Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts/ruptures. When either of these things happens, brain cells begin to die and brain damage occurs.
Fast, effective treatment is key to recovery from a stroke. Experts sometimes say “time is brain” as quick treatment can save brain cells and reduce residual damage from the stroke. It is vital that you know the signs of a stroke and seek immediate treatment when those signs are present.
After acute care treatment, the patient faces the recovery and healing process. Rehabilitation should begin as soon as possible during this healing process. One third of stroke patients need help with activities of daily living after a stroke, and one quarter cannot ambulate without assistance. The most common effects of stroke are: speech impediment, decreased motor skill coordination, and depression. The nature and extent of disability after a stroke varies widely depending on the type of stroke and area of the brain that was impacted, as well as the course of rehabilitation.
Due to the nature of our brains, rehabilitation can be very effective in gaining back abilities, compensating and gaining new skills to be more independent–and the process can continue over a long period of time. The rehabilitation process will depend on many factors such as the nature of the stroke and resulting damage, the person’s overall health history and other diagnoses/disabilities, living situation/caregiver availability and more. Any good rehabilitation process is a coordinated team effort, involving the patient, family and various medical and rehabilitation providers.
The average length of stay for patients with an acute ischemic stroke is between 6-10 days in the acute care setting, so rehabilitation options must be evaluated quickly. Rehabilitation for stroke and other acute medical issues can occur in different settings. An acute care rehabilitation setting (inpatient in the hospital or a special hospital unit) may be advised for intensive therapy and acute/complex medical needs. This type of care is often appropriate for a stroke patient and may help extend the benefits of rehabilitation services (hospital/acute care falls in to one “bucket” under Medicare coverage, and rehabilitation/skilled nursing falls in to another “bucket” of coverage days). Rehabilitation facilities offer different types of programs and levels of intensity. Some of these may be stand-alone short term rehabilitation centers, while others may be part of a hospital campus or long-term skilled nursing facility (i.e. many nursing facilities have long term and short term sections or mixtures of patients).
Discharge planning and the appropriate rehabilitation setting depend largely on the various factors that make up the patient’s situation. As an advocate for a stroke patient, it is vital you help communicate expectations and hopes for recovery and ask questions to ascertain the proper level of care, options and expectations for possible recovery and ongoing needs. With any medical crisis, but particularly in cases like stroke where the rehabilitation process can have long-term impacts on quality of life, consider involving an expert geriatric care manager as a professional patient advocate and care coordinator.
The National Stroke Association offers a fact sheet with an overview on choosing a stroke rehabilitation program, which you may want to review and save as you go through the discharge planning process.
We have created a “Discharge planning checklist for transition to rehabilitation” to help you with the key steps and questions when transitioning to an inpatient rehabilitation program after being hospitalized for a stroke, broken hip or any other acute care need requiring rehabilitation. This discharge planning checklist is a handy tool as you evaluate options and advocate for a good transition to help the patient have the most successful outcomes possible.
As the patient progresses through the rehabilitation process, the next steps will involve discharge planning for the longer term, whether the patient returns home living independently, with some support services, with a caregiver or home caregiver services, or moves to assisted living or a skilled nursing facility. An ongoing prevention plan is essential to reduce the risks of recurrent stroke. Patients should work closely with their medical team to understand modifiable risk factors and work to reduce them, as well as follow their personalized treatment plan (medications, diet, wellness/screenings and monitoring).
Set up services according to your goals, wishes and needs. | 2019-04-22T04:48:02 | https://www.agingwisely.com/discharge-planning-checklist-stroke-care-and-rehabilitation/ |
The province has found mercury in soil and possibly buried metal in an area upstream from Grassy Narrows First Nation and Wabaseemoong (Whitedog) Independent Nations that was identified by a former paper mill worker as a dumping ground for mercury-filled barrels.
The Environment Ministry’s findings confirm results found by the Toronto Star one year ago.
The mercury-tainted soil and the metallic underground “anomalies” were found in a clearing identified by Kas Glowacki as the area in Dryden, Ont., where he and a small crew dumped 50 drums of salt and mercury in 1972.
The province says it will dig up the clearing for more answers.
“We are continuing our site assessment and will be excavating areas where there are larger anomalies this coming spring,” said an Environment Ministry spokesperson, Gary Wheeler, in an email to the Star.
Between 1962 and 1970, 10 tonnes of mercury from the Dryden paper mill, then owned by Reed Paper, were dumped into the Wabigoon River, which flows to the two Indigenous communities in northern Ontario.
Mercury contamination, a serious health risk, has plagued the people there for decades. Dangerous and persistently high levels of mercury found in the river sediment and fish in the river system suggest there is an ongoing source.
Until recently, provincial officials had said the site was not an ongoing source of mercury to the river system. Scientist John Rudd has said that, historically, paper mills have been known to be sources of contamination long after they stopped using mercury in the paper-bleaching process.
Mercury has not been used in paper production at the site in decades, and there is no suggestion that Domtar, several owners removed from Reed Paper, is responsible for any ongoing source of mercury.
Last January, the Star and the environmental group Earthroots dug several holes in the area identified by Glowacki and had the soil tested at a lab. The holes were dug behind the riverside factory. The soil showed mercury readings up to 80 times natural levels.
In September, a provincial crew dug its own holes and in one (which the province labelled TS1 for the “Toronto Star,” as the Star had previously dug there) found mercury levels that were 240 times higher than expected natural levels in soils that were even deeper than those taken by the Star, according to a provincial report on the search that the Star has obtained.
Western University Prof. Brian Branfireun said the province’s results confirm and strengthen the Star’s findings last year.
“The deeper the soil samples, the higher the concentration,” said Branfireun, who holds the Canada Research Chair in environment and sustainability.
The province did not explain why it took one year to confirm the Star’s results.
The underground metal “anomalies” were detected in October by a government worker who scanned the area with a hand-held electromagnetic surveying device.
The Star first published Glowacki’s allegations in the summer of 2016, when he recounted that, as a 21-year-old casual labourer, he spent a week on a crew that shovelled out a vat and filled about 50 drums. At the top of the vat, veins of mercury streaked the salt, Glowacki said, adding that as he and a co-worker shovelled toward the bottom, the mercury concentrations seemed to increase.
Glowacki remembered that some drums were carelessly pushed off a flatbed truck and toppled into a pit that was lined with polyurethane sheets.
In late 2016, Ontario’s environment minister announced the province had searched for the barrels and concluded they did not exist. The government had searched an area, near that sampled by Earthroots and the Star. Before that search, an Earthroots representative asked the province to search in a larger area, which did not happen.
There are other locations on the mill property that scientists believe could be an ongoing source of mercury to the river, including the site of the old chlor-alkali plant, where mercury was used to bleach paper.
In November, the Star reported that the provincial government knew in the 1990s that mercury was visible in soil under that site and never told anyone from Grassy Narrows or Whitedog.
The Star also reported that groundwater samples taken from wells on the mill property over the years have shown extremely high mercury levels. The province’s environment ministry said it was unaware of this data until the summer of 2016, when it received a report based on historical data commissioned by current owner Domtar. | 2019-04-22T01:03:16 | https://www.thestar.com/amp/news/investigations/2018/02/05/province-finds-mercury-contaminated-soil-and-possibly-buried-metal-on-dryden-site-upstream-from-grassy-narrows.html |
The 2018 RAM 1500 has won best-in-class aerodynamics and most fuel-efficient full-size pickup. As the top of its class for on road and off road, the highest rating for snow plowing, best-in-class gas tow rating, and the highest 5th wheel towing capacity of 30,000 pounds, there’s no question how for the last 30 years the RAM has been the most common pickup still on the road. This year the RAM 1500 is making a rearview camera standard for all models and adding an updated infotainment system with an 8.4-inch screen. Limited Tungsten edition and midtier Harvest edition are available this year as well.
How do I know which trim to choose?
No matter what you are looking to use your truck for, 2018 RAM 1500 has you covered with over eleven different trim levels and five different cab and bed configurations. These trim levels start with the basic trim, Tradesman, and continue up to the Limited. All cab and bed configurations are available in two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The configurations available are regular cab seats three with 8-ft. bed or 6-ft. 4-in. bed, a quad cab seats six with a 6-ft. 4-in. bed, or a crew cab for extra legroom with a 5-ft. 7-in. bed or a 6-ft. 4-in. bed. For a hardy work truck, the Tradesman trim is perfect with its Class IV hitch receiver and spray-in bed liner. If you’re looking for a luxury truck check out the Laramie model and its auto-dimming mirrors, heated and ventilated leather front seats with driver-seat memory settings, wood trim, and 10-speaker audio system. Although, if you’re looking for a nice mix of work and luxury try the Laramie Longhorn as it adds keyless entry and ignition, front and rear parking sensors, remote start, and a navigation system. If you just want a truck to go off-roading in, the Rebel is your model with its 17-inch all-terrain tires, Bilstein shock absorbers, and tow hooks. Additional storage features are also available on all models, with hidden bins and a flat-load floor.
Which engines are available in the 2018 RAM 1500?
A 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine comes standard with all models, but the Rebel, Laramie Longhorn, and the Limited. The V6 engine has 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. The Rebel, Laramie Longhorn, and the Limited come standard with a 5.7-liter V8 HEMI with variable-valve timing and can reach 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. 2018 RAM 1500 also has its exclusive 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 engine with 27 mpg, 240 horsepower, and 420 lb-ft of torque. All engines can have either 2WD or 4WD with a standard 8-speed automatic transmission, except on the HEMI V8 which comes with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The 8-speed automatic is optional for the HEMI V8 engine.
What are some of the safety feature options?
Blind-spot visibility is promoted through the use of the 2018 RAM 1500’s longer rear window and the standard backup camera. Safety features that come included may depend on the trim, but could range from additions of automatic high beams, a locking tailgate, LED foglights, or automatic windshield wipers.
Are you looking to find the perfect truck for you? Come check out a few of our 2018 RAM 1500 trims! | 2019-04-19T08:33:37 | https://www.texandodgechryslerjeepram.com/2018-ram-1500-houston-tx/ |

I have a 1983 Trek 500 with I believe 27in wheels. The tires on them are Kenda and say 27 1 1/4. I have a set of 27 1 1/4 Gatorskins lying around so I thought I would swap out the Kenda tires. When putting the Gatorskins on, they are too big for the wheel! Both tires say 27 1 1/4, how could one fit and one not fit?
Is there a chance that the wheel is actually 700c? The wheel is quite thin and uses a presta valve.
According to the Trek brochure below, that bike has 27" rims and came with 27" x 1" tires. Therefore 27" x 1 1/4" should also fit.
How are they too big?
Do the rims have a hook around them for using with beaded tires? On some older rims where the inside of the rim is flat, newer beaded tires won't stay on the rim if you attempt to inflate them any where near the max pressure on the sidewall.
Wow, embarrassing. I tried again and it went on no problem. I think when I did it the first time, I had a 26in wheel lying around and mistakened it or something. No idea. Sorry!

Revealed after the Hijrah. This chapter has 11 verses.
6. Say: "O ye of Jewry! If ye think that ye are friends to Allah, to the exclusion of (other) men, then express your desire for Death, if ye are truthful!"
8. Say: "The Death from which ye flee will truly overtake you: then will ye be sent back to the Knower of things secret and open: and He will tell you the things that ye did!"
11. But when they see some bargain or some pastime, they disperse headlong to it, and leave thee standing. Say: "That which Allah has is better than any pastime or bargain! and Allah is the Best to provide (for all needs)." | 2019-04-25T12:48:38 | http://quran-english.weebly.com/62-the-assembly-friday-prayer-al-jumuaacute.html |

As OSHA defense attorneys, we cannot stress enough that contractors need to always prioritize safety measures at their jobsite. If a hazard is present, work needs to be discontinued until the area of concern is closely evaluated and corrected. Even if your workplace is entirely hazard-free, there’s always a chance that an employee will file a false complaint. If one of your employees reports an alleged safety issue with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), it’s critical that you consult with an OSHA attorney.
In this two-part article, an OSHA defense attorney with Cotney Construction Law will discuss OSHA’s process of conducting phone/fax investigations after a complaint is submitted. In this section, we will discuss the brief history of this new investigation procedure. We will then go into more detail about OSHA’s process when investigating a claim via phone/fax. Remember, even if your workplace is in compliance with the standards governed by OSHA, you should consult with an experienced attorney before responding to a claim.
OSHA launched its online complaint form in December of 2013. Naturally, the number of electronic complaints by whistleblowers has increased annually since the creation of this online form. Typically, when a complaint is filed electronically through the government agency’s website, OSHA addresses the issue with a phone/fax investigation. As OSHA states on their own website, the “phone/fax method enables the agency to respond more quickly to hazards.” If any complaints meet one of the safety agency’s eight criteria, they will conduct an onsite investigation. However, if the claim fails to meet any of these standards, the agency will perform an investigation by phone/fax. Further, any employee or employee representative can request that OSHA perform this type of investigation.
As a contractor, you may not be aware of the rules and regulations related to this investigation procedure. Fortunately, if a complaint is filed involving your jobsite, an OSHA attorney can navigate you through OSHA’s investigation process. To learn more about OSHA’s phone/fax investigation procedure, please read the second part of our series.
If you would like to speak with one of our OSHA defense attorneys, please contact us today. | 2019-04-21T13:08:14 | https://trentcotney.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-oshas-phone-fax-investigations-part-1/ |

This patient presents with a history of chronic (>2 months) intermittent vomiting.
There is a soft tissue density mass present in the caudodorsal abdomen which appears to be displacing the descending colon ventrally. The kidneys are both small as well. The remainder of the abdomen appears radiographically normal. It is important not to over interpret the upper GI tract in this study. There is ingesta present in the stomach, which precludes any meaningful assessment of gastric wall thickness. Similarly the small bowel wall appears thickened in some areas, but this is a dangerous trap to fall into, because even a small amount of intraluminal fluid can cause apparent wall thickening on plain radiographs. If you are concerned about thickening of the stomach or small bowel wall and you don't have ultrasound available then you need to do a contrast study.
The take home point in this case is that you always need to read the radiographs, and not just the history. The cat presents for vomiting, but the underlying problem is a colonic mass. Ultrasound of the abdomen confirmed that the mass was originating from the wall of the descending colon, and ultrasound-guided aspirates confirmed colonic lymphosarcoma. The remainder of the GI tract was sonographically normal. | 2019-04-21T20:15:36 | https://www.petrad.com/blog/2014/1/9/a-chronically-vomiting-cat |

Take a look at the Capricorn and Pisces compatibility love match in astrology.
Do Capricorn and Pisces make a good love match?
In astrology as a Cardinal sign, Capricorn is said to indicate action, initiation and assertiveness. Capricorn likes to initiate and control their lives and their surroundings. They like to take the lead, are ambitious, creative and spontaneous. Add to this a practical nature, dependability and a grounded approach to life which comes from the Element of Earth and you have a forceful, dedicated and determinate personality.
In astrology as a Mutable sign, Pisces is said to indicate flexibility, adaptability and have good communication. Pisces have the ability to reinvent themselves, are able to accept change and are very resourceful. Add to this a nurturing and protective character, a developed intuition, intense sensitivity and understanding which comes from the Element of Water and you have intense, fervent and adaptable personality.
Capricorn is an Earth sign. In astrology Earth signs are often focused, driven and ambitious. Reaching goals, gaining respect and achieving are all very important to people from the Earth sign. Material wealth and possessions are also important to them, so they are often hard workers so they can earn enough money to live comfortably. But they are not entirely materialistic as they prefer natural environments to city life.
Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn and relates to tradition, authority and control. Those born under the rulership of Saturn tend to be serious and crave influence and authority.
Pisces is from the Element of Water. In astrology Water signs are known for their sensitivity and deeply felt emotions. They are generally very perceptive and use their strong intuition to guide them. They tend to have vivid imaginations and intense feelings. Although they like their alone time, they need the company of others to really thrive.
Pisces is ruled by the planet Neptune and relates to imagination, fantasy and freedom. Those born under the influence of Neptune tend to want to escape from reality and are dreamers. Pisces also has strong connections to the planet Jupiter as its classical ruler. Jupiter’s influence adds optimism and openness to opportunity.
In astrology when a Cardinal sign comes together with a Mutable sign as with Capricorn and Pisces the likely tensions are usually concerned with commitment issues. Cardinal signs insist on some form of commitment, even at the initial stages of a relationship whereas Mutable signs don’t like to be pinned down and value their independence.
When an Earth sign comes together with a Water sign as with Capricorn and Pisces they can become a great partnership. Capricorn and Pisces can nurture and guide each other through life. Pisces nourishes and softens Capricorn and Capricorn guides and supports the direction Pisces takes. With a bit of perseverance, Pisces can influence Capricorn in directions Capricorn does not want to go, and this could mean a direction that is hard to get back from. However, such issues will be softened by mutual consideration and love.
Combining Capricorn with Pisces in a love match can sometimes be challenging. Both suffer with self esteem and insecurity issues but if they can support each other it can become a winning team.
When Capricorn and Pisces partner together their different approaches to life can be balanced out by each other. With Capricorn being a realist and Pisces being a dreamer they can meet somewhere in between. | 2019-04-25T18:40:56 | https://www.alizons-psychic-secrets.com/capricorn-and-pisces.html |
LET it be said, lest anyone need a reminder, that Zac Posen likes to have fun. The one thing that's been missing since New York fashion's big move to uptown has been the sense of showmanship, one-upmanship, glamour, fantasy and joy that one so frequently associates with the enigmatic world of fashion design. Tonight, Zac reminded us of that, and that he was once America's very own l'enfant terrible.
Starting with the high-octane crowd jostling the frazzled guardians of the gilded doors to the madhouse front row scene (name check time: Olivier Zahm, Michelle Trachtenberg, Leigh Lezark, Kimora Lee Simmons, Lauren Conrad, J. Alexander, and - the pièce de résistance - Claire Danes), that caused a frenzy of flashes, Posen's pre-show resembled a cinematic cliché of what Hollywood thinks a fashion show is. It was surprising, too, since this was the sophomore season for his more consumer-friendly, sportswear-focused sister line Z Spoke - not his eponymous label. With Z Spoke and his recent collaboration with K-mart, it seems that Posen, known for his princess ball gowns and red carpet-ready frocks has found a more magnanimous vein.
But on to the clothes! As the thumping music began (provided by none other than The Misshapes), Posen let his inhibitions, if he had any left, go and sent down a procession of the industry's finest 'It' girls bathed in clothing that ranged from outlandish and flirty to downright excessive. We even had a chuckle when one model, grinning mischievously, did a twirl and took a major tumble mid-catwalk, to the dismay and delight of the audience.
Whether it be a pale yellow dress (worn by Crystal Renn), with peplums and frills or a sable and lemon hued criss-cross top with cut-aways and a keyhole front, Posen was exercising his right to be dramatic. Nothing here was subtle, and it may not be for everyone, but Posen banks on the fact that there are enough designers out there working on quotidian closet-fillers. Pants had exaggerated proportions, jackets had nipped waists and theatrical shoulders, shirts came in loud prints courtesy of Daisy de Villeneuve (a pineapple print was especially fun), and dresses, and we know Posen loves a dress, came in every cut and colour under the sun - with embellishments to spare. After all, the Zac Posen girl, whether she be walking a press line - or a grocery store line - is not one likely to shy away from the limelight and is rarely a wallflower. | 2019-04-22T12:16:44 | https://www.vogue.co.uk/shows/spring-summer-2011-ready-to-wear/z-spoke-by-zac-posen-pre |

My name is Aureo Moniz Cardoso. I am from Suai-Covalima. I am in Melbourne, Australia studying English. I was given this opportunity by the Friends of Suai. I arrived in June and I am staying with a family in Port Phillip, Desleigh and Randall Kent.
I applied for a scholarship from the Mangold Trust Fund in March this year and I received the happy news that I was successful one month later.
I began studying English in Pre-Secondary school in Fohorem when I was 16. At this time I studied for three years. I studied in Secondary school in Suai for a further three years.
I thought learning English would be very helpful. For now I hope this will help our community through the friendship with the people of Port Phillip.
Co-ordinator of the Friends of Suai Pat Jessen, left Melbourne last weekend with the Chairman Bill Armstrong, to prepare for the visit of Port Phillip Mayor Rachel Powning.
They will be there for the Independence Day Festivities and report that Alberto Barros the Co-ordinator of the Community Centre has organised festivities at the community centre on Saturday with a visit to the sub district of Fohoren to see Sr. Helen Nolen for lunch and visit to the schools and health centre.
Pat also reported that the Fountain Gate School has donated library shelves and Suai resident Joni Chung, who is currently living in Melbourne has organised them for shipment with Rotary.
Pat is going to screen the installation videos ‘Unforgettable Selections from a Friendship’ exhibited in the ‘Connections Across the Timor Sea Exhibition’ in 2010 in the St Kilda Town Hall Gallery. Director and Editor of Suai Media Space and the installation, yours truly Jen Hughes will upload the videos on Suai Media Space for you to enjoy.
Mayor Cr Rachel Powning will visit Suai in East Timor next month, following last year’s resolution to renew the City of Port Phillip’s Friendship with East Timor for a further ten years.
The Mayor will meet with President Jose Ramos Horta and the Minister responsible for friendships with Australian local government Mr Arcangelo Leite to discuss how the City of Port Phillip can assist Suai/Covalima in its formation of its first municipal government, following the national elections planned for 2012.
“The experience of the last ten years has shown us we have a clear, strong and robust relationship with Suai and the district,’ said the Mayor.
“Through our Friendship, Council and our community in Port Phillip are in a good position to offer support to this fledgling nation in the area of local government, sharing knowledge about human resource management, town planning and support for the natural environment. There is so much we can do, and we are always looking for more residents in Port Phillip to get involved.
“Our strong focus continues in the area of community development. Suai is the designated location for a wharf, new airport and supply base for oil and gas development in East Timor and the local people are keen to attain new skills for potential employment.
“During my visit I will also meet with the two Friends of Suai volunteer language teachers, Lynn and Dermot Clancy who are in Suai for six months providing support to the 33 English teachers as part of a train the trainer program,” she said.
The City of Port Phillip supports small targeted projects and the Covalima Community Centre through the Friends of Suai, community reference group established in 2000. Last week, Council changed the name to Friends of Suai/Covalima, reflecting the municipal reach of the program.
The Covalima Community Centre provides opportunities for training youth and community members in computer technology and English. The centre also supports over 100 women in small livelihoods economic development.
Friends of Suai/Covalima is seeking new local people to get involved in activities to promote the Friendship for future, If you are interested please contact Pat Jessen on 9209 6777.
In mid August terrible news was reported when there was an incident of civil unrest in a number of outlying villages in the Zumalai sub-district that led to the stabbling murder of a policeman and the burning of around 100 houses. We have information that a number of families have found shelter in the Church in Zumalai town. Calm has been restored but a number of families have been left without homes. The people of Zumalai have asked for help with some emergency funding for food and clothing. A member of the Friend of Zumalai-Kiama Council NSW is organising a fundraiser and we will pass on the information when it is available.
‘Taking Steps’ is a project to support women’s livelihood development. Covalima Community Centre and Friends of Suai run the project with funding from International Women’s Development Agency (IWDA). Six women’s groups have started small scale livelihood activities in Suai Loro, Matai, Ogues, Salele and Lalawa. Some make Tais, others have started new agricultural activities, food processing or other crafts.
The groups Fitun Naroman and Haboras Goronto both weave Tais. Fitun Naroman have started a small shop in Suai Loro (photo). Since the project started their activities have diversified to include rice production. Haboras Goronto have started chicken rearing.
Cruz Minarai group are making some lovely crafts including baskets and woven mobiles. Halibur Aikan Local (Halal) group have asked to learn some of these skills from Cruz Minarai. The project will support this exchange of skills.
Haburas Maudemo make banana chips which are sold locally in Salele and grow vegetables are sold in the Suai market (photo).
The Chefe de Suco of Maudemo is Maria Fatima who is the leader of the Haboras Maudemo group. In the photo at the group vegetable plot she is on the right.
The project staff visit the groups regularly to give support, organize skills training, and help resolve problems that the group might face. Another group in Maudemo are Halibur Maudemo making tempe. Alita, the Project Coordinator is in the background.
The Halal group make banana chips which are sealed in plastic packets to keep fresh for sale. They are also planning to start a fish pond.
Maria Fatima and Filizarda attended a women’s meeting at the Friends of Suai community centre to discuss coordination with and support of the Gender Focal Point, who is the government’s representative, to ensure gender issues are considered in all government programs.
Taking Steps is an exciting new project with potential to reach out to more women. It is about women forming groups, sharing, learning and building confidence and leadership. FOS is commited to ensuring that funding for this project will enable the project to continue to support women of Covalima.
This was a very special event. The Women’s Project of the Covalima Community Centre together with Alberto dos Barros, Co-ordinator of the Friends of Suai in Suai, took some 30 women from Suai to share information and ideas with other women’s groups in Maliana. (It’s rare for people to travel between districts in the poorer rural areas). Maliana is North of Suai (map) and North-West of Bobonaro in the Bobonaro district. The community centre car and the youth centre car, both donated by Friends of Suai and Rotary, were used to take women from Suai. This was an exciting learning and sharing event for the participants.
In Maliana they saw the making of a fuel efficient stove made from local clay, the making of Banana chips, local pesticide production among other things.To visit one of the projects, the road to was a mess but the women decided they wanted to go regardless. They walked 16 kilometres to visit this village.
The slideshow provides a small insight into the process and people involved.
500 books given to the Suai Secondary School have already arrived in Suai for the school library. The library, that was funded by the Friends of Suai and Rotary Club of Balwyn was inaugurated in 2009. Friends of Suai member Desleigh Kent and retired St Kilda librarian Sandra Whitborn are leaving on Monday to set up the library and train a young man and a young woman, who can continue the work after they leave. Desleigh has been to Suai several times before to teach English as a second language to young people and some of the school’s English teachers. Jenny Green is going to Suai again to do further training with the English language teachers at the Friends of Suai Community Centre. This will be the first trip for Sandra. Two library technicians were being trained for the new library in 2009.

Blood Orange flavoring concentrate formulated from the ground up for vape manufacturing and creating DIY ejuice recipes. Like the small canned mandarin oranges that come in light syrup. This is a sweet candied orange without the nasal high notes of a lemonade or blasting power of our orange citrus.
My grandma always had to buy these for me when i was a kid. Always loved the juicy, sweet orange taste without the cringy sour note of other citrus fruits. This is a strong flavour, maybe even a bit harsh the first couple of days. After that it smoothens down and i get a perfect ripe blood orange. I use this as a standalone with a bit of cooling. It shines with lemonade vapes and other citrus flavors, but i also like a few drops in cookies or cakes. After a long stay in the shelves the liquid fades a bit.
Great blood orange flavour I vape this constantly! | 2019-04-20T06:24:09 | https://store.flavorah.com/concentrated-blood-orange-flavor |

When creating a videogame independently with a fraction of the budget of the blockbusters, a major concern is always how your game will look and compare to those popular games. There’s a sort of arms race going on in commercial videogames where big companies try to outdo each other in terms of aesthetics. They continue to up the ante in realism, detail, spectacle, and so on. As an independent developer you can only really stare at that with open mouth in utter awe. This must be how people in Antwerp must have felt like when they first saw Rubens’ work. Or here in Ghent when they encountered the Van Eyck altar piece in Saint Bavo’s cathedral.
The popular solution to the impossibility of competing with that stuff (simply because indies don’t have that kind of money) is to go retro. Making your game look old on purpose is a huge time saver and taps into the audience’s nostalgia. This would have been an interesting area to explore for Sunset, especially given that Sunset is set in the year that Pong was released: 1972. But we decided against that.
Sunset: The videogame, in 1972.
The thing is, we absolutely adore Rubens and Van Eyck. And this sort of aesthetics is what drew us to videogames in the first place. We want to make art with places that you can visit and characters you can relate to. We want to feel the lushness of the environment and immerse ourselves in the atmosphere. But could we afford it?
After paying close attention to our own reactions to aesthetics in videogames and reading about those of others, we discovered something remarkable. For all the effort put into realism, paradoxically it seems that to closer a game gets to it, the less players care about it.
When you think about it, it makes sense. We play videogames to surround ourselves with an imaginary world, to basically get away from reality for a while. So when a game starts looking like that reality, we tend to ignore it. At the initial first encounter, there we may go “wow”. But a few realistic trash cans and true-to life palm trees later, we tend to stop feeling so impressed.
I’m not going to argue that the effort was wasted. The effect of that initial wow-factor is not to be underestimated. But this observation did seem to offer us, underfunded indies, an opportunity.
It wasn’t just practical reasons that drove us to stylization in Sunset. Conceptually, realism is easy. This is probably one of the reasons why it’s so ubiquitous in a field where technology dominates. Copying what you see is a straightforward idea and offers a clear goal to compare your efforts to. When done literally, there’s no artistically creative thinking required.
But, as noted above, absolute realism is also absolutely dull. We are human, we like to feel connected to other humans. When we look at a picture, we like to notice the presence of its creator, if ever so subtly. We enjoy noticing how the artist solved a certain presentation problem. Maybe because it tells us something about the person who made the picture, or about what they were trying to evoke. Or simply because it reminds us that the image was created by a human like ourselves, not a machine.
As classicists we can appreciate the inclination towards realistic figuration in videogames.
I have this theory, somewhat derived from something that Raph Koster said in Theory of Fun, that art happens exactly where realism is lacking. It is where a picture deviates from reality that the art expresses something, that the cosmic divine is allowed to peak through.
This doesn’t mean that completely unreal images immediately have a better effect. The tension between the abstract and the real seems to be pivotal. I deeply enjoy being fooled into thinking something looks real only to find out on closer inspection that it isn’t at all. Especially when the abstraction is meaningful in some way.
Actual sunset doesn’t look anything like this. But somehow to us this feels like sunset.
One of the tricks we use to pull Sunset away from realism is the exaggerated effect of the setting sun. Realistically speaking, when the sun sets its light diminishes and the effect of light from the sky increases. As a result, the world tends to look more bland and blue at sunset. But in our game it looks saturated and orange. Yet any human totally reads it as “setting sun” because it’s the color of the sun itself.
Another style choice is something we’ve developed over years of creating semi-realistic looking games on a budget. Based on something Fumito Ueda once said about Ico, we try to focus our efforts on the elements that are important, while leaving the others very simple, almost symbolic. This approach meshed really well with the particular seventies style that inspired us with its simple modernist architecture contrasted by detailed artworks and antiques.
A side effect of deviating from reality is that photographs look really weird in our world. And there’s lots of family photos of Ortega, and newspapers and magazines. So Auriea developed a style of fudging with photographic collages, halftone effects, and drawings that makes the pictures still read as photographs but look like they belong in our stylized apartment.
Collaborating with game artist Lucie Viatge, we came up with styles, which give the feel of photos from a distance, while up close are more painterly.
This is at the heart of our aesthetic motivation: things should feel real, but don’t have to look real. And in a medium where images are produced synthetically, not photographically, stylization tends to contribute to feeling real. I think this is because stylization is always subjective and as such an artist can guide the viewer to a place where they think the emotion happens.
Screenshot taken in Sunset’s MIN mode.
An extreme example of stylization is Sunset’s minimum quality mode. It was created to allow the game to be run on computers without proper graphics processor (ie those pesky integrated things that can only run 3D in theory). By leaving out the shadows and the reflections, the animated character and most of the image effects, we got pretty good performance but the game looked rather bland. So we added a pixellated and slightly posterized effect to that mode. It looks a lot better in our opinion. And as a bonus, it seems to be easier on the stomach of those sensitive to motion sickness in first person.
Sunset is modeled with mostly realistic proportions, give or take a bit of exaggeration for the sake of realtime 3D videogame presentation. We use reflections, and shadows and shiny materials that have a somewhat realistic effect. But we try to steer clear of anything looking too real. Which, ironically, doesn’t come easy with engines and shaders and scripts mostly created for the purpose of realistic depiction.
But through simplified shapes, generated textures and the extreme lighting conditions that the setting sun allows for, I am quite pleased with how the look of Sunset deviates from reality. And it is precisely the “how” that matters! I hope this means that some art will come out in the process. But that will be your call. | 2019-04-19T20:51:11 | http://tale-of-tales.com/Sunset/blog/index.php/2015/05/12/sunset-style/ |

Another day, another red carpet miracle performed by Zendaya. There's honestly nothing the multi-talented singer and actor can't do. I mean, have you even seen the promo for The Greatest Showman? If you didn't think she was magic before, Zendaya's butterfly gown has just proven that she's an actual beautiful butterfly.
Sure, you may think, "Hmmm a butterfly dress sounds ... questionable." Just wait, though. On the Australian red carpet for her film The Greatest Showman, the actor appeared wearing a gown clearly inspired by monarch butterflies, and it wasn't cheesy at all. It was a moment with a capital M.
Zendaya, however, is no stranger to have capital m moments on carpets. Only a few weeks ago, she appeared at the 2017 Fashion Awards looking stunning in a gorgeous platinum blonde pixie cut. Her fans were shook over the look, even if it was only temporary.
Now, they have a whole new reason to be quaking. Her gorgeous Moschino butterfly gown may have just stolen the show from her new Golden Globe nominated film. While the movie is obviously the reason people were at the premiere — it is a premiere after all — Zendaya's butterfly gown was just as exciting.
Take several moments, actually, because Zendaya and this dress deserve it.
Could this be her most iconic look yet?
She's basically a walking work of art.
It's good from every single angle.
Fans quickly too notice of the star's look on Twitter. It's safe to say that people can't get enough of this butterfly dress, and who can blame them?
Those other poor butterflies just can't compare to her. What a shame for them.
But really, she looks mind-blowingly good.
It's a whole lot of pretty to take in, so feel free to take your time.
Clearly, the fan love for the star is at peak fandom.
And this user may be right. The dress could actually be the best thing to happen in 2017. But hey, there's still time for Zendaya to come up and slay another outfit before the year's end.
Some asserted that only Zendaya could pull off the look. And they must just be right about that.
There's no telling what's to come from Zendaya. With red carpet season well on its way, she's bound to have even more incredible looks. She's become a bit of a must-see star on them anyway. And it's not just for her style.
Back in 2015, former Fashion Police host Giuliana Rancic made unsettlingly racist commentary about Zendaya's locs on the Oscars red carpet. Rancic said that the hair choice made the star look as if she smelled like "patchouli or weed."
Zendaya, like a queen, responded to Rancic's comments saying, "My wearing my hair in locs on an Oscar red carpet was to showcase them in a positive light, to remind people of color that our hair is good enough."
Rancic and her comments are not the reason Zendaya can now not be missed on the red carpet. Zendaya took a racist comment and turned it into a teaching moment — one she shouldn't have to give to white people. When people see her on red carpets now, they know (and should have always known) that the star is can't miss for both her style and her intelligence and poise.
Fans and fashion lovers can only hope to see more of the star's style moments. However, it's probably safe to say that Zendaya's gorgeous butterfly dress moment may just be difficult to top. Here's hoping we get even more miraculous Zendaya gowns during award season. | 2019-04-26T10:04:05 | https://www.bustle.com/p/zendayas-butterfly-gown-slayed-the-greatest-showman-red-carpet-twitter-is-so-shook-7650170 |

Peel and de-vein the shrimp leaving the tails intact.
Cut sirloin into two inch chunks.
Remove the seeds and stems from the bell peppers and cut into two inch pieces, cut the red onion the same.
Clean the mushrooms and trim off the bottom of the stem.
Take some kabob skewers and begin threading the shrimp onto the skewer alternating the shrimp with pieces of the onions, peppers and mushrooms.
Do the same thing with the sirloin and vegetables on separate skewers. (Keep the shrimp and beef on separate skewers as they have different cooking times, depending on how you like your beef cooked).
In a small sauce pan, melt the butter with the garlic until it simmers, remove from heat and whisk in the Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
Prepare a gas or charcoal, charbroil grill and heat to medium high and brush grill grates with a little oil to keep the food from sticking.
Season kabobs with lemon pepper seasoning and place on the lightly oiled grill.
Cook the shrimp kabobs for about three to four minutes and brush with Worcestershire butter, flip and repeat. The shrimp are done when they have curled a bit, but are no longer translucent in the center.
Cook the beef kabobs until the desired temperature, brushing occasionally with the Worcestershire butter.
Place kabobs on a platter and drizzle with any remaining butter, serve hot. | 2019-04-25T10:18:42 | http://www.gotexan.org/ExperienceGOTEXAN/GOTEXANShrimp/Recipes/QuickTexasWildCaughtShrimpandSirloinKabobs.aspx |
The English producer got lucky.
London producer Digital Farm Animals (DFA, for short) was hit by a lucky twist of fate in his search for a vocalist to top off his new track, "Wanna Know," a yearning dance track with a squiggly bottom line.
"The original was driven mainly by the bassline, and as there's so much space, it meant that the vocals really had to do something interesting," DFA recalled in an email to The FADER. "I had this idea to get an R&B influenced verse down, and by some crazy stroke of luck it was played to R. Kelly's team and he just happened to really dig it."
And so, the R&B icon joined the mix. Oooh he croons, before taking a deep dive into his near Drake-level insecurity. Who have you been giving your love to? he sings, I've been doing me so much, I guess you thought you should do you.
"His part really takes the track to another level for me," DFA said. For us too. | 2019-04-20T13:11:50 | http://www.thefader.com/2016/03/18/dfa-recruits-r-kelly-for-wanna-know |

The holiday season is a great time to take time to relax with family and enjoy new experiences. From a work perspective it is a valuable time to recharge the batteries and refresh thinking to return to with a renewed sense of purpose and energy….but, personally, it is also a time to be tuned in to organisations and their SERVICEBRAND.
We visited a couple of towns on the coast to the west of Lisbon, Portugal (the photo is a seafront sculpture)and our experience in two different restaurants offers an interesting perspective on the relative importance of customer touchpoints (albeit anecdotal and lacking in valid data or metrics).
On our second evening in Carcavelos, we decided to go to a larger, brightly lit restaurant with upholstered chairs and a large display of seafood at the entrance. Before we crossed the threshold, one of the waiters beckoned us to follow him and charged off to a table. He gave us menus and then, before we had started to look, returned with a tray of various dishes and asked what we would like for starters, not whether we would like starters or not. He had not asked if we wanted any drinks. We were already feeling as though he wanted to sell as much as possible as quickly as possible. When the food arrived it was tasty and well-cooked but because of the service, we left after the main course and had dessert at a different restaurant. There was one point of the evening when the service became friendlier…when the bill was requested!
The following night we were undecided between two restaurants next to each other, finally guided by our fourteen year old son who said he thought that Gioconda’s (restgioconda@netcabo.pt) looked more “homely” – small, darker wood, more dimly lit. We looked at the menu outside before stepping through the doorway to receive a warm smile and greeting. We were offered a choice of tables and drinks were ordered and brought immediately. While we were looking at the menu, the owner (? – he behaved like it) brought some bread, olives, cheese, prawns and fish pate. He explained that he would just charge us for what we chose to eat – we ate it all! The service was a lot more relaxed and attentive and, through our meal, as the restaurant became busier, it was clear that this was the same way all guests were treated. The food was tasty and we received well informed guidance on choosing a bottle of wine from the region. We were also asked how we were enjoying the meal in a genuine way and there was time for unobtrusive conversation. Yes, we had dessert.
When I returned to work, I was thinking about these two very different experiences. Choice of restaurant was made on the basis of physical appearance (from outside) so that is clearly very important. However, the service experience was an even more interesting aspect. In terms of process, this was very similar: approach, greeting, seated at table, starters, order meal and drinks, eat, dessert (or not!), pay and leave. However, the style was markedly different: pushy salesman doing a job v welcoming host wishing to please. At Gioconda’s there was an emotional connection and this drove many of our decisions.
Just how important a difference is this? Well, at Giocanda’s we had dessert (spend +20%) and also returned on our last night in town because it was the restaurant we had enjoyed most (spend +120%). How much would organisations pay for an approach that can drive a 140% improvement in sales? A sale is a by-product of delivering an enjoyable customer experience and in a face to face service environment this is highly dependent on establishing an emotional connection at the point of service delivery……………It’s the way that you do it. | 2019-04-20T10:34:10 | http://servicebrandglobal.com/its-not-what-you-do/ |
Letis talk about the Coldstone Engine. Is it written in C/C++? Did you use CodeWarrior?
Coldstone is divided in two parts: the editor and the compiler. The editor lets you manage the different parts of your game and put them together to create the story and gameplay. The compiler then takes all this stuff and create a stand-alone application on either Mac Classic, Mac OS X or Windows. The editor is almost 100% RB code but the compiler and the resulting applications are 100% C++. This allows for fast and professional games. We used Metrowerks CodeWarrior to develop the engine core.
Which graphic tools are your artists using?
Photoshop, 3D Studio Max and Graphic Converter.
Can you give us a brief overview of the use of sprites?
First, the sprite engine supports multiple layers and sprites of any size. This lets you create any type of world you want by placing several different pictures here and there or use one big picture for a whole map (like in Balduris Gate). The sprite engine (and editor) doesnit make any difference between an animation and a still picture (with little exceptions). This means that you can use the very cool (yet powerful) animation editor to create an animation and just add it in the map, in any layer you want. Second, the engine is true 32-bit color, which means that translucency effects are possible with picture formats that support alpha masks such as PNG. Also, all the game "windows" (like the shop interface for example) are rendered by the sprite engine to make them platform independent.

In the early days of Silicon Valley, one of the entrepreneurial hot spots that spurred innovation was Buck's Woodside restaurant (I recommend a visit if you are ever in the area). It's the place where entrepreneurs cut deals with venture capitalists (from nearby Sand Hill road) to launch many of the most successful technology companies in the world. However, in today's environment, a concentrated hot zone like Bucks or a Silicon Valley isn't viable (or wanted).
Instead, we are seeing highly decentralized hot spots of local innovation. One such place is Claire's restaurant in Hardwick VT (recently mentioned in the NYTimes). Local entrepreneurs meet at Claire's to jointly and cooperatively innovate. The main focus of their effort is to remake Hardwick (a failed mining town) into a vibrant community through a revival of local agriculture. To do so, they are building a complex hybrid of local agriculture, business, technology, finance, and community connectivity. For example, they share equipment, capital ($300,000 so far and counting), and insight. They even do business with each other and have joined cooperatively to create a 30 farmer community supported agriculture (CSA) program. Essentially, the effort underway at Claire's is building the foundations for a resilient community.
If there isn't a "Claire's" in your town, make one. | 2019-04-20T00:14:47 | https://globalguerrillas.typepad.com/globalguerrillas/2008/11/rc-journal-dece.html |
Wolverhampton Wanderers’ impressive adaptation to life in the Premier League continues to gather momentum as Raul Jiménez scored the only goal of a one-sided game to secure their first top-flight home victory since December 2011. Signed on a season-long loan from Benfica, Jiménez registered his second of the season on an afternoon when Burnley were outplayed and outclassed for long periods.
The result lifts Wolves up to ninth, following their win over West Ham prior to the international break, and leaves Burnley in the bottom three, winless in 10 Premier League matches and desperately needing a result to kickstart their season. Sean Dyche’s side have now lost four consecutive league matches and the truth is that the scoreline flattered them here.
Wolves could and should have won far more comfortably. The sight of Léo Bonatini missing a simple chance deep into injury-time, when the substitute shot wide with the goal yawning invitingly in front of him, rather summed up Wolves’ finishing. Nuno Espírito Santo, the Wolves manager, threw his arms around in disgust on the touchline, although it is Dyche, his opposite number, who has all the problems.
It was a strange game, slow to get going and half an hour before there was any meaningful goalmouth action. Then came a flurry of Wolves chances that saw Joe Hart produce a couple of instinctive saves as the Burnley goal started to live a charmed life. Diogo Jota, wriggling away from Phil Bardsley, who had already been booked for a foul on the Wolves winger, created the first opportunity by getting to the byline before cutting the ball back for Jiménez. The Mexican’s first-time shot was repelled by Hart and when the Wolves striker reacted first to the rebound, James Tarkowski was well-positioned to head off the line.
Back came Wolves again. Jonny Castro Otto’s low left-footed shot was hacked clear – the wing-back probably ought to have done better from 12 yards out and with one side of the goal wide open – and Hart then produced another stop to deny Matt Doherty, who was darting in from the other flank to meet Rúben Neves’s inviting inswinging cross. When Willy Boly volleyed inches over just before half-time, it was clear that Burnley were hanging on.
The impression was reinforced within a minute of the restart following a calamitous mistake from Bardsley that should have led to Wolves opening the scoring. Already enduring a difficult afternoon, Bardsley underhit a backpass to Hart and Jota was suddenly in the clear on the left. Jota momentarily forgot to take the ball with him, however, and that led to him squaring for Jiménez rather than trying to shoot for goal. To compound things, Jota’s pass was a little undercooked and invited Bardsley to make a desperate lunge that seemed to do just enough to put off Jiménez , who lifted his left-footed shot over the bar. What a chance.
There were, in other words, plenty of warning signs for Burnley long before Wolves eventually took the lead with a well-worked goal that carved the visitors open. Neves released Helder Costa and it was a clever pass from the winger that picked out the run of Doherty, who did well to hold off Johann Berg Gudmundsson as he angled the ball perfectly into the path of Jiménez . This time Jiménez made no mistake and guided a low right-footed shot from 10 yards in off the far upright.
Doherty really should have added a second 15 minutes from time, in a role reversal as Jiménez turned provider. Carrying the ball forward from inside his own half, the Irishman ran at the heart of the Burnley defence before swapping passes with Jiménez . One-on-one with Hart, Doherty fluffed his lines and dragged wide. Bonatini then had several chances to score after replacing Jiménez , including that gilt-edged opportunity right at the death. As for Burnley, apart from Matej Vydra’s angled volley, which was deflected narrowly wide, they created next to nothing. | 2019-04-22T08:07:27 | https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/soccer/english-soccer/impressive-wolves-make-breakthrough-against-burnley-1.3630976 |

Alcohol misuse is a significant public health challenge; it affects thousands of individuals, families and communities across the country and costs the NHS an estimated £3.17bn each year. The abiding images of ‘Booze Britain’ have however distracted Government and stakeholders from the imperative to treat alcohol misuse as a health problem. The Health and Social Care Act made provision for local authorities to take on responsibility for commissioning alcohol services. Key to the development of local services are Joint Strategic Needs Assessments and Health and Wellbeing Strategies undertaken by local authorities. This campaign aimed to highlight the health needs of alcohol misuse at a local and national health policy level.
A hugely creative, well-executed and compelling campaign in a subject area that is hard to address as coverage is often sensationalist. It made a demonstrable difference to policy in practice and delivered impressive outcomes against objectives that were both measurable and stretching. The alcohol check had a profound impact.

Staff and customers at supermarket Morrisons have raised £326,000 for CLIC Sargent around World Cancer.
This is the biggest ever fundraising event total raised by Morrisons, and the largest fundraising drive since Morrisons’ partnership with the cancer charity began in February 2017. Hundreds of stores across the UK held bucket collections and sold tens of thousands of World Cancer Day wristbands.
Staff and customers also took part in a wide variety of fundraising events and sponsored activities.
CLIC Sargent, which supports children and young people with cancer. launched its World Cancer Day appeal on 2 January, and it ran until the day itself on 4 February. The theme was ‘Banding Together’, and the charity encouraged supporters to buy a Band Against Cancer™ wristband and think about the people who have supported them.
The total amount raised during CLIC Sargent’s World Cancer Day campaign by all supporters and other corporate partners will be announced in the next few weeks. | 2019-04-24T22:18:49 | https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/03/08/morrisons-raise-record-326k-for-clic-sargent-for-world-cancer-day/ |

It is the difference between the price I pay for a good and the price I am willing to pay for it, rather than go without it.
Simple real life example: Think of a car auction, and you are the buyer.
You were willing to go up to 20,000 dollars on the car of your choice, but the bidding ended at 15,000 dollars with you being the highest bidder.
You bought the car at 15,000 dollars and thus enjoyed a 5000 dollar (the difference between what I was willing to pay for the car and what I actually paid for it) consumer surplus.
To determine the consumer surplus we first need to reflect back on the basic character of the demand curve.
Every point on the demand curve indicates a price and a specific quantity demanded at that price.
Thus at price P2, quantity demanded will be OQ2.
At price P3, quantity demanded will be OQ3.
By extension, at price P*, quantity demanded will be OQ*.
Thus we can conclude that consumers are willing to pay price P2 for quantity OQ2.
Now if the market equilibrium price is OP*, then the entire quantity OQ* is bought by the consumer at unit price OP*.
So we can say that the consumer pays unit price OP* even for quantity OQ2.
Thus when the consumer is paying unit price OP* even for quantity OQ2, he is enjoying a consumer surplus of P*P2 or BC price per unit.
That is the difference between what the consumer was willing to pay for the good, price OP2 and what he actually paid for it, OP*.
By extension the consumer surplus per unit at quantity OQ3 is P3P* or DE.
Thus the total amount of consumer surplus enjoyed by the buyer is the whole area P*P1A, when the market equilibrium price is OP*.
The bottom line is that the consumer surplus is the whole area under the demand curve up-to market price.
It is the difference between the price the producer is paid for a good and the price at which he is willing to supply the good.
Simple real life example: Think of a car auction, and now you are the seller.
You were willing to sell the car for 12,000 dollars (your minimum reserve price), but the bidding ended at 15,000 dollars, and it sold at that price.
Thus you as the seller enjoyed a 3000 dollar (the difference between what you were willing to sell the good for, and the price at which you actually sold the good) producer's surplus.
To determine the producer surplus we first need to reflect back on the basic character of the supply curve.
Every point on the supply curve indicates a price and a specific quantity supplied at that price.
Thus at price P2, you the producer were willing to supply quantity OQ2.
By extension, at price P3, quantity supplied will be OQ3.
But if the market equilibrium price is OP*, quantity supplied will be OQ*.
Thus we can conclude that producers are willing to supply the quantity OQ2 at price OP2.
Again if the market equilibrium price is OP*, then the entire quantity OQ* is sold at unit price OP*.
So we can say that the producer gets paid unit price OP* even for quantity OQ2.
Thus when the producer is fetching unit price OP* even for quantity OQ2, he is enjoying a producer surplus of P*P2 or BC price per unit.
That is the difference between the price (OP2) at which the producer was willing to sell (supply) the good and what he actually gets paid for it, OP*.
By extension the producer surplus per unit at quantity OQ3 is P3P* or DE.
Thus the total amount of producers surplus enjoyed by the seller is the whole area P*P1A, when the market equilibrium price is OP*.
The bottom line is that the producer surplus is the whole area above the supply curve up-to market price.
Here a country imports a good (say coffee), since the import /world price of coffee is lower than this country's domestic price.
Without coffee imports, the domestic price is OPA and quantity is OQA.
But the world price of coffee (which is the price at which this country can import coffee) is OPW.
If this country imports coffee at that price, then her domestic demand will be OQ2 (demand will increase because of the lower price) while domestic supply will fall to OQ1 (supply decreases with a fall in price).
The differential between domestic demand and domestic supply is Q1Q2, which is the amount of coffee imported.
So, because of coffee imports, consumers pay less for coffee, unit price PW, not PA.
Consumer surplus before coffee imports is BAPA, and BDPW after imports.
Thus consumer surplus increases by amount (a+b+c).
But since producers now get paid less (OPW instead of OPA unit price), thus producer surplus goes down from PAAE to PWFE, i.e., by amount (a).
So in the final analysis, the drop is producer surplus is (a), while the gain in consumer surplus is (a+b+c).
Thus imports increase national well-being by the amount (b+c).
Here a country exports a good (say coffee), since the export /world price of coffee is higher than this country's domestic price.
Without coffee exports, the domestic price is OPA and quantity is OQA.
But the world price of coffee (which is the price at which this country can export coffee) is OPW.
If this country exports coffee at that price, then her domestic demand will be OQ3 (demand will decrease because of the higher prices) while domestic supply will increase to OQ4 (supply increases with a rise in price).
The differential between domestic demand and domestic supply is Q3Q4, which is the amount of coffee exported.
So, because of coffee exports, consumers pay more for coffee, unit price PW, not PA.
Consumer surplus before coffee imports is DAPA, and DHPW after exports. Thus consumer surplus decreases by the amount (e+f). But since producers now get paid more (OPW instead of OPA unit price), thus producer surplus goes up from PAAC to PWBC or amount (e+f+g).
So in the final analysis, the increase in producer surplus is (e+f+g), while the drop in consumer surplus is (e+f).
Thus exports increase national well-being by the amount (g).
To see this we draw the demand and supply curve together in a market equilibrium set up.
The domestic price of coffee is P* and quantity Q*.
But the world price of coffee is PW.
Without the imposition of any tariffs, at price Pw, the domestic supply will be PwD, while the domestic demand will be PwA, and the differential AD or Q1Q2 is imported.
Thus consumer surplus (the whole area under the demand curve up-to market price) before imports was HAP*.
But after imports it is HGPw. So consumer surplus increases by P*AGPw (HGPw-HAP*).
Now the government imposes a tariff of "t" raising the price of coffee to Pw+t.
Thus now consumer surplus is HBPw+t.
So consumer surplus has decreased by Pw+tBGPw or area (1+2+3+4) due to the imposition of the tariff.
But on the other hand producer surplus has increased.
Before the tariff imposition it was area PwDI.
After the imposition of tariffs, it is now Pw+tCPw or an increase of area.
So we have three things happening after the imposition of tariffs.
1) A loss in consumer surplus of area “1+2+3+4"
Since loss is greater than the gain, area (2+4) is the net loss to society due to the imposition of the tariff.
This is called the "dead weight loss"due to tariffs. | 2019-04-21T12:38:18 | http://econmentor.com/college-macro/international-economics/international-trade/effect-of-tariffs-on--consumer-and-producer---surplus/text/1072.html |
The warm daytime temperatures and cool nights of fall are perfect for establishing plants. That’s because warm days encourage growth, while cool nights prevent stress and allow plants to get acclimated. On the other hand, when you plant during the hot days of summer, new plants are constantly under stress and will require more resources (water) to stay healthy.
That said, this year Lake Erie reached a record temperature, and the warming effect of such a large body of water impacts soil temperatures. Our ground in Northeast Ohio, especially along the lake, will probably stay warmer for longer. This could very well extend the planting season this fall in Northern Ohio.
Fall weather is naturally wetter in Ohio. We get more rainfall, on average, and that soil moisture is better for planting. Proper soil moisture is critical during the initial stages of root establishment. And, it lessens the burden on commercial property owners to constantly water newly planted trees, shrubs and turf. By planting in fall, plants get a strong “head start” before winter and spring, and by summer when temperatures heat up and soil dries up, roots are deeper and more developed so plants are more resilient.
Fall is a great time to reseed areas of lawn that suffered from damage this summer, or to plant a brand-new lawn if a complete renovation is necessary. Again, the benefits include more ground moisture, moderate soil temperature and overall “stress-free” conditions for root establishment.
We love to see crocus peek out of landscape beds in early spring and bright, showy displays of daffodil that signal warmer days ahead.
These bulb flowers must be planted in fall. The problem is, we often forget about planting bulbs until the warm weather returns and we’re waiting for that first pop of spring color.
Talk to your landscape provider about spring color plans now, and if that includes bulbs they can be planted before the ground freezes.
Fall is a great time to review your property and do a walk-through with your landscape provider to identify areas you want to invest in and improve during the coming year. Because it’s not too late to plant, you can take advantage of the temperate fall weather to get plants established now get a head start on spring.
There’s no reason to wait if your landscape plan includes planting grass, installing shrubs and trees, or even putting perennials in the ground. And, if you don’t have a plan, it’s a good idea to sit down with your landscape provider before year-end to discuss your goals and budget for next year.
We are heading into cooler weather, but your landscape is just as visible now as it is during summer. So, continue the level of maintenance and investment in enhancements to keep your Northeast Ohio grounds looking their best. We have ideas for you!

I love that this is the new direction of surfboard shaping. Wood. Off the grid.

Tab Hunter Net Worth 2018: Hidden Facts You Need To Know!
1 He was the younger of two boys. His brother, Walter John Gelien (born August 18, 1930), was killed in Vietnam on October 28, 1965, leaving seven children.
2 He was born Arthur Kelm in New York City. His mother, Gertrude (Gelien), was a German (Catholic) immigrant. His father, Charles Kelm, was Jewish. Tab was raised in California by his mother and maternal grandparents, Ida (Sonnenfleth) and John Henry Gelien.
3 Was Warner Bros. Records' first signee.
4 Hunter and his companion Allan Glaser met in 1983. The couple co-produced the films Lust in the Dust (1985) and Dark Horse (1992).
5 He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 6320 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.
6 On December 23, 1980, he suffered a heart attack at age 49 while skiing in Taos, New Mexico. In March 1991, he suffered a stroke. He recovered from both.
7 Had a lifelong love for horses.
8 The name "Tab Hunter" came from agent Henry Willson who wanted to "tab" the actor wannabe with a catchy new name. "Hunter" came from his skills as a horseman who rode hunters and jumpers.
9 Was once arrested following an L.A. raid on a "pajama party" in Walnut Park in 1950. Tab was eventually fined $50 for a reduced "disorderly conduct" charge after originally being charged with "idle, lewd or dissolute conduct."
10 Following the likes of Richard Chamberlain, Tab released his tell-all 2005 memoir revealing his homosexuality. The book entitled "Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star" outlines a late 1950s relationship with actor Anthony Perkins that lasted several years. Other briefer flings mentioned included dancer Rudolf Nureyev, actor Scott Marlowe and ice-skater Ronnie Robertson. The book was actually written in 2003 but held in release for two years.
11 He co-executive produced and hosted the cable television series Hollywood on Horses (1989).
12 His bare chest was chosen to adorn the cover of Donald Reuter's book: "Shirtless! The Hollywood Male Physique."
1 When you're as young as I was and you're thrown into all of that and everyone's going [makes kissing sounds], it's really going to take your head and send you on a journey. You're not going to hate it, but you're just going to try to have the wherewithal to find your balance, hopefully. How could you not love being at home up in Lake Arrowhead with Kay Starr singing her hit song "Side by Side" and Judy Garland on the floor, and the two of them doing a duet? You'd be an idiot not to go for it and love it.
2 It's all very important, but the real important thing is, I think, not labeling a person. The first line in my book is, "I hate labels." It's who we are as human beings. What kind of human being are you? Are you a contributor?
3 When things stop happening, it is a shock. But you have to go with the flow of things. You have to understand, "This is happening. It can't be forever. This is the now. It's the way it is. Life is not the way you want it to be -- it's the way it is." "I want this," "I want that," "I want this," "I want that" -- there's too much of that.
4 What you are as a human being inside is what's important. My mother told me, "Don't get concerned with the externals." Everyone today is concerned with how they look, how they're presented. Strip it away.
5 I had a very grounded family. My mother was very structured. She used to say, "There is yes and there is no and there is no in between." Tell that to people today. And I had a brother that I looked up to that was terrific. When negative things happen, you just have to believe that somewhere under the pile of crap is a pony. You just gotta be positive, 'cause there's too much negativity around.
6 I think marriage is just between two people and their maker, period. Doesn't concern any of us, whether it be a woman and a woman, a man and a man, or a man and a woman, I don't care.
7 I still don't look at it as if I've come out. Coming out, what does that mean? What I'm concerned about is people as human beings. Are you a decent human being? What are you contributing? That's important.
8 [on Gary Cooper] Coop was a lovely guy. His sense of humor was kind of within. He'd do something he knew was funny. He laughed inwardly. It was a delight! He's say things, then chuckle within himself. He was wonderful, low-key, like Fred Astaire, an absolute gentleman. These are quality, quality people. They have their own atmosphere about them. Coop's was very laid-back and easy.
9 [about his love for Montecito, California] It's like the French Riveria without the French. I thank God every day I'm able to be there.
10 [in a 1971 interview] The star thing is over. I've knocked around quite a bit in the past few years and now I'm just another actor looking for work. Acting is what I know and what I do best . . . I'm trying to find a new niche . . . something to help erase that bland image the studios gave me in the Fifties. I'm looking for roles that will establish me as a more mature actor.

We are exposed to physical and virtual systems every day. They consist of computers, PDAs, wireless devices and increasingly, robots. Each provides services to individual or groups of users whether they are local or remote to the system. Services offered by these systems may be useful beyond these users to others, however connecting many of these systems to more users presents a challenging problem. The primary goal of the research presented in this paper is to demonstrate a scalable approach for connecting multiple users to the services provided by multiple systems. Such an approach must be simple, robust and general to contend with the heterogeneous capabilities of the services. An infrastructure is presented that addresses these scalability requirements and establishes the foundation for contending with heterogeneous services. Additionally, it allows services to be linked to form higher-level abstractions. The infrastructure is demonstrated in simulation on several similar multi-robot systems with multiple users. The results propose it as a solution for large-scale human-system interaction. | 2019-04-23T08:28:43 | http://cres.usc.edu/Research/004abstract.php |

Last month, about four weeks to the date, I said spring felt closer than ever. I was so right! How exciting is this, guys? I’m concerned about what consistent 80-degree temps in Chicago in March mean for the planet, but I totally dig it. How can I not? Anyone else with me? When I first started the TRIA process last November, spring was truly a pipe dream. I didn’t know what to expect but I was committed to giving it my best effort. Which is easy to do with the TRIA, thankfully.
March threw some challenges. I’ve been so rigid about every other Saturday, even setting up calendar reminders to keep me on track, but I had some travel that fell over the weekends. My solution? Pack up the TRIA and bring it with me! It’s very portable. I opted not to bring the charger (mainly because I forgot) and luckily the battery lasted. That is something I’ve had challenges with at home (because I often forget to juice up the device!), so I was happy that it didn’t quit on me mid-treatment.
The theme of March really is change. Not only did I travel with the TRIA but I also began using it weekly on the underarm. I decided to do that because I’m impatient. If I’m being honest! It’s not that I’m not seeing results, it’s just not like the flip of a switch. I no longer have a need to shave every day under the arm – which is a change from the last 4-6 weeks – but my thinking is I can speed it up. I still see hair, but I notice it’s sparser. I think it’s because I’m so excited that I’m watching it more closely now. I see the finish line ahead, but know that I still have to get there.
Did anyone take advantage of the TRIA promotion we offered earlier this month? Would love to hear if any of you are using this or have any questions! Let us know. And, if you’re just joining us now, here’s a link to our previous TRIA updates. | 2019-04-25T12:12:29 | https://www.product-girl.com/archives/tria-laser-hair-removal-update/ |

Paz Benavidez, the newly appointed director of the Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI) under the Philippine Department of Agriculture in the Philippines, visited IRRI on 16 September to boost ties with the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI).
"I really need to know more about IRRI and its relationship with BPI and how to strengthen our partnership more," said Atty. Benavidez.
Dr. Bruce Tolentino, deputy-director general for communication and partnerships, provided the BPI head and members of her party, Dr. Vivencio Mamaril and Ms. Edith Almirante, with an overview of the Institute's work. The group also visited the International Rice Genebank, the Golden Rice screenhouse, the Long-Term Continuous Cropping Experiment plot, and IRRI's seed health unit and breeding lines.
"I think IRRI is a responsible institution when it comes to handling seeds and materials, especially transgenics," said Atty. Benavidez.
IRRI has worked with BPI for about 30 years in releasing the seeds of new rice varieties developed by the Institute. | 2019-04-20T14:38:12 | http://news.irri.org/2014/09/new-chief-of-bureau-of-plant-industry.html |
Assurance implemented Cornerstone Recruiting, Cornerstone Learning and Cornerstone Performance. “I knew that Cornerstone could be configured to meet the needs of a small HR team and accommodate the company’s 12% percent growth rate. With Cornerstone, you can make your talent solution anything you want it to be. The sky’s the limit,” said Katie Dykstra, human resources manager at Assurance.
Today, the team also applauds Cornerstone’s intuitive interface and comprehensive customer care. According to Bethany Stripp, talent system specialist at Assurance, “As an administrator, it’s an easy-to-understand system. I have access to so many resources—the Success Center, CSM experts, Office Hours, Online Help.” The team also attends Cornerstone quarterly meetings to share best practices with other users. “I love that I have a network outside of my organization that wants to help me,” said Katie Tarpey senior human resources generalist at Assurance.
Although the insurance brokerage could have selected a talent platform designed for mid-size brokerage, Assurance wanted a solution that would enable growth. “We definitely thought about scalability. We’re expanding across the country and have four more offices opening in the next five years,” said Dykstra.
Previously, reporting on continuing education (CE) credits to maintain licensure was a manual, time-consuming process. “Cornerstone’s flexibility allowed us to add a custom field for CE credits. Now reports are easy to run and upload to the state,” said Passananti.
Improved feedback process to boost day-to-day performance.
Before Cornerstone and the DNA Performance process, performance conversations at Assurance were often difficult. Now, with a new feedback process in place, managers say they feel more empowered to have frank, honest conversations. This updated process has helped employees to know where they stand and they look forward to receiving feedback to improve their day-to-day performance.
Created a centralized place for all learning content.
“With Cornerstone, people can easily digest content on demand in one place and in a very self-directed way,” said Passananti. In 2017, Assurance had more than 9,000 hours of training logged in the system.
Set the stage for succession planning and career pathing. | 2019-04-21T22:01:55 | https://smb.cornerstoneondemand.com/client-story-assurance |

It’s been a while since I last did an update on the Impact Community Garden, so I thought it was about time to do so. Last month we cleared out the areas that had been planted in potatoes and green beans and I tilled them up to get ready for some fall crops. Then we planted kale, collards, cabbage, broccoli, turnips, chard and Chinese cabbage. That should make for a lot of greens in the fall and early winter months. I’m hoping we can get some quick growing salad greens and Asian greens planted later in the month. I really like to keep the garden working as much as I can, for as long as I can.
We planted Tuscan Lacinato and Winterbor kale varieties. The Lacinato is already showing its characteristic dark, blistered leaves. I love this kale for cooking, and for making kale chips. The Winterbor is a curly, dwarf type that has also done well for us here at HA. Winterbor can take a lot of cold. It actually survived the winter here last year, and gave us a few early greens this spring before it bolted to seed.
The collard greens are the hybrids Top Bunch and Flash. I’ve grown Flash before, but Top Bunch is new to me. I’ve got both kinds planted here as well. Actually all the fall varieties we planted at Impact are also planted here in our home garden. Collard greens aren’t quite as cold hardy as kale, but they should survive a good bit of freezing weather. Like a lot of greens, the flavor actually improves considerably after the leaves have been frosted on and frozen. I’ve never tried making chips with collards but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. I like collards because they are larger growing, and give you more bang for the buck in a given space than kale.
The broccoli plants are a mix of Windsor and Packman varieties. And the cabbages are mostly Parel, which is a small sized fast growing type. The Chinese cabbage is looking great, but it’s got a bit to go before it starts heading up. The variety planted is Soloist.
The rest of the garden is in various stages. The summer squash and cucumbers are done for. There’s a few butternut squash left to harvest, but the vines are done for the year.
Peppers are still hanging on, though some rain would be nice. We’ve had less than an inch here since early July. We’ve had to water parts of the garden to keep it going, especially the fall crops. A thick layer of straw mulch is helping there as well. And tomatoes are still producing. The vines are well out of their cages on most varieties.
That’s a look at what is going on at the Impact garden. With any luck, there will be a lot more vegetables to harvest before the garden is done for the year. We also have sweet potatoes to dig, probably in early October. Then it will be time for cleanup, and to start planning for the 2012 garden. It doesn’t seem like it’s been a year since we first brain-stormed this project. Time sure flies, doesn’t it? I hope you enjoyed the update.

The garden is doing beautiful and should be productive well into the late season with your guidance and good planning. The plants look like they are off to a good start.
We are transitioning our Giving Garden project into fall production as well. We hauled in a large truckload of worm composted llama poop about two weeks ago and worked it into some new planting areas and seeded and transplanted quite a few fall crops. They are up and growing splendidly. Getting ready to cover those sections with large grow tunnels later this month to keep them producing well into the winter. Our summer was rather cool but this past week and coming week were actually normal temps and the tomatoes at the Giving Garden are finally pouring on. It’s a great feeling to do our twice weekly delivery of produce to the local food bank outlet and watch how our fresh produce is the first thing to be selected. We are managing over 50 lbs of produce a week for them and I am happy with the production of this new garden.
I’ll bet that worm/llama compost really makes the garden grow! And I’m sure all the output of the Giving Garden will be well received. Sounds like you are working hard to grow those fall crops. | 2019-04-21T16:35:49 | https://happyacres.blog/2011/09/02/impact-fall-garden/ |
I try to refrain from the Burda bashing. I still love the magazine and find enough patterns that make it worth the annual expense . But, I hate the new sheets and was SALTY about the merging of the English website with BurdaStyle. Well, Burda has upped the ante by converting the old Russian and French sites to the Burdastyle.com format.
Let me explain. I don’t read Russian. But, the Italian website was close enough to Spanish that I could muddle through for previews of the magazine and most importantly the photo/ community forum. The forum and website platform were across multiple languages. It was great because the Russian women sew the hell out of Burda with AMAZING results. It’s where I got a lot of my inspiration and was really the best place to see a lot of Burda patterns sewn up. Plus, the modeling of the photos is SERIOUS. Despite the different languages, the site’s database was the same so I could see photos from everyone (Russian) while on the Italian site.
Well, now with the new site(s) they are all independent. So, I can’t use the Italian site to see what the Russian women are up to. So, with a little help from my Ukrainian friend Anya, I am up on the Russian site and I’m bitter. I’m bitter because it’s a PITA for me to muddle through it even with Google Translate. But, I’m REALLY bitter because the Russian site is just what I hoped the English Burdastyle would be. Let’s take a gander, shall we?
On the Russian site, you get the dress and are able to comment. But, best of all, they link you back to the pattern with the line drawing *and* link other versions of the dress uploaded. The old Burda didn’t do that and the current Burdastyle in English doesn’t either.
The English site (above) only lets you do this if you have done a pattern that was downloadable.
Look at this too. On the Russian site, you can search by type of pattern and the patterns go back to 2007. Do you know how long I have dreamed of a pattern index for Burda magazine? I have 10 years worth of them!
Sigh. The English Burdastyle is still not my thing. I get that they started off open source and it looks like they are trying to be more like the magazine now. But, they only have the patterns that are for sale. And no links to the actual magazine. But, it’s just not what I need from them yet. If you have the patience to muddle through the language, I recommend the Russian and Italian sites. The Russian site has WAY more traffic and many many great models of the clothes in the magazines.
I’m quite new to sewing and have to admit that I’m yet to hear something good about burda! I’m quite put off ever using their patterns!
Please don’t count out Burda Patterns. The patterns are great. The websites stink.
Oh! That’s brilliant! Thank you. And, coincidentally, as far back ad *my* collection goes 🙂 I always found it frustrating the website wasn’t cataloguing these older editions because I remembered looking at them 10 years ago online!
Ohh “salty” I like that term, I am salty at BurdaStyle too 😉 it was great that they started off as open source and we could still go to the original Burda site but since the merge…sigh!
What I don’t understand is why they have so many different layouts across so many sites. Wouldn’t it be easier (and smarter) to have just one layout supporting different languages? It seems to me like they’re putting in extra work and still making people mad. Or maybe they’re just putting extra effort into making people mad. I’m not sure which.
I don’t get it either! The old site used to go across language platforms so you were sharing the same photo forums. These new ones are independent of each other. So, I tried the new Italian site but not as many people were on it so I went to the Russian site. I think I’m going with ‘extra effort into making people mad’.
I’m unclear about something. You said the Russian BurdaStyle site has been removed yet, later you recommended the Russian site. Are you talking about an archived site? I can’t access it at http://www.burdastyle.ru. Is there a different URL? I can read a little bit of Russian. I used to use the German site (and way before that, the English one) and I would love to use an archive of the magazines as I have four or five years’ worth of issues.
I agree with you that the English BurdaStyle website is totally INADEQUATE and not user friendly. Time to brush up on some Russian.
Lots of excellent software developers leftover from the URSS..
Did you know that if you enter the main site URL into translate.google.com, you can then navigate the site just by clicking on that translated page and it translates automatically for you? It’s no panacea, their vocabulary is limited and the text can be downright weird in many places :-), but it allows you to get a feel for what you’re seeing, and at least navigate. If we all used it, maybe Burda would get the point finally?
That’s what I’m hoping! I’ve been using google translate to figure much of my way through and posting comments in both Russian and English.
I agree! The English site is something totally different! I remember how confused I was after the merge.. and disappointed. I can read a little Russian, but WHY would I go through all this, if a simple solution like CGCouture suggests here, is available? And why would sewists from different countries and backgrounds be treated differently?
I wonder if they split the company up by countries? Would that make sense?
but I do’t know if it has what you’re looking for.
Burdastyle online has always felt like some VIP club I didn’t have a golden ticket to- I never could navigate it in any language……I ‘m so not one of the cool kids.
Yep, way too old for Burdastyle.
You know how much I love BurdaStyle Magazines, but I am so disappointed in the websites. I’ve been using the Italian site since the French site went through its changes. All I’m able to do is download line drawings and garment pics for my index.
I meant to say I’ve been using the German site.
I stopped taking Burda because my (ahem) mature eyesight can’t handle the new pattern sheets. And it is very annoying that English readers/speakers are very much second class citizens in terms of Burda’s world. Oh well.
Hey thanks for this….I’ve just been too disillusioned to go through all the different country sites to figure out which one was the best….was using the Italian for a while, but glad to know the Russian is the good one. Went over there, and it’s amazingly well designed. Would love to get the ear of some Burda big-wig to find out exactly what’s going on.
They don’t seem to care about what their customers want.
I always just muddle through the Russian site. I love what the Russian women make, it is the same for knitting/crocheting they are the ones making dresses and the complex patterns.
i’ll have some salt on my dish as well, please. i’m from the burdastyle open source camp, just went by yesterday and couldn’t believe how much it had changed. it’s on the fast track to becoming the exact opposite of what lovers of burdastyle are used to. and it’s still vastly different from what lovers of burda sites miss. neither group gets what they want, it boggles the mind.
there are still free patterns on the open source site, though it’s a trick to find them. they seem to have disappeared from the “patterns” section, but if you go to the “projects” section, you can narrow down your choices to “patterns you can make”, then choose “by members” (for selfish’s coffee date dress, for example). i was going to put this tip on the forum, but i noticed that tips for this sort of thing were taken down or changed. seriously, big brother burda?
I found that if you go to the pattern page, by category…they put them on the LAST page of each. Yesterday, I downloaded a dozen patterns (3 purchased) and it was the same for each (dress, blouse and jacket). Maybe it’s chronological order but it looks like entrapment ie you get pages and pages of patterns to buy before you hit the free stuff. Nevermind that the free stuff is what gets you HOOKED!!!!
I was pretty ‘salty’ in my comments on Burdastyle’s English site too. The only thing that I can think is that once they sell the magazine they don’t care about anything but selling their select group of patterns by download. I would assume that they make more money that way.
Renee, you nailed it. You would think that Burda would be thrilled to please its core USA customers and provide customer support on an equal basis across country and language lines. I received the July issue today, and found a preponderance of “bag” tops, dresses, skirts etc. for which no actual pattern is necessary. I “discovered” Burda through PatternReview in 2008, and frantically bought back issues. Since the website merger, magazine offerings have been on a downward trajectory as well. I “get” the need to recruit new sewists to the Burda franchise and take advantage of the reality show inspired interest generated in sewing. The Burda hallmark has been fit, intelligent (do I say it?) continental style (Classic with an edgy soul) not throwaway fashion. Burda can satisfy loyal customers and brand samplers/novice sewists with the same product, if only the product people started listening to actual Burda customers.
Bonjour, Burda, toute personne qui écoute?
Здравствуйте, Бурда, у кого-нибудь слушать?
Sigh…. I am newly “back into sewing” and just subsribed to Burda after hearing so much praise in general. I just received my first issue and wasn’t impressed, and having looked through the English website had honestly wondered what all the hoopla was about. Apparently I’m not the only one that isn’t so impressed….. I will remain optimistic that future issues improve!
I don’t think that dress reads mother of the bride at all. I’m still using the old French site which still lets you get at the archives just fine. I have noticed that they stopped putting the line drawings in the more recent issues along with the modeled photos which is really annoying since it’s impossible to see the structure especially in the modeled photos with prints.
For a quick view of the Russian links in English, pass the mouse over the link. An English translation of where the link takes you appears in the lower left-hand area of the window. I browse with the latest version of Firefox.
That dress and vest is very cute and I think would suit you very well. I’m off now to check out the Russian site. Thanks!
That dress is so cute, and will be perfect! I stopped subscribing a year ago, the transitions became too much trouble to fumble thru. I do miss getting my mags every month tho.
The translation is killing me! “After that, the village dress perfectly” — good to know, I was wondering what they were up to.
I really want to like Burda. I really do. But I can’t stand the Burdastyle. I’m too old. Not cool enough I guess. Marfy could take over the world with a little help. Their styles are cool. | 2019-04-23T16:36:09 | https://missceliespants.com/2012/06/24/beating-a-dead-horse-burda-website/ |

It's my birthday tomorrow so I decided to make myself a cake! I gave up all sugar and desserts for Lent, so it doesn't matter to me that my birthday cake isn't edible. This miniature cake is made from polymer clay (what else?!) and in once inch (1:12) scale. The candles are extremely tiny, and if you read this previous blog post you'll know that my birthday candles have became far smaller, but I use a new technique which means that they are actually far less fragile and less likely to break than birthday cake candles I have made before.
The cake is a tall one - being 4 layers of vanilla sponge and pale blue icing. It's topped with confetti and of course tiny candles.
Since we're on the topic of candles, if that interests you, you might want to take a look at my realistic pillar candles which I've made for my film company (photos here) and which can of course be bought online here.
Don't miss out on new cakes which are gradually being added to the online Hummingbird Miniatures Etsy shop here!
PS Did you know that you get free delivery if you purchase from my Hummingbird Miniatures online store on the day of your birthday? Just email me a snap of your ID that shows your date of birth and I'll grant you a birthday code for free delivery, no matter where in the world you live. The purchase must be made on your actual birthday. If you've already made a purchase on your birthday and didn't use the code then just email me and I'll send a reimbursement for shipping via PayPal.
Last week I showed you some photos of my workspace with the black forest cakes (or gâteaux) in progress. They're all finished now and listed at my online Hummingbird Miniatures Etsy shop here!
They're one inch scale and made with great attention to detail. I actually think they're some of my most detailed cakes and I was very happy with the design because they're different to any other dollhouse miniature black forest cakes I've seen. I opted not to put cream on the top or outside, which would have been a bit more traditional. My cakes have cream on the inside and chocolate icing on top. There are two kinds of cherries and some on the top have the stems.
A great center piece for your miniature shop or kitchen / dining room!
Where did the last month go?! If you're ever wondering where I've disappeared to, since I don't update Hummingbird Miniatures or my other blog with the frequency I used to, it's probably because I am busy over at Tall Tales Productions, creating miniature model sets and working towards a stop-motion short film. You can keep up with this here at the blog, or here at the Facebook page.
So... here at Hummingbird Miniatures I have been creating cakes, cakes, cakes! I have made a cute new range of detailed black forest (gateaux) cakes, to my own design and also started creating a whole new range of miniature birthday cakes with candles.
Here's a glimpse into my workspace below. One inch scale black forest cakes, made by myself with huge attention to detail out of polymer clay. These miniature cakes have two kinds of cherries (dark and also maraschino (glacé) cherries on top, which are lighter and brighter, and there's cream inside the cake and chocolate frosting on the top. So they were a lot of work and will be available at the online Hummingbird Miniatures shop just as soon as we re-open. Email me if you're interested in reserving one! | 2019-04-19T23:11:52 | http://hummingbirdminiatures.blogspot.com/2015/02/ |

That bandpass is good for isolation of spikes, given their short timeframe. If one is interested in LFPs, you can drop your high pass, but typically those signals have bigger excursions than the spikes. Thus you’d either miss your spikes having lower gain amplification to catch the LFP, or you’d saturate the LFP trying to capture the spikes. For recording both spikes and LFP simultaneously, some people split the signal early, and then amplify a low bandpass at a lower gain, and a higher bandpass (e.g. 0.6 – 6kHz) to get spikes.
Thanks a lot for taking time to answer so thoroughly. I think I am starting to understand this a little better. | 2019-04-21T03:15:59 | https://clampthis.wordpress.com/2012/12/07/ebae-iii-a-forum-on-in-vivo-recording-approaches/ |

Below are some households who have received installations from SmartPaani’s technical team. Some installations have been running for 3 or more years. The installations are rainwater harvesting, biosand filtration, and even simple techniques of gardening and recharging greywater. We will continue adding clients to this page as work moves along both old and new clients.
Proprietor of “Jewel Metal and Furniture”, Kamal Bahadur Gadaraj had just begun building his house at Nayabazaar when he heard about rainwater harvesting. He knew SmartPaani’s Gokul Dangal and thus, in his house’s design, rainwater harvesting and biosand filter systems were incorporated. It has been 3 years since these systems were installed and they have helped make his life go smoothly. He does not buy tanker water since rainwater and well water (filtered by biosand) is enough to meet the water demands of the 11 people in his house. Though extremely happy with the system at present, he was hesitant at first whether he would be able to drink the water filtered from biosand as promised by the technician. Now he is drinks it and is confident. Even his Rs. 50000/- investment on this has returned within a few months. He recommends these systems to other people and recently one of his neighbors installed rainwater harvesting and biosand filtration upon his recommendation.
Impressed by what she heard about the rainwater harvesting systems at the Fulbright Commission from its director, Frances contacted SmartPaani to inquire about rainwater harvesting and greywater recycling. After an assessment by our team, the decision was made to install a rainwater harvesting system as the first phase. The installation was completed at the beginning of March by Raju and Hem. Before the rainwater harvesting installation Frances was almost completely reliant on tankers of water. While it won’t completely eliminate tanker purchases, it will reduce them significantly. She was happily surprised by how quickly the system began benefitting her, in the second week of April her tank was almost empty and she prepared to order a tanker, that evening it rained again and the rains continued for the next 4 days, eliminating her need to buy a tanker. While the system is new, the SmartPaani team has taught her staff maintenance and is providing technical support while the 3 free visits that come with the system have eased her concerns about maintaining it. | 2019-04-21T18:07:36 | http://oneplanetsolution.com/portfolio/householdcasestudies/ |
Premium Wire has been manufacturing quality lamp shade frames and ring sets in the United States at our Mayfield, Kentucky plant since 1982. Our skilled craftsmen have decades of experience and continue to expect the same excellence today that they've demanded of themselves since day one.
From the quality of our welds to the caliber of our craftsmanship, every piece reflects our commitment to quality. Because of our experience and understanding of the lamp shade manufacturing process, we realize the importance of making sure our rings are round, our spiders straight and our welds solid and free of burrs and rough edges. We use only galvanized steel, so there is no need for messy or inconsistent after-treatment to prevent rust and discoloration. This gives our customers a competitive advantage when selling to both their wholesale and retail customers. Better frames and ring sets make for better shades.
We can generally ship an order in two weeks or less. Combined with our centrally located plant, this means that orders can be delivered in weeks rather than months. This also allows customers to respond to short-term fluctuations in their own volume requirements. | 2019-04-23T02:19:17 | http://www.premium-wire.com/about.php |

You will learn lots of great information about soccer from this article. It’s always a good thing to learn tips and tricks about soccer. This is why you should keep reading here so you’re able to have a lot more fun the next time you play soccer.
In order to improve your skills, the two necessities are practice and dedication. Big improvements take time. Find time daily to practice your soccer skills. Practice all your soccer skills, regardless of how difficult they are. You need to work on your best skills also, since there is always room from improvement.
TIP! Passing the ball is best done when defenders are closer to you. The ball should be kept for a long time so you’re able to advance past everyone safely so you can pass it off.
If you are in the center of the field, keep in mind what is happening on either end of the field. You ought to be able to get the ball on one side and switch the ball to the other right away. It is essential to know where open and defense players are all the time.
A competitive spirit is essential for making the cut on a good soccer team. Always show an assertive spirit. You need to prove to the coach that you’re devoted and will be an asset to the team.
TIP! Figure out surprise plays. All good players know how to take advantage of an opponent’s weakness, especially if you’re doing the same thing over and over again.
If the ball is in your possession when a defender approaches, make it look as though you plan to make a pass. By doing this, you will make him pause for a second, which will allow you time to decide your best strategy moving forward. This tactic works even better if you exaggerate your movements.
Confusing the opposition can help improve your game. Dribble to one side and then quickly pass to the opposite side. Defenders might not anticipate such a move, and your teammates will thus find an opening. It can take a little time to get a rhythm going with your team.
Practice dribbling with tennis ball to improve your dribbling. As this ball is so much smaller, you will have to gain control through constant movement. Once you are comfortable dribbling a tennis ball, see how easy dribbling a soccer ball is.
Work through set plays often; they will help you make better decisions during a match. Try having a teammate guard you while you are attempting to make corner kicks. When you practice these plays regularly, you can use them wisely during games. This will up your winning chances.
TIP! Team goals are as important as individual goals. Success in soccer requires that the whole team work together as a whole.
As you make mistakes, learn from them. You might notice that when you dribble the soccer ball down the center of the field, defenders are able to take it from you. Compare your technique to other players who are more successful dribblers. Practice kicking the ball on your own time to perfect your accuracy and control.
If you’re trying to get into a soccer team, you have to do some of the moves you’ve practiced and don’t try to do anything you’re not that great at. Do not attempt any moves you are completely comfortable with until after you are on the team. Tryouts are for showcasing your strengths to the coach.
TIP! Play soccer indoors every once in a while. By playing indoors, you will be playing in a smaller field.
It is important that you visualize winning in your mind. When you believe that you can win, you will be more confident and play at a higher level. A positive attitude can help your team win.
Soccer players can run the full gamut of emotions during a game. Disappointment can come fast on the field in a matter of mere seconds. Controlling these emotions by focusing on the positive and releasing the negative will improve your own play and the morale of the team. A lot of times, you’ll be more confident and win more games than you’ll lose.
TIP! Try finding professional players who usually play your position and pay attention to the techniques they use. When you can imitate his techniques, you will better your game.
Becoming a better soccer player is a great goal. Soccer is a sport where you have to be a team player. Use what you learned here so you and your team can play the best games ever.

Le Nguyen Vy hopes his art will be remembered forever, his chosen medium is certainly durable – Vy was one of the first artists in the country to superimpose photographs on stone.
It’s not only the images of celebrities like President Ho Chi Minh and musician Trinh Cong Son that Le Nguyen Vy sets in stone, he also likes to capture famous landscapes like Ha Long Bay and Ngu Hanh Son Mountain.
The process is delicate and precise and Vy goes out of his way to find the best materials for each photo. Whenever he receives a commission, Vy heads off to streams and rivers in central Quang Nam Province, where he says the best rocks can be found, worn smooth by the running water.
choose a stone,” he says.
inspired him. Then he discovered photography.
“Before 1975, taking photos was not easy. I was lucky enough to have a friend who could teach me, but I knew it would be hard to feed my family as a photographer,” he says.
After studying and practising, Vy was finally able to process a black and white photo on stone in 1,995m, while other artists around him were pasting photos onto stone and wood.
People like being reminded of the beauty of nature, he says, especially in this tech-centric age.
Le Nguyen Vy developed a technique to superimpose colour images onto stone in its natural state. He has since started using seashells.
Desperate to find a silver lining, Vy started to learn the techniques all over again – this time for colour photos. And this time, he learnt how to superimpose photos without changing the shape of the stone.
To do this, he needed to buy advanced technology and quality chemicals. This needed money. With the full support of his wife and children, Vy remortgaged his house and sold his motorbike, the only one in the family.
Vy receives a certificate from the Vietnam Record Books Centre for his art work - the first of its kind in Vietnam.
was doing,” says Vy’s wife Tran Thi Chanh.
It took him ten years, but Vy finally turned his dream into reality in 2005 when he sold his first colour photos on stone.
His venture has been a roaring success. Since 2005, Vy has held exhibitions in Da Nang City and opened a gallery in HCM City.
Chau Thang, a resident in southern Kien Giang Province, says he was very impressed by the stone photos, especially the photos of the late President Ho Chi Minh and musicians Trinh Cong Son.
Going from one success to another, in 2007 Vy clinched a place in the HCM City-based Vietnam Book of Records for his product – the first of its kind in the country.
Although Vy needs technology to superimpose the photos in a process he keeps top secret, each piece is unique and has a personal touch.
“The artist has to have a keen eye to make the most out of the colour, light and texture of the stone,” he says.
One piece can take months to complete.
“The most difficult thing is superimposing the photo onto the stone. Once that’s done, the stone is varnished with a special protective chemical that will keep it from fading for 20 years or more.
Today, Vy works from dawn until dusk fulfilling orders. The artist has also developed ways to print photos on seashells.
“For me, one quality work is better than ten badly-done pieces,” he says. | 2019-04-20T01:06:47 | http://travel.org.vn/in-depth/profiles/2009/03/artist-builds-stepping-stones-to-success.html |
I’ve got your answer right here.
I like how it breaks down in each category. For example, I knew I wanted 9 pairs of shoes, 9 bottoms, and 15 tops. Then the remaining 4 were just enough for 2 dresses and 2 jackets/coats. To me it feels generous yet minimal.
And honestly? It’s not about a number. The point is to try something new if you’re unhappy with your current closet situation. If 37 isn’t your thing, find a number that’s right for you.
Do you buy 37 new items for each season?
Nope! Each capsule is sourced from these three categories: (1) pieces I already owned that were in storage, (2) pieces that rolled over from the previous season, (3) new pieces I purchased. The amount I buy each season varies, but my goal is to strike a balance between keeping it minimal + making sure it’s a fun experience.
What do you do with the clothes once a season is over?
They go one of three places: (1) Some are rolled over into my next capsule wardrobe (2) Most are put into storage for next year (3) Worn out items are donated.
Where do you store your clothes when they’re not in season?
If you have perfectly good clothes, why do you put them in storage?
It gives them a break so they don’t wear out prematurely. It also gives me a chance to shake up my wardrobe. I may be tired of wearing a certain piece, so I’ll retire it for a season — but then when I pull it out of storage 3 months later, it’s love all over again. Most importantly, it keeps my closet clutter-free which really simplifies getting dressed in the mornings.
What’s your end goal with all this?
My goal is to build a thoughtful, intentional, useful wardrobe. I’m sure I’ll still buy clothes sometimes. But I can take those purchases super slow and avoid making emergency purchases all together. You know — the “I need shoes for TONIGHT!” purchases. Instead I can purchase clothes from small, independent makers — even though they take a few weeks to make. Since I’ve got a great wardrobe underneath me, I can afford to wait. I can afford to hop off the fast fashion train.
Do you feel restricted with such a small wardrobe?
Not at all. There’s been a lot of talk lately about the paradox of choice. That is, we tend to assume that more choices = better options and greater satisfaction, but it actually causes anxiety and limits creativity. The more I’ve limited my choices in my wardrobe, the happier and more creative I’ve felt. It’s so refreshing to open my closet door and find a clutter-free zone, filled with all I need and nothing I don’t.
Do you limit your accessories, too?
While they don’t count in my 37 pieces, I still limit them because I have a limited budget. I only have a handful of accessories and since my style is simple + pared down, I tend to wear just one piece of jewelry with an outfit — either a statement necklace or my beloved Madewell bangles.
Do your clothes wear out faster?
Surprisingly, not really. Here’s why: Even when I had more in my closet, I was reaching for the same pieces again and again anyway + rewashing those over and over. I wrote a whole blog post on making your clothes last here.
Does a capsule wardrobe have to be neutral?
I live in Texas so we lean towards a warmer climate. But, just like most places, the weather can be all over the board. During my first season (winter — January thru March), we had temperatures ranging from 22°F – 91°F.
I notice you don’t wear any traditional business attire — why not?
I work from home — I’m a photographer, a blogger, and a creative business coach — so business attire doesn’t fit my lifestyle.
Try applying the general concept, but build two mini capsules — one for work and one for home.
I’m not ready to get rid of all of my clothes — any advice?
Simply store them instead. Boom — safety net! It gets the clutter out of your closet but it takes the pressure off. And later, if you realize you miss something, you can go grab it.
I really like the idea of a capsule wardrobe, but I’m not sure.
If I’m ever starting something a little scary (new workout routine, new eating habits, a new project), I’ll take the pressure off myself by playing a little game with myself. I call it: “I’ll give it 3 months.” Because putting a time limit on something scary makes it seem a little more sane – even fun. So commit with passion and give it 3 months. And then if you didn’t like it, you can move on + never do it again. But you never know — you just might like it + learn something new about yourself!
And remember that it’s not meant to be a miserable experience – it’s meant to be fun! The goal here isn’t to bash shopping + clothes + style. The goal is to try something new if you don’t like your current closet situation. Trying something new + taking control of our closets can be a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to change our lives — either by changing our attitude or by changing our actual situations. Rewrite the rules a little to fit your own lifestyle and keep an open mind. If you need two capsule wardrobes (one for work and one for the weekends), go for it. If you need more clothes than the recommended 37, add ‘em in. No matter what, make it yours — and enjoy it!
I don’t have much money to spend on clothes right now.
You don’t have to spend anything to start a capsule.
I didn’t spend a cent on my first capsule. I just pared down what I already had and lived with it. Was it the perfect capsule? No. But did it teach me a TON about my wardrobe and my style? Yep!
Not having any money to spend on clothes was exactly what prompted me to start looking into capsule wardrobes in the first place. I felt envious of people with huge wardrobes, so I thought if I redefined what a wardrobe meant to me, I could find contentment with what I had.
But if you’re really wanting to get some new clothes without spending any money, host a clothing swap with your friends — they’re a blast!
Do you try to live minimally in other areas of your life?
In general, my husband and I try to own less stuff. But we aren’t extreme — we like keeping it minimal and enjoying our stuff.
My mega talented friend, Becky Murphy.

Cosmetologists focus on providing hair care services to enhance the appearance of customers. A number of workers offer specialized services. Manicurists and pedicurists work exclusively on nails and provide manicures, pedicures, polishing, and nail extensions to clients. Skin care specialists, or estheticians, cleanse and beautify the skin by giving facials, full-body treatments, and head and neck massages, as well as apply makeup. They also may remove hair through waxing or, if properly trained, with laser treatments. Finally, in larger salons, shampoo technicians specialize in shampooing and conditioning hair.
In addition to working with clients, personal appearance workers may keep records of hair color or skin care regimens used by their regular clients. A growing number actively sell hair, skin, and nail care products. Cosmetologists and other personal appearance workers who operate their own salons have managerial duties that may include hiring and supervising workers, as well as keeping business and inventory records, ordering supplies, and arranging for advertising.
Cosmetologists and other personal appearance workers held about 663,300 jobs nationally in 20012. Overall employment of cosmetologists and other personal appearance workers will grow by 13 percent nationally from 2012 through 2022.
Teresa G. Bowles, Cosmetology Program Chair, Business and Education division, joined the Athens Technical College faculty in 2006. Along with over 30 years' experience in the industry, Ms. Bowles also taught as an adjunct at the college. She earned her Cosmetology diploma at Athens Technical College and a Bachelor’s of Science in Education for the University of Georgia. Ms. Bowles received the Rick Perkins Nominee award in 2011 and 2016 and Is currently involved with the Professional Beauty Association, Look Good Feel Good program, Hair and Makeup of Northeast Georgia as well as attends seminars related to the beauty industry to maintain knowledge and techniques up to date. | 2019-04-22T11:01:11 | https://www.athenstech.edu/studentAffairs/programs/programInfo/programPage.cfm?p=Cosmetology |

New Delhi, Apr 14 () India's largest IT services firm Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is "hungry" for acquisitions and is scouting for assets that can bring in intellectual property and widen market reach to further accelerate growth.
Speaking to , Chief Operating Officer N Ganapathy Subramaniam said TCS had acquired two entities -- W12 and BridgePoint Group -- last year and both of them have been integrated well with the Mumbai-based firm.
"We continue to remain open and hungry for acquisitions. We have one of the best track records in terms of acquiring companies and integrating them... the approach is that clearly, we are in the market looking for the right asset which will add certain amount of IP (intellectual property), market reach or client addition," he said.
TCS, which had acquired French SAP service provider acquire Alti SA for 75 million euros (about Rs 533 crore) in 2013, has been focussing on organic growth even as its global and domestic rivals went on an acquisition spree.
Infosys acquired consumer insights agency WongDoody for USD 75 million last year. Wipro's investment in the digital space includes entities like Designit and Cooper.
TCS, in November last year, announced the acquisition of W12 Studios (for an undisclosed amount). A digital design studio based in London, the acquisition of W12 was part of TCS' efforts to bolster its digital and creative design capabilities.
In the same month, TCS acquired the business of BridgePoint Group, LLC, a US management consulting firm (for an undisclosed sum).
Asked about the opportunities in the market, Subramaniam said there are options, especially among startups.
"Some of the startups are doing very well, blockchain is an area where lot of firms have come up. There are many who are working on future of financial services, future of cash, future of payments... so we continue to watch closely some of those technologies and startup firms, how their business models are emerging," he said.
Subramaniam asserted that if TCS found the right framework, it "will not hesitate" to make an offer.
"It has to make sense in terms of both value and the combined value of TCS and the asset that we are acquiring should really be great," he added.
The Mumbai-based company, which reported a 17.7 percent growth in profits at Rs 8,162 crore and 18.5 per cent rise in March 2019 quarter revenues to Rs 38,010 crore, continues to remain bullish about growth this fiscal. | 2019-04-20T14:18:34 | https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/tcs-says-hungry-for-acquisitions-eyes-further-acceleration-in-growth-tcs/articleshow/68872194.cms |
Hello everybody! I played BDO since launch. I have a lot of knowledge to share and am certain I can help teach new players to make things less confusing.

The Black Widow (Bk. #16) by Daniel Silva opens with the violent death of another venerable Jewish person intent on preventing a reoccurrence of the atrocities of Hitler’s Germany. Hannah Weinberg created the Isaac Weinberg center for the Study of Anti-Semitism in France (fictional) at the end of Silva’s novel, The Messenger (Bk. #6) She also owns a (fictitious) van Gogh painting, Marguerite Gachet at Her Dressing Table, used to call attention to real events in French history – Jeudi Noir and the Paris Roundup of 1942.
Who is responsible for this bombing and assassination that kills Hannah and other prominent invitees to a conference at the center in Paris? Why are so many Jews leaving France to go to Israel in the midst of Palestinian rocket launches into Israel?
This particular book seemed to touch on issues that are not settled territory for me, perhaps because it brings us to a time that is more contemporary than previous books in the Allon series. For one thing I cannot help having some sympathy for Palestinians, although I think their militant approach to what they see as Israeli imperialism made it impossible to take a diplomatic stance that could have led to shared ownership and peace, instead of eliciting a corresponding violence in the Jewish people. Having just learned of the annihilation of 6 million Jews in Europe, the Jewish people found themselves homeless until they were granted a toehold in Israel, and the lesson they had learned, that they could not afford to trust any nation, had just been driven home so tragically. They were more than ready to defend their new nation.
The second part of this particular Gabriel Allon op was about Syria, and refugees, and ISIS, and the radicalization of Arabic people displaced by war (and others). ISIS appears to promise the vulnerable and dispossessed a new nation – a caliphate – a chance to restore pride and offer them a return to their homeland. (There is no place like home.) There is no instant fix to the whole issue of how Muslims and Christians can learn to live in closer proximity than we did before the Iraq war; it requires an investment of time and tolerance. I cannot help but feel sorrow for people who were forced to empty out their country because of Bashar al Assad’s unwillingness to be humane. But I also find myself fearful at the idea of a regimented caliphate that exhibits a violent missionary zeal. Fighting terrorism seems an appropriate action for nations to undertake.
Does it trivialize the rise of ISIS to put it at the center of a thriller. Perhaps, a little. But it also allows readers who don’t pay much attention to news to get some insight into the genesis of ISIS, its history, its rationale, and its modus operandi. This time Gabriel turns a secretary/administrative assistant into The Black Widow who can join ISIS and perhaps track down the identity and location of Saladin, the illusive man directing recent terrorists activities in Europe and hoping to do so in America.
We know Gabriel does not have a problem using females in spy ops and we also know they often end up in great physical peril, as does Gabriel. How does his black widow fare? The issues I encountered with The Black Widow were personal, so see what feelings this interesting thriller, full of all your favorite Silva characters, engenders in you. I did like the perspectives it gave on the war in Syria and the rise of ISIS. | 2019-04-21T04:42:39 | https://www.thearmchairobserver.com/tag/the-black-widow/ |
There is no business like show business and like always, the dream factory continued to attract creative minds in the year that went past too. Established directors have been cementing their position which is on expected grounds but what was interesting and uplifting was the burgeoning trend in Thamizh cinema of talented directors who are making the dreamville their abode of brilliant creative radiance.
In a panegyric gesture, this writer wishes to throw light upon the talents who have made the industry and audience turn their focus on to them as these creative geniuses are going to be the future of Thamizh cinema under whose spell the industry is all set to scale respectable heights. Take a bow people! You deserve the best!
Balaji Mohan showed a new path of entry into the filmdom through short films. His much popular short film Kaadhalil Sodappuvadhu Eppadi paved way for a full length feature film that earned him the name and fame. KSE struck a chord with the youngsters for its youthful execution.
For Lakshmy Ramakrishnan, Aarohanam was a passion unleashed and she proved that age is never a deterrent when it comes to chasing one’s dreams. Her film which dealt with bi-polar disorder had the critics rooting for her and the industry applauding her work. Lakshmy wowed her audience with a sensitive portrayal of an aberration and eschewed clichés to get across her point.
Santhakumar’s Mounaguru was just another film when it was released. But at the end of the first show, everything changed and the viewers could not believe that it was the work of a first time director. Intelligently scripted, Santhakumar moved his narration with a precision of a professional archer that the accolades were the only logical offshoot. The icing on the cake was the award Santhakumar received from Amitabh Bachchan at the recently held Chennai International Film Festival.
The very title Nadula Konjam Pakkatha Kaanom was sufficient to evince the desired impact on the audience. And director Balaji Tharaneetharan managed to translate that interest to positive box office response. After completing Editing at Film Institute, Tharaneetharan set out to edit a few ad and corporate films. Nevertheless, his interest was only towards direction. A special mention award for ‘Andha Summer Leave’ at Lucknow Children’s Film Festival was a concentrated impetus to move towards his goal and a chance narration of a real life story to the producer resulted in his first film. Showered in appreciation for a completely tangential trajectory from the established trends, Tharaneetharan has proved that he is here to give a different experience to audience and Thamizh film industry as such.
It is interesting to observe that director Karthik Subburaj of Pizza also took the same route that Balaji Mohan undertook, that of short film to feature films and found his niche. Pizza remained the talk of the town for its thrill and suspense factor and the director kept his red herrings coming at regular intervals. The remake of Pizza in other south Indian languages is the obvious aftermath of such an astounding success for Karthik Subburaj.
When the promos were released for Sundarpandian, it was just another film from another first time director and the draw was only Sasikumar. However, the first show led a frenzied cell phone tapping of positive feedback among the movie going populace and director Prabhakaran had arrived. A simple premise but an engaging narration was the keyword. It is no surprise that Prabhakaran is doing his next project for Red Giant with Udhaynidhi Stalin and Nayanthara.
For Pa Ranjith who took his direction lessons from Venkat Prabhu, Attakathi proved that he has had his coaching well from his guru. Having received his formative lessons in drawing from the prestigious School of Arts, Chennai, Ranjith began his career as a storyboard artist for Venkat Prabhu’s album and the liaison further resulted in Venkat Prabhu beckoning Ranjith to join him. After working in Chennai-28, Saroja and Goa in all the departments of film making, Ranjith set out independently to begin Attakathi. He attributes his learning to the immense freedom given by Venkat Prabhu.
Madhubana Kadai directed by Kamalakannan had the movie buffs appreciating him for an experimental style that scanned an entire day at a liquor shop which was done with an impassive approach. It was like a tour of a TASMAC bar and Kamalakannan sure rendered a ‘spirit’ed experience to the viewer.
In addition to all these promising debuts, we also had Aishwarya Dhanush, Andrew Louis Vasanth and Anbazhagan making their signature stamp with 3, Leelai and Saattai respectively which was more than exciting to say the least!
In the past there have been new directors entering the field which was well within a normal number. However the recent past for Thamizh industry has become past perfect as there has been a significant inflow of new talents in direction. As Pa Ranjith rightly pointed out, this trend owes its gratitude to the discerning Thamizh audience who has always remained open and warm to experimentation and new ideas.
Way to go folks and here is wishing you creatively fulfilling and uncompromising times ahead!

The franchise has installed digital menu panels in all of their branches that feature changeable food and drink offers. The unique thing? They can change it anytime they want and that too according to the time and what would attract the customers the most!
The manager of the franchise has the power to change the menu whenever he wants. He can put a breakfast offer in the morning and then later in the afternoon when the teenagers get off school, he/she can change the menu to something different that attracts that specific audience.
While printed menus have been in the scene for a long time, digital menus give them more flexibility and a chance to play around and experiment. The customization helps the franchise to send a specific message to specific audience at their peak hour. Donut King entered the fast food scene in 2013 and has quickly incorporated digital technology for marketing and provide a good in-store experience.to cater every customers’ needs. | 2019-04-25T00:17:38 | https://www.evolvear.io/augmented-reality-blog/donut-king-takes-in-store-marketing-to-the-next-digital-level/ |
Confirming leaked rumors that appeared mere hours ago, Trion Worlds has announced that the MMO studio would be 'transitioning' to Gamigo Group. In a brief press release, provided in full below, Trion World states that not all of the studio's employees would be making the transition.
Theres no word yet on whether any of the 5 games currently offered by Trion would be shutting down. The studio is best known for the fantasy MMORPG Rift which started as as subscription game in 2008 and had its own 'transition' to free to play in 2013. Trion also develops Atlas Reactor, Trove, and Defiance 2050. They are also the Western publisher of Korean MMORPG ArcheAge.
Gamigo is a free to play MMO portal based in Europe that is best known for publishing Grand Fantasia and Last Chaos. The company purchased rival gaming portal Aeria Games in 2016. Previously, Gamigo purchased the assets of defunct North American portal Outspark. With its active track record in the industry, its fair to say Trion will not be Gamigo's last acquisition.
We'll provide updates to the merger as they become available. | 2019-04-23T10:53:35 | https://mmos.com/news/trion-worlds-sold-gamigo |
