The global's first university powered by Blockchain technology could set up shop in Malta, and academics from some of the global's top universities have already signed up, as per reports from Medium on August 24.
The Woolf university’s framework is planned to complement both online and onsite learning/teaching in every corner of the world by offering students with improved personalised tutorials. Running on Blockchain technology will also empower it to guarantee the security of the student’s degrees.
The Blockchain technology will also endow the running of multiple number of smart contracts which validate attendance and assignment completion as soon as students and teachers ‘check-in.’ The university Teachers will be paid in tokens and also offer micro-credits to all students.
With some of the giant cryptocurrency exchanges going to Malta and Maltese government setting ICO-friendly bills, it’s not really why projects like Blockchain university have decided to set up shop in the small island country.
The university considers on having multiple regulatory partner later and its founders have selected Malta as the datum and a beginning point.
The first phase will consist the launch of 5 distinct colleges, and thereafter the founders of university hope to allure academics with a doctorate from one of the global’s top 200 universities.
Today, Woolf university employs a variety of high and well-qualified professors and lecturers, whereby a lot of them come from Oxford University. Nevertheless, the faculty also brags lectures from Cambridge University, Leipzig University, George Mason University, Kyoto University and King’s College London.
While Woolf University had at first considered to fund the university via a public ICO, it has since found adequate private investment to retard the purpose to go public.

Attaway (1991) ,"An Empirical Investigation of the Impact of Negative Public Publicity on Consumer Attitudes and Intentions", in NA - Advances in Consumer Research Volume 18, eds. Rebecca H.

Negative publicity episodes have become increasingly common over the past several years. To a marketing practitioner, such incidents represent a serious threat to a firm's well being. A better understanding of consumer reactions to negative publicity may enable marketers to more effectively deal with these threats. Limited academic research, however, has investigated the strategic impact of negative publicity. This paper reports an experimental study intended to explore the influence of various negative publicity scenarios and target firm responses on consumer attitudes and purchase intentions.
Each year billions of dollars are spent on promotional activities in the United States in an attempt to influence consumer attitudes. Favorable publicity, coming from an uncompensated source lending a high level of credibility, is a very effective element of the promotional mix. Nearly everyone, from television evangelists to political candidates, neighborhood restaurants to the largest industrial manufacturers, uses various forms of publicity to secure donations, votes, or customers. Each of these organizations, however, is also vulnerable to the potentially devastating impact of negative publicity.
The influence of negative publicity is difficult to overstate. Empirical studies have found that negative information is capable of significantly affecting consumers' consumption related beliefs and attitudes. In fact, it has been shown that a single item of negative information is capable of neutralizing five similar pieces of positive information (Richey, Koenigs, Richey and Fortin 1975). Other research has found negative information results in more strongly held attributions regarding product beliefs than does positive information (Mizerski 1982) and the effect of negative information is more enduring than positive information (Cusumano and Richey 1970; Richins 1983). Researchers have also shown that negative information more strongly influences attitudes and purchase intention than does positive information, particularly in the service sector (Weinberger and Dillon 1980). In addition to empirical findings, even casual observation of recent events (i.e. Perrier contamination, Exxon's Valdez accident, and the ongoing saga of the PTL Club) clearly illustrate the damaging impact of negative publicity.
The questions "How do negative publicity events influence consumer attitudes and purchase intentions?" and "What actions can the target firm take to minimize the impact of negative publicity?" are of relevance to both marketing academicians and practitioners. Addressing these questions requires a better understanding of the relationship among the various elements pertaining to negative publicity, and their impact on consumer attitudes. In addition, how the target's response affects consumer attitudes requires investigation. Academic research in general, however, and empirical investigations in particular, regarding consumer's perceptions of negative publicity episodes are scarce. Similarly, little attention has been focused on the strategic importance of the target firm's response to such incidents.
One notable exception is the study by Tybout, Calder and Sternthal (1981) investigating the application of information processing to the design of marketing strategies. This research provided the essential first step in the examination of negative publicity. Tybout et al. used an experimental setting to evaluate the effectiveness of different response strategies to a negative publicity rumor. The results suggest the traditional strategy of directly refuting the rumor was not effective. However, this study did not include manipulation of any situational variables, nor investigate situations where negative publicity resulted from an actual incident rather than rumor. As a future research issue, Scott and Tybout (1981) called for the investigation of "situational qualifiers" (p. 408) which influence the impact of negative information and are therefore of particular relevance to managers.
This study attempts to help fill the informational void regarding negative publicity situational qualifiers. First, the impact that three characteristics have on consumer attitudes will be measured. The three dimensions, previously posited as classification dimensions of negative publicity (Sherrell and Reidenbach 1986), are locus of responsibility, credibility of the reporting source, and the target's performance history. Second, the influence of the target's potential response strategies will be assessed for their influence on consumer attitudes. Third, respondent suggestions for response strategies will be analyzed and discussed.
A study was designed to provide information on the impact of the experimental manipulations on the consumer's general attitude toward the target firm and future purchase intentions. Subjects' ability to make causal attributions provides the conceptual framework for the hypothesized relationships.
Locus of responsibility has a theoretical foundation in attribution theory. Specifically, the "discounter principle" provides insight into the hypothesized impact of internal and external locus of responsibility. Kelley stated "The role of a given cause in producing a given effect is discounted if other plausible causes are present" (1973, p. 113). In negative publicity situations lacking plausible alternative causes, the consumer is likely to make a stronger firm-related attribution, placing the blame on the target company and lowering the consumer's attitude toward the firm. Conversely, if alternative plausible causes are present the firm attribution will be less strong and not affect the subject's attitude as severely.
H1: External locus of responsibility will result in more positive attitude ratings toward the firm and greater intention to purchase.
Marketers have long assumed that a more credible source is more influential (see McGuire 1968; Sternthal, Phillips and Dholakia 1978). Conceptual support for this assumption is provided by traditional attitude theory and attribution theory. Attitude theory suggests that attitude change occurs when an individual is exposed to a persuasive message which alters the individual's beliefs. Source credibility is a central variable to the formulation of such a message.
In attribution theory, the receiver of a message attempts to determine the reason for that message. The credibility of the source is one factor affecting the receiver's inference (Eagly, Wood and Chaiken 1978). A highly credible source draws the receiver into making a stronger attribution regarding the message, yielding a more significant impact on attitudes. Conversely, a source low in credibility may be "discounted" and result in little attitude change. Richins (1984) suggests that positive information is expected and has little impact, while negative information is unexpected and is more likely to be believed. Richins' position is consistent with the literature regarding the impact of negative information (Kanouse and Hanson 1972; Mizerski 1982; Richey et al. 1975; Weinberger and Dillon 1980).
Empirical research on the impact of source credibility in negative information scenarios is contradictory. As an example, Weiner and Mowen (1986) investigated the influence of source expertise and trustworthiness on consumer attitude formation. They found that in situations where the source was expected to be biased, the subjects did indeed discount the message. (For other examples see Dholakia and Sternthal 1977; Sternthal, Phillips and Dholakia 1978).
H2: Less credible sources will result in more positive attitude ratings toward the firm and greater intention to purchase.
When attributors are exposed to multiple observations, substantially more information is available to apply in an individual's causal attribution process. These circumstances give rise to Kelley's (1973) "principles of covariance". Kelley suggests that, given multiple observations of the same effect, an "effect is attributed to the one of its possible causes with which, over time it covaries" (1973, p. 108). In a negative publicity setting, a firm with multiple occurrences of a problem is more likely to be perceived as the cause of that problem. Conversely, if the episode is an isolated incident, the consumer's ability to attribute the responsibility solely to the firm is less powerful.
H3: Target firms with no history of product failure will receive more positive attitude ratings and higher intention to purchase.
The target responses used in the study are similar to those investigated by Tybout, Calder and Sternthal (1981). These researchers discovered, contrary to previous attitude theory and intuition, simply refuting a negative rumor was an ineffective response tactic. Based on information processing theory, an explanation for the failure of the denial strategy was offered. In brief, consumers' attitudes are affected simply by processing information they receive, even if they do not actually believe it. As plausible alternative response tactics, Tybout, Calder and Sternthal (1981, p. 74) propose utilizing a "storage strategy", whereby a second positive piece of information is interjected when the negative information is being stored, or a "retrieval strategy", through which additional stimuli are introduced as a means of diluting the association between rumor and target. Basically, these strategies involve providing additional informational cues which associate the firm with positive information or inhibit the retrieval of the negative information. Both strategies avoid repeating the rumor which is necessary in a denial strategy. Results of the Tybout et al. study supported the use of both storage and retrieval strategies.
H4: A denial response will result in the lowest attitude and purchase intention ratings, no response a neutral rating, and a redress response the most favorable attitude and purchase intention ratings.
One hundred and ninety-six students attending a major state university voluntarily participated in the study. The subjects were recruited from those enrolled in various undergraduate business classes and were assigned randomly to one of the treatment groups in a 2 X 2 X 2 X 3 full factorial experimental design. After editing, 188 subjects were retained for analysis.
Prior to developing the scenarios and designing the questionnaires, an appropriate context had to be determined. The context had to be relevant to the experimental subjects, but yet not so personal as to limit the range of attitudes. After reviewing several possible options, the fast food industry was selected as an appropriate experimental context. Fast food franchises have experienced their share of negative publicity (i.e. McDonalds massacre; reports of ground worms in hamburger meat; kangaroo meat passed off as beef) and hold high personal relevance to the test subjects. In addition, the subjects (college-age consumers) represent an important market segment to the fast food industry. One of the recent negative publicity episodes focused on the presence of salmonella bacteria in poultry products. Applying this to the fast food industry was simply a matter of reporting that a restaurant had allegedly sold chicken that resulted in several cases of salmonella poisoning.
Scenarios were constructed around the fried chicken franchise/salmonella poisoning context. The three situational manipulations were developed in all possible combinations and then matched with three response strategies. The scenarios are as similar as possible in all other respects.
Locus of responsibility was manipulated by reporting that salmonella poisoning could result from (1) improper storage and preparation of the chicken or by (2) failure to refrigerate the chicken following preparation. Under the internal (first-responsible) locus condition, it was reported that high levels of bacteria were detected in chicken tested on the premises of the target firm. The franchise was then charged with failure to properly store or prepare the product. The external locus condition reported no bacteria was found in the chicken at the store and the poisoning was attributed to the consumer's failure to refrigerate leftover chicken.
The credibility manipulation was operationalized by either (1) "city public health officials" or (2) "unconfirmed reports" as the source of the information. The high credibility construct was written in a manner suggesting that the scenario was fact, whereas the low credibility suggested that the report was an unsubstantiated rumor.
Historical performance was defined as (1) the presence or (2) an absence of similar incidents having occurred to the target firm. The manipulation was operationalized in the "isolated" scenario by reporting the poisoning was "an isolated incident"; in the "chronic" scenario by stating "similar incidents have been reported in other cities".
Target firm responses fell into three categories: (1) no response from the firm, (2) a denial response, and (3) a redress response. In the denial response tactic the target firm refused to accept any responsibility for the incident, to the point of implying that the reported sicknesses might not have even occurred. Under the redress response tactic the target firm made a concerted effort to remedy any potential problems and provided informational brochures to consumers regarding the safe handling of poultry products.
Scales were developed to measure subjects' attitudes toward the chicken franchise's locations, promotional efforts and an overall evaluation. In addition, an intent to purchase measure was developed. The measures for franchise locations and promotional efforts were included as checks for demand artifacts. The overall evaluation and purchase intention measures were utilized as dependent variables in subsequent analysis.
The attitude measures consisted of seven point semantic differential scales using polar terms germane to the individual construct. The polar adjectives were adopted from previous research (Osgood, Suci, and Tannenbaum 1957) and have been found to display high levels of reliability. An effort was made to select terms relevant to the construct being measured as well as covering the three dimensions of attitude - activity, evaluation, and potency. Intent to purchase was assessed directly, but phrased in a context suited to the sample. After purification in pretesting, the scales utilized in the present study displayed coefficient alpha estimates ranging from 0.78 to 0.90.
The experiment was administered in classrooms on the university campus. The subjects were introduced to a research assistant who provided general information regarding the task they were about to perform, but not the particular issue under investigation. The subjects were instructed to read the questions and information carefully, proceed through the test instrument in the sequence in which it was presented and to answer each question as accurately as possible at that time.
Questionnaires were constructed to gather the subject's attitude assessments and intent to purchase at two different points - before and after exposure to the experimental stimuli. The pretest measures used for analysis were embedded in a number of questions regarding fast food franchises. All subjects initially responded to identical instruments. Each subject then read a one page negative publicity/firm response scenario determined by experimental group membership. Following the suggestion of Wetzel (1977, p. 89), subjects responded to the dependents measures directly after exposure to the experimental scenarios. After completion of the attitude measures, suggestions of what the firm should have done to address the incident were solicited.
After completion of testing, the subjects were debriefed. Of primary concern was insuring that the subjects recognized the hypothetical nature of the scenarios and that the particular franchise selected was utilized solely because it was a well known franchise capable of providing a base of reference for the study. To accomplish this, both a written disclaimer and a verbal explanation were provided.
In experimental designs, subjects are exposed to various conditions and expected to react differently to those conditions. To insure the internal validity of this experiment, manipulations were tested and revised during pretesting (Wetzel 1977). In addition, as a strong test of manipulations, checks were included as the last questions in the main experiment (Perdue and Summers 1986, p. 320). The measures asked the respondents if: (1) the target firm was solely responsible for the incident (locus of responsibility); (2) the incident was reported by a reliable source (source credibility); and (3) the target firm had experienced similar problems (historical performance).
To examine the manipulations the subjects were classified into high and low groups for each of the manipulations and then tested for a difference in the mean response on the three check questions. With this approach, both the effectiveness of the manipulations and any potential confounding effects between manipulations can be tested (Wetzel 1977, p.88). In each case, a significant difference was found between mean scores on the appropriate measure, but not the others, suggesting that the manipulations were effective and independent. The results are presented in Table 1.
A second concern in consumer research is the impact of demand artifacts on the validity of the experiment (Sawyer 1975). In the present study, the possibility of subjects attempting to respond in a "socially desirable" manner is particularly relevant. While no fool proof method exists for detecting or eliminating demand artifacts, two specific steps were taken to minimize the occurrence in the study. First, relevant measures taken before exposure to the experimental stimuli were disguised by their inclusion with several distracter items. Second, two firm-related measures were included that were not expected to be changed by the manipulations in an attempt to detect yea saying. Analysis of these measures, reported in Table 2, suggests demand artifacts are not a major problem. The only significant effect found in this analysis pertains to the impact of response type on attitude toward a firm's promotion (p=.03). Although this could be attributed to a demand effect, it is quite plausible that this effect is due to subject perceptions of response style as part of a firm's promotional mix.
where 1 represents the grand mean, ai represents the ith level of locus, bj the jth level of history, dk the kth level of credibility, P1 the 1th level of response, and Sn a blocking (within-subject) factor accounting for the two responses on each subject. The results of this analysis are shown in Table 3.
As shown in Table 3, the partial F statistics for the within subject factor are highly significant for both response measures (attitude and purchase intention). This result supports the ability of the experimental scenario to affect the dependent variables. In terms of the present study, this result, along with analysis of the group means, is interpreted as evidence of a tendency among respondents to lower their attitudes and purchase intentions toward the target firm. Furthermore, this effect holds regardless of the combination of experimental treatments they were exposed to.
In addition, Table 3 shows partial F values for each experimental treatment while controlling for both the within-subject factor and all possible two and three-way interactions. Since no interaction effects were hypothesized or found significant at a p-level of .10, they were omitted from the table. Each hypothesis was examined by analyzing these partial F values.
Locus of Responsibility. H1 predicted that both attitudes and purchase intentions toward the firm would be relatively lower when the locus of responsibility was directed toward the store rather than the customer. The partial F values shown in Table 3 support this hypothesis for the attitude measure (p < .011) while showing only marginal support when using intentions as a response (p < .075).
Source Credibility. H2 predicted lower source credibility would be associated with relatively higher attitudes and purchase intentions. The partial F values for this effect support H2 for attitudes (p < .0001), but fail to support it using intentions as a dependent measure (p < .296).
Performance History. H3 predicted that attitudes and intentions would be significantly effected when a firm is portrayed as having chronic problems with product failures as opposed to having no such previous record. Again, the F-value supports the hypothesis with regard to lower attitudes under conditions of chronic product failures (p < .02); however, no significant effect is shown on purchase intentions (p < .524).
Response Tactic. H4 hypothesized attitudes and purchase intentions would vary according to which response level a subject was exposed (no response, redress, denial). Again, the partial F values support this hypothesis for the attitude measure (p < .027) while failing to support it for purchase intentions (p < .236). Analysis of the cell means indicates the significant effect observed on respondent attitudes was due mainly to higher mean scores on the redress response category compared to both denial and no response conditions, which displayed virtually identical scores.
In sum, each of the research hypotheses were clearly supported with respect to the impact of experimental factors on attitudes toward a firm suffering from exposure to negative public publicity. The picture is not as clear with regard to the impact of locus, credibility, history, and response on purchase intentions. While only the hypothesized effect of locus on intentions reached even a marginal level of significance, a comparison of cell means of purchase intentions showed that all observed effects were in the hypothesized direction. This is consistent with a significant reduction in overall purchase intention scores between the pre-exposure and post-exposure conditions mentioned above (within-subjects). However, despite evidence demonstrating lower purchase intentions based on exposure to negative public publicity, the individual effects of each experimental factor on intentions cannot be confidently supported based on these data.
Qualitative Data. Respondents were given an opportunity to comment on the incident reported after completing the questionnaire. The majority of subjects offered suggestions on how the target firm should have handled the negative publicity episode.
Honesty was the most common term utilized by subjects who read the denial and no response scenarios. Over half of the respondents in these conditions (56%) included some suggestion that the target deal with the situation honestly. In general, subjects wanted the target firm to face the problem rather than avoid it, and several suggested that an independent agency should investigate the incident. Offering information to consumers on proper handling of poultry products was also suggested by eight respondents. In addition, six subjects wanted punitive action taken against the firm or employee responsible (five subjects recommended publicly announcing that an employee of the firm was fired over the incident). Only two respondents stated the incident was handled properly by a denial tactic.
Subjects exposed to the redress response tactic displayed overall satisfaction with the target's actions. Many respondents (63%) stated the firm had "handled the situation well". In particular, subjects cited the target's willingness to provide informational brochures as a very positive action. No mention was made of punitive action, suggesting a more positive approach to the incident satisfies consumers' "call for blood" to rectify the problem.
The results of this experiment indicate source credibility and firm responsibility, history, and response tactic are important situational factors leading to changes in consumer attitudes based on a negative publicity episode. In addition, while purchase intentions were significantly lowered by experimental stimuli, individual relationships hypothesized between situational factors and purchase intentions were not confirmed.
Although not hypothesized, a significant interaction among situational variables would not have been surprising. In particular, a locus by history interaction would correspond to the locus by stability interaction found in Folkes' (1984) study of consumer reactions to product failure. The differing results between Folkes' work and this study may be attributed to slightly different dependent measures, experimental settings and operationalization of manipulations. The main effects, however, do further corroborate findings reported by Folkes.
From a pragmatic viewpoint, it appears target firms have little to lose by taking a proactive approach toward negative publicity. One could argue denial of a rumor might have either a positive effect by persuading consumers that it is indeed untrue, or a negative impact be serving to legitimatize the charges. The results of the study, however, indicate denial produces similar results to ignoring the event entirely. On the other hand, a redress approach to negative publicity appears to help restore firm image regardless of the situational factors. An admission of responsibility may not be necessary, but taking a proactive consumer oriented approach pays dividends.
While certainly no surprise, the significance of the history manipulation reinforces the importance of maintaining a strong corporate image. Knowledge of previous problems or a poor reputation will negatively influence consumer reactions to current incidents. Therefore confronting today's negative publicity in a positive and timely manner should not only benefit accused firms immediately, but also provide insulation against whatever tomorrow might bring.
This area of academic research holds substantial future promise. While this study is somewhat limited by the wide arrange of phenomena addressed, it does provide an impetus for further, and more in-depth, investigations of each of the effects operationalized through experimental manipulations. Although further theoretical development and empirical verification are needed, the present study illustrates these manipulations are capable of significantly altering consumers' attitude ratings. The findings compliment and support the earlier work of Tybout, Calder and Sternthal (1981). Additional experimental studies with larger and more generalizable samples would also be valuable. In addition, a "vulture approach" (laying in wait for a negative publicity episode to occur) seems useful, if not efficient, approach to conducting field studies of negative publicity which may provide effects applications of relationships explored here.

Website Design - You Only Get One Chance To Make A First Impression.
Customers make split-second judgments about your business every single day. From your branding and logo to the product you sell, your clients will use the information available to them to make a snap decision. While some things simply cannot be helped, your business website isn’t one of them. Rather than slapping something together on the cheap and calling it a done deal, it’s essential to approach your site’s development from a marketing point of view.
Ready to get started? Use the following tips to make a great first impression on your site visitors.
User experience, often shortened UX, is a key component of a successful website. UX encompasses a number of different elements, including your branding, marketing, and overall usability of the site. In most cases, partnering with a trusted web development firm is the smartest option for creating an appealing site that makes the right impression on your customers.
Remember, a poor site won’t merely cause frustration for your customers, but it could send them in droves to your competitors. A poorly designed site shows a lack of appropriate customer care and could convince would-be clients that you’re irrelevant or out of touch. Don’t play around with bad design—get things in order from the moment you purchase your domain.
The mobile web has witnessed an incredible period of growth over the last decade, as consumers flock to smartphones and tablets to access the internet. Responsive website design plays an important role in ensuring every visitor receives the same positive browsing experience. If your site is only optimized for desktop users, you could be missing out on a huge segment of your target audience. An estimated 79% of smartphone users search for local businesses via their mobile devices, which should be more than convincing if you’re still in two minds about investing in responsive design.
Cohesive, consistent branding falls under the umbrella of Marketing 101, but a surprising number of small business owners ignore this key principle. Simple discrepancies in your color scheme, logos, and marketing materials could confuse your clients and cause them to lose trust in your brand. Treat your website as an extension of your marketing materials, and apply the same branding across your physical products, ads, and site. This builds credibility for your business and keeps your message on point.
As the old saying goes, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Don’t leave your business’ success up to chance, but instead invest in the right tools to build a strong foundation for your company. A well-designed, thoughtful website serves as the first point of contact for reaching many of your customers. By investing the time and resources to ensure the site effectively converts, you’ll avoid lost sales and keep your company on the path to a healthy future.

While meatpacking and poultry workers have to deal with crippling work speeds every day that cause high rates of devastating and permanent injuries, they also suffer other abuses and indignities at work which undermine their safety and health.
One of the most common issues that workers consistently point to as a serious safety risk is that employers routinely deny workers access to use the bathroom. These denials come at the great expense of their safety and the sanitary conditions within plants that prepare our food.
Today, Oxfam America released a report – No Relief – in which they and other organizations conducted dozens of interviews with current and former poultry workers. The report documents how the demanding speed of work dictates every facet of work in plants, including how often workers are allowed to use the bathroom.
This focus on production speed at all costs has resulted in disturbing and systemic practices in plants, in which supervisors regularly deny bathroom breaks to workers, create time limits for bathroom use, threaten disciplinary action for taking too long to use the restroom, harass and yell at workers who ask to use the bathroom, and, in one case, charge money for workers who use the bathroom.
In order to deal with these dehumanizing conditions, some workers are forced to wear adult diapers or restrict their intake of food and drink. The exceptional obstacles placed before workers to use the bathroom also produces serious health risks, such as urinary tract infections and kidney damage.

This month has been filled with learning new things. At the beginning of the month I joined The Magic Box, an online art course and community that has proved to be an excellent resource not only with the courses but the attention and true critiques of my work in progress from fellow classmates. Hers is my first homework assignment. The purpose was to practice a new technique of coloring, creating forms with color and not brushes, and to create color comps before beginning your art project, planning out to minimize the problems later. We were asked to start by selecting a master painting and pair it with an animal. Here is my "Fox in Kimono".
My reference, “Yamatori” by Alfred Stevens, and very first sketch.
After receiving feedback I modified the paw, gave her hair and then I began the process of coloring. The assignment was to create 4 “color comps”. Working with your design before diving in with a brush allows you to plan and process your idea so that the finished work is much more intentional and thought out. It’s something that I intend to do much more of in the future.
Top left is the original colors from my reference painting and the following three were inspired from movies or photographs. The first color pallet (top right) from a photo of a purplish ocean at sunset, bottom left was from the movie “Oblivion” and the one beside it, taken from “Memoirs of a Geisha”.
Along with techniques to creating art I've been gathering a lot of ideas about creating, thoughts on what it means to be an artist. Here is what I've been learning, a few tips and thoughts.
Creating art takes dedication. The craft isn't something I can take casually anymore, not if I truly want to improve. It's more then passion or creativity. It's practice and perseverance. A stubbornness to keep going and never stop.
Create for myself. I recently met with a souvenir shop owner to see if they would be interested in selling some of my photography. This was a first for me since moving here to Japan. We spoke and I quickly gathered that my initial impression was incorrect and that they were not looking for another photographer to display work of. I was frustrated as I could see that my work was different than the current photographer displayed there, and frustrated to hear that my artistic photographs didn't sell well. She suggested that I "get my camera out" and start shooting infrared photography of the area. It was then that I had a choice, to cater to her specific clients and create new work or to keep creating for myself and you, my audience. It wasn't an easy choice and one that we all have to make. My personality is one that I feel an immediate need to please or cater to someone else's needs and it drains me. Saying "no" and sticking to what I've found truly makes me happy, what energizes me was a conscious choice. That doesn't mean that in time I may pick up the D70 and shoot infrared, but it does mean that when I do it will be on my own time and with my own vision.
Be accepting of critique. This follows right along with my above example. It's very healthy to learn to receive, and give, constructive criticism without getting your feelings hurt. I also think it takes a bit of talent to sort through the mediocre comments and accept some of the hard truths that maybe your work really isn't "there" yet. It is also just as important, when starting out, to find a safe and trusted environment to receive such critiques, a classroom environment or place like Chris Oatley's Magic Box community, for example. Don't give critique if it isn't asked for.Enough said. Don't do it.
References are essential to learning. I used to think that looking at several images to see what an unfamiliar animal or environment looked like felt a bit like cheating. Somehow I was supposed to conjure up these things without really knowing or understanding what they were and how they worked. I was so wrong. I love using references when I work and knowing that other, very very good artists and professionals use them as well has really allowed me to value references for what they are, tools to train and create. When I refer to references I'm referring to photographs, life and yes, even other artist's work. I think Will's video describes my thoughts perfectly.
My references for my “Fox in a Kimono” project.
A personal project, basic value studies & composition from photographs.
Bad drawings are ok. In fact they're good. You don't have to show the world them. They're yours to burn or keep and laugh about down the road. I didn't know this or take it to heart and there was always pressure to finish or correct a drawing. Leave it be and move on.

Former Penn State offensive lineman Adam Gress passed away Thursday.
The details surrounding his death are still emerging, but according to several reports Gress never recovered from a fall.
In addition to being a favorite among his teammates, Gress also served in a leadership role for the Penn State Chapter of Uplifting Athletes for his final two seasons.
“Adam will be missed but his legacy will live strong through the lives he impacted,” said Uplifting Athletes Chapter Manager Brett Brackett, who knew Gress as a teammate and friend.
Gress, who was 26, graduated from Penn State with a degree in telecommunications and journalism before giving the NFL a shot in 2014 with the New York Giants.
A native of Pittsburgh, Gress was scheduled to marry his longtime girlfriend Angela Torchia this summer. He was working as a construction site manager in the Pittsburgh area at the time of his death.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Gress family.

Start off by peeling the carrots with a peeler. Take the thyme of the twigs, cut the chilli pepper finely and throw away the seeds. Add honey, Il Terzo olive oil, chilli pepper, a cup of water and a sprinkle of salt in a low pan and bring the mixture to a boil with the carrots. Let it boil gently until the water evaporates, the cooking turns into stewing and the carrots start frying softly. Try if the carrots are done and covered by a fragant and sticky layer. Can be served nicely with a pork- or lamb chop.

I am venturing into another territory, show buying! What is show buying? It is when a theater company sells a show to people called show buyers. Show buyers are now in charge of selling tickets for the show they bought.
For my first foray, my friends and I are selling tickets for the APRIL 27 (Saturday at 8 PM) show of The Full Monty at RCBC Theater! A lot of people have the misconception that the play is all about skin and stripping. On the contrary, the play has heart, drama, laughter and great music. The play won a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music and was nominated in 8 categories at the Tonys.
The Philippine production is produced by Viva Atlantis (a partnership between 2 giants: Viva Entertainment and Atlantis Productions). Directing the men who will “let it go” is seasoned director Chari Arespacochaga. Oh yes the men! It stars Mark Bautista, Arnell Ignacio, Marco Sison, Jamie Wilson, OJ Mariano, and Nino Alejandro with Ima Castro, Sitti and Ciara Sotto joining the cast.
It’s bound to be a great show! So please buy your tickets already!
For tickets, feel free to get in touch with us: 0917-537-3040 (Tin), 0917-861-7978 (Ianne), 0929-618-1615 (Rica), or email fullmontyapril27@gmail.com. I would really appreciate it if you guys could come, support this venture and please spread the word.

Were there really a lion and tiger loose on the west end? Yes there was! Police had to shoot one; I hear the other one is pretty hungry!
Were there cows on the heli-pad? Yes there were! Three! Dead from the storm.
Was there great loss of life on the island due to the storm? No, thank the Lord! There were a couple of tragedies and the dead of a couple of folks in hospice care.
How about Boliver? Don't know! Still awaiting some information.
Is there widespread looting and shootin'? Definitely NOT. Good coverage by the militia and local police. This is Texas! Guns galore. City officials are working night and day still!

Snow on the ground discouraged many spectators from attending the ceremony at the Capitol. Congressman Garfield had been nominated on his party's 36th ballot at the convention; and he had won the popular vote by a slim margin. The former Civil War general was administered the oath of office by Chief Justice Morrison Waite on the snow-covered East Portico of the Capitol. In the parade and the inaugural ball later that day, John Philip Sousa led the Marine Corps band. The ball was held at the Smithsonian Institution's new National Museum (now the Arts and Industries Building).
WE stand to-day upon an eminence which overlooks a hundred years of national life—a century crowded with perils, but crowned with the triumphs of liberty and law. Before continuing the onward march let us pause on this height for a moment to strengthen our faith and renew our hope by a glance at the pathway along which our people have traveled.
It is now three days more than a hundred years since the adoption of the first written constitution of the United States—the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union. The new Republic was then beset with danger on every hand. It had not conquered a place in the family of nations. The decisive battle of the war for independence, whose centennial anniversary will soon be gratefully celebrated at Yorktown, had not yet been fought. The colonists were struggling not only against the armies of a great nation, but against the settled opinions of mankind; for the world did not then believe that the supreme authority of government could be safely intrusted to the guardianship of the people themselves.
The supremacy of the nation and its laws should be no longer a subject of debate. That discussion, which for half a century threatened the existence of the Union, was closed at last in the high court of war by a decree from which there is no appeal—that the Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof are and shall continue to be the supreme law of the land, binding alike upon the States and the people. This decree does not disturb the autonomy of the States nor interfere with any of their necessary rights of local self-government, but it does fix and establish the permanent supremacy of the Union.

The survival of cricket in a country where soccer is everything can be attributed to the likes of Brisbane Archbishop Mark Coleridge and other cricketers at the Vatican. Source: The Weekend Australian.
The young Mark Coleridge was preparing to take the field in a cricket match in a park surrounding Rome’s picturesque Villa Doria Pamphili in the 1980s when a bemused local approached.
It was not an entirely surprising reaction. Cricket was virtually unknown in Italy at the time, having been outlawed by Benito Mussolini before World War II, as it was considered to be inextricably connected with England.
“There was always a bit of a crowd stopping to watch us playing,” Archbishop Coleridge said.
Nonetheless, there was one place in Rome where Mussolini could not entirely exert his power: the Vatican.
“Religious cricket” was still played there and in Catholic seminaries and monasteries by British, Australian and South African members of the Church, says Simone Gambino, president of the Italian Cricket Federation.
Arthur Hinsley, who became Archbishop of Westminster in 1935, is credited with keeping the flame of the game alive. After arriving at the Vatican in 1917 as Rector of the Venerable English College in Rome, he bought land that was adapted as a cricket pitch.
The game survived and slowly emerged in post-war Italy, with members of the Church joining local teams, alongside English-speaking expats, and, increasingly, the “new Italians” from Sri Lanka, India and other parts of the subcontinent.
And according to Mr Gambino, Archbishop Coleridge — an opening batsman who also bowled right-arm orthodox spin — was one of the best players in Italy in the 1980s.

Shortage of tech content available? We think not.
In an age where a single search can result in millions of hits, it can be difficult to decide which sites offer the most relevant information for your queries. Summit was interested to discover, out of all the options, what types of content IT pros are currently most engaged with. Check out our infographic with data from more than 650 responses to see the tech content IT pros really want to see.
Fun fact: Company presidents and CIOs enjoy reading humorous/lighthearted content even more than product comparisons and management information. They also report reading content much more often than the average – 62% report reading at least once a day compared to just 33% of the sample overall.

PASVALYS – Pieno zvaigzdes struggled to cope with Jurmala/Fenikss for two quarters but let everything out after halftime and coasted to a lopsided 95-69 (19-18; 16-18; 32-17; 28-16) victory in the Group A matchup on Wednesday evening.
The victory allowed the Lithuanians to stay atop of the group with 8 victories in ten games, while Jurmala are on the other side of the table with a 3-7 record.
It was an intense initial twenty minutes, as the lead kept on changing hands. After the first quarter, Pieno zvaigzdes could boast merely with a single-point lead and after the neck-to-neck second quarter, the same could be said about the Latvians.
However, the nail-biting match-up was decided in the third quarter, which was won by the home side 32-17.
As if that was not enough, the Lithuanians dominated in the final quarter too, as they amassed a 26-point lead.
Benjamin Brust was impressive for the winning side with 20 points, 4 rebounds and 4 steals. Michael Dixon Jr. and Laimonas Kisielius were also in the double-digit scoring range with 14 points apiece, while the prior also had 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Aidas Viskontas added 13 points, while Evaldas Kairys finished the game with 10.
For Jurmala/Fenikss there were only two players with more than ten points. Ilja Gromovs had 12 points and 8 rebounds, while Martins Laksa chipped in with 11. Ervins Jonats had 9 points, while Edgars Jeromanovs and Arturs Ausejs ended up scoring 8.

If you're playing more and more with Group Policy, and I know I am, you'll probably come across an Auditing Policy for the domain controller.
Why did we do this? Well, you'll have to read my long winded previous post on Error 800423f2. If you look at the bottom of that post, you'll notice how Directory Service Auditing must be disabled. Well, this is how it's disabled. Removing this policy will probably result in a much higher failure rate on your backups.

It’s the weekend!! What’s even better about this weekend is we have no kids. Chase and Ashton are off to Falcon Lake with Chad’s parents and my parents are taking Hudson out to Great Woods campground. They are spending some quality time with their grandparents while Chad and I get a nice little break. It’s also our 9 year wedding anniversary next week so we will celebrate Saturday and have a date night, perhaps dinner and drinks.
Seeing how we don’t have any kids I decided last minute to sign up for a fitness theory course. I’m pretty pumped but extremely nervous. I’m thrilled to be learning and growing in the health and fitness industry so I can start helping women become better versions of themselves. Unfortunately I’m not what the world would call the “best student’. I’m the talkative one that they refer to as “chatty Cathy”. My grade 12 math teacher told me once that “I should get a job where I could talk all day”. Good thing my kids don’t tell me to stop talking. ;P It wasn’t very nice but I guess it was accurate. I wouldn’t get very far sitting alone at a desk all day having no one to talk to. I would go a bit nutty. That’s why I love chatting with all of you.
Hey all! I’m a little late on posting this week as I’ve had a hard time getting back into the swing of things. This past weekend Chad and I went to our friends cabin up on Shoal lake, Ontario. It was great to spend some time with my friends. We went with two other couples that I have know since high school. My parents and Chad’s parents took turns watching the boys so we could enjoy a kid free weekend. I’ve been away from the boys for an extended period but this is the first time in a while for Chad. He has been working a lot lately and it was the perfect opportunity for us to reconnect.
Have you ever wondered how to make protein pancakes? Pancakes are a staple in our house on the weekends. The kids love them and so do I. But in all honesty I don’t like having the prepackaged pancakes you can buy at the store. It always leaves me feeling sluggish and a tad guilty. So I set out to find a healthier version that I could make in a flash with ingredients I have on hand. It took me a while to perfect the pancakes but I think I finally nailed it.

"From the time Rochel U. Berman's older son, Josh, was 15, he knew he wanted to live in Israel. After college, he fulfilled his dream and has been living there for the past 20 years. That means Berman has only been able to see her son, daughter-in-law and four grandchildren intermittently and for brief periods. Initially, being so far away filled Berman with melancholy. That was until she decided that she was going to do everything possible to stay connected. Berman's experiences have inspired her to write Oceans Apart: A Guide to Maintaining Family Ties at a Distance, a book designed to aid immigrants and their children, international students and those on overseas assignments, as well as their families and relatives back home. In writing the book, Berman, who holds a Master's in social work and has advised families on nurturing relationships from afar, draws on her own experiences as well as interviews she conducted with 70 people from 25 countries. She offers a wealth of anecdotes and practical advice while exploring such issues as getting to know a child's spouse from a distance, planning visits that minimize tension and revitalize relationships, dealing with a parent's illness or sudden death when you are far away, creative uses of technology for keeping in touch between visits and maintaining ties with grandchildren. One of her most successful strategies for the latter is to have her grandchildren visit alone or with one sibling. This has been, she says, a wonderful bonding experience. When her grandson Binyamin visited her and his grandfather at their home in Boca Raton, for example, she involved him in the advance planning. From a list she prepared for him, he selected the outings and projects that he wanted to take part in. She even encouraged him to keep a written record of his experiences with accompanying photos. This turned into Binyamin in Boca, a 28-page book that he and his grandparents have enjoyed long after his return to Israel. This visit created bonds and developed mutual understanding that would not have been possible in any other setting, Berman writes, adding that it was a big victory for all of us."
"Imagine your star pupil has just arrived in Japan for a relocation assignment. The international experience will be invaluable to the employee's development and he or she will surely be doing important work for the company overseas. In the planning and execution stages of the move, you (or your relocation provider) probably covered everything from home sales and Japanese culture to spousal-assistance programs. With relocation budgets tight these days, there is little room for error. So why not go one step further and help ensure that expats are prepared to maintain other family relationships from a distance - like connections with parents, grown children, cousins, or even nieces and nephews? Rochel Berman - author of the book Oceans Apart: A Guide to Maintaining Family Ties at a Distance and mother of a son who has lived in Israel for more than 20 years - says companies need to do more on this front. First and foremost, they should make sure relocated employees use web-cam technology such as Skype, with its free video chat, but realize its limitations. "Skype does help, but you can't hug a Skype and you can't hug a jpeg," she says. She says companies should set up chat rooms on their internet sites so families in similar positions can exchange ideas about how they are sustaining relationships at a distance. Some of the richer relocation packages include one or two home visits per year for the relocating employee (and possibly the whole family).
"With aliyah and extended stays in Israel on the upswing, as well as international assignments for professional advancement becoming common, members of our community will have much use for the practical wisdom amassed in this advice-packed book. The author, a social worker, came to her subject because of the aliyah of her older son and the subsequent birth of her grandchildren living "oceans apart," yet she has taken her topic of maintaining loving family ties at a distance and universalized it. Her subjects include recent and long-term immigrants to the United States, American professionals who choose to live in Europe, Chabad emissaries who devote themselves to far-flung Jewish communities, and a variety of olim. All must deal with adjusting to cultural differences, coping with parental illness and death at a distance, and trying to maintain traditions and closeness despite separation from their family of origin.
Given twenty-first-century technologies such as e-mail and Skype, many families manage to communicate frequently and in a variety of media, but the author points out that these are not the same as being a physical presence in a grandchild's life. She offers sensitive suggestions on how to preplan visits with distant grandchildren, deal with the tensions arising from turf issues, and extend a trip's afterglow by creating a photo album of the stay. Each chapter has a practical take-away, and the reader feels in the presence of a wise and savvy grandmother sharing her life's learning. This is a warm and helpful book for the kin-keepers among us, no matter how much distance separates us from our loved ones."

Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize: It's not just for clothes and homes anymore. Nope, even cars want to get in on the accessory action. Why not adorn the interior of your car with a colorful, handmade steering wheel cover? Not only will it bring a bit more style to an otherwise boring space, but your hands will thank you. No more grabbing a hot steering wheel in the summer and freezing your hands in the winter. Plus, it's super quick and easy to make. So, if you've been telling yourself you want to learn how to sew, then this would be a perfect first project. Triple bonus!
Measure the circumference of your steering wheel. Cut a piece of fabric that's 3/4 inch longer than that circumference measurement, and 6 inches wide.
For example, if your steering wheel has a circumference of 48 inches, then your fabric will be 48 3/4 x 6 inches.
Use a hot iron to press under 1/4 inch on both long edges. Then press under another 1/2 inch on both long edges.
Sew close to the fold to create a casing on both sides for the elastic.
Cut 2 pieces of 1/4 inch elastic that are 30 inches long. Attach a safety pin to the end of one piece of elastic.
Place the safety pin into the casing and pull the elastic through until you get to the other side. Be careful to keep the other end of the elastic from pulling into the casing. Use a straight pin to secure both ends of the elastic. Repeat on the other side with the second piece of elastic.
Sew across the ends of the elastic pieces to secure them all in place.
Fold the fabric over so the short ends are together with right sides facing in. Pin and sew in place.
Turn the cover right side out and wrap it around your steering wheel. Your road trips will never feel the same again.

Following a record setting career at TCU, Tomlinson was drafted by the San Diego Chargers with the fifth overall pick in the 2001 NFL Draft. Tomlinson is the first player from the 2001 NFL Draft and just the third former Horned Frog to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, joining Bob Lilly and Sammy Baugh.
During Tomlinson’s rookie season in 2001, he rushed for 412 yards and six touchdowns through his first four NFL games and finished the season with a total of 1,236 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns while capturing Offensive Rookie of the Year honors. Tomlinson would go on to rush for 1,000 or more yards in each of his next seven seasons in the league, joining Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Curtis Martin, Thurman Thomas, and Steven Jackson as the only players in NFL history to rush for 1,000 or more yards in their each of their first eight seasons in the NFL.
Throughout his 11-year NFL career, Tomlinson earned the reputation as a versatile threat to opposing defenses. Along with 13,684 career rushing cards, the fifth most in NFL history, Tomlinson also racked up 4,772 receiving yards on 624 catches. He also showcased his passing skills, throwing for seven career touchdowns which are the second most (behind Walter Payton) among NFL running backs since the NFL-AFL merger.
On December 28, 2003, Tomlinson rushed for a franchise-record 243 yards in a 21-14 win over the Oakland Raiders in the regular season finale. His performance marked the fourth and final game of his career in which he rushed for over 200 or more yards. The Chargers were a perfect 4-0 when Tomlinson ran for 200 or more yards.
In 2006, Tomlinson had a season for the record books. On December 10, he broke the single-season record for rushing touchdowns with his 28th touchdown of the year in a 48-20 win over the Denver Broncos to clinch the AFC West Division. Tomlinson also set the NFL single-season records for most points (186) and most total touchdowns (31) on his way to MVP honors, while leading the Chargers to a 14-2 regular season record and playoff berth.
"It was almost impossible to defend him...Because he had hands like a receiver, he had feet like a ballet dancer and had a heart like a lion -- any time that you have all of those things, you just never know what you are going to get...What made him the hardest thing to deal with was that he always kept a calm demeanor. You never could rattle him. He always stayed true to himself."
"He made everyone around him better. He was a phenomenal leader. When LT spoke, everybody listened. And he backed it up with his actions, more so than anything he could ever say."
"He inspired me because of the respect he had around the league. I think he's a great human being, and that's one of the things I really respected about him. That's how I've gone about doing things. No matter how much leeway you have, you still work the same, just like if you're a rookie. Ten years in, he was still working harder than everybody else around him."

I have a female patient 38 yo dx with hashimoto's in late adolescense. She suffered from hyperthyroidism in her early childhood and was tx with PTU until the age of 16. She was dx with hashimoto's thyroiditis after the delivery of her first chold at 23 yrs and has been on Synthroid .125 since that time. She presents with severe urticaria and angioedema X 5 months now and has seen 4 other physicians including allergists, intensivists, internal med and endocrinology. Non with an answer to date. Her labs: CBC, UA, Chem Panel - wnl. Her TSH 7.3, Thyroxine 11.6, T7 3.1, and T Uptake 26.7. Her thyroglubulin AB is 47, with a thyroid peroxidase of 710. Uric Acid 2.3, ASO <100, Rheumatoid factor <20, C-Reactive Protein <.5, sed rate 21, and a positive ANA with a titer of 1:1280. The only other positive on the panel was her thyroid microsomal AB at 367. Because they think her hives may be related to her hashimoto's, her endocrinologist has been trying to "put her thyroid asleep" by incrementally increasing her synthroid doses in an attempt to zero out her TSH. They have been working on this for 2months with what they hope to be the last increase started this week. She reports, however, that her symptoms have worsened since starting this process. Whether or not that is related to the change in dose of synthroid or simply coincidental I don't know. I am very interested in your thoughts on this. Other lab work was performed to r/o hereditary angioedema Functional C1 esterase inhibitor > 100 and total C1 esterase inhibitor of 11. C3 Complement is 156 and C4 - 13. She has had a negative response to all allergy tests. Other labs done by a variety of people include a positive Circulating immune complex 0 25.1 and a neg IGE. Her LH, FSH and ACTH are also WNL. She has had one of her hives Bx - pathology neg I am trying to find current case studies on the relationship of chronic urticaria and hashimoto's thyroiditis. I have found a few showing unremarkable results with increasing thyroxin doses, but heard of a case that a colleague in town tx by ablating a patients thyroid. Her hives were gone and she has remained hive free for almost 2 years now. I also read a case study from 1997 in Europe where a patient had a total thyroidectomy for the same reasons with immediate relief of urticaria and angioedema. I'm of course, very hesitent to recommend this drastic tx without more information. This patient is desparate, unable to work bcause of the debilitatin condition sheis in. Her current meds are synthroid .175, BCP's, Allegra 180mg tid, Tagamet 400mg tid, Zyrtec 10 mg bid, Atarax 50mg q4h prn. She has been on prednisone 60 mg for several weeks now with moderate relief, but can not wean off,due to the immediate return and the serious nature of these hives, covering 70 % of her body, angioedema affecting her eyes, lips, ears, larynx, throat and respiratory tract. She presents to the ER for respiratory Tx's and IV Solumedrol and/or epinephrine when things are escalating. Even on 60 mg of prednisone she is not hive free. Any input you have would be greatly appreciated by all of us involved.
Dr Anthony Weetman will provide the official answer. However in the interim I will offer some comments. Certainly there is a statistical association between these two autoimmune diseases, but the relation is quite obscure. Suppressing the thyroid with excess T4 is an interesting approach, but hyperthyroidism might well exacerbate the hives and edema. I do not think there is any basis on which one can advise for thyroidectomy as a treatment. However as a trial in a terrible problem it is reasonable, and if done, I would suggest near total thyroidectomy followed by 131-I ablation.
My understanding is that chronic urticaria has been reported to be more frequent in autoimmune thyroid disease and thyroid antibodies occur in up to 27% of patients with urticaria (J Allergy Clin Immunol 1989 84 66-71) . There is no specific feature of skin biopsy in patients with or without thyroid disease however and the urticaria does not improve with thyroxine (J Clin Immunol 2001 21 335-346). I have no extensive personal experience but these findings had always made me think the association was simply one between 2 immunologically mediated diseases, and not a direct cause and effect as the correspondent is proposing. If it is simply an association, then thyroidectomy would be no more successful or logical than undertaking the same thing for Addison's disease, say, when it is associated with autoimmune hypothyroidism. It certainly makes sense to get this patient's TSH normal on first principles but I doubt that further approaches to the thyroid will help and total thyroidectomy would be difficult in a patient with long standing hypothyroidism (subtotal thyroidectomy would have no theoretical benefit). Chronic urticaria is notoriously difficult to treat and the only other clue in this patient is the positive ANF. I am sure this must have been followed up but it would be worth repeatedly assessing for a collagen vascular disease.

In keeping with the Alliance�s tradition of producing new American musicals, the company will produce the world premiere of Ghost Brothers of Darkland County, a haunting new musical with music and lyrics by John Mellencamp and book by Stephen King, as the closing show of the Alliance Stage Series season set for spring of 2012. One of the world's most popular authors and one of America�s most honored musicians have created a riveting Southern gothic musical fraught with mystery, tragedy, and phantoms of the past, along with a roots and blues-tinged score that is sure to leave audiences asking for more. Alliance Artistic Director Susan V. Booth directs, with musical direction provided by legendary producer T Bone Burnett.
In the tiny town of Lake Belle Reve, Mississippi in 1967, a terrible tragedy took the lives of two brothers and a beautiful young girl. During the next forty years, the events of that night became the stuff of local legend. But legend is often just another word for lie. Joe McCandless knows what really happened; he saw it all. The question is whether or not he can bring himself to tell the truth in time to save his own troubled sons, and whether the ghosts left behind by an act of violence will help him � or tear the McCandless family apart forever.
I am one of your biggest fans. Before you start having Annie Wilkes nightmares, rest assured this is the last time (perhaps) I�ll cross your particular dreamscape.
However, I do have to express my (modified) disappointment with your first excursion into musical theatre, �The Ghost Brothers of Darkland County.� Yes there were some moments of shivery delight, some others of musical giddiness, and even a few of theatrical flourish. However, in overall structure and tone, it seemed to break a few too many cardinal rules of character and plot.
Since this is, in fact, an �open� letter, let me do a bit of a recap for all the readers who aren�t Stephen King. In 1967, two brothers, Andy and Jack McCandless and the young woman loved by them both meet a mysterious end, witnessed only by their 10-year-old brother, Joe. Forty years later, Joe�s sons Drake and Frank and the young woman loved by them both (or at least lusted after by both) are following a similar path. The adult Joe gathers the family at their doomed-by-destiny lake house to tell the story, hopefully to prevent history from repeating itself.
The entire story is punctuated by songs by John Mellencamp, that, on their own, are fine and dandy, but do a little too little to embellish this particular tale.
Let me start with the most obvious shortfall -- the ghosts. Would Stephen King, the popular writer of books and stories, ever create a supernatural �MacGuffin� like a set of ghosts who are this passive and who play such a small role in the actual development of the plot? These are ghosts who do nothing but stand around and �witness,� who never really interact with the 2007 characters. In a Stephen King book, they would be the creepies who crawl into Gentle Reader�s subconscious, who would make the plot pay off in unexpected, and ultimately, satisfying ways. Here, they are passive sprits who do little except watch and whine.
Along those lines, would Stephen King, the popular writer of books and stories, create a mythology as inconsistent as the �ghost rules� on display here? This is, after all, the writer who re-invented the haunted house mythos with �The Shining,� the space-time continuum with �The Langoliers,� and time-as-a-living-monster in the exquisite �11/22/63.� Here we see spiritless ghosts who, at one point, stick around because someone living has unresolved issues, at others, stick around because they themselves have unresolved issues.
I also have to ask, would Stephen King, the popular writer of books and stories, create a horror back-story with so little horror? The McCandless brothers (both generations) are less the victims of supernatural shenanigans than they are of arrested adolescence. Their story, when (finally) told, is petty and mundane, Joe�s lies and evasions unmotivated and pointless, the final apocalypse almost an afterthought.
Stephen King, the popular writer of books and stories, could easily create a story with this structure � a man gathering his family to unburden himself and lay to rest the ghosts that have haunted him his entire life. And it would work, because, on the page, a ghost story will inflame the gentle reader�s imagination, and take him on a journey into fear and darkness. The stage, however, is an entirely different animal (and it has claws). When we see a set full of folks sitting around talking, it is less a journey to the dark side than a static exercise in fore-stalling. There is little point in Joe stretching out this story for two acts, since the story itself has so little meat on its bones.
(1) Make Young Joe more an active participant in the 1967 story. His �hiding of the truth� would have more resonance if he himself caused part of the tragedy. Yes, I know things we witness at ten can resonate throughout your lifetime (I was ten when I witnessed Jack Ruby kill Lee Harvey Oswald live on TV), but passive witnesses tend to be �Meh� stage characters.
(2) Make the 1967 ghosts active participants in the 2007 story. Think how much more dramatic, more moving it would be if Frank and Drake were actually loving and supportive siblings who become alienated (and violent) because of the actions of ghost-Jack and ghost-Andy. And it would eliminate the need for �The Shape,� a clich�d and irritating character whose every line (when I could understand it) stopped the flow of the story dead in its tracks.
(3) Find some better driver for the Act One finale �Tear This Cabin Down.� It�s probably the best musical moment of the show, but it comes out of nowhere.
(4) Clean up the mythos. Stephen King, the popular writer of books and stories, would give us a �ghost culture� that is new, compelling, and, above all, consistent. Wouldn�t it be better, for example, if it were hinted that the 1967 story were driven by ghosts from an even earlier generation, or that the 2007 story affects (infects?) a future generation?
There are so many good Stephen King moments and lines here (I loved �Too late always comes too early!�) that it does disappoint when the whole thing falls even slightly flat. Violence on stage is always more effective than in the movies (though not as effective as on the page), and your climax here is creepy and spectacular, but it would be better if I could have been a bit more emotionally invested in the characters.
Yes, last night�s Opening Night audience was a thousand times more enthusiastic than I seem to be here, and, overall, I had a pretty good time watching this. I just wanted to have a better time.
Maybe you (or I) should check out some of the books on writing by this Stephen King guy. He knows what he�s talking about!
The role of a director should be to shape the authors' material for the stage. Did Susan V. Booth add anything to or subtract anything from your (limited) enjoyment of the production? My experience in seeing her directing work has been the distinct impression that she lets her collaborators loose and doesn't attempt to integrate their work into a consistent, satisfying production. Your thoughts?
I tend to have very sketchy yardsticks when it comes to discussing directing. If it's a well-known piece, is there a consistent and interesting "director's concept" that makes this production stand out from others? If its an unknown or new piecem are there obvious director "misses" (weak stage picture, bad sight lines, over-long scene changes)? Other than that, much of what I praise as good ensemble work may (in fact probably is) the result of good direction.
Creating a new musical is hard. Mr. Stephen King and Mr. John Mellencamp, the creative forces behind the new musical "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County," are undeniably masters of their respective fields and have brought their considerable talents to the Alliance stage. Creating a new production takes imagination, heart, and a working knowledge of the theatre and Ghost Brothers has 2 of these 3 things. In the program notes, Mellencamp describes his brainchild as an unorthodox musical where the songs expound upon moments rather than push the story forward, but he seemingly fails to fully realize that the roots of the musical theatre is just that�ask anyone who�s seen a production of "Camelot." This production certainly is an unorthodox one, but you can almost hear the program writers straining to come up with synonyms for �unconventional� in an effort to spin a production that is ultimately lackluster.
You would think that Ms. Susan Booth, the long-time Artistic Director of the Alliance Theatre, would bring her skill as a theatre artist and her know-how for the theatre�s sense of story structure to the production, but any attempt to do so is lost in an over-produced cluster of singing skeleton projections, rolly-polly sing-a-long texts (not a joke), and tiresome title slides that let you know�if you couldn�t figure it out on your own�that the story jumps back and forth between 1967 and 2007. Unfortunately, she wastes the talents of the ensemble and most end up becoming little more than singing set adornments. Sadly, we rarely get to see the full cast in its true might.
Not to say that the show is sloppy; indeed, the production is tight, but most of the show�s success relies on T-Bone Burnett�s excellent musical direction, the stage management�s focus, and the cast�s strength and heart to push through a story that essentially becomes schlock by the end of the two hours. Though the character of the Shape (better known as the Devil, but with sleeve tattoos and a cigar-box style guitar) is truly a force of chaos in Darkland County, he literally pushes the characters into decisions and actions that they might not make or do otherwise, which poses the question: if these characters have no real choice in the matter, then why are we watching it?
This show has been 12 years in the making, but that doesn�t mean that 12 years worth of work has been put into the script. Instead of pushing through to logical conclusions, Mr. King falls into his usual trap of having weird for weird�s sake: the story almost reaches a poignant and thoughtful climax and then tacks on a devastatingly clich�d Shakespearean ending in which nothing feels like it�s earned. Perhaps Mr. King was reminding himself of the rules of the theatre when he wrote the show (like when the Shape boorishly reminds us that if there�s a gun in Act One, it needs to be used in Act Two), but those bits come across as condescending to the audience. Perhaps neither he nor Ms. Booth have much faith in the ability of Atlanta audiences to follow along with an abstract story, but if that�s the case, then more�s the pity.
The production does reach moments of true and total engagement: the end of Act One is one of the most compelling moments this reviewer has seen on the Alliance stage, but unfortunately these moments are crammed between two hours of forgettable songs and character emoting. In the opinion of this reviewer, Mr. King and Mr. Mellencamp need to show a little bit more respect before they come in and start arbitrarily breaking the rules of a genre in which they have little to no experience. The theatre may be a playground of the mind, but the authors seem to be treating it as more of a plaything, a kind of wild and crazy experiment that comes off more as a joke to those looking for a satisfying night of theatre.
While Ghost Brothers had some technical difficulties including sound levels (the music was far too loud for the mics to carry the voices and some mics were clearly on the fritz), all in all I would say it was a successful opening. The story itself is an intriguing tale clearly by Stephen King of two brothers and a girl who were killed or committed suicide, and now the story is being set straight by their younger brother to his now adult sons and wife. The casting of most all the characters was outstanding, and the story line cohesive and fascinating. The aspect of the ensemble barely existing on the outskirts was fascinating, but distracting at first, until they joined the first group number.
The use of technology is quite interesting in this production, both being used to make the crowd scenes seem much more populated, and to enhance the nostalgic moments with old reels. They also did a throwback to Tennessee Williams by projecting the occasional subtitles or important words upon the stage at certain moments. The technological additions brought so much to the show. In addition, the scenic design was incredible. The stacked stage of "dreamland Cafe" on top of the rustic cabin where everything is centered is just breathtaking.
The music, for the most part, is very good. While it was hard to make out all of the words because of technical difficulties, all of the group numbers were fantastic. Many of the solo numbers were tedious (outside of the character "Jenna" who every time she took the stage she simply captivated the audience, and her voice always left you wanting more), and were revision to be made, I think the number of them could be cut down significantly. Also, concerning possible revisions, the "triple ending" as a colleague and I described it, seemed superfluous. Without giving too much away, the main character is recounting the story and seems to lie more than he tells the truth, and at the end, when the full truth is revealed it seems almost too much to handle. The wrap up was poignant, but the triple ending it took to get there seemed a bit much. And the final moment "wish a fish" seemed odd and out of place.
All in all, the production was a joy to watch (except what little of our view was obstructed by being on the far right side). I was fortunate enough to be close to the front where I really could be engulfed in the action, but a few of the set pieces prohibited me from seeing all the action, especially in and on the bunk beds.
The two characters, outside of Jenna, who really stuck out were the devil and "God" or the old black man who took care of the cabin. I couldn't help feeling like they played on the stereotype of Morgan Freeman always playing God by having a wisened old black man with white hair and beard be the figure of good in the entire story. And while the devil didn't always have a pleasant singing voice, it fit the character very well, and he was hilarious.

It was in the auditorium of the University of Milan that the Erasmus Prize was awarded for the first time in 1958. The award was unusual in that it was given not to an individual or an institution, but to a group: the Austrian people.
In 1958 a committee consisting of prominent Austrian politicians and the Dutch ambassador to Austria was appointed to allocate the prize funds. They decided to institute grants to Austrians studying in Europe and to foreign students in Austria. Part of the prize was allocated to the Austrian excavations at Ephesus.

Dolcezza is that place in-between Stockwell and Oval, filled with all authentic Italian goodies and serving 7Gr coffee from Italy. Have a taste of their cakes and pastries and down them with real espresso. Dolcezza is the first pasticceria in London, catering for events of all kinds.
The miniature coffee based desserts and chocolates were the stuff that impressed me. I couldn’t believe they only cost 95p each. The coffee base chocolates explores in your mouth as soon as you take a bite, a rush of ice cold espresso hits your throat. Pastry cream tasted a lot lighter then other places I’ve been. Once you pop a mignon in your mouth you can’t stop eating them.
Chiara Bergonzi vice world champion latte art put on a show-stoppingance, and expressed how some art was difficult to master. I challenged her to some 3D latte art, but she declined saying it was too difficult.
Fabio Centoni Dolcezza pastry chef showed us how to make a tiramisu in just one minute, making a sponge cake in a paper cup and pouring coffee over a slice of chocolate.
Dolcezza has two branches in London one by Bonhill and the other next door to Tesco metro at Clapham road.

The Mauritian Government’s objective to place Mauritius among the top ten most investment and business friendly locations in the world has led to a total makeover of the business and investment climate, making Mauritius a premier investment destination.
The country’s leadership has targeted the financial sector, creating a foundation for continuous and broad economic growth with Its nearly 40 Double Taxation Treaties (DTTs) and close to 40 Investment Promotion and Protection Agreements (IPPAs) with sub-Saharan jurisdictions.
Mauritius has developed a vast and solid network of preferential agreements across the globe. Investments originating in Mauritius have flowed to East Africa, Kenya, Mozambique and Nigeria and target a diverse range of industries such as hospitality, agribusiness, timber, mining and healthcare.
Mauritius now possesses one of Africa’s highest per capita incomes with an increasing supply of investment opportunities available to explore.
Mauritius offers a safe and business friendly environment and more and more investors are looking to Mauritius to structure their investment destined to the African Continent.

Cara Tangaro (left), Brad Anderson (center) and Scott Williams (right) surround their client, John Swallow, on Wednesday, Feb. 15.
Nearly a year after a jury acquitted John Swallow on a slate of criminal charges, the former Utah attorney general filed a lawsuit Tuesday evening against the state seeking reimbursement for $1.58 million in legal bills and other costs from what had been perhaps the state’s most sensational public corruption case.
Swallow is swarmed by the media after he is found not guilty Thursday, March 2, 2017 on more than a dozen felony charges. The verdict concluded a years-long bout for the embattled politician, who was accused of bribery, corruption and evidence tampering.
Hounded by news reports of scandals and federal and local investigations, Swallow resigned in late 2013 after only 11 months in office. But a state court jury last year found him innocent of charges stemming from the investigations that also ensnared Swallow’s predecessor, Mark Shurtleff, and Shurtleff’s friend and so-called fixer Tim Lawson.
Utah law says the state is on the hook for the cost of defending employees who are acquitted in criminal cases related to their positions.
But Swallow’s request that the state pay up was denied last year by the office of his successor as top cop, Sean Reyes, against whom Swallow fought a bitterly contested campaign in 2012 for the Republican Party nomination.
If he wins, Swallow said Utah taxpayers might end up paying more than the original request since he will have incurred further legal bills.
Almost a year ago, a 3rd District Court jury found Swallow not guilty of nine charges and four others had been dropped during the trial. Charges against Shurtleff were dismissed and Lawson died before his trial was scheduled to begin. The sensational federal and local investigations of the state’s top law officers ended with a dull thud and no convictions.
In May 2017, Swallow’s lead trial attorney, Scott C. Williams, filed a claim with the Attorney General’s Office for $1.5 million for Williams’ fees and those of Cara Tangaro and Brad Anderson for representation of Swallow at trial, plus the bills from previous attorneys who had represented him and for fees for experts and other expenses.
The claim said that Swallow would be willing to accept $1.3 million if the AG’s office agreed, which it did not.
Swallow and Reyes’ primary battle was particularly nasty with competing smear campaigns just before the June primary that Swallow won overwhelmingly.
After Swallow resigned, Gov. Gary Herbert appointed Reyes to fill the post. Reyes is supposed to be recused from actions in his office related to Swallow.
Swallow was tried on charges of conspiracy, evidence tampering, misuse of public money and obstruction of justice. But a jury found him not guilty on all counts in a case prosecuted by the Salt Lake District Attorney’s Office.
But Swallow points to a ruling last year in Shurtleff’s own lawsuit seeking to recoup $1.1 million in legal fees and costs. District Judge Bruce C. Lubeck ruled in September that Shurtleff wasn’t entitled to legal fees because his case was dismissed on the motion of the prosecutor, Davis County Attorney Troy Rawlings, but the judge also shot down the AG’s argument the law didn’t apply if the state employee was not in office.
Lubeck ruled that state law provides reimbursement to someone who was in office at the time of the events leading to charges.
Shurtleff’s lawsuit remains pending on a claim that Reyes violated a contract that Shurtleff had with Rawlings—who was appointed as a special assistant AG to prosecute the case—that would have allowed the charges to be dismissed on Shurtleff’s own motion and, therefore, entitle him to the state’s payment of legal fees and costs.
Story will be updated as more details become available.

The paternal grandmother of my mother, Mary Lillian Almas, was Mary Jane Lambshead, eldest child of Josiah and Mary Jane (nee Partridge) Lambshead. Mary Lambshead married James Almas. Their son, Ernest Hayes Almas, was my mother's father.
Josiah Lambshead was born 9 February, 1847, in Paignton, Devon, UK - the son of Josias Lambshead and Elizabeth Manning.
His name was spelled Josias on his birth certificate, though he was known as Josiah in Canada. The birth was registered in Totnes, Devon (District 232, Vol. IX, p. 504).
He married Mary Jane Partridge (born 4 April, 1847, Christow, Devon) on 7th April, 1868, District of Newton Abbot, Devon. Josiah's residence at the time of the marriage was 'Sandy Gate, Kingsteignton, Devon - farmlabourer.' Witnesses to the marriage were William Lambshead and Samuel Lambshead. Mary Jane was the daughter of John Partridge and Mary (Henley) Partridge.
Josiah Lambshead (Sr.) died 20 February, 1922 at Homewood Hospital, Guelph, Ontario and he was buried in Burlington at the Greenwood Cemetery. His wife, Mary Jane, died 20 October, 1931, Burlington, ON and is also buried in Greenwood Cemetery.
(Mary Jane Partridge's birth was registered at St. Thomas, Devon (Vol. X, p. 251, District 4.) Her residence at the time of her marriage was 'Whiteway, Kingsteignton, Devon.' She made her mark with an X.
In the 1851 UK Census of Christow, Devon, Mary Partridge is shown as having been born at Christow, and living with her parents at Kinnock Cottage. In the 1871 census, she is at Christow with her parents - John and Mary Partridge.
In the 1871 UK Census, Josiah is listed with his wife and wife's parents as living at Kinnick (or Kennick) Cottage, Christow, Devon. The Kennick Resevoir was completed in 1884. This may have been related to the family's making plans to come to Canada about that time.
Family story has it that Josiah Lambshead worked his way back and forth across the Atlantic, several times, on a 'cattle boat' in order to earn the complete fare for his family. (Interestingly, he worked together with James Potter who is related by way of my paternal father. James Potter married Mary Jane Willoughby, the maternal great-aunt of my father, Freeman Barber).
Josiah had moved his little family to Lancaster, close to Liverpool for this time of earning passage money. More children were born there, the family living in the village of Burnley Lane, Lancaster. The whole family moved to Canada in 1884.
1. Mary Jane Lambshead - born 21st of March, 1869 - died 22 September, 1950; wife of Newman James Almas (1866 - 1930).
2. Josiah Lambshead - born 18 July, 1872, Newton Abbot, Devon - died 25 February, 1931, Burlington, ON, Canada; buried in Greenwood Cemetery. Husband of Ina Catherine Ghent (1877 - 1932).
3. Elizabeth Ellen Lambshead - born 29 August, 1874, Devon - died 5 November, 1880, Devon. Little is known about this child.
4. John Lambshead - born 29 September, 1876, District of Burnley, Burnley Lane, Lancaster - died 31 December, 1966, Burlington, ON; buried Greenwood Cemetery, Burlington; husband of Mae Lindley (1876 - 1932) - married in 1899, Burlington.
5. Lillian Partridge Lambshead - born 24 November, 1881, Burnley Lane, Lancaster. A wonderful poet; never married.
6. James Edward Lambshead - born 30 May, 1883 - died 29 December, 1962, Burlington. He was a market gardener. On 17 April, 1912, in Burlington he married Georgina Mae Cannom.
7. Frederick Thomas Lambshead - born 21 June, 1886 in Burlington - died 26 December, 1895. He was passing a Christmas tree in his nightie and a candle caused the Christmas tree to catch fire, and he was badly burned. The death certificate indicates that he died 12 hours later, on the 26th of December, 1895.
8. Albert Nelson (Net) Lambshead - born 12 November, 1889, Burlington, ON - died 18 February, 1959 at Canso, Nova Scotia. He was a market gardener and lay pastor, one of the founders of the Associated Gospel Churches of Canada and Freeman Gospel Tabernacle, Freeman's Corners (Burlington, ON). He was married to Ethel Thompson Job (25 April, 1893, Burlington - 16 March, 1976, Burlington) on 17 December, 1913, Burlington, ON.
The 1891 Census of Halton County (Nelson Township), Ontario - Division #1, shows Josiah residing in that area. He is 44 - 'born England, Methodist, farmer.' His wife, Mary, is 44, Mary Jane is 22, son Josiah is 18, John is 14, Lily is 9, James is 7, Frederick is 4 and Nelson is 1.
Josiah and Mary Jane Lambshead at a Freeman Gospel Tabernacle Sunday School picnic - held at lakefront park, Bronte, Ontario.
Josiah was a fruit and vegetable grower, living roughly across from Job's Feed Mill, on the Plains Road, Burlington, not far from Ross Peart's.

I have used vintage lace, french braid to make her dress.
I have a few new ideas for this year. One of these is making and creating my own doll designs.
After reading a book recently about creativity I realised that I am best to put my efforts into my strengths and passions.
I am going to have these on my website ... not these little gals but others.. they will all be One Off dolls. Some will have the same face but their outfits will have quirky differences.
This little lady is named after a little girl I know who has ginger hair.
The dress is made from Lecien (available on my website) The crochet shoes, hat, flower and the pansies I made. The thread used for the pansies is a hand dyed yarn from a New Zealand hand dyer.
I am loving the diversity I give myself permission to have, in making these things that delight me!
Sweet Lisa..the dollies are so pretty. I am right there with you on the depression thing. Most people would never believe it when they see me, as I always have this smile plastered on my face. I've been to the doctor this month several times to have my meds. adjusted. I also bought a light for SADD, as my depression seems to always flare up this time of year. I hope you feel better!!
oh my those are truely beautiful dolls!
Oops I made an error in my previous post so here i go again. Keep doing what makes you happy Lisa, you are also making other people happy too! You are fortunate to have so many passions that you can follow. Enjoy!

Video products are very important because they have a higher perceived value by your prospects and customers. Also, you can charge more for videos than you typically can for ebooks, and they can be easier to sell because more people want to watch videos than read ebooks.

Here are some thoughts on the current situation at the University of South Carolina regarding fraternity recruitment. If you are unaware of the situation, you can read about it here. The University of South Carolina has suspended fraternity recruitment because of a series of alcohol-related incidents already this semester. I want to preface these thoughts by saying that I’m fully aware I am an outsider to this. I only know and can react to what I’ve read. I’m sure all sides are trying their best.
Yet, there are three truths in life: death, taxes, and that 18-22 year-olds don’t like being told what to do. I understand why the University felt they needed to act, and why they felt they needed to act swiftly. I really don’t mind the decision, since it seems as though that community needs to step back and re-assess itself.
There is also something to be said about the courage of this decision. Backlash was certain. I always admire people and organizations strong enough to put their hand up and say “enough.” I have nothing against the administrators because I’m sure they believe they are doing the right thing.
I only wish the decision had been made differently. I only wish it was the students who were the ones saying “enough.” And I think it could have been.
The students need to change their behavior. There needs to be no alcohol in the recruitment process, and the emphasis on alcohol in fraternity life needs to be diminished. Those goals are noble and need to be pursued. However, I’ve seen too many situations where the process to try and achieve goals such as these is a heavy-handed, top-down, parent-child approach. And it never seems to work.
Why are we surprised about the student reaction? Sure - some of their responses have been immature, but when people feel cornered or dismissed, they fight back. And often without logic.
According to reports, university administrators had told student leaders in the Spring that things needed to change. Fair enough. What if they had instead worked with the Fraternity Council to form a group of staff/students to develop a strategic plan for alcohol-free recruitment? In my few years working with fraternities and sororities, I haven’t really seen the Dean Wormer approach of “shape up or else” work very well. Although it is used extensively.
Again, this doesn’t mean the university shouldn’t have acted, or set high expectations for the fraternities. But if they wanted results - if they wanted a change in behavior - those expectations could have been matched with more guidance and support.
Also, according to reports, fraternities were informed of this decision by email. Do any of us like being given hard news by impersonal means? Hosting a meeting with leaders to tell them in person would have been better. They could have given the leaders the tools to communicate the decision back to their members (even though some still wouldn’t have used them).
The students need to grow up and take ownership for this problem. They know it was there, and they’ve been asleep at the wheel. Because of that, they have deferred much of their power over to the university administrators. The Fraternity Council should be ashamed of itself for how invisible it appears to be. However, if progress in this situation is for the students to take ownership again, I’m cynical the current course of events will get us there.
I can still remember my perspective as a fraternity undergraduate. I wanted us to captain our own ship, not just ride on one that was built for us.
It seems that as Greek professionals and university administrators get further away from the undergraduate years, they become more and more amazed that the students just don’t get it. It’s like we’ve all pulled up rocking chairs on the front porch and are taking turns saying, “these kids today!” These kids today aren’t very different from kids their age across time. They will do the right thing, once they believe it’s the right thing to do. They will also respond better to their peers rather than the town elders from Footloose.
There is defiance in the DNA of fraternities that goes all the way back to our founding. This has caused the relationship between us and our host institutions to be perpetually strained. That will probably never change. However, our approach as alumni and administrators can.
It will be interesting to watch this as it goes forward. I hope to see the Fraternity Council respond as partners in this problem and take a very active role in its solution. I also hope to see them regarded as such by the university administrators.
Am I seeing this incorrectly? Feel free to comment below.
And not feel any regret.
Because I’ve done enough for now.
No one will miss me if I hole up here for a while.
I can let the couch win.
There’s nothing wrong with a lazy day.
By the vast wasteland of 600 channels.
Poker on ESPN, Jersey Shore on MTV.
And enter an alternative video game world.
I can blow things up.
I can win the World Series.
I can pretend that I’m a rock legend.
And stare out of this window.
Sit in a quiet and reflective state.
Think about what I should do.
Be lost in my thoughts.
Turn back to reality TV.
Yet, lethargy is so draining.
I can’t just sit here, I can’t just relax.
I made a decision to do more.
To be a part of a movement.
To strive to be my best self.
To do more with my life.
But there are not enough of me.
Into the weary face of a world that needs me.
I could just sit here.

Do you still think that the installed program can be easily and fully removed by the removing process in the Windows system? Do you notice that some files of the uninstalled program cannot be cleaned well on the PC? This is often the problem when people are trying to uninstall QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0, is there any way can fix this? Please look at this post.
QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0 is a program that specially created by the software developer for offering the unique and more convenience services and functions on the computer. Because of the changing requirements for the program or the poor operating situations, people often need to uninstall QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0 on the PC. But unluckily, according to many people’s experiences, the effective or complete removal of this program is more complex then they thought.
Why people often cannot uninstall QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0 with success? It is often due to the removing method you take, if you just stop the removal after uninstalling it with its own removing program or the Windows removing programs, I am afraid that there are still many associated files in installed folder and registry entries in system cannot be removed well. The standard removal is limited on cleaning the main process and those files created during the installation, but not including those created after that and its registries on the computer system.
For many third party applications in nowadays, finishing to uninstall them on with the uninstall utility in Windows system does not mean that they have been cleaned complete. As a matter of fact, you may not know that there are still many files associated to the program hiding on the computer and needed to be found and removed well. Otherwise, they will keep occupying the system space, and also affect you to install the program. This situation also often occurs when you try to remove QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0. How can find out and remove the leftovers on PC? this will be a difficult task that cannot be reached easily.
When getting a basic knowledge about the manual way to get rid of QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0 , do you wish another way which can help you simplified the removing steps but is able to remove the program thoroughly? It is certain that employing a professional third party removing tool is the most suitable and effective solution.
5.When it shows that the QuickSync Software for Siemens SL SLi S and ME 2.0 has been removed completely, please restart the computer.

I signed us up for climbing Kilimanjaro without much research or understanding of what the experience would actually be like. It was first a vague idea inspired by the story of a friend’s wife who did it for her 50th birthday. We joked about it: it’s ten more years to go for me, so there is enough time to prepare. Then we ran into a few more people who have done it and the idea seemed not that crazy. Plus, the famous snow is going to melt soon, so do we really want to wait ten years to run the risk of not seeing it? When I finally quit my job to finish writing Moving Without Shaking, the book about women expats and international careers, and chose Tanzania as my next stop expat destination to volunteer while doing the final edits, Kilimanjaro idea turned into a project in itself. My book went live on all of the global ebook stores sometime during our climb. Sitting on the beach in Zanzibar two weeks later, I pondered how similar these experiences were.
Walking through the tropical forest, with rays of sunshine coming through the trees, covered in the brightest green moth, discovering hidden waterfalls, monkeys, pimbi, and unknown bird species I was chatting with our guides from Shah Tours. The “adventure” path of the “Coca Cola” route looked like a fairly easy walk. Why do they tell you to go pole pole (slow slow)? With just a daypack, while the porters are carrying all the food, water and our gear, this is just a walk in the park. Ok, in the forest!
I am going to write my first book! Seriously sitting down to do it now! I will be an author! Telling everyone about it, sharing ideas, recruiting people to contribute their thoughts and opinions on the topic is so much fun! Research and debate are such bliss. No real writing has been done so far.
Reasonably early morning start. Change in landscape after first hour in the forest- more savannah, bushes, grass, some rocks, streams lower on water- still there are a lot of interesting things to see. Another sunny day! Who says it is the rain season? It’s just another day and a six-hour trekking adventure. May be they are right about pole pole after all. It’s getting steeper. The closer we are to Horombo huts, the colder it gets.
Started writing an outline and sketching ideas. Need some structure to get started. The first few chapters have come together well. I am afraid to run out of steam. Writing on the weekends or after work is feeling a bit more tiring than I imagined.
3 WHO SAID IT WAS CHALLENGING?
Acclimatization day! Love it! We walk up for a couple of hours, take in the new scenery. It’s mostly rocks now and very strange evergreen trees scattered throughout the alien landscape. Time to make a small tribute to the mountain gods, a monument out of a few stones, for good luck. We even ask to go a bit further than the guides originally want!
The chapters are flowing. There is enough material from interviews to fill up two books. A couple of short vacations free up enough time to spend on writing. This is really promising! I travel to meet with people who contribute to the book. Really happy to catch up. It can’t be that hard to finish and get people excited about it.
4 WHAT DID I SIGN UP FOR???
A couple of hours into the morning hike we are told that this is the LAST point where the water is collected to be carried up all the way to Kibo huts. This fairly innocent statement suddenly sounds ominous. No water! It’s getting colder. We are closer to five thousand meters. The day before we really enjoyed taking pictures with Kili’s famous Kibo peak in the background. Today, as we are approaching the base camp huts in our well-respected pole pole tempo, I suddenly realize how scary the last part looks. So where exactly is the path? Ah it’s that one, that looks completely vertical. A person is carried past us by two porters racing down. What happened? Oh, just a twisted ankle. Half an hour later, another person, incapacitated and extremely pale is carried by. We don’t ask what happened this time. Well, we can always decide not to do the last bit, right?
I will never finish this book. It’s not that I don’t have any thoughts left, it’s just there is not enough time with working 10+++ hour days in the “real” job. Is there a way out of this? If I don’t finish, I will be one of those people who always talked about writing a book but never followed through. Ugh…How much is left? More than a half! This is going to take forever. Even if I manage to finish- no one will buy it. Why have I invested so much time??? All the blogs are saying new writers like me don’t sell more than 50 copies on average. If you have a message but it reaches only 50 people, does it even count?
5 NO ONE TOLD ME IT WAS GOING TO BE THAT HARD!!!
We wake up at MIDNIGHT. There are two schools of thought as to why the final climb happens overnight. The romantic version is so that the climbers get to see the most beautiful sunset above the clouds. I am starting to believe the second one: if you saw where you were going, none of us, urbanites, would ever make it. The climb begins at 12:30 am. The first hour is the hardest thing I have ever done. The desire to stop and catch your breath every 3 minutes is deterred only by freezing cold. If you stop, the chill sets in right away. Breathing is harder and harder. The time seems to have slowed down. This will never end. Five hours later we get to the rocks. The end is nowhere near in sight. I don’t know that we are almost there. The thought of giving up is the only persistent idea I have. The headache starts. Then nausea.
Just a few chapters in the book remain. It’s easy to say, “just a few”… I come home from work after 8:00 pm, fire up my computer and stare at a page with the cursor blinking at me. The inspiration is gone. On the weekends I rewrite bits and pieces without making any real progress. My day job frustrates me to no end. I feel permanently exhausted. Writing is no fun anymore either.
6 NOTHING CAN STOP ME NOW!
Suddenly we look up and there it is, the board sign for Gilman’s point. We step up, turn around and watch the sun rise. The most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Another hour and a half later we reach the most sought after Uhuru Point. This is what FREEDOM feels like.
Thank you, TEAM, for getting us there!
Our SUCCESSFUL Kilimanjaro climb was dedicated to Give a Heart to Africa, an organization that empowers Tanzanian women through offering free classes in Business, English and vocation training.

Of all Caravaggio's paintings, this is probably the most monumental. A strictly symmetrical group is built up from the slab of stone that juts diagonally out of the background.
The painting is from the altar of the Chiesa Nuova in Rome, which is dedicated to the Pieta. The embalming of the corpse and the entombment are actually secondary to the the Mourning of Mary which is the focal point of the lamentation.
Nothing distinguished Caravaggio's history paintings more strongly from the art of the Renaissance than his refusal to portray the human individual as sublime, beautiful and heroic.
His figures are bowed, bent, cowering, reclining or stooped. The self confident and the statuesque have been replaced by humility and subjection.

This poster print started life as a mailer catalog specimen and quickly became much more under the skillful design hands of former staffer Colin Kahn. As in interesting vehicle to show off the P22 fonts, we decided to create the The P22 Periodic Table of Alphabets and Perpetual Time, Space & Color Harmonizer. The Periodic table is actually a Mac and Windows key chart, that includes a spectrum of quick reference CMYK values, while The Perpetual Time, Space & Color Harmonizer shows off a standard color wheel with spot varnish overprints in a sea of space and distance scales. The reverse side shows an abridged version of the P22 catalog printed in black and spot green metallic inks. We found this limited unfolded supply in the archive and it will be mailed to you in a tube.

As the post-recession sales expansion opportunities for the general market begin to slow down advertisers are looking to Hispanics as a critical growth audience across a multitude of product categories. And the reasons are obvious. Without Hispanic purchasing power fueling key categories, whole industries would be devastated by the loss of billions in revenue. While there is broad agreement that Hispanics are critical to the bottom line, there is less agreement on what goes into a media plan to build reach effectively among today’s diverse Hispanic community.

The country’s history can be divided into the pre-dynastic era, the dynastic era and the Western Colonial era.
In the pre-dynastic era, the area was inhabited since Paleolithic times. Some archeological sites date back several thousand years. The beginning of the Vietnamese population began in the early Bronze Age around 2000 to 1400 years BCE. Rice cultivation was later developed and the Dong Son culture was developed which was notable for its bronze drums. Many small copper mines have been found in North Vietnam.
The Hong Bang Dynasty is considered to be the first Vietnamese state, called Van Lang. In 111 BCE, the Chinese consolidated the Vietnamese into the Han Dynasty and ruled Vietnam for the next thousand years. By the early 10th century, Vietnam had gained autonomy over China by the Khuc family. In 938 CE, a Vietnamese lord Ngo Quyen defeated Chinese forces to gain independence. The Vietnamese were ruled under several dynasties.
Vietnam’s independence ended in the mid-1800s when the country was colonized by the French. The French administration imposed a Western-style of education and Christianity was introduced. A plantation economy was started to promote the export of tobacco, tea and coffee. There was increasing call for autonomy from the French who maintained control of the colonies until WWII.
In 1941, Viet Minh sought independence for Vietnam and established a provisional government in 1945. This triggered the first Indochina War, lasting until 1954. According to the Geneva Agreements, the country was divided at the 17th parallel into North and South Vietnam. It was intended to be temporary, pending an election in 1956 that never took place.

Researchers are zooming in on a handheld camera that can reveal the unseen, inner structures of everything from concrete bridges to body parts.
Remember those X-ray glasses advertised in the back of comic books? Imagine a handheld camera that can reveal the unseen, inner structures of everything from concrete bridges to body parts.
Researchers at Missouri University of Science and Technology under engineering professor Reza Zoughi have developed a patented device that can show the inner structures of objects in real time by using millimeter and microwave signals.
Potential applications include the detection of cancerous skin cells, termite damage to buildings, or concealed weapons at secure zones like airports.
The tech could also be used for finding "defects in thermal insulating materials that are found in spacecraft heat insulating foam and tiles, space habitat structures, aircraft radomes and composite-strengthened concrete bridge members," Zoughi was quoted as saying in a release.
The prototype camera has been in development for several years--check out the vid below, from 2009.
In its current form, objects have to be placed between a transmitter for the microwave radiation and a collector. It can run for several hours on a laptop-size battery.
The researchers are planning to upgrade it to a single unit that works more like a video camera, according to the university. It may eventually produce "real-time 3D or holographic images," Zoughi said.
That would be pretty nifty. Can X-ray glasses be far off?

Kastle’s highly anticipated self-titled debut album Kastle drops today, April 23, on his label Symbols Recordings. The album features Kastle’s dynamic signature sound: a forward-thinking fusion of garage, house and bass music with R&B-style melodies from Ayah Marar, JMSN and many more. Listen to three album tracks — “Things We Can Do” ft. Reva DeVito, “Red Light” ft. Ayah Marar and “Make You Stay” ft. JMSN — on his mix for Skrillex, Diplo and A-Trak’s electronic music network Potato Will Eat You here.
Featuring 15 tracks, Kastle provides soulful, bass-infused music full of ethereal atmospherics, catchy vocal melodies, garage and house-inspired rhythms, and what has become the voice of Kastle: keyboard solo, which he will take on his first ever live tour of North America this May (see dates below). With Earmilk describing “Make You Stay” ft JMSN as “smooth as silk” and “Red Light” ft. Ayah Marar seeing play on KCRW, Rinse.fm and BBC Radio 1, Kastle is set to continue elevating his unique take on electronic music to otherwordly heights.
Kastle, who recently made his Coachella debut, is the tastemaking label boss behind Symbols Recordings. Last year, his track “Stay Forever” from the eponymous EP reached the iTunes Top 10 Best Electronic Songs of 2012, and he embarked on his highly successful ‘Stay Forever’ tour across North America, and into Australia and New Zealand. Kastle has garnished strong media attention from the likes of XLR8R, Resident Advisor, URB, MTV Hive, Fact Magazine and more.

Our host this week is Suzy from Worthing Court.
Hi everyone! I'm so happy to be your host this week. I hope your holiday was a joyful one and that Santa filled your stocking with everything that you hoped for!
Now it's time to put all that stuff away. Ugh. That was a tough one for me until I figured out an easy and common sense approach to storing and organizing my decorations. Give this method a try. Next year, you'll be glad that you did.
As usual, it was so hard to select just a few links from last week's party to feature.
Kari from Thistlewood Farm has a beautiful office. She shared a tutorial for How To Build A Raised Panel Wall.
Karin from Art Is Beauty did a fabulous makeover on an $8 garage sale find.
Barb, from A Life In Balance, shared wonderful ideas for a kid-friendly New Year's Eve. I love the free printable that she created.

I go to a lot of shows here in LA, and it always bums me out when I'm not greeted at the merch table by a badass poster. I scoured my room for stubs of shows that lacked posters, and I narrowed it down to this great Dum Dum Girls/ Crocodiles double-headlining show I went to back in October of 2011 at the Troubadour.
Both bands play together often (their respective lead singers are married, after all), so I wanted to have the design work for both bands.
DDGs, as some may know, are know for their straight-faced/black-laced hot-and-we-know-it demeanor, but they can rock a good melodic punk song like the best of the boys.
Crocodiles err more on the more mettalic side and have a lot more grinding/sheen/ambience to their music, but still orbit around the same punky sun as their co-headliner.
alright so...realism isn't really my strong suit. The idea behind this one is "Pinup with chained croc". I wanted him to be yapping at the camera, but since i lack any sort of formal art education I couldn't quite get the perspective to feel right. thinking about adding some sort of texture to the background, maybe losing her guitar... colors would be pretty saturated green, black, red, ...some sort of bold face type for the band names up top..
here's the other concept. I liked the idea of hanging the girls on a mobile, voodoo doll style, over a tank of crocs. colors here would be more pastel/muted, and maybe one of the crocs would be hanging from an unfortunate member of the band. tried to work the band names into their respective spaces with the Dum Dums in children's blocks and the Crocs on a warning label. will have to mess with arrangement to make it feel top/bottom balanced, will probably try to create some negative space in the center between the two.

As I said, I just don’t understand how the trade show outboarders would get much traffic to their hotel rooms, but apparently they do, or I don’t see why this would be an issue. I’m not sure where I stand on whether or not this tactic is “legitimate”… I support “guerilla marketing” but I also believe in “playing by the rules”. I’ve included a portion of the New York Times article below in which I first read about the practice of trade show outboarding. So what do you think? Would it work? Is it legitimate?
Convention industry insiders disdainfully call them “outboarders” — those vendors who set up shop in a hotel suite near a trade show site to promote their products. Unsanctioned exhibitors were an issue last month at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, a large trade show.
The industry sees the vendors as parasites who latch onto the host convention and reap the advantages of the often-considerable resources spent on organizing the show and drawing a crowd — without paying their share of the costs.
The vendors, on the other hand, argue that they are suffering in the weak economy and that the rock-bottom rates offered by some hotels help them stretch their marketing budgets.
Caught in the middle of this tug of war are the hotels, which are increasingly being asked to keep out the interlopers.
While unsanctioned exhibits are not new, they appear to be on the rise. They became an issue at the annual Consumer Electronics Show last month in Las Vegas, one of the largest trade shows in the United States. According to technology bloggers and others attending the show, hotel security people forced some vendors to vacate suites in which they were demonstrating products.
But Mr. Oxman denied that the association had stepped up enforcement against the vendors, suggesting that the crackdown was instituted by the hotels themselves. “Our antennas are raised for people that try and circumvent the show process,” said Ron Reese, vice president of communications for Las Vegas Sands, the parent company of two official show hotels, the Palazzo Las Vegas and the Venetian Las Vegas. He said the association spent tens of millions each year promoting and producing the show, which draws 120,000 participants. Professional exhibit managers who play by the rules and pay to exhibit also resent vendors who come to town but do not exhibit on the trade show floor, he said.
Nor is the electronics association alone in its sentiments about the outside vendors. “This instance with the C.E.S. is going to raise some awareness,” said John Foster, a convention industry lawyer. Although the show took place only last month, Mr. Foster said he had already been approached by several organizers of smaller events eager to learn how they could thwart the outside exhibitors. “Whenever you get a big show that goes through an incident like this, that publicity generates a lot of interest in how to stop the problem,” he added.
The electronics association pointed to a long-standing policy prohibiting any type of consumer electronics-related events taking place in Las Vegas over the show dates. Mr. Oxman acknowledged, though, that this rule was almost impossible to enforce if vendors choose from among the many hotels in Las Vegas that do not have a contract with the association.
“Everybody does it,” said one hardware vendor who spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid speaking out publicly against the electronics association, which retaliates against vendors who run unsanctioned events by stripping them of the points a vendor can earn by exhibiting legitimately. More points translate to a better selection of show floor space for future shows. Those with no points to forfeit can be kicked out of the association.
The vendor said her company chose the Palazzo because it was inexpensive, and received a verbal assurance that its exhibit would be permitted.
What happened instead, she said, was that hotel security forced the company to dismantle its demonstrations and remove all product-marketing materials. The vendor referred to the eviction as the result of a “miscommunication.” Mr. Reese of the Sands said all guests were presented with criteria for their stay upon check-in; a prohibition on in-room exhibiting is among the rules.
Bob Buskirk, who attended the electronics show and owns a Web site, ThinkComputers, that reviews hardware and software products, said he had “never been kicked out of a hotel room or even heard of companies being kicked out.” But this January, he said, two of his meetings were disrupted when the vendors were ejected by hotel security. “From what I’ve heard anecdotally, the amount of unlicensed vendors was certainly the most it’s been in recent memory,” said Mr. Reese of the Sands.
Mr. Buskirk, who has been attending the show for five years, said that the show’s exhibits seemed to take up much less space this year. A spokeswoman for the association confirmed that the show’s size dropped to 1.4 million square feet of exhibit space.
Steven Rudner, a hospitality industry lawyer who represents hotels, countered that stipulations like those from the electronics association restrict a hotel’s ability to do business. “To switch the burden of enforcing this on a hotel seems to be completely unreasonable,” Mr. Rudner said. Some groups, he said, go so far as to try and make the hotel responsible for screening all guests to insure that no competitors book suites or meeting space that could be used for private events.
In some cases, she said, vendors who want to skirt a trade show’s policies will deliberately obscure their affiliation or their plans to run an exhibit in a suite, making enforcement even harder.
Some other trade shows have used less confrontational methods, which they say are just as effective. Megan Tanel, vice president of exhibitions and events for the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, said violations of exhibitor rules at her shows go to a committee made up of other industry members.
“It comes down to your peers, customers and competitors to decide your fate,” she said. This usually works, but when it does not, she says she tries to convince vendors it is in their best interests to be an official part of the show.
Wow. I guess it depends on what kind of products these outboarders have to show on whether they could pull it off. If it’s computer software, no problem showing that back at the room. If it’s cars or furniture or a large number of display pieces, a hotel room is pretty cramped. What do they do, ask you in and make you sit on the bed? Forget the trade show pens. If I go back to your hotel room I want beer and pizza. All of this sounds pretty unethical and sleazy to me.
So no one has a problem following some stranger back to his room to do a little “business”? Is this where the booth babes really earn their money?
I have started to see this more and more. I guess it is legitimate because people are doing it. I am not a fan of it, nor would I encourage someone to take part in this. Hotels are great for networking, but for the most part, I view my hotel experience as a sanctuary from the “hecticness” of conferences, conventions, and Trade Shows. So for someone in the room next to me trying to generate traffic, would put me off to them and their product. If I want to hang out with people or learn more about something, I will go to the lobby or the bar to engage in networking. Thanks for the post.
Well Tim already touched on the subject I was going to. Knowing nothing really about trade shows, but remembering you post on the TSB’s, I was thinking I must really be missing out.
I think you are right that companies could try to promote their “outboard” hotel room online before the show, but I think it would still be a challenge to “get the word out” to people that will be attending the show (and finding out who they even are), and also to convince attendees to leave the show and come to your hotel.

"Amid all the noise, we are getting on with the job," Prime Minister Theresa May wrote in the Sunday Telegraph.
London: Prime Minister Theresa May said on Sunday she would not be derailed from leaving the European Union, laying the groundwork for difficult meetings this week in which she will try to unite a divided cabinet behind her vision for post-Brexit Britain.
May was applauded by European Union leaders in Brussels on Friday after securing an agreement to move previously-deadlocked talks forward onto the topic of interim and long-term trading arrangements.
The progress has gone some way to easing concerns of businesses and investors who fear Britain could crash out of the bloc without an exit deal, or that May's fragile government could collapse under the pressure of delivering Brexit.
"Amid all the noise, we are getting on with the job," May wrote in the Sunday Telegraph. "My message today is very clear: we will not be derailed from this fundamental duty to deliver the democratic will of the British people."
But May can expect some difficult exchanges this week when she and senior ministers discuss the so-called "end state" of the Brexit negotiations for the first time since Britain voted to leave the EU in a referendum in June 2016.
The type of long-term relationship the country should have with the EU is a vexed question at every level in Britain, including within May's cabinet where some want to keep close ties with the EU and others want a more radical divorce from Brussels.
Mindful of the need to keep both sides happy, May has so far plotted a careful path.
May says she wants a wide-ranging free trade deal with the EU and a more outward-looking trade policy, but has largely steered clear of the more contentious issues such as whether Britain should stay aligned with EU trading rules and the future role of European courts.
Meetings expected to take place on Monday and Tuesday are likely to force those issues out into the open.
One of the key pro-Brexit voices in the cabinet, foreign minister Boris Johnson, has set out his own view ahead of the meetings, warning May that Britain must avoid becoming subordinate to the EU.
"What we need to do is something new and ambitious, which allows zero tariffs and frictionless trade but still gives us that important freedom to decide our own regulatory framework, our own laws and do things in a distinctive way in the future," he told the Sunday Times newspaper.
He said that mirroring EU laws would leave Britons asking "'What is the point of what you have achieved?' because we would have gone from a member state to a vassal state."

Boat captain to navigate the high seas!
Cook what you catch at a nearby restaurant!
Hook, Line and Sinker – Enjoy Deep Sea Fishing!
Let’s face it, there’s probably no manlier an activity than deep sea fishing. We can also agree there’s no better a time or place to enjoy it than with the lads on your stag do in Barcelona!
Breathe in that fresh sea air (great for hangovers!), hang out with the lads and experience the thrill of catching your own lunch!
The best part of the trip is that you can take your haul to a nearby restaurant, where the chefs will expertly cook it – you’ll only pay for any extra food and drinks!
The charter boats are available at flexible times for privates groups of between six and 10 people. That said, your haul will be better if you take the trip at eight or nine in the morning. If your group is a minimum of 12 people, you can take out two boats and see which group gets the biggest catch!
The boats leave from Marina Port Forum but if you would like to know details of other locations, get in touch and we can find the place that’s best for you.
We take care of insurance, licenses, bait, tackle and fuel and mooring costs, which are all included in the price.
