisely delegated this ministry, so that they didn’t neglect their own ministry calling.
The first-century church offers a wise paradigm for ministry in the 21st-century church. It is wise to set apart certain ministers to focus on caring for the physical needs of the flock. But it is equally wise to set apart pastors who are to focus on preaching and teaching the Word and praying for the flock. Both are needed in the church today. | 2019-04-20T06:43:01 | https://www.garycombs.org/blog/scripture-book/acts/page/5?from_page=browse-by-scripture&post-type-filter=all |
Blade Arcus from Shining EX, a fighting game featuring characters from SEGA’s Shining series, has been announced to be coming west to the PC through Steam thanks to the developer Studio Saisenzen, who is also acting as publisher. The game originally released in Japan in late November of 2015 for the PS3 and PS4 and was published by SEGA. Fans of the original Genesis/Mega Drive era games should put a damper on their excitement as the Shining characters appearing in this game are from the recent titles in the series. Still, it is very cool to see titles that typically would never release west receiving localizations. The game will be re-titled Blade Arcus from Shining: Battle Arena and is set to release on July 28th.
You can learn all about the game on the Steam page, and stay tuned to SEGAbits for a potential review once the game releases. | 2019-04-25T11:22:13 | http://segabits.com/blog/2016/07/16/blade-arcus-from-shining-ex-releasing-to-pc-on-july-28th-in-the-west/ |

SAN JOSE — Nestled in a back corner of Kelley Park off Phelan Avenue and Senter Road, Allan Greenberg squinted at a radiator on a Ford Model TT belonging to the Santa Clara Fire Department while his colleague, Bob Meneely, munched on a Snicker’s bar. The radiator had been overheating, and despite weeks of tweaking, nothing worked.
But Greenberg, and a random assortment of other retired men who meet every Thursday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the shop, refused to give up. The group, who work in a cavernous metal garage filled with electric saws and paint cans, restore antique vehicles for historical groups and law enforcement agencies, from an 1887 Studebaker Wagon and a 1905 Fire Chief’s Cadillac for the San Jose Fire Museum to a horse cart for the Saratoga Historic Museum. Some of the guys even own Model Ts.
And despite their extensive work on restoring vehicles, none of them came from such a background.
Meneely was an engineer at NASA, Frank Dorr worked in construction, Ed Del Prete, who is often found doodling sketches of project designs on pieces of paper at a bench in the middle of the shop, was a graphic designer. Greenberg worked at IBM for 30 years as an engineer.
But each man’s hobbies or their unique talents bring something crucial to their weekly meetings. Be it woodwork, carpentry or painting, somehow everybody’s abilities weld together to help restore beautiful pieces that would otherwise have been left to rot in scrap yards.
Each project that the group works on can take months, sometimes years to complete, and none of the men are paid. The projects they work on aren’t funded either, and most of the time, the group will find discarded pieces of wood or metal or brings tools, nails and screws from home to help complete a piece that would have otherwise languished until some amount of money was donated.
“Beg, borrow, steal. That’s how we get things done,” Dorr joked.
While the group waits their next project to arrive — a 1932 Twin Coach Model 15 bus, which is set to get to San Jose sometime in April — the men will continue to tinker on the pesky radiator on the Model TT and dabble in other projects that may come along. | 2019-04-23T14:40:41 | https://www.mercurynews.com/2015/01/22/san-jose-restoration-volunteers-bring-antiques-back-to-life-for-silicon-valley/ |

I finally finished painting, labelling and varnishing the 1/6000th scale French World War 1 fleet. These were being painted for John in California. I opted for the simple French mid-grey scheme that the vessels were using in the later way period.
I also looked at “bronzing” one turret (A-turret or Z-turret), at least on the battleships and larger cruisers to account for the French disciplinary practice of having sailors paint a turret in used cooking oil when they were found guilty of a charge. I tried on one vessel and the result was that it was not really visible in this scale, so went just straight grey for the fleet.
The vessels come from Figurehead – from Noble Miniatures in the US and Magister Militum in the UK.
The detail on the vessels really is quite remarkable given their size. I would also recommend that when painting them, use a shade of grey two or three shades lighter than required and then use a black ink wash over the vessel to bring out that detail.
A close-up(ish) of some of the vessels.
The close-up will give you an idea of the amount of detail present on the vessels.
You will notice that I opted for white canvas covers to the ships boats. The French used, as far as I can tell, a grey cover however I am assuming a sun-bleached grey that is white here. It is an aesthetic thing to bring out that extra detail and make it visible.
I do not have a sea surface to photograph on here in Singapore so the cutting mat has to do – the square are 1 cm square so yes, some of the vessels are less than 2cm long.
I know John has a US, British and German fleet still to paint up but after doing the French, Italians, Austrians, Turks, Greeks, Russians (both main fleets) and the Japanese Mediterranean Squadron, I’m not sure I want to paint any more 1/6000th ships. The feeling is compounded by knowing that the US was experimenting with dazzle patterns as a camouflage during the First World War. I’ll see how I feel in a few weeks time.
In the meantime, I will have a pleasant evening sitting in the man cave tonight, wireless on, air-con on, cup of tea in hand and starting to ponder what actually will be the next project!
Well sticking with the French theme, how about Napoleonic?
Yeah…as I am one-handed at the moment I am thinking “little wars” level of painting.
I have noticed that these days it is easier to get good ratlines and such for 1/1200th so even the Navwar ships with a bit of work – standing rigging and ratlines in particular – would look OK. Adding the running rigging seems almost a step too far for my skills although I guess you never know until you try. | 2019-04-23T16:52:51 | https://thomo.coldie.net/2013/05/06/finished-the-ww1-french-are-launched-to-the-us/ |
It can be challenging to differentiate yourself to a potential employer, given the competitive nature of the job market. Focusing on the important topics when writing your resume and cover letter is essential to earning that coveted in-person interview.
Quantify your accomplishments and contributions to the organization. How much did sales increase while you worked in your position? How many clients did you bring onto the account? Information like this resonates with potential employers.
2. Know how to properly identify accomplishments/achievements/honors/awards.
3. Know the proper place for presenting accomplishments.
For your resume: Accomplishments should complement relevant work experience on your resume. Consider bolding the tangible statistics you cite to make them stand out more to potential employers.
For your cover letter: Don't go overboard. You don't have much room to begin with on your cover letter, so explain how your experience matches the position, and provide the achievement as an example of why you would be a great fit.
4. Adopt an approach of humble confidence.
It's important not to appear pompous when presenting achievements in your resume or cover letter. At the same time, it's also important not to undersell yourself. Landing in the middle will make the best impression with potential employers. When selling your accomplishments, stick to the facts and don't sugarcoat anything.
5. Keep an "accomplishments" file on your computer.
This may sound odd, but a spreadsheet file of accomplishments will make more productive use of your time. Unless you have a remarkable memory, it can be difficult to remember every accomplishment from every job you've had. Keep a spreadsheet on your computer, organized by job, to easily keep track of your accomplishments.
Do you have any more tips about presenting accomplishments in your portfolio? Let us know in the comments section below. | 2019-04-26T07:59:30 | https://www.grantham.edu/blog/5-tips-presenting-achievements-resume-cover-letter/ |
The city then the masses.
Excellent link, [sctld]. For some reason, I kept wanting to translate "car-free" to care-free, as in Carefree, Arizona. Obviously, you've borowed from Carefree's long-term masterplan.
...which leads eventually to the neccesity of replacing the old design with a new one. Large parts of Paris underwent reconstruction according to a central design by Baron von Hausmann (how on earth did someone with such a German name get such a big job in Paris, and did it have anything to do with the meaning of his name?). A big problem was that they had to just mow down the existing medieval city to put in the new one, but what they built was a big improvement in many ways. Too bad cars weren't a problem then, or Paris might now be a car-free city.
Come to think of it, I'm not sure the car-free part isn't as important as, or even more important than the pre-planned part. Venice was hardly pre-planned, and even has a relatively poor mass transport system, but there's still an atmosphere much more conducive to the enjoyment of life than in most cities. I think if more people had a chance to experience the ambiance and lifestyle in a car-free environment, there'd be more support for the costs required to implement it in at least some areas.
And it's not the pollution or cost or danger that makes the big difference (noise is part of it, though). I think the big problem with cars in a city is that they isolate their occupants from the "real life" of simply walking down the street and being aware of and open to the people and storefronts and aromas and sound as surface textures of the city.
I lived in Paris for two years without a car and never regretted it. Paris is excellent for this kind of thing as local shops and restaurants seem to abound in whatever direction you walk. Driving there is sheer chaos and as an adopted Parisian I would often be stopped by confused Americans in cars seeking directions.
The UK is getting worse, although I'm fortunate to be able to walk both to an out-of-town supermarket and the town centre. We also have enough zebra crossings (where pedestrians have right of way) and pavements to make life tolerable on foot.
There are all sorts of examples of pre-planned cities in the world... Brasilia, Washington DC... I believe Canberra? I don't know if any of them approach this idea, though.
Large-scale city planning was very much in fashion for a while, I think mostly from the late 1800s through the early 1900s. Lots of cities built or rebuilt during that period are laid out along partially-ignored grand master plans.
The second half of juxtaposin's idea, though, is less about planning the city than running it under a totalitarian government, with the entire city being essentially private property and the residents living there only at the whim of the management. To this I say: ick, although I know some people who would like living there.
"for our non-US friends, I know crime may not be that big of an issue"
This surprises me; rather a chicken-vs-egg comment, I think. It was pointed out to me recently that European democracies rely on social programmes which attempt to prevent crime and re-integrate offenders into society, rather than fund penitentiary programmes which accept that it is realistic to have three percent* of the population in jail (many long-term) at any one time. How would one find out which countries of the world have the largest prison population, long- or short-term?
* it was either three or one percent, but out of the 300m of that population, both are a huge number.
In principle, this is a very cool idea. I carefully examine the layout of the city and determine a maximum walking distance between subway stops and then always adhere to it. Further, I would make sure that it is faster to take the subway then any other mode of transportation (except flying). i.e. unlike certain places in Boston where it is faster to walk from point A to B rather than take a train to the center of town and then another train out again.
As for the loss of personal freedom, I'm all for it if it gives us a more safe city. But make the ID cards something hard to steal. Like retinal scans, or infra-red scans that check the vasculature of your face.
Also - make sure that while you heavily plan the roadways you include special designed lanes or enclosed mini-roads for bikers. This way yet another mode of transport would be encouraged because it is safe.
um... no. its just wrong. sp I fishbone this.
maybe convert a disused maximum security jail, fill it with the most lush and luxurious stuff and lock all the rich paranoid people in there! then the rest of us can get on with creating some culture.
Melbourne, Australia was planned like this. Er, up until cars were invented that is. You can still live quite happily in the inner suburbs without a car thanks to the great 19th century transport system we're still using.
A combination of the two? No thanks.
As noted, some planned cities are quite amenable to pedestrian traffic.
However, some unplanned cities are also quite fine as car-free areas.
Frankly, the planned city part is baked, overbaked, and widely known to exist.
Due to housing laws in the U.S. it is illegal to discriminate against living where one pleases. Your background check would be illegal.
As far as the second part: a properly planned city ought to be able to largely do away with police, fines, and funding problems. Yours therefore is clearly not a well-planned city.

Mortar entrepreneurial graduates will serve Cambodian tacos and soul food on the patio.
When the bar with the big courtyard at 208 E.12th St. was Neon's, there was a succession of ways to give patrons something to eat. Be it cookouts or tacos or crawfish boils. It was one of the ways of to make the neighborhood bar a good place to hang out for a whole evening.
MaHope will make their Cambodian tacos with green papaya sauce on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On Wednesday and Thursday, Paityn's Place Soul Food will sell snacks like nachos with pork or chicken or vegetables and macaroni and cheese on Wednesday and Thursday.
There's a public introduction to both food stands on Saturday, March 31 from 4-8 p.m. Thereafter, they'll operate from 4-10 p.m. and when the weather is warmer, start earlier in the day.
MORTAR is a business incubator focused on helping non-traditional entrepreneurs, primarily in Over-the-Rhine and Walnut Hills.
"When I first heard about Mortar, I thought this could be really cool, " said Bob Deck, one of the owners of 3EG. "We're not taking any money from this, there's no lease. It's a way for us to give a hand-up to somebody who needs it."
They have refurbished the outdoor bar and included a permanent grill. They've also fixed up the bocce courts and added some antique cast-iron lights from Music Hall.
It's not easy taking over a bar like Neon's that was such a fixture in the neighborhood and pivotal in the redevelopment of Main Street.

Each year in the U.S., more than 30,000 people are diagnosed with oral cancer. Oral cancer is cancer that develops in any part of the mouth. Anyone can get oral cancer, but the risk is higher if you're male, drink too much alcohol, smoke, or have or have a history of neck or head cancer. Ajax Dental Centre, which is located in Ajax, ON, offers oral cancer screenings to their patients. Dr. Saeid Jafarpour, Dr. Kevin Kwong, and Dr. Azza Elhaddad are some of the top dentists in Ajax, ON. Here are some common symptoms of oral cancer.
1. White/Red Patches in Mouth- Oral cancer may start as a white or red patch in the mouth or throat. White patches are called leukoplakia. Red patches are called erythroplakia. White patches sometimes become malignant. Red patches often become malignant. Mixed red and white patches are more likely than white patches to become malignant.
2. Sores That Don't Heal- One of the symptoms of oral cancer includes a mouth sore that does not heal. Most cases of spots in the mouth are not oral cancer. Canker sores usually heal within a couple of weeks, so any sore in your mouth that lasts longer needs a professional evaluation. If you notice a mouth sore and it doesn't disappear in a few weeks, see your Ajax, ON, dentist as soon as possible.
3. Lumps Inside the Mouth- Signs and symptoms of oral cancer may also include unexplained, persistent lumps, bumps, or masses in the mouth that don't go away. Any lump or mass in your mouth that lasts longer needs a professional evaluation. Lumps inside the mouth can have numerous causes, including traumatic injuries, a bacterial infection or localized abscess, or a cyst of the jaw. Make an appointment with your dentist if you notice a lump in your mouth that doesn't disappear in two weeks.
4. Eating Problems- Difficulty chewing often results from changes to the tongue, mouth, or jaw. Oral cancer may cause this. Oral cancer can also cause swallowing problems. Dysphagia is the medical term used to describe difficulty swallowing. A person with oral cancer may gag, cough, choke or feel pain when trying to swallow. See your dentist if you're having trouble chewing or swallowing.
Ready to take control of your health? If you need to get an oral cancer screening, call Ajax Dental Centre at 905-426-8304 today to schedule an appointment in Ajax, ON. Oral cancer can be serious and sometimes even deadly. If a doctor finds and treats it early, it can be curable. A simple oral cancer screening could save your life. | 2019-04-23T21:54:56 | https://www.ajaxdentalcentre.com/blog/date/2018-07-01.html |

First responders must be able to communicate during an emergency. Too often in critical situations, communications among public safety agencies are hampered by interoperability problems. NIST’s Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) program is helping technology vendors determine how they can best meet the unique needs of the public safety community.
NIST brings together dozens of communications vendors and hundreds of first responders to support the development of communications technologies for public safety. Based in part on test bed evaluations, NIST works with industry organizations to get public safety requirements included in next-generation (LTE) communications standards, and contributes data to support standards for the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet), an independent authority created to establish and operate a nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network.
NIST is partnering with communication technology vendors, including Motorola Solutions, Nokia and Cisco, to evaluate how new technologies can augment existing LTE system capabilities and enhance public safety. Through these partnerships, NIST built one of the most vendor-diverse LTE test networks in the world.
LTE is the latest commercial wireless communications standard but needs to meet public safety mission critical requirements. NIST’s LTE test network allows NIST and its partners to test and improve features critical to public safety and FirstNet such as audio quality in harsh noise environments and ensuring priority service to first responders. This has allowed companies to better understand public safety needs and refine their products and services to meet those needs. | 2019-04-18T19:29:29 | https://www.nist.gov/industry-impacts/first-responder-communications |
Anne Sholes, 53, a neurosurgeon, was riding her bicycle in a bicycle lane to work when a Solano County employee operating a box truck, struck her from behind. Dr. Sholes suffered a broken back and a fractured left leg and ankle.
She underwent multiple surgeries to repair her back and leg, including replacement of hardware. She then required extensive physical therapy, hyperbaric chamber treatments, and acupuncture. Dr. Sholes’ medical expenses totaled $270,000.
Dr. Sholes was earning $400,000 annually as a neurosurgeon. She returned to work as a physician advisor two years after the incident, but her salary was reduced to $75,000 per year.
Dr. Sholes sued the county alleging respondeat superior liability for its driver’s negligence. The defendant admitted that the driver was in the course and scope of his employment when he struck Dr. Sholes, but disputed that she was unable to return to work as a neurosurgeon.
At a mediation, the case settled for $14 million.
The attorneys successfully handling this case were Gregory Patton and Holly Mossier.
The Dr. Sholes’s attorneys engaged experts in rehabilitation and neurosurgery. The defendant hired an expert in rehabilitation.

Since the Renaissance, most art has been prized because of the prodigious skills that went into its making. Why would any artist choose to work with slides?
It’s tempting to see slide projection as quick and easy. Indeed, many artists cite these qualities when explaining their initial attraction to the medium. But the process can be complicated, involving not only the creation of the transparency itself but also its arrangement, projected scale, and timing. A single carousel may contain as many as eighty images that must be numbered and ordered, a task that grows all the more complicated with the addition of each new slide grouping. When we rediscovered a piece by one of the performance artists in the exhibition, I thought he was going to cry. The prospect of putting the whole complex thing back together was painful, even though he was delighted to see his work again. Of course, slide projection is low-tech and notoriously accident-prone. But I think the medium owes a lot of its immediacy to its tendency as an apparatus to jam, to burn out a bulb, to turn a well-planned show into a logistical nightmare. Good art often courts disaster.
Is the development of slide art connected to the ferment of the 60s?
During the 1960s and 1970s, public projection of slides became a vehicle for social and political activism. Slide projection’s portability made this possible, enabling artists (Krzysztof Wodiczko, for example) to project powerful, challenging images onto public buildings. When Lucy Lippard wanted to publicize the exclusion of women from the Whitney Annual of 1970, she projected slides against the surface of the museum to protest its curatorial policies. This application of slides as critical commentary had historical precedents: in the 1880s, the photographer Jacob Riis used slides of the urban poor to arouse the concern of people who might have been able to help.
Did the strong associations of slides with family entertainment have any impact on the ways artists adapted the medium?
The fact that the medium promotes a collective viewing experience is important for both artists and popular users. The act of looking at images, especially still photographs, generally involves a single spectator and a stationary object, but with slides you are often sitting in the same room with other people, sharing the experience with them. People who watch Nan Goldin’s The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, for example, find themselves on the same emotional roller coaster. It’s like the family slide show in a way; people participate in a joint emotional response to images of past events. Of course, the memories and feelings such a work stimulates are different for everyone, and that is the reason The Ballad is such a great piece. Marcel Proust as well as Ingmar Bergman have called attention to the mesmerizing power of the magic lantern shows they saw as children.
Is there any connection between those shows and slide shows by such artists as Dennis Oppenheim or James Coleman?
Projection is a mysterious process that evokes all kinds of fantasies. The ancient meaning of the term “to project” is related to the alchemical process for changing base metal into gold. Nearly every artist I interviewed remembers being fascinated by shadows on the wall as a kid, or lying in the dark using the beam of a flashlight to make patterns in the darkness. An artist like James Coleman extends this magical experience to viewers by manipulating the transformative properties of slides as images that are not quite real; indeed, the projections themselves are totally intangible. But all the works in the exhibition invite viewers to read meaning into translucent pictures.
Is slide technology a thing of the past?
Over the past five years, at least, PowerPoint presentations have supplanted slide shows. PowerPoint facilitates overlays, dissolves, syncopated fades, and collage. As consumers, we have become accustomed to a barrage of images and are easily bored. No matter how fancy your equipment, slide projection will always seem a slower, more regulated process. Slides and slide projectors are generally a monocular form of vision and, though users can combine projectors to multiply the frames they project, it is rare that people—including artists—use more than two. And please remember: anyone who would like to use a projector must go to the secondhand market. The last slide projector was manufactured in September 2004.
How does the book SlideShow relate to the SlideShow exhibition?
I am not trying to replicate the exhibition in a book; that’s impossible! The book cannot but give its reader a visual experience radically different from that afforded viewers of the exhibition. I think of the book SlideShow as a document, an expansion, a reflection, an interrogation of SlideShow the exhibition.

3. Next Slide, Please . . .
What makes a slide qualify as art?
SlideShow attempts to respond to this basic question by first acknowledging that slide projection has been many other things: a means of family entertainment, a way to teach art history, a vehicle for political agitation. Of course, people have always used slides creatively, and many a talented projectionist achieved the lauded status of savoyard during the eighteenth century for producing elaborate shows and spectacular effects using glass slides. Even a masterfully executed display of vacation snapshots may be artful. But at what point does skill give way to what we self-consciously define as art? When did slide projection move from the living room to the art gallery?
To address these issues is to evaluate the terms used to classify art, which may either incorporate or rule out a “popular” medium like slide projection, with its multilayered ties to commerce. Slides have, for much of their history, occupied a place in the marketing and entertainment industries—highly visible outlets, to be sure, but distinct from the traditional realms of fine art. But when the hierarchies of art came under attack in the 1960s, these high/low divisions dissipated, making room for new formats and ideas previously excluded from artistic practice. Artists found this both a great relief and a challenge. Many welcomed the opportunity to leave painting and sculpture behind, but what options stood in their place? Some artists drew from the familiar stuff of their lives, incorporating found objects, reproductions, and fugitive materials into their artworks. Others turned to readily available technologies for inspiration. Slide projection was one such outlet, a standard tool of the art trade that seemed to offer tremendous creative potential, especially for those looking to animate (and automate) their images. Indeed, in the increasingly hospitable climate for moving images established in the 1960s, slide projection bridged aspects of still photography and film in a distinct and meaningful way.
An extremely heterogeneous medium, slides could be adapted to a wide range of applications at a time when artists sought unusual visual combinations and attributes in their works. A painting requires a degree of finality, but a slide projection can be reinvented each time it is shown, with new and different images switching in and out according to specific needs. Magnification, speed of delivery, and sequence become variables of the medium; artists can manipulate and tweak them at any stage of the process. This flexibility generated widespread experimentation with the process itself, resulting in works that could just as easily reside in a live theater as an art gallery—a blurring of lines that artists welcomed.
The title of this exhibition, SlideShow, recognizes the viewer’s experience of watching slides as well as the artist’s experience of formulating and ordering them. Though a slide itself is often an image, a slide show is a phenomenon, an event that occurs at a specific time and for a designated purpose. Anyone old enough to remember slides may find it difficult to think of the medium without immediately conjuring up specific moments spent observing bright pictures flash on a screen, be it in a classroom or a hotel lobby. These are the sites of slides, the ways in which they are made physical by machine projection. For artists, showing slides involves a process of envisioning how they will look as pictures inside architecture and, in some cases, surrounded by sound. No wonder, then, that the earliest work in slide projection focused on the particulars of mediation. How does an image change depending on where it is sequenced in a larger progression? In what ways do single images contribute to the overall effect of multiple ones? These issues affected both how artists conceived their works and what demands they placed on audience reception. The fact that slide projectors are optical devices that inform (and sometimes complicate) perception provides an underlying theme for many of the works in this exhibition.
SlideShow includes nineteen installations at various levels of scale and complexity. Some, like Nan Goldin’s Ballad of Sexual Dependency, a personal story of sorts, are presented in closed environments. Others, like Jan Dibbets’s six-carousel piece Land/Sea, relate directly to the architecture and thus to the surrounding environment of the spectator. Despite the range of works on view and their relative familiarity (or unfamiliarity) to general audiences, a historical structure linking them to Conceptualism, performance, and narrative art runs throughout. These categories are necessarily loose, as slide projection enables the mixing and matching of many different elements and themes. The more recent works, for example, are noticeably nostalgic in tone: they reflect on the use of slide projection as a vernacular medium as well as one with ties to 1960s–1970s Conceptualism. Exhibition visitors will observe that earlier works are largely single-carousel projections; later pieces are comparatively more complex. As projected imagery in art received more competition from the sped-up world of commerce, opportunities for both critique and a new look emerged, resulting in a growing emphasis on scale, sound, and color saturation in the production of slide works today.
This publication documents works and artists in the exhibition and analyzes the larger themes and histories they represent. In the introductory essay, I outline major developments in the art of slide projection, focusing on its oscillating status as a form of photography, a distinct medium in itself, and—as one artist put it—“a cheap way to make a film.” I also pay special attention to the beginnings of slide projection as a contemporary art practice, looking in particular at the question of why so many artists more or less simultaneously chose slides, expanding their applications of the medium far beyond mere illustration and documentation. Charles Harrison’s essay, “Saving Pictures,” examines the changing parameters of art during the 1960s and 1970s, noting the erosion of hierarchical distinctions within traditionally distinct genres and the gradual loss of the “frame” that renders art autonomous, unique, and authentic. Slide projection, he proposes, represents a “detachment from the cultural status quo with intangibility and physical impermanence of imagery.” Taking a different tack, Robert Storr’s “Next Slide, Please . . .” concentrates on slides as the “common coin” of the art world—artifacts that historians and artists rely on to tell their stories, illustrate their points, and disseminate their material. In some ways, the leap from practical necessity to creative possibility would seem to be an obvious one for artists, but the transition also meant dealing with the very specific nature of the slide-as-medium. These essays are followed by detailed entries on the individual works in the exhibition, written by Rhea Anastas, Thom Collins, David Little, Molly Warnock, and me. Each entry offers an analysis of the piece in question and its role in the artist’s overall body of work. Together, the elements of the book complement one another and even, at times, mark differences of opinion and attitude. By taking a variety of approaches, the texts open up diverse avenues of thought, yielding new insights into their common subject.
Writing on the subject of slide projection in post-1960s art occurs, with odd serendipity, at the moment that slide projectors are being rendered obsolete. Last September, a memo from Kodak went out to all interested parties announcing the official termination of the standard slide projector, an apparatus that has projected and reproduced images for generations of audiences. Now we are in the position of posthumously examining slide projection as art, a task that requires an assessment of particular individuals as well as the historical circumstances that determined, in part, their changing applications of slide technology. We notice, for example, a growing interest in continuity and imagistic flow in later slide works replacing an earlier fixation on the still image as the structural foundation of slide projection. This shift toward steady, seamless images is now apparent elsewhere in our lives, as visual stimuli endlessly stream into our homes and work environments over cable and telephone wires. How do we—as consumers of popular culture—separate and edit this vast array of information? Where does the still image fit within these increasingly complicated networks? The termination of slide projection as such may signal the end of an era; it may also represent the culmination of a wider investigation into the transience of images and the fleeting nature of perceptual experience. Indeed, what accelerates may eventually disappear. Though the history of slide projection may be over, the analysis has just begun. | 2019-04-22T23:59:29 | http://www.psupress.org/books/titles/0-271-02541-7.html |
We believe that the human practice that arises from the human based perspective is subject to a number of processes and activities, such as an understanding of context and of the value and meaning attributed to personal experience. This can be significantly enhanced with the development of a range of humanistic meta-skills which support our critical and cultural analysis and understanding and from which meaning can be built. Extensive research across a range of individuals, groups and approaches supports our case and we are now using these ideas and practices to develop better and more impactful services.
To better understand the application of this alternative, humanistic and multidisciplinary approach we need to reference the way we as individuals live and operate within our society and through community. Whether isolated, estranged or integrated we all operate within communities, whether they be micro- or macro-geographical communities, or communities of profession or interest. Some of us are relatively limited and static in the communities of which we are members, some belong to multiple communities and move seamlessly between them.
We are not only advocating the need to understand this so that individuals are better able to understand themselves but also suggesting that (current and future) communities represent the places in which we live out and “practice” our current habits, tactics and strategies for living. We are convinced that these same communities, with support and education, could represent spaces in which individuals are much better able to help themselves and each other to live more fulfilled, less distressed and more meaningful lives.
In this new dialogue – or polylogue – between people inhabiting different communities of practice, regardless of type or location, individuals struggling with their mental health and differing levels of distress can bring the rich experience of their life to the conversation. This can be shared as a story, bringing meaning and sense to their experience of life and that when combined with other, helpful narratives can create more positive and personally meaningful actions and activity.
Communities need to have a conversation that comprehensively connects all of the social, economic and political aspects of a life, that impact on the links between the public and the personal. This is just as important as dealing with embodied distress and/or living with poverty.
Within the current monologue-centric paradigm there exists an explicit and unhelpful power imbalance. The “professionals” (GPs, psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists, etc.) take control of the situation with their dominant narrative. By contrast, within the dialogue paradigm, professionals have value and insight but their experience and understanding are explored in tandem with individuals’ personal narratives, contexts and their community of practice – i.e. the place in which they have developed, live and will continue to operate and hopefully thrive.
The dialogue paradigm has no prescribed “right” answers and no associated psychiatric labels. Rather, it requires the creation of ongoing personal plans and resolutions based on enquiry, reflection, discovery and sense making. | 2019-04-21T06:47:51 | https://hartlepoolmind.co.uk/index.php/the-bigger-picture/the-bigger-picture-2 |

I promised myself I would not turn in to one of those tedious bloggers who actually write about their job. For some reason, academics seem to think this is ok, while most of the civilized world understands no one wants blogs about accountanting, or law talking, but rather accountants and lawyers yammering about their obsessions with clog dancing or model railroads, or the Olsen twins. But I will break that rule to share the following. Keen readers will have noted that the Fesser is embroiled in teaching some sort of intensive lit survey that meets 3hrs/day 6/days a week. Two weeks of this count as a regular course, which is a travesty, but they pay you. B/c of the length of the class, there are snack breaks, and the students take turns bringing in snacks. Yesterday, we discussed Upton Sinclair's The Jungle. At the first break, after going over the descriptions of the meatpacking plant, I contributed 1 Slim Jim / student to the snack. They ate them all, I was disappointed to see, but they did read the ingredients. Maybe next time, they will wonder about "snapping into" "mechanically separated chicken." Baby steps. More soon--think the count might have reset the analogy machine for me!
There's a reason I don't eat hot dogs.

WRI President and CEO Dr. Andrew Steer testifies before the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.
As climate negotiations got underway in Paris, climate politics intensified in Washington on Tuesday, where the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology convened a hearing with a tell-tale title: "Pitfalls of Unilateral Negotiations at the Paris Climate Change Conference."
Committee Chairman Lamar Smith did not mince words about his intentions. “Today’s hearing will demonstrate that the President’s UN climate pledge is destructive to the American economy and would produce no substantive environmental benefits” he said. (See House video starting at 7:40).
As the majority party, Republicans set the agenda and invited three witnesses: Oren Cass, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research; Andrew Grossman, an associate at Baker & Hollister, a law firm; and Bjorn Lomborg, president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center.
The fourth witness was WRI President and CEO Andrew Steer.
“Finally, climate-smart policies also reduce the negative impact on growth of climate change itself, which, unchecked will be very substantial,” Steer said.
He added that synergies between climate action and growth explain the growing number of corporations that are urging bold action in Paris and adopting science-based targets for reducing their own emissions; and why 360 cities worldwide—including more than 100 in the United States—have signed on to the Compact of Mayors, committing to track and reduce their emissions.
It also explains, he said, why India Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set the goal of massively raising India’s solar capacity from its current level of 4 gigawatts (GW) to 100 GW by 2022. “He didn’t do this because he’s a member of the Sierra Club, but because he rightly believes that it will benefit his nation’s economy,” Steer added.
“We have analyzed more than a dozen recent studies that added up the contributions of INDCs. They put us on track for a world that warms by 2.7-3.7°C over the next century, depending on modelling assumptions, compared to 4-5°C of warming under a business as usual path. This is significant progress, but not enough,” he said.
As for whether the U.S. administration can deliver on the emissions-reduction pledges it has put forward ahead of Paris, Steer cited recent WRI research, Delivering on the U.S. Climate Commitment, that shows several pathways to get there.
I wish I could report that Steer’s testimony changed hearts and minds of those who had called the hearing. If it did, the impact was not evident.
A rhetorical high point came when Lomborg asserted that climate-associated sea level rise would not be a major problem, even in low-lying, highly populated developing countries like Bangladesh, because people would build levies, as the Dutch have done, prompting an incredulous response from one of the minority party congressmen.
Later that day, the House was scheduled to follow the Senate in voting to block the Clean Power Plan (CPP) that is at the heart of President Obama’s climate action plan and thus, of the ambitious pledges that the United States is putting forward in Paris. Obama has said he will veto the bills.
In doing so he would appear to have the broad support of the American people: This week, a new New York Times/CBS News Poll found that two-thirds of Americans want the United States to join a Paris climate change pact.

Happy New Year, everyone! The passing of 2016 marks fifteen months since we decided to leave our pampered, Silicon Valley lives and return to Alberta to start a brewery, and this past year has been a huge one for all of us, full of highs and lows. In the first part of this article, I will talk about the people and places we’ve visited throughout 2016, and then I’ll give some updates about the recipes we’ve been working on, as well as status updates for our location search.
While still in California in early 2016, we spent a lot of time developing and expanding our vision for the brewery, created financial projections and cost estimates (which have since doubled twice over), and researched the rapidly changing Alberta market as much as possible from a remote position, but we knew we needed boots on the ground before we would really get a sense of what was happening and understand the community here.
Laura and I arrived in Calgary in April of 2016 and set to work visiting other local breweries and familiarizing ourselves with the local beer scene. It was amazing to see how much things had evolved in the four years since we left; in early 2012, Calgary only had a few well known breweries – Big Rock, Wild Rose, and Brewsters, and only one of them was significantly packaging beer at the time (now all three have large packaging operations). When we returned, Village and Tool Shed had only been open a short time but had already become pillars of the brewing community, and newer breweries like Dandy were gaining notoriety for their fearless creativity and use of unusual ingredients. Last Best also opened while we were away; we were so happy to finally be able to visit the brewpub and have an opportunity to chat with Phil Bryan about the operation in the early Summer.
First visit to Common Crown Brewing Co here in Calgary. Right out of the gate, they are already making very tasty, high-quality beer.
Since we arrived, we have attended the openings of several breweries around town. One of those was the Trolley no. 5 brewpub on 17th Avenue, where we were lucky enough to bump into owner/operator Ernie Tsu, who provided us with a lot of good information and helpful industry contacts. Late in the year we also observed the opening of the Mill St. Brewpub on 17th Ave, giving Trolley 5 and Last Best some healthy competition. We also attended the openings of Banded Peak, High Line, Common Crown, and Half Hitch in Cochrane (pre-opening), and have enjoyed beers from Boiling Oar and Cold Garden, two new Calgary breweries that are currently not open to the public but have beer on tap at other fine craft beer establishments. We were also lucky enough to try some of Patrick Schnarr’s beer as he was preparing to launch Outcast Brewing, which is now available on draught at select locations, and to visit Canmore Brewing Company as their equipment was being installed. We also spent a great morning out in Bragg Creek with Baruch Laskin, a founder of the upcoming Bragg Creek Brewing and one of the friendliest guys you could ever meet. Finally, we attended the launch of Andrew Bullied’s Annex Ales Project craft soda line, which currently consists of a delicious non-alcoholic root beer.
Speaking of Annex Ales Project, we look forward to seeing their production brewery opening very soon (follow them on social media to stay in the know about their opening date). 2017 is going to be a year full of brewery openings, and we also look forward to Caravel, Civil Beer Co, Goat Locker, Inner City, The Well, Zero Issue and several other rumoured breweries opening their doors around Calgary and Alberta this year.
Late in 2016, we joined the Cowtown Yeast Wranglers, Calgary’s only notable home-brew club, which was founded by former Wild Rose brewer David Neilly, who is still engaged in the club and working closely to help other local breweries get off the ground. We also met Andrew Ironmonger and spoke with his wife Erica Francis, who are both editors and publishers of the new and excellent Alberta Craft Beer Guide, and managed to get an entry into the “Sooneries and Rumories” section. Make sure to pick one of these up at your nearest craft brewery or beer establishment, as it is really well put together and has all the info you need to find the breweries in your area.
Prairie Dog Brewing is now featured in the Alberta Craft Beer Guide.
In 2016 we also met Matt and Joe Hamill, founders of Red Shed Malting, a craft micro-malting operation near Red Deer, and Chris and Jessica Fasoli, who have founded the Hobo Malt craft malting business and an ethically-produced pork operation near Irricana, and are planning on opening a full-blown brewing operation in Beiseker.
All along the way we’ve met some of the most friendly, down to earth people imaginable; people who are willing to help out and share information in any way they can. That is what the craft beer industry is all about — good people working together to make good beer, and that was what attracted us to start a brewery more than anything else. To summarize, the Alberta craft beer scene is healthy, vital, and positive, and we are excited to be a part of this brewing community and the overall business community here. The events of the year and the people we met along the way have solidified our belief that leaving California was the right thing to do.
Now for some updates from the past couple of months.
We are pleased to announce that we are now assembling an offer for another South Calgary location, this time in the Chinook Centre area. This location has a ton of potential as a retail establishment with a prominent corner location, lots of parking, and close proximity to the C-Train. We have also engaged Korr Design to help us vet properties and create a compelling offer to a potential landlord. Later, Korr will also help us build detailed plans for our space and layout. We have been thrilled by Korr’s level of knowledge, professionalism, and techniques so far.
Wish us luck in the offer process! Also, if you know of any spaces that you think would be an excellent brewery location in South Calgary, let us know.
Of all the beer recipes we’ve developed, our porter is probably the one we are most proud of. We designed this beer to sit on the English side of the spectrum, malty and easy to drink, finishing on the dryer side with plenty of dark chocolate and toasty flavour and aroma, as well as notes of caramel and yeast-derived stone-fruit esters. The beer tastes three dimensional, finishing with a different set of flavours than it starts with, taking the taster through a variety of taste sensations that beg for another sip. The beer clocks in at a respectable 5.5% ABV, making it possible to partake in a couple of these guilt-free.
Over the past few months we have brewed this recipe several times, and it is always a crowd-pleaser. To switch things up a bit, we decided to try splitting a batch of the porter into three, turning one of them into an bourbon-oaked blackberry porter, another into a peanut-butter chocolate porter, and keeping the third part unadulterated (see more about this in our previous status post). So, how did these beers turn out?
The oaked blackberry came out wildly different than the original porter. The oak and blackberry tartness changed the perception of the beer to being very dry, almost tannic like a red wine. The blackberry is not very noticeable in the flavour but there are hints of it in the aroma, which adds to the red-wine like quality of the beer, which still has plenty of chocolate and dark toasty flavour, as well. Several tasters enjoyed this beer, but we think it could use some development before we would consider putting it on tap at the brewpub.
The peanut butter chocolate porter was more complicated to make, requiring the addition of lactose, bourbon-soaked cocoa nibs, and PB2 peanut butter powder for a small secondary fermentation, as well as a couple weeks of additional aging for the flavours of bourbon and peanut to blend into the beer and the peanut butter powder to settle out completely. Between all the flavour additions and racking the beer off the peanut butter sludge, we lost about 1/5th of the volume of finished beer, limiting the quantity by quite a bit and making the beer even more expensive to produce (per litre). However, all that was worth it as the beer is quite fun to drink and has no shortage of nutty peanut flavour and a smooth, milky mouthfeel (like a milk stout). The goal for the beer was “peanut buster parfait”, and I think it really nails it. Some tasters felt like the peanut flavour was a little too intense, while others thought it was right on, and the chocolate flavour from the nibs was not very noticeable compared to the malt-derived flavours. We will likely brew this beer again in the future in a full-batch quantity, testing different amounts of peanut-butter powder in secondary fermentation and using malt entirely for the chocolate flavour rather than cocoa nibs.
One thing is for sure, it is very hard to believe that either of these variations started as the base porter, demonstrating the flexibility we brewers have to radically alter our beers post-fermentation. One important exception to that is the removal of undesirable off-flavours; a bad beer is a bad beer, no matter how you try to cover it up.
Berliner Weisse is a light, refreshing wheat beer style originating in Germany and notable for its strong lactic acidity. In its home country, the beer is often served with sweet fruit or herbal syrups that complement its tartness. At around 3% ABV, these beers are very easy to drink and thirst-quenching because the acidity avoids some of the palate fatigue associated with sweet maltiness (the same reason Coke is loaded with phosphoric and carbonic acids). Few breweries outside Germany have focused on making authentic-tasting Berliner Weisse, and we want to be one of them. To that end, we’ve been working on many iterations of our Berliner, experimenting with techniques for souring the beer with wild lactic acid, as well as playing with the malt components.
Our most recent batch was an improvement over prior ones in terms of the level of acidity resulting from our sour mash, but after the yeast fermented the beer, the pH levels came up significantly, and the beer was not anywhere close to as tart as we had hoped. However, the base malt flavours were quite enjoyable so we will probably not do a lot of tweaking to the malt-side of the recipe at this point. We already have another Berliner Weisse batch in our brewing schedule and will be taking another crack at this in February.
A hoppy West-Coast IPA is something we absolutely need to open with. Our brewing background started on the West Coast and we want to bring a little piece of that to Calgary in the form of our IPA. As such, this is a recipe that we’ve put a lot of work into over the past couple years. However, scaling a home-brew recipe up to commercial production has some complications, particularly with respect to access to ingredients. As a new brewery with no long-standing relationship with hop producers, and being a very small fish with little to no clout, we are going to be pretty much last in line for hops, which means that some of our favourites may not be available to us at a cost we can afford or in the quantities/freshness we desire for a mainstay beer. That has forced us to take a second look at our recipes and try a few different things with the hops to come up with alternate versions of our IPA. Fortunately, we were recently contacted by a Canadian hop supplier, who looks promising in terms of accessibility to some of the more exotic hops as well as their own Canadian-grown varieties, so wish us luck that we are able to do as hoped with our hops.
There is something mesmerizing about a copper-coloured beer like this #IPA we recently kegged off. I could stare at this #homebrew #beer all day long.
Our most recent batch of IPA was brewed in mid-November and disappeared very quickly (we have a few reference bottles of the beer, but the kegs ran out weeks ago). One could surmise from the pace of the beer disappearing that we are happy with this beer, but no, it has a way to go. We dry-hopped with a large hop bag, but we found out after we opened the fermenter to clean it (post-packaging) that the bag got caught up on the cooling coil and didn’t make adequate contact between the hops and the beer, explaining why the hop aroma came out quite weak on this beer. We had also tweaked the recipe to try to get some additional malt complexity and a darker copper colour, but the beer turned out darker than hoped, so further iterations are required (also an excuse to drink more IPA).
The Session Beer Project defines a Session Beer as being 4.5% ABV or lower in alcohol, flavourful, balanced such that multiple pints may be consumed without becoming either cloying or wrecking your palate, conducive to conversation, and reasonably priced. I like that definition because it gets at the point of the word “session”, which really comes from the English tradition of a bunch of fellows going out after work and each buying a round of beer for a “drinking session”. It is common for English beer to be below 4% ABV, making it possible to have four or five pints without getting oneself into trouble later in the evening. Applying this logic to IPA, which typically starts around 6% ABV but often weighs in at more like 7 or 8% ABV, one imagines a beer that has assertive bitterness but is much more about the hop flavour and aroma. Scaling a regular IPA recipe down in terms of the simple quantity of the malts would result in a very dry, perhaps even watery session beer, so work has to be done to add body/mouthfeel to the beer. Further, the bitterness added by the hops in a 7% beer would be incredibly unpleasant in a 4.5% one, so those also need adjusting. You get the idea.
Session IPAs are known by a lot of names, but all names are debatable and it would be a separate blog post to try to go over them, so let’s just stick with Session IPA here. Ours has gone through a lot of revisions, and we’ve really enjoyed almost all of them along the way. If you read the section on IPAs above, you probably could put two and two together and see that we might have the same issue with hops in our Session IPA as we do in the IPA, so many revisions are likely to continue to occur in the future as we play with different hops. We are also still experimenting with different methods for improving the body and head retention in the beer (e.g. flaked oats, flaked barley, mash temps, special malts, etc.). Over time we will likely use this recipe for showcasing new and unusual hop varieties, as well.
A Hefeweizen, or German Weissbier, is a wheat-based beer dominated by aromas and flavours of banana and clove, which are byproducts of the unique yeast used to ferment the beer. Our version started as Tyler’s first home-brew recipe. Living in California at the time, Ty wanted to put something in the beer that made him think of Canada, and blueberries were his top choice. After the first batch we realized that the blueberries give the beer a deep purple colour, but not much flavour compared to the yeast-derived esters and phenols (blueberries don’t actually impart much flavour to beer, extracts or artificial flavours are often used). Though it could be seen as a bit of a gimmick, a lot of people liked the purple colour and the beer has always tasted good, so it has stuck around in our rotation. We are still playing with the recipe to make it finish a little dryer, add more notes of bread, etc., as well as experimenting with non-purple versions and additions of fruit at different times in the process (boil vs. secondary fermentation), and purees vs. flash-frozen fruits. Our next iteration of the beer is going to be fruitless, literally, because we want to be able to evaluate the base beer on its own, and try adding various flavours in the glass rather than in an entire batch of beer.
An English Brown style can vary greatly from something like a thin, light Newcastle Brown all the way to something coming closer to a porter in intensity and colour. Our version was designed to be an easy-drinking 5% ABV, with plenty of malt backbone and flavours of biscuit and chocolate, as well as some caramel and sweeter impressions, but still finish on the dry side (again, a dryer beer is easier to drink more than one of).
We originally developed the brown recipe to showcase Red Shed malts, and the first batch was a huge crowd pleaser, requiring little to no iteration. However, we have a lot of creative ideas that revolve around brown ale base beers, so we are using the base recipe and making minor tweaks for each variation.
Our most recent experiment was a Gingerbread Brown Ale, designed to replicate the flavours and aromas found in gingerbread, which revolve around molasses, ginger, and mulling spices like clove. We brewed a batch of the beer during the lead-up to Christmas, hoping that the beer would be ready for the festivities. Unfortunately, the beer came out spicier than hoped, and issues with our temperature control resulted in a stalled fermentation. So, we took the original recipe, made a few tweaks based on tastings of the first beer, and brewed it again, this time without adding the spices. After fermentation had been underway in the new beer for a couple of days, we used a deeply-cleaned and sanitized pump and hoses to thoroughly blend the two batches together, allowing the active yeast from the new beer to get access to the sugars in the original one, and cutting the spice levels in half. Sure enough, after another week and a half in the tanks, the beer was palatable and we kegged it off just in time for New Years celebrations. As I write this post, I’m sipping on this beer, which has mellowed out in the past couple weeks but still has plenty of aroma resembling an eggnog. The base beer finishes thicker and sweeter than the original because we brought the hop bitterness down a bit and mashed for more body. Molasses is less noticeable in the aroma now than it was at first. Definitely the beer is quite enjoyable and we would consider putting this on as a seasonal, but it will require a few more iterations before the next holiday season demands it.
Expect to see more variations on our brown ale in the future.
We feel like a fresh, bready beer with notes of cracker and grainy character is great for reminding customers that beer is an agricultural product, starting a dialogue about where the wheat and barley used in our beers primarily comes from — Alberta! We use flavourful late-addition hops, as well as dry hop to add tropical flavour and aroma; bitterness is kept fairly low — this is not a wheat pale ale.
Our last batch of this wheat beer went on tap back in August and received a lot of great initial feedback from friends and family; we just brewed it again a few days ago and are eagerly awaiting it to finish fermenting so that we can receive additional feedback and continue to iterate on the recipe.
Everybody makes a raspberry beer, so why do we need to make one? We like some of those other raspberry beers, but we feel like something is missing. Some raspberry beers taste too sweet, others don’t taste like real, fresh raspberries ever found their way into the beer. When one tastes a fresh raspberry fruit, they are greeted with a sweet, acidic aroma that is unmistakable for raspberries, and that is the first thing we focus on with our beer. Second, when you bite into a raspberry, you experience a thrilling sweet sensation that quickly fades into the tart finish of the berry. Our beer finishes drier to let the berry tartness shine through in a similar way. We used an American Wheat base beer recipe, as the style naturally lends itself to fruit additions with low hopping rates and background bready malt flavours, as well as a lack of yeast-derived flavours that can interfere with the berries.
We’ve been working on this recipe for quite a while now and have made minor changes to the malt and hops, but our focus has been on the yeast and raspberries. We’ve used several American and English yeast strains, and are now using our house strain, which is an English variety (English yeast in an American Wheat, go figure). On the raspberry side, we’ve tried flash-frozen organic and non-organic raspberries, as well as Vintner’s Harvest purees in various quantities. Puree resulted in the best results because it has been strained for seeds (anyone that has chewed on seeds knows that they can be quite tart and astringent). Finally, the puree was easier to handle as a liquid than solid berries were, and the process of creating a puree pasteurizes it, so the risk of infecting our beer with wild bacteria or yeast from the fruit is significantly diminished.
Kölsch is an appellation for a low-alcohol (~4% ABV) ale brewed in Cologne, Germany, so we aren’t allowed to say that we brew a Kölsch. In many ways, this style resembles a pale, European lager, because Kölsch yeast ferment cooly and don’t produce as much fruity, estery flavours at these temperatures, much like lager yeast, and because European hops are typically used in the beer. Further, the beer is usually lagered (stored cold) for longer than your typical ale before it is served, allowing further clarification and smoothing out of flavours. However, Kölsch is an ale and as such, has a much shorter turnaround time than a typical lager. Kölsch beer is delightfully balanced in every way. Malt is prominent but not over the top, hops are there but only enough to balance out the malt, yeast is subtle, and the beer finishes medium dry with a refreshing level of carbonation. Alcohol is mild and not really noticeable. You could drink these all day.
We first brewed a light, 3% ABV Kölsch recipe as a base beer for off-flavour additions for our tasting events. Because the style is so light and balanced, it offers an excellent platform for tastings (at a recent CAMRA off-flavour tasting event, Last Best also used their Kölsch in the same way). However, we brewed an extra quantity of the beer and kept it on tap at home, and it became a favourite, so we will be hacking on this recipe a little more and bringing the intensity up to the typical range for the style. Note that the beer looks a lot darker in the picture above than it was in reality, the dark countertops and Instagram photo filter made it much more intense looking.
I hope that gives you a sense of what we’ve been working on. We appreciate you staying with us until now and all your support. We’re going to need all the support we can get in the coming months and are super happy to have people like you. We have a lot of other ideas on new beer in the pipeline, but please, if you think we should brew something, let us know at beer@prairiedogbrewing.ca or contact us on social media (see the links at the top or bottom right). | 2019-04-20T20:32:38 | https://www.prairiedogbrewing.ca/category/articles/status-updates/page/3/ |
If you're well worth the trouble?
Or will you burst my bubble?
I needn't leave my room to take its balm.
The skies of San Diego soothe and calm.
Who am I? Am I doing well?
What do I want? What are my dreams?
Where am I bound? Do tell.
Without commitment, what is there to do?
So many of our dreams are dissipated.
The whole damn system smells of hokus-pokus.

By 1995, the lasting influence of The International Style was not only well-established, it was repeated in the 1988 Deconstructivist Architecture exhibition by none other than Philip Johnson (with Mark Wigley). Each exhibition and companion publication aimed to define a style that captured the zeitgeist by focusing on form and appearance. Johnson and Hitchcock defined three traits of what they called the "international style" but what is commonly known just as "modern architecture": Architecture as Volume, rather than architecture as mass, arising from steel framing; Concerning Regularity, on the articulation of windows in exterior walls free from the role of structural support; and The Avoidance of Applied Decoration, a self-explanatory phrase. These are important aspects of what Gropius and other European architects were doing in the 1920s and 30s, but there was more to their buildings than just structure and surface. No matter, as MoMA's traits would come to define modern architecture and supplant any deeper concerns for the social repercussions that arose from the conflicts, technological changes, and economic shifts that dramatically changed the world a century ago.
Henry-Russell Hitchcock (1903–1987), architectural historian, was Sophia Smith Professor of Art at Smith College and author of many works on architects and architecture. Philip Johnson (1906-2005) was a Trustee of the Museum of Modern Art, and a fellow of both The American Institute of Architects and The American Institute of Arts and Letters. In 1978 he received the Gold Medal from the AIA, and in 1979 the first Pritzker Architecture Prize. | 2019-04-21T04:14:40 | https://archidose.blogspot.com/2019/03/the-international-style.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+blogspot/eTHYkZ+(A+Daily+Dose+of+Architecture) |

Free Libre Open Source Lebanese Movement: Do You Need an Executive Coach?
Just as high-performing athletes have personal performance coaches, senior IT leaders can hire an executive coach to raise their leadership skills to the next level. These executive coaches - unlike a mentor or boss - can help you assess your strengths and weaknesses, provide feedback and help you tweak your performance. Typically, IT professionals haven't engaged such services at the same pace as other senior managers, say coaches, CIOs and other corporate leaders. But that is changing as tech executives and their companies see that IT can gain as much from coaching as the CEO or other senior leaders. In fact, IT professionals may even benefit more, particularly those who rise through the ranks on the strength of their technical expertise rather than their management experience.
Like their counterparts in other professions, IT leaders hire executive coaches under a variety of circumstances. Some receive coaches as part of executive compensation packages that come standard to all leaders at certain levels of the company. Others are assigned coaches individually -- either as rising stars who are being groomed for promotion or as struggling managers who need help in specific areas of performance. Finally, some people decide on their own to work with a coach as a way of investing in their career. Though companies most often pay for the service, some professionals do pay out of their own pockets for various reasons. They may work for companies with financial difficulties where such expenses are just not possible. Others may want their coaching arrangement to remain private or may be at a less senior level where the company has decided not to cover the cost. | 2019-04-24T12:47:57 | http://oslm.cofares.net/2012/08/do-you-need-executive-coach.html |
Okay, see Look 1? Now check Look 28. See Look 2? Then jump to 29 . . . . Yep, Looks 1 to 7 feature the same dresses as Looks 28 to 35. And by same dress, read: same dress. Not two dresses in two different colorways—the same exact dress (or shirt ’n’ skirt). So . . . what’s up? What is this crazy alchemy? The answer, said designer Kunihiko Morinaga backstage, is in the fabric: a photochromic material that darkens when exposed to UV light.
That first seven-look suite appears muddy purple in the pictures but was black in real life. The reason was Morinaga’s assistants shining UV-light-emitting torches onto the clothes, which transformed them from from transparent to black. Even as those pieces walked their first walk, unexposed to UV, the color was fading. And by the time they came out again for their second round (devilishly confusingly now worn with different shoes) the color had faded completely.
During the show it was difficult to take this all in. Most of my bench hadn’t had the privilege of a preshow chat, and were enraptured like the rest of the room by the face chandeliers.
In between the two coups de théâtre repetitions we saw some lovely looks that melded crisply treated workwear and militarywear at the top via fabric-strafed intersections, with bottom halves made of technical semiopaque checked nylon. See Looks 17 and 18? About 30 seconds before they were photographed, when the wearers were standing at the back of the room against the white screen, elements of both looks were a sky blue color because they had been freshly UVed. | 2019-04-25T20:32:41 | https://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/spring-2019-ready-to-wear/anrealage |
India Exclusion Report is a widely collaborative effort involving institutions and individuals working with disadvantaged and marginalised communities in India. The report seeks to inform public opinion around exclusion and to influence policy making towards more inclusive and equitable governance. It is also meant to serve as a tool to support public action for the grater inclusion of marginalised communities in the country.
India Exclusion Report 2015 presents an in-depth review of exclusion with respect to three essential public goods - urban health, urban water and sanitation, and just conditions of work for women. It also discusses exclusion in budgetary and planning processes with particular reference to taxation, and profiles the following highly excluded groups - single women, Devadasis, survivors of communal violence, survivors of ethnic conflict, and the Jarawa of the Andamans. | 2019-04-20T10:39:39 | http://www.yodapress.co.in/india-exclusion-report-2015/ |

If you’re like me, more of life is in the past than the future. Fortunately it takes longer to arrive at that halfway mark than it did 100 years ago when the average life span was around 50. Today, if you retire at 65, you could have 20 to 30 years ahead of you. The way you approach aging does not have to be a long slow decline, even if your body says otherwise.
Bob Buford’s book Halftime explores the possibilities of a longer life. He inherited a business, which he eventually sold for enough to fund his retirement. But he didn’t know what to do next. He sought the advice of business guru Peter Drucker who surmised, “You’re in halftime, Bob.” You spend the first half of your life trying to survive and succeed. With today’s U.S. average life expectancy of 79 years, you can spend your latter years moving from success to significance. “Halftime” is when you decide the most rewarding way to do that.
Eugene Peterson’s book A Long Obedience in the Same Direction is about persistence in learning to walk with, and toward God. Lamenting that our society has become so enamored with instant gratification, he reflects on Psalms once sung by pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem. He sees the Christian life as such a journey. Worship, service, and community add significance to life even as we sense our destination drawing nigh. Longevity is your opportunity to model a persistent, growing faith.
The poet Wadsworth penned verses he called “A Psalm of Life.” His life was marked with suffering and tragedy, but that only clarified to him what really matters. Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest, was not spoken of the soul. His exhortation becomes more poignant as we age. Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another, sailing o’er life’s solemn main, a forlorn and shipwrecked brother, seeing, shall take heart again.
How can you be significant, live a long obedience in the same direction, and make your life sublime? Jesus simplified and summarized God’s desire for you. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind,” and “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Matt. 22:35-40). However you answer the question, let it include faith, humility, service, and joy.
Here is another encouragement as you contemplate the frailties of aging. God says, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Your response? “I will boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me” (2 Cor. 12:9). May God be with you in this season of your life. | 2019-04-22T12:07:32 | http://mountainchristian.net/2019/04/ |

Students who enroll in a study abroad program that has been approved for credit by WWU can be considered for financial aid in most cases.
Participation in a Education Abroad program offers students a valuable academic and cross-cultural experience. A successful experience requires careful and thorough planning.
Start the planning process by contacting the WWU Center for International Studies, Education Abroad.
Submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for federal and state financial aid (if you are a resident).
Review the Financial Aid Checklist to ensure you have completed important steps necessary for general financial aid eligibility.
Visit the Financial Aid Services Center after working with Education Abroad to discuss your eligibility or if you have additional questions.
Often, programs will allow payments to be deferred if you are using financial aid to fund your program. Contact our office to assist you with completing required paperwork.
As a regular Western student enrolled in an approved education abroad program, your financial aid offer will be reviewed for eligibility. Your cost of attendance will be increased or decreased depending on the approved study abroad cost of attendance. Your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) will not change; therefore, if the approved program costs are greater than the standard cost of attendance, your financial need increases. Similarly, if the approved program costs are lower than the standard cost of attendance, your financial need will be reduced. Your actual financial aid offer will depend on your aid eligibility and availability of funds. Many of the aid types available to you as a regular Western student are also eligible to fund your approved study abroad program.
If you plan on studying abroad during summer term, you may use the Summer Education Abroad Financial Aid Estimator to calculate your potential eligibility. Additional important information is also available regarding summer financial aid.
Best wishes for a wonderful study abroad experience! | 2019-04-21T00:26:04 | http://finaid.wwu.edu/client_services/pages/receive/educationabroad.php |
SCRA received a £9.6m investment from the Higher Education Council for England (HEFCE) Strategic Development Fund to fund a group of high-calibre Research Fellows around its programme themes of advanced materials, energy futures and translational medicine.
There were 22 Fellows in the first intake, making use of shared research infrastructure and facilities at both the University of Birmingham and the University of Warwick. Fellows had the unique opportunity to work for two institutions at once. Each Fellow had a home institution and an honorary appointment at the other, frequently in different departments or even faculties, to assist inter-disciplinary projects.
Individually, the Fellows had already established themselves as excellent researchers. They had been prolific in publishing high-quality research publications and had also won funding from research councils. Several Fellows had been invited to present lectures to key research audiences or through conference committees, showing a growing recognition of their work.
The best SCRA Fellow research frequently reached beyond its pre-defined boundaries. Even at an early stage, Fellows' activities were impacting areas beyond their own academic disciplines. Several Fellows created research partnerships with high-technology businesses. Through these, the two universities filed new patents to exploit the commercial opportunities of the research. Many Fellows became STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) ambassadors, working with young people to encourage their interest in science.
Perhaps most importantly, collaborations were formed between those Fellows working together to develop new research proposals and sharing techniques and ideas between disciplines, showing the benefit of strategically injecting posts for early-career researchers to scholarship, innovation and the generation of new intellectual capital.
The HEFCE funding provided a unique opportunity for both universities to attract early-career researchers and to support them in developing not only their research, but relationships between academia and business, and across academic institutional boundaries.

Augustine says you should never write your resume in third person because everyone knows you're the one writing it (unless you go through a professional resume writing service).
Your aim is to produce a professional resume profile that makes lively, engaging reading about you - something that will make a real impact on whoever reads your profile.
One of the most debated topics surrounding resume writing is whether or not an individual’s resume should contain an objective or professional profile. Regardless of whether or not you are a Professional Resume Writer, there are some rules in particular that you should follow. You should always have a professional profile, rather than an objective within the resume. Employers will immediately notice that your resume is outdated should it contain an objective.
We would advocate contacting a Certified Professional Resume Writer for any questions regarding the implementation of a professional profile into your resume. Being the most important part of the resume, it is crucial that it speak volumes as to your professionalism, career path, and core competencies.

In London I would often indulge in a BLT sandwich at my local caff – two toasted sandwich bread slices stuffed with bacon, lettuce and tomato and smothered in mayonnaise. These days I make this sandwich even better, by adding avocado and HP sauce to it. The perfect hangover cure on a lazy Sunday!
Fry the bacon in a dry frying without adding any grease. Once the bacon is crispy, drain on kitchen paper.
Fry the two sandwich bread slices in the fat that oozed out of the bacon.
Lay the two sandwich slices out in front of you and spread mayonnaise on one of them. Top with iceberg salad, tomatoes, avocado and the bacon. Season with pepper.
Spread some HP sauce over the second bread slice and put on top of the bacon to make a sandwich. Enjoy! | 2019-04-20T08:25:48 | http://anneskitchen.lu/recipes/breakfast/annes-blt/ |

Another hugely successful crash course during the October half term. Children attended every afternoon for two hours, split between intensive teaching and supervised play. Results were remarkable: Sienna Weller and Skye Ashworth joined as “beginners” yet both achieved 200m. Five others from Philomena’s first level swam a length of the pool (25m). Star swimmer Oliver Hooper set off aiming to improve on his previous best of 25m and 90 minutes later was the proud owner of the 1 mile award. Isaac Siu also completed the gruelling 64 length challenge. Harrison Page and Lucas Worthington swam 2,000m (80 lengths), Jayden Douglas got his 1500m, Rosie Mei Dolman and Aaron Banjo swam 40 lengths for their One kilometre award. 400m badges went to Orla Page and Isaac Foley. Star teachers Hugo, Sam and Philomena were ably supported by Jodie, Jacob and David.
Next Crash Course is February half term 2019. | 2019-04-21T14:37:39 | https://www.shirleyswimmingpool.co.uk/crash-course-october-2018 |
But it’s not the only thing Cornish that’s going on this weekend in London, oh no!
Kernow in the City is London’s annual celebration of Cornish contemporary culture and entertainment featuring live music, poetry, Cornish ale and food. Now in it’s eighth year, this popular event will bring together the capital’s Cornish and Celtic communities, and curious Londoners alike to champion the best of Cornwall, fuelled by Skinner’s ale and Warrens pasties lovingly baked in the Duchy.
We will naturally be there to soak up the Cornish spirit, talk to people about the club, and I’m sure we’ll partake in a beverage or two.
We’ll be holding an open day for the club at the London Regatta Centre, Royal Albert Docks, the following Saturday (11th March). It would be great to have as many of you folks there (Cornish or not!).
